BREAKING: Harmony to wind down blockchain after seven years, citing escalating threats from state actors and AI agents

AI Market Summary

Harmony will sunset its L1 after seven years, citing escalating security threats from state actors and AI agents, and migrate $ONE to Ethereum via a final snapshot and airdrop of new Ethereum-based tokens to matching addresses. The shutdown undermines confidence in the chain's infrastructure, liquidity, and application layer, and creates operational, custody, and bridge/migration risks that can drive near-term dislocations in $ONE markets.
