Cropper Finance
Summary
Cropper Finance is a permissionless automated market maker (AMM) and yield farming protocol built on the Solana blockchain, launched in mid-2021. The platform raised approximately $1.1–1.5 million across seed and public rounds and underwent security audits by Halborn Security, but operates with a pseudonymous-to-anonymous founding team and has experienced severe TVL and token value decline since its 2021 peak. As of 2025–2026 the protocol shows minimal trading activity, negligible TVL, and near-zero community engagement, raising questions about long-term viability.
