INTRODUCING | Binance Wallet Launches Binance Alpha to Spotlight Promising Projects and Enhance Pre-Listing Transparency

Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume and users, has announced the launch of Binance Alpha, a platform within Binance Wallet (previously known as Binance Web3 Wallet) designed to spotlight early-stage projects and help users explore Alpha opportunities.

Notably, Binance Alpha serves as a platform for featuring tokens that may be considered for listings on the Binance Exchange in the future.

“Binance Alpha serves as a pre-listing token selection pool, designed to enhance transparency in the process of token consideration for Binance Exchange listings,” said Winson Liu, Global Lead of Binance Wallet.

“By publicly highlighting a curated selection of early-stage projects, Binance Alpha fosters community trust, offering users insights into tokens with potential for future growth within the Binance ecosystem.”

Here are some key highlights:

• Binance Alpha is a platform within Binance Wallet that serves as a pre-listing token selection pool, spotlighting early-stage projects which may be considered for future listings on the Binance Exchange, though listing is not guaranteed.
• Binance Alpha was launched to enhance transparency in the token consideration process for Binance Exchange listings.
• Tokens featured on Binance Alpha are carefully selected using Binance’s industry expertise and advanced insights, focusing on those demonstrating strong community interest, growing traction, and alignment with key trends shaping the crypto ecosystem.
• Binance Alpha provides users with valuable insights into promising projects, helping them deepen their understanding of the Web3 landscape and its potential to shape the future of blockchain technology.
• Tokens will be showcased in batches for a 24-hour period, during which users can explore project details and purchase tokens using the Quick Buy feature. After the spotlight period, featured tokens remain in the Alpha section of the Markets tab, allowing users to continue to track and purchase them.

Tokens featured on Binance Alpha are selected using Binance’s industry expertise and advanced insights, spotlighting those that demonstrate,

• strong community interest
• growing traction, and
• alignment with key trends shaping the crypto ecosystem

Binance Alpha is also intended to provide users with valuable insights into promising projects, helping to deepen their understanding of the Web3 landscape and its potential to shape the future of blockchain technology.

Here is how it works:

• Announcements about upcoming tokens on Binance Alpha will be shared on Binance Wallet’s and Binance’s official social channels prior to their launch.
• A countdown clock and chain details will appear on the Binance Wallet’s Markets tab.
• Tokens will go live in batches for a 24-hour showcase period, during which users can explore project details and purchase tokens using the Quick Buy feature.
• After the spotlight ends, featured tokens will remain in the same Alpha section in the Markets tab, where users can continue to track and trade.

The ‘Quick Buy’ feature enhances the trading experience by optimizing the existing Swap functionality within Binance Wallet. This innovation enables faster and more seamless transactions, offering a higher success rate and better prices compared to other decentralized exchanges (DEXes) or trading bots.

Key improvements include:

• Automatic selection of the native chain’s token and default trading amount based on wallet holdings
• Automatic slippage adjustment during retries to improve transaction success rates, and
• An anti-MEV mechanism to mitigate the effects of Maximal Extractable Value (MEV) on large transactions, ensuring better prices for users.

Users can explore Binance Alpha and discover innovative projects on Binance Wallet starting December 18 2024, with five tokens planned to be announced on that day and the following two days – December 19th and 20th 2024 – subject to changes.

For the latest updates, users can follow Binance Wallet’s official X account.
