Crypto Projects Depend on Vanity Metrics Like TVL and Fake Partnerships: Key Risks for Traders Revealed
According to @adamscochran on Twitter, many crypto projects use vanity metrics such as total value locked (TVL), fake partnerships, and reported active wallets to create a perception of progress, due to the incompatibility of 'Internet capital markets' with the real challenges faced by startups.
