Binance, one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges, has made major rules changes to its Alpha program. The company announced that as of 03:00 (UTC+3), on June 17, 2025, the amount of trading between alpha tokens will no longer be included in the alpha score calculation.
This decision comes after several alpha tokens, such as ZKJ and Koge, experienced high price fluctuations recently. Binance explained that the volatility was caused by large investors withdrawing liquidity in the chain and subsequent liquidation chains.
The company said the changes were implemented to protect fair competition in the market, ensure stability and reduce systemic risks that could arise from excessive concentration.
According to its official website, Binance Alpha serves as a pre-selection platform where tokens, which are considered potential lists of exchanges, are transparently introduced. The projects included in the program are selected based on Binance’s industry expertise and advanced analytics.
There is no direct listing guarantee, but Binance Alpha tokens may be listed in Binance Exchange in the future.
