Yieldwatch (WATCH) was never meant to be just another crypto coin. It was built as a tool - a simple, mobile-friendly dashboard to help people track their yield farming on Binance Smart Chain. Back in early 2021, when DeFi was exploding and users were juggling dozens of liquidity pools across PancakeSwap, BakerySwap, and Venus, Yieldwatch promised to bring it all together. No more switching between tabs. No more guessing your APY. Just one clean screen showing your deposits, rewards, and even impermanent loss - all in real time.
That promise sounded great. And for a few months, it worked. The team launched the WATCH token on February 23, 2021, as the native utility token for yieldwatch.net. It raised $800,000 in its IDO at $0.10 per token. At its peak, WATCH hit $3.62. The dashboard was fast, simple, and focused on mobile users - something almost no other DeFi tool did at the time. People loved it. Over 38,000 wallets held WATCH by January 2022.
But here’s the truth: Yieldwatch (WATCH) is no longer a working project. It’s a ghost.
Today, in October 2025, WATCH trades at around $0.017. Its market cap is just $340,000. That’s a 99.7% drop from its peak. Trading volume? Sometimes under $10 a day. Binance lists it, but only in their low-liquidity section. KuCoin doesn’t support it at all. The official Twitter account hasn’t posted since August 2022. The GitHub repo hasn’t seen a commit since December 2022. The Telegram group, once with 1,200 members, now has three active users.
What WATCH was designed to do
Yieldwatch wasn’t a coin you bought to flip. It was meant to be a key to access a dashboard. You’d hold WATCH to unlock features like real-time APY tracking across BSC protocols. The idea was simple: if you were farming on PancakeSwap, you could plug in your wallet and instantly see how much you were earning - without leaving the site.
Unlike Zapper.fi or DeBank, which worked across Ethereum, Polygon, and Avalanche, Yieldwatch stuck to BSC. That was its strength and its downfall. In 2021, BSC was the hot chain. Low fees, fast transactions. But by 2023, the market shifted. Ethereum L2s like Arbitrum and Optimism grew. Solana and Base exploded. Yieldwatch didn’t adapt. It stayed stuck on BSC.
The dashboard was also one of the first to show impermanent loss visually. For liquidity providers, that was huge. Most platforms buried that data under layers of charts. Yieldwatch made it obvious. Early users praised it for that. But that feature only mattered if the protocols it tracked were still active - and up to date.
Why it stopped working
The dashboard broke.
As new farming pools launched on BSC, Yieldwatch didn’t add them. Instead, it kept showing outdated APYs. Users reported seeing 0% yield on pools actually paying 25%. Some had to manually enter contract addresses just to get the right numbers - defeating the whole purpose.
The team stopped updating. No new features. No bug fixes. No support. By mid-2022, Reddit threads started asking: “Is Yieldwatch dead?” The answers were unanimous: yes.
Even the website itself became unreliable. Links to integration guides led to 404 errors. Documentation hadn’t been updated since June 2022. If you tried to connect your wallet today, you’d find most protocols either don’t show up at all or display incorrect data. The mobile interface, once its biggest selling point, now loads slowly because the backend servers are barely running.
Who still holds WATCH?
As of October 2025, about 22,360 wallets still hold WATCH. Most of them are either:
- People who bought it at the IDO and forgot about it
- Speculators hoping for a “rebirth”
- Wallets owned by the project team or early investors who haven’t sold
There’s no active community. No Discord server with more than 50 people. No new announcements. No roadmap. The token’s circulating supply hasn’t changed since Q1 2022 - meaning no burns, no new releases, no adjustments. It’s frozen.
Even CoinGecko and CoinMarketCap, which still list WATCH, tag it as “extremely low liquidity” and rank it #2712 by market cap - meaning it’s buried under nearly 2,700 other tokens with more trading activity.
How it compares to the competition
Compare WATCH to Zapper.fi. Zapper supports 15+ chains. It’s used by over 140 institutions. Its daily trading volume hits $24 million. It has a governance token (ZAP) that lets holders vote on upgrades. It’s updated weekly.
Yieldwatch does none of that. It doesn’t even have governance. WATCH gives you zero voting rights. No say in the project. No future. Just a static token tied to a dead dashboard.
DeBank and Zerion have mobile apps. Yieldwatch promised one - “coming soon” - in its last tweet in August 2022. It never arrived.
There’s no comparison. Yieldwatch isn’t just behind. It’s gone.
Is WATCH worth buying today?
No.
There is no reason to buy WATCH unless you’re gambling on a miracle. The project has no team, no code updates, no community, and no future. The token has no utility - the dashboard doesn’t work, and there’s no staking, no burning, no rewards tied to holding it.
Even if you think it might be acquired by another DeFi platform, there’s zero evidence of that. No rumors from credible sources. No leaks. No press. Just wishful thinking from a few Reddit users.
Buying WATCH now is like buying shares in a company that shut down five years ago - and still has its website up, but the doors are locked.
What happened to the team?
No one knows.
The Yieldwatch team never revealed their identities. No LinkedIn profiles. No interviews. No public appearances. They launched the project, raised money, built the dashboard, and vanished.
This isn’t uncommon in crypto. But when a project disappears and leaves users with broken tools, it’s not just negligence - it’s abandonment.
There’s no contact email on the website. No support ticket system. No Twitter replies. No Telegram responses. The silence is total.
Final verdict: A cautionary tale
Yieldwatch (WATCH) started as a smart idea - a simple tool for a real problem. But in crypto, a good idea isn’t enough. You need execution. You need updates. You need to listen to users.
Yieldwatch did none of that.
It’s now a textbook example of how not to build a crypto project. It peaked too early. It ignored the market shift. It stopped communicating. And now, it’s just a ticker symbol with a tiny market cap and zero future.
If you’re looking for a DeFi dashboard today, use Zapper.fi, DeBank, or Zerion. They’re alive. They’re updated. They work.
Watch the WATCH token. Don’t hold it. Don’t trade it. Just let it fade into history - where it belongs.

