XCAD Network Shuts Down, Considers Open-Sourcing Code

A creator-tokenization platform winding down is a reminder that the sector's economics remain unproven at scale, and that even projects with a working product can run out of runway. The open-sourcing question matters more than the shutdown itself: if the code is released, it becomes a public good that could seed successor experiments; if not, the tooling simply disappears. Whether the team follows through, and whether any of it gets reused, is the part worth tracking.
