Binance Expands Monitoring Tag Coverage After Project Review
Four tokens flagged for higher risk and closer monitoring
Binance just updated its Monitoring Tag list, adding four more tokens—Acala (ACA), DAR Open Network (D), Streamr (DATA), and Flow (FLOW). Starting January 2, 2026, these tokens will carry the Monitoring Tag, which means Binance sees them as higher risk than other assets on the platform.
The Monitoring Tag isn’t just for show. Binance uses it on tokens that swing more in price or show other risk signals. If a token gets this label, Binance keeps a closer eye on it and could eventually delist it if it doesn’t meet their standards.
If you want to trade any token with a Monitoring Tag on Binance Spot or Margin, you’ll need to take a short risk quiz every 90 days and agree to the platform’s Terms of Use. Binance also puts risk warning banners on trading pages for these tokens, just so nobody misses the message.
Binance looks at a bunch of things when deciding on the Monitoring Tag: how active the project is, how committed the team seems, network security, liquidity, token supply changes, regulatory news, and how well the team communicates with the community. This update doesn’t change anything else about these tokens on Binance—other services still work as usual.
This update is a good reminder: not all tokens are created equal when it comes to risk. If you’re trading or holding any of these four, it helps to know why they’re under review so you can make smarter choices.
If you own or trade ACA, D, DATA, or FLOW, check out the new risk status, keep up with project news, and think about whether your holdings still fit your risk comfort zone.