October 30, 2025 AT 07:56 AMOh wow so this is what happens when you build a tool for a trend instead of a system. People think crypto is about tech but it’s really about endurance. Yieldwatch had a solid MVP but zero grit. No updates no roadmap no community management just a silent retreat after the pump. You can’t just launch a dashboard and expect people to keep holding a token that does nothing but sit there like a dusty calculator. This is why 99% of DeFi projects die - they mistake hype for sustainability. And now we’re left with a ghost ticker and a bunch of people still checking CoinGecko every morning hoping it’ll wake up. It won’t. It’s dead. Move on.

October 31, 2025 AT 06:18 AMtypical crypto scam energy. They raised 800k and vanished. No names no faces no accountability. Just another rug pull disguised as a utility tool. People still holding this are either delusional or they’re the team themselves trying to pump it off the backs of newbies. I’ve seen this script a hundred times - build something simple, market it like it’s the next big thing, then ghost before the first bug report. The fact that Binance still lists it is a joke. They should delist this garbage and stop enabling the dead

November 1, 2025 AT 18:59 PMYieldwatch was actually really useful when it worked. I used it daily in early 2021. The impermanent loss tracker was the only one that made sense to me. It’s sad when a tool that genuinely helped people just… disappears. The team didn’t owe anyone a grand finale but a simple ‘we’re shutting down’ tweet would’ve been human. Silence is the worst kind of betrayal in crypto.

November 3, 2025 AT 12:26 PMyou ever wonder if this was never real to begin with? like the whole project was a front to collect funds and vanish? no one ever saw the devs. no linkedin. no interviews. the website still up but the backend is a shell? sounds like a honeypot. they used the dashboard as bait to get wallets connected then drained them quietly. that’s why the APYs were wrong - it wasn’t a bug. it was a feature. they were harvesting data. and now the token’s just a decoy for the real exit

November 3, 2025 AT 15:04 PMit’s weird how some projects start with so much heart and end up as digital tombstones. Yieldwatch wasn’t greedy - it was just out of its depth. The idea was good. The timing was perfect. But crypto moves too fast. No one had the bandwidth to keep up. It’s not evil. It’s just… human. And humans burn out. I don’t blame them for vanishing. I just wish they’d said goodbye.
