Weekly Commentary

Pro

Week of May 21, 2026

Swaap V2 holds its B- risk grade but the vitality picture has worsened — no commits to core repos since late 2024 and a self-service exit tool released in June 2025 signal the team has shifted focus away from active V2 development. TVL is stable at ~$4.4M, spread across 10+ chains, but the D+ value grade remains unchanged: no native token means zero fee accrual for token holders. For LPs, the oracle-guided MMM still functions as designed, but the lack of ongoing development is a compounding risk factor that erodes confidence in long-term maintenance.
