SHUTDOWN
Protocol Shutdown
Vertex wound down its Arbitrum DEX and other EVM deployments to rebuild on Ink, Kraken's Layer 2, and sunset the VRTX token.
Date
- A 2025-07-08 snapshot set eligibility for an INK airdrop to VRTX holders (1% of Ink's genesis supply).
- Treasury and unvested VRTX were to be burned, and Ink's foundation took over the Vertex team and trading stack.
- Vertex's own website and docs no longer load (checked 2026-10-10), so the dated report below is the main record.
