Some good projects has been paused due their raised ETH value was falling in bear market.
But i think most paused projects unable to revive the project again, because they might have sold their raised ETH or other coins with low price at the time of bear market.
that means they can't develop a proper product because when they know there was a possibility for the price of ethereum to be falled and they must use their funds wisely. it looks like they were money grabber project only and no more.
and this is the law of the market. it happens all the time and you must always be ready for it. diversify your money and it will be your salvation
