Paradigm Labs will be shutting down after finding that interest in decentralized finance (DeFi) came too late in the company's life cycle.

According to a blog post on Tuesday, founder and CEO Liam Kovatch said, "Our team has come to the decision that without significant product market fit and limited resources to pursue emergent opportunities, the kind of success we envisioned for Paradigm Labs is unlikely."
