Parsec’s Shutdown Decision and BTC Market Shift
On-chain analysis firm Parsec has decided to shut down after five years of operation. The firm stated that crypto trader flows and on-chain activities are no longer the same, quoting CEO Will Sheehan: “we got too stuck while the market went in a different direction.” Parsec’s main focuses, decentralized finance (DeFi) and NFTs, became incompatible with the sector’s new direction; the DeFi spot lending leverage mechanism didn’t function like before after FTX.
