Specifically, the Fantom Foundation stated:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cAndre and Anton did not \u2018terminate\u2019 25 projects. Instead, any involvement (such as user interface) in these projects was to be handed over to the existing teams, many of whom had been developing and running independently.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Moreover, the foundation explained that neither Cronje nor Nell was a core developer at Fantom and that the entity itself was not involved in creating any of the 25 projects (including, most notably, Yearn.finance) in question. It <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/defillama.com\/chain\/Fantom?currency=USD\">appears<\/a> that in part due to the pair\u2019s departure, the total value locked on Fantom has fallen to $8.27 billion from $11.26 billion on Sunday, the date of the announcement. The blockchain has processed over 200 million transactions with more than 2 million active wallets since its inception.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><template data-name=\"subscription_form\" data-type=\"defi_newsletter\"><\/template>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
