Dear Binancian,
We are pleased to introduce Binance Alpha, a new platform within the Binance Wallet that showcases early-stage crypto projects with the potential to grow within the Web3 ecosystem.
Binance Alpha is a pre-listing token selection pool designed to improve transparency in the process of considering tokens for listings on the Binance exchange.
Tokens listed on Binance Alpha are carefully selected using Binance’s industry expertise and deep insights, highlighting tokens that demonstrate strong community interest, positive momentum, and alignment with key trends shaping the crypto space.
While there are no guarantees, some tokens listed on Binance Alpha may be considered for future listings on the exchange, providing users with valuable insight into projects that could have lasting impacts on the blockchain and Web3 industries.
Users can explore Binance Alpha and discover projects on the Binance Wallet starting on 2024-12-18. Five tokens are expected to be announced on that day, followed by five more on 2024-12-19 and again on 2024-12-20 (subject to change). Additional token announcements are planned after these dates. Users can follow the Official Binance Wallet X Account for updates and additional information.
About Binance Alpha
Binance Alpha lets you discover early-stage projects that are shaping the future of the crypto ecosystem. Selected through Binance’s industry expertise, the tokens featured on Binance Alpha demonstrate strong community interest, positive momentum, and alignment with key market trends.
Here are the main features:
Innovation Spotlight: Discover the tokens that are hot in Web3, to better understand the projects that matter in the evolution of the crypto landscape.
Quick Access: Easily buy tokens with the Quick Buy feature directly from Binance Wallet. It optimizes the existing swap functionality, resulting in a higher transaction success rate and better prices compared to other DEXs or trading bots:
Automatic selection of native blockchain token and default trading amount based on wallet holdings;
Automatically adjust slippage while retrying trades to improve success rates;
An anti-VME mechanism designed to prevent the negative effects of VME on large transactions, thereby ensuring better prices, especially for large transactions.
Educational Insight: Learn about emerging projects, their use cases, and why they are popular within the blockchain ecosystem.
Expert Selection: Featured tokens are selected using Binance’s watchlist and in-depth knowledge, ensuring they align with market trends and community interests. While there are no guarantees, some tokens may be considered for future listings on the Binance exchange.
Please note that Binance Alpha is an educational initiative and is in no way an endorsement or guarantee of listing on the Binance exchange. Tokens are selected based on a variety of factors, including community interest, market dynamics and trends.
How Binance Alpha Works
Preparation: Make sure you have created a Binance Wallet, backed it up, and updated your Binance app to version 2.93.0 or higher for a better experience.
Pre-launch: Follow the announcements on Binance’s official social channels. A countdown and blockchain details will appear in the Alpha section of the Markets tab. Make sure you have enough balance of the main blockchain’s native token for the presentation.
Announcement: Tokens will be released in batches for a limited time of 24 hours per showcase period. During this time, users can view project details and use the quick buy feature to purchase tokens.
Note: Users must back up their Binance Wallet before using the Quick Buy feature. After this highlight, the featured tokens remain in the same Alpha section of the Markets tab, where users can continue to track and trade them.
