Binance, Coinbase, and others are quietly running one of the biggest scams in Crypto

Most people have no idea.

It’s not about innovation.

It’s a cycle of hype, fees, and silent exits.

Here’s how they farm retail liquidity while pretending to “support the ecosystem”:

Behind every listing is a negotiation.

Millions paid in “marketing,” “liquidity support,” and “technical integration fees.”

Sometimes under the table.

Sometimes just expensive “visibility.”

This isn’t curation.

It’s a listing auction.

The token gets listed.

Exchanges pump it hard:

• Push alerts

• Banners

• Trading contests

• Twitter bots

• API boosts

Retail FOMOs in thinking it’s “vetted.”

They never realize they’re walking into a fee trap.

Every transaction (buy or sell) generates 0.1–0.5% in fees.

Multiply that by millions in daily volume, and the exchange makes a fortune before the token even proves itself.

And here’s the kicker:

They often hold pre-list allocations selling into their own liquidity.The hype dies.

Retail holds the bag.

The project stops delivering.

Price drops 80–95%.

Volume slows.

Exchanges stop featuring it.

They’ve already extracted the value.

You’re left with the ghost of a token.Then comes the tweet:

“This token no longer meets our listing standards.”

Translation:

We’ve squeezed it dry. It’s no longer useful to us.

It happened with:

• SLP – listed, hyped, farmed, faded

• AMP, RLY, XYO – Coinbase listed them during peak hype, then delisted in silence

• FTX – pay-to-list scandals with MAPS, OXY

• Unknown token “GNSY” – delisted 62 days after launch. No reason given. No trace left.

This is why they love low-cap coins.

This is why they list low-float tokens.

This is why the phrase “doesn’t meet our standards” is so convenient.

There are no standards.

Only cycles.

And you’re in the middle of it.
