Summary

Lisk is a blockchain project founded in 2016 that moved from its own layer-1 to an Ethereum layer-2 (OP Stack) in 2024. Contrary to the unverified social-media rumour, multiple news outlets report that Lisk itself announced in late August 2026 that the Lisk Chain will close on October 31, 2026, with a pivot to a business finance platform; the LSK token is reported to continue. No primary Lisk post was retrieved, so details rest on secondary reporting.
