Dmail Network, Leap Wallet, Intergaze, and ZeroLend have each announced shutdown plans or phased wind-downs, hitting messaging, wallet services, NFTs, and DeFi lending at the same time. The reasons differ by platform, but the pattern is clear: higher operating costs, weak revenue, thinner liquidity, security pressure, and failed funding efforts. For users, the issue is immediate. Deadlines are already set.
Dmail plans a full service wind-down starting May 15, 2026
Dmail Network said it will gradually stop all services from May 15, 2026. The team pointed to rising bandwidth, storage, and computing costs, while saying its paid model never became sustainable. It also cited weak token utility, unsuccessful financing talks, and staff departures as reasons it could no longer keep building.
The project has released an email export tool and an account deletion feature. Users can move emails to Gmail, then request deletion of emails, NFT domains, points, and linked addresses before nodes stop running. The operational window is narrow, so users need to complete those steps quickly.
Leap Wallet sunset covers apps, web products, validator operations, and Snaps
Leap Wallet set May 28, 2026 as its final date. The shutdown applies to Leap on browser and mobile, Compass Wallet, Leap WebApp, Swapfast, its Cosmos Hub validator, and Leap Cosmos Snaps.
According to the team, core wallet functions will remain available until that date. Users can still view balances, send tokens, manage staking, and export private keys or recovery phrases. Leap asked users to migrate to wallets such as Keplr, MetaMask, Phantom, or Rabby before the deadline. Anyone who delegated ATOM to Leap’s validator must redelegate to continue earning staking rewards.
Intergaze starts phased closure with a 14-day asset withdrawal window
Intergaze has also begun a phased shutdown. The NFT project said users must withdraw assets within 14 days before its bridge closes. It added that NFTs are scheduled to move to Stargaze on Cosmos Hub in late May.
To take part in that migration, users must register a Cosmos wallet address before May 1. That leaves a tighter timetable for holders and investors tied to the platform, since asset withdrawals and migration registration are separate steps with different cutoffs.
ZeroLend says low activity and shrinking liquidity made operations harder to sustain
ZeroLend, a DeFi lending protocol, said it will wind down after three years. The team blamed inactive chains, weaker liquidity, reduced oracle support, thinner margins, and a rise in attacks from hackers and scammers.
The exit process is more complicated than a simple withdrawal notice. ZeroLend said most markets are already at 0% loan-to-value, sharply limiting fresh borrowing, and urged users to withdraw funds now. It is also preparing a timelock upgrade to help recover assets stuck on illiquid chains including Manta, Zircuit, and XLayer.
Shutdowns across multiple segments put the focus on execution, not market slogans
These notices span several corners of crypto rather than one isolated category. Messaging infrastructure, wallets, NFT services, and lending protocols are all represented in the latest shutdown list. Each platform has published a different offboarding path: export data, migrate wallets, redelegate staking positions, register addresses, or pull funds before access narrows. For users, the practical task is to follow each official notice closely and complete account, key, staking, bridge, and withdrawal steps before the stated deadlines pass.
