Dear Investors,We are writing to share a pivotal moment in the evolution of Token Metrics—one that we believe unlocks the true exponential potential of our company and your investment.As of November 30, we have officially closed the chapter on our legacy Analytics Platform.This was a calculated strategic decision. While the analytics platform served us well, we realized that to achieve the massive scale we are aiming for, we needed to streamline our mission. We are moving away from being a tool for analysis and going all-in on the end goal: simply, transparently, and non-custodially owning the market.Why We Are Pivoting to On-Chain IndicesWe are shifting 100% of our focus to building and launching On-Chain Indices (like the TM100).For you, our investors, this pivot represents a significant upgrade in our potential upside: Scalability: The index model allows us to capture value from the entire market rather than just individual subscription users. We are moving from a SaaS model to a decentralized asset management infrastructure. TMAI Utility: This new direction places the TMAI token at the very center of our ecosystem. The indices are designed to drive direct utility and demand for TMAI (and the new veTMAI), creating a stronger feedback loop between our product success and token value. Market Fit: The crypto market is maturing. Investors no longer just want data tools; they want automated, smart exposure to the market. By providing the "S&P 500 of Crypto" on-chain, we are positioning Token Metrics to be a foundational layer of DeFi. Action Required: Access to the new early access group for investing in the indices is restricted. To receive your invite link, you must first fill out the form below to confirm your interest in the indices. 👉 Early Access FormThe Road AheadWe are already seeing incredible enthusiasm for this new direction. The "Early Access Crew" for our indices is growing, and we are currently onboarding users to this new ecosystem.Change is necessary for growth. We are shedding the weight of a legacy platform to run faster toward a much larger opportunity. We believe this focus will yield the highest return on investment for our shareholders and the strongest utility for the TMAI community.Thank you for backing our vision. We are excited to see you on-chain.Ian Balina Founder & CEO, Token Metrics
