Crypto project cemetery

A chronological graveyard of shut-down exchanges, lenders, chains and protocols — focused on claim status and how to reconstruct tax-relevant history when the venue is gone.

Quick answer

Use the cemetery to find shut-down venues, check claim status, and see where transaction history may still exist. Export every CSV, statement, and on-chain trace you can recover, then reconcile in crypto tax software or with a professional before filing.
