Poolin bitcoin mining pool operator files for bankruptcy

Poolin Technology, once among the largest bitcoin mining pools in the world, has filed for bankruptcy, listing more than $100 million in debts against less than $10 million in assets.The largest liability by far is the $163.7 million owed to roughly 11,700 people who had money in Poolin Wallet when the company froze withdrawals in September 2022, citing "some liquidity issues" during that year's crash. Instead of returning their bitcoin, Poolin handed them IOU tokens, which it never redeemed.Poolin was founded in Beijing in 2017 and in better days accounted for almost a fifth of the bitcoin network's hashrate.

MVMT Labs files for bankruptcy

MVMT Labs, the company behind the Movement blockchain, has filed for bankruptcy, reporting assets of between $100,001 and $500,000 against liabilities of between $1 million and $10 million. The largest unsecured claim, at more than $1.6 million, belongs to co-founder Rushi Manche — whom the company fired in May 2025 after an investigation into the MOVE token launch.Movement was an Ethereum layer-2 built on Move, the language originally developed for Facebook's dead Libra stablecoin project. It raised tens of millions, including a $38 million Series A led by Polychain in April 2024, before its December 2024 token launch went sideways. The firm opted to give an obscure market maker called Rentech control of 66 million $MOVE, or around 5% of supply, which they promptly dumped, crashing the price.The Movement blockchain will reportedly continue on under a new company called Move Industries, and pivot away from Ethereum scaling and towards stablecoin operations.

Proof of Attendance Protocol (POAP) shuts down

Proof of Attendance Protocol, or POAP, was a darling of the web3 hype cycle and supposed proof of the utility of NFTs. "Using blockchain technology, POAP tokenizes your memories, so they can last forever and be truly yours," the website gushes, presenting a solution to a problem I previously did not realize I had.The tokens were typically issued as souvenirs from crypto conferences or other events, and were supposed to function as cryptographically verifiable proof that the owner attended an event. The fact that the POAPs were tradable of course undermined this somewhat, but nevertheless the crypto world had come up a number of reasons why POAPs would be the future of event planning and digital identity and all kinds of things.Now, the project's co-founder has announced that "Unfortunately, crypto's funding cycles and distribution dynamics made it hard to build a sustainable company without cannibalizing the ethos that made POAP mean something. Building on a fragile and quickly evolving stack, in the middle of an incredible hype cycle, only added to the challenges." Tweet by Isabel Gonzalez "About the protocol" , POAP

Step App "move-to-earn" project shuts down

Step App, one of the last surviving "move-to-earn" projects from the 2022 crypto fitness fad, announced it will shut down all services on August 21. The project advertised itself as a "fitness app that pays you", and was essentially a step counter that paid crypto rewards. Users had to first buy the Step App's FITFI token to purchase an NFT representing sneakers, then were rewarded with the project's KCAL tokens for each minute they spent moving — although the number of minutes that would generate rewards were capped, often at just a few minutes, and required more NFTs to increase.Holders of the project's FITFI and KCAL tokens have two weeks to cash out, although they're not likely to recoup much. FITFI trades at fractions of a cent, and KCAL trades at $0.01 — far below its $1–$4 prices from the project's peak in 2022 and 2023. Holders of Step NFTs are likely similarly out of luck.
