Binance adds monitoring tags to six tokens because of rising volatility
Beginning May 7, 2025, Binance will designate six coins with the Monitoring Tag.
Affected tokens include MOVE, PORTAL, HIFI, ALPHA, REI, and LEVER.
Trading access calls for completing a risk quiz every ninety days, and flagged tokens may be delisted.
Expanding the Monitoring Tag designation to six more cryptocurrencies, Binance has revised its token listing risk structure. The action is part of the continuous efforts of the exchange to notify consumers to assets showing more volatility and risk. May 7, 2025 will see the change in effect.
The Monitoring Tag will now be carried on the tokens below:
Stella (ALPHA)
Hifi Finance (HIFI)
LeverFi (LEVER)
Movement (MOVE)
Portal (PORTAL)
REI Network (REI)
Tokens granted a Monitoring Tag are subject to more regular checks, claims Binance. Should these assets fall short of the listing criteria of the platform, they could be delisted.
What the Monitoring Tag Means for Investors
Tokens with the Monitoring Tag are classified as assets showing high risk, which could contain elements like:
sharp or continuous price volatility
Less trading activity or liquidity
Lack of openness or regulatory ambiguity
inadequate growth or diminishing local activity
for its Spot and Margin systems, Binance calls users to take a risk awareness exam every 90 days for tokens identified with the Monitoring Tag. To further support the risk disclosure, a banner warning will also show on sites on trading and market overview.
The Review Process of Binance
Periodically reviewing all of the mentioned tokens, Binance may change Monitoring Tag allocations depending on variables including:
Team members' dedication to projects
Level and quality of activities related to development
Volume and liquidity of trade
Public message and network stability
answer to Binance's due diligence questions
Part of Binance's larger plan to maintain quality standards for listed assets and improve openness on trading risks is the Monitoring Tag system.
