Binance has updated its token listing risk framework by expanding the Monitoring Tag designation to six additional cryptocurrencies. The move comes as part of the exchange’s ongoing efforts to alert users to assets that exhibit heightened volatility and risk. The change will take effect on May 7, 2025.
The following tokens will now carry the Monitoring Tag:
-
Stella (ALPHA)
-
Hifi Finance (HIFI)
-
LeverFi (LEVER)
-
Movement (MOVE)
-
Portal (PORTAL)
-
REI Network (REI)
According to Binance, tokens assigned a Monitoring Tag are subject to more frequent reviews. If these assets no longer meet the platform’s listing standards, they may face delisting.
What the Monitoring Tag Means for Traders
Tokens with the Monitoring Tag are identified as assets that display elevated risk, which may include factors such as:
-
Sharp or prolonged price volatility
-
Reduced liquidity or trading volume
-
Regulatory uncertainty or lack of transparency
-
Insufficient development or declining community activity
To trade tokens marked with the Monitoring Tag, Binance requires users to complete a risk awareness quiz every 90 days on its Spot and Margin platforms. A banner warning will also be displayed on trading and market overview pages to reinforce the risk disclosure.
