Recently, Binance launched a new listing mechanism called 'Community Governance'.

Simply put, in the future, whether to list or delist a coin will no longer be solely decided by the platform; we users will also have a say through voting. I looked at the announcement and thought this was quite interesting.

First is the voting for listing and delisting coins.

In the past, exchanges could list whatever coins they wanted, and we users could only watch without any input. Now it's different; Binance has created a mechanism for 'voting to list coins' and 'voting to delist coins'.

As long as you have 0.01 BNB in your account—which is just a few bucks—you can cast a vote. If you like a project, vote for it, and if it gets enough votes and passes Binance's review, it can be listed. If there are some coins that are performing poorly, stagnant, or risky, we can also vote to kick them out.

I think this move is quite exciting. Why? Because we finally have a sense of participation. Plus, the threshold is low, and it’s easy to get involved, unlike some places where you need to accumulate hundreds or thousands of coins to qualify.

Maximum transparency, the platform doesn’t profit from listing fees.

Another highlight is that Binance stated they do not make money from listing fees; the marketing costs for the project parties will also be disclosed, and tokens will be airdropped to us users in batches. This is significant news in the crypto world. Binance directly said they won’t collect this fee and even revealed the costs, which is quite sincere. The airdropped tokens also allow ordinary people to gain some benefits.

Multiple ways to play, there's always one that suits you.

In addition to voting, Binance also offers new coin mining, Megadrop, and HODLer airdrop activities, which are all good ways to participate in new projects with low risk. For example, in new coin mining, you lock some BNB, and after a while, you can receive new coins for free; the risk is low, and I, as a conservative player, quite like it. Megadrop sounds like a task-based activity to earn tokens, which is highly interactive and also quite interesting.

Alpha Observation Selection Pool, high risk, high reward.

Now let’s talk about the Alpha Observation Selection Pool; the name sounds impressive, but the announcement mentioned that the tokens in this pool are highly volatile, and poorly performing ones will be removed in batches. In short, this is a good start; it all depends on how it’s played out in the future.
