Circle's acquisition of Axelar's team and infrastructure has left AXL token holders without compensation—a significant blow to community trust. With AXL down 49% from its December peak at $0.083, the project's positioning has weakened considerably. Meanwhile, LayerZero has solidified its dominance in the independent cross-chain interoperability space largely by default. The divergent outcomes raise questions about how different teams navigate the competitive landscape and whether token incentives align with actual ecosystem development.

It's the same old trap again, big projects get acquired and the community ends up suffering? I've seen through it long ago.

Damn, this AXL acquisition plan really blew up, and the holders got no compensation at all?
---
Circle's operation is really disgusting, the team got the tokens but no one is speaking up
---
49% fall... I just want to ask who the hell can catch this market
---
LayerZero's default iron-fisted rule, Axelar's mess has just made everything go flat
---
The disconnection between token incentives and ecological development has long been an open secret, and this time it's a solid proof
---
Is anyone still hoarding AXL... I'm wondering what reason there is not to dump it

The cross-chain track has never been played well, and they're all like this.

It's truly amazing, AXL holders have just been played for suckers like this, not even a dime in compensation, is this what web3 is all about, haha.

This is the reality of web3, waking up to find the project has been acquired, and the coin holders didn't even get a notice.
