The opportunity to raise 5 million dollars is here｜Binance Listing Process and Scam Prevention Tips
Binance has released an announcement detailing how projects can list on Binance and how to identify scams impersonating "listing intermediaries". The overall information is very clear: there are rules for listing, but no shortcuts.
1. Listing is not a one-step process, but a phased approach
Binance adopts a progressive listing framework:
Alpha → Contract → Spot
Alpha: The screening and display phase for early-stage projects, helping projects accumulate community and attention through airdrops, Pre-TGE, Booster, etc.
Contract: Providing liquidity and price discovery for more mature projects
Spot: The final listing stage, meaning higher review standards and user responsibilities
Whether a project upgrades depends on a comprehensive assessment of fundamentals, user data, token economics, compliance, etc., rather than time or "connections".
2. Different project stages lead to different listing paths
The lifecycle stage and token status of a project determine the listing products available:
Early-stage projects mainly gain exposure through Alpha
Gradually maturing projects may enter Contract, Launchpool, Megadrop
Only projects that are circulating and have stable data have the opportunity to move towards Spot listing
3. Binance has no listing intermediaries and does not charge listing fees
The most important content of the announcement is the warning against listing scams:
Binance does not recognize any third-party listing intermediaries
There is no "pay for guaranteed listing" or "internal channels"
Using intermediaries to apply will result in direct disqualification and even being blacklisted
Only core members of the project can apply directly, and must complete KYC
Binance has published part of the blacklist and provides a reward of up to 5 million dollars for valid reports.
4. Who is this announcement valuable for?
For project parties: Products, data, community, and compliance are the only passports; taking a long-term route is far more important than looking for "shortcuts".
For ordinary users: Understanding the listing process helps in assessing the stage of the project, and also allows for a more rational view of "why there is still no spot".
Stories of "listing intermediaries" and "paying to get on board" have been heard for too many years. The more transparent the rules, the harder it is for such tricks to survive. If you see any paid promises for listing, you can basically blacklist them. $BNB
