Binance Reviews 10 Altcoins Including AERGO and ALPACA for Potential Delisting Risks in 30 Days

  • Binance has shortlisted 10 altcoins for monitoring, placing them at risk of potential delisting within 30 days.

  • Tokens under review include AERGO, ALPACA, and BADGER, with concerns over volatility, liquidity, and regulatory issues.

  • Delisting not guaranteed, but Binance reviews these tokens regularly, with decisions based on market conditions and compliance.

Binance highlights ten altcoins facing potential risks of delisting due to volatility and low liquidity, reflecting ongoing regulatory scrutiny.

Binance Shortlists 10 Altcoins For Potential Delisting

Following its announcement to list GoPlus Security (GPS), Binance shared another update detailing extending its monitoring tags to 10 altcoins.

Specifically, Aergo (AERGO), Alpaca Finance (ALPACA), AirSwap (AST), Badger DAO (BADGER), BurgerCities (BURGER), COMBO (COMBO), NULS (NULS), STP (STPT), UniLend (UFT), and VIDT DAO (VIDT) are now on the list, effectively placing them on high risk of delisting.

“Tokens with the Monitoring Tag exhibit notably higher volatility and risks compared to other listed tokens. These tokens are closely monitored, with regular reviews conducted. Keep in mind that tokens with the Monitoring Tag are at risk of no longer meeting our listing criteria and being delisted from the platform,” Binance explained in a blog.

Accordingly, Binance has implemented a new requirement for users looking to trade any tokens marked on its Spot trading and Margin platforms. To gain access, traders must pass a risk-awareness quiz every 90 days. This measure ensures that users understand the risks associated with these tokens before engaging in trades.

The exchange emphasized that this shortlisting does not guarantee delisting. Binance will conduct periodic project reviews and decide whether to add or remove the Monitoring Tag. Notably, this decision will hinge on current findings after the review process.

Nevertheless, this assurance did not assuage token holders. In the immediate aftermath of this potential delisting announcement, the values of the 10 cited tokens dipped, posting double-digit losses as investors traded the news.

Notably, tokens with the Monitoring Tag present high risk due to concerns spanning regulatory uncertainty, low liquidity, or extreme volatility. Binance displays this tag on the corresponding Spot and Margin trading pages and the Markets Overview section. Additionally, the exchange shows a risk-warning banner whenever users interact with these tokens.

Citing community feedback, the leading exchange by trading volume said its monitoring tag would now be updated monthly. Nevertheless, it will continue to review the removal of Monitoring and Seed Tags quarterly.

“New projects will be added in the first week of every month,” the exchange added.

By enforcing this requirement, Binance aims to educate and protect its users, ensuring they make informed decisions. The move reflects the exchange’s increasing focus on risk management and compliance in a growing regulatory environment.

Meanwhile, the drop seen across the affected tokens is unsurprising, presenting as a typical reaction to such announcements. For instance, in December, Binance’s decision to delist three altcoins sent affected tokens down a cliff to record double-digit losses.

Conversely, listing announcements have the opposite effect. COINOTAG reported earlier how Binance exchange’s move to list GPS sent the token soaring by over 10%.

Conclusion

This recent move by Binance to monitor and potentially delist certain altcoins underscores the evolving regulatory landscape and the importance of risk management. Users should remain vigilant and informed regarding their investments in the cryptocurrency space.
