$BNB 1. “Upcoming Binance listings in 2025 — how the smartest users stay ahead”

This piece explores the "Binance Effect", where token prices often jump significantly—sometimes by 41%—following a listing. It emphasizes that reacting after public announcements is often too late. Instead, savvy users are turning to tools like Best Wallet, a non-custodial platform that aggregates early signals (e.g., presales, API data) and Binance announcements to spot tokens before they trend. The article also highlights Binance’s strict listing standards, prioritizing regulatory compliance over hype, and notes that U.S. users are redirected to the more limited Binance.US platform due to legal restrictions.

2. Binance partners with BBVA to offer independent asset custody

Binance has joined forces with Spain’s BBVA (Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria), enabling customers to store their crypto assets off-exchange. BBVA acts as an independent custodian, holding assets—often in U.S. Treasuries—that Binance accepts as margin, reducing counterparty risks and boosting investor confidence. This collaboration builds on previous partnerships with custodians like Switzerland’s Sygnum and FlowBank, and comes in the wake of Binance’s hefty $4.3 billion fine for anti-money-laundering shortcomings.

Paxos will pay a $26.5 million fine and invest $22 million in upgrading its compliance infrastructure.
