Not until it isn't.

With a billion dollar market cap, the project definitely remain in the top 8 in CMC[1]. However, the.NET and C# smart contract platform they provide appears to have failed, and neither investors nor the developer community appear to be interested in the services they provide. Now, the stratis Dev team decided to initiate this nonsense involving a token swap and altering the inflation rate after they ran out of money and needed to re-fund their failing project[2].

Sometime it isn't, given their circumstances before they do the token swap. If the developer decides to change the concensus rules of a project, it is highly likely that it's failing in the first place.
