The crypto sector has witnessed an interesting evolution among analytics platforms that initially delivered solid onchain SaaS solutions. Yet many operators made the pivot to token-driven models, riding the 'infofi' wave with promises of novel incentives. What followed was predictable: over-reliance on AI-generated content flooded social channels with low-quality noise, diluting authentic market discussion. Now, some are recalibrating their strategies. It's a cycle that reveals how quickly innovation can turn into distraction when financial incentives misalign with genuine utility. The question remains whether these platforms can rebuild credibility by refocusing on what made them valuable in the first place—dependable, accessible onchain data and analytics.
