Some of them do exit. There are many crypto pump-and-dump schemes where the project website is zombified, and the founders are MIA (and are probably sipping cocktails on a beach somewhere).
The big fish though... The FTX founder was described as being a gambling addict: he would take any risk as long as the outcome was statistically favorable. And I think this attitude was pervasive among many of the biggest crypto names. They were't looking for exits, they were looking to go even bigger because they can't help themselves.
