Today, let's take a look at which potential projects Binance Alpha might list on the main board in the future!
One. Binance Alpha mechanism and operation process
Binance Alpha is an innovative project discovery platform within the Binance wallet, focusing on early potential projects in Web3, similar to a curated pool of tokens prior to listing. The Binance team selects projects based on market trends and community interest, guided by innovation and growth potential. Currently, most projects are in the AI and meme sections. The platform does not guarantee that projects will eventually be listed on exchanges but provides users with the opportunity to get early access to new projects.
Project announcement and quick purchase: Before the token officially goes live, the Alpha page will display a countdown (usually 4 hours in advance), and the official Binance wallet channel will also remind users. After the countdown ends, the project token will be visible in the Alpha section, and users can conveniently purchase tokens through the 'quick purchase' function.
Points system and community interaction: Binance Alpha has an 'Alpha Points' mechanism to assess user activity. Points are accumulated based on the user's asset balance points and trading volume points within 15 days. Holding eligible assets in Binance spot or wallet (like Alpha tokens and tokens supported in Binance spot) can earn balance points, and purchasing Alpha tokens can earn trading volume points. High point users can qualify for participation in Token Generation Events (TGE) and Alpha airdrops. The community also frequently holds airdrops, challenges, and other interactive activities to enhance project exposure and user activity, but currently, Alpha's points have become increasingly competitive, and it might barely yield a small benefit, possibly not even enough for gas, so currently, the best strategy is to only buy potential projects that can be listed, and avoid trash projects altogether.
Alpha 2.0 integration: Starting from March 2025, Binance will integrate the Alpha platform into the exchange, allowing users to directly purchase on-chain tokens using spot or fund accounts on the Binance trading platform, eliminating the need for external wallets. This greatly reduces the participation threshold and enhances trading convenience, making fund usage more flexible.
Two. List of projects that have been listed
Since its launch in December 2024, Binance Alpha has announced multiple projects. As of May 2025, over 40 projects have been released. The table below lists the tokens covered in each batch (project names are mostly token symbols):

Three. 'Out of the Circle' Projects (Community and Market Performance)
In the Alpha phase, some projects have gained significant attention due to unique themes and community heat:
Projects with high returns: Data shows that multiple projects in the Binance Alpha spotlight section have experienced collective increases. For example, Aptos ecosystem's Cookie DAO (COOKIE) rose by 138% within 24 hours, Ava AI (AVA) rose by 77%, ZEREBRO rose by 32%, ChainGPT (RIF) rose by 31%; Tokenbot (CLANKER) and Fartcoin (FARTCOIN) also rose by about 30%. This indicates that under the themes of 'AI agents', 'Meme', etc., popular tokens on Alpha have triggered strong demand.
Market response: Some Alpha projects have received media and community attention. For example, the FROG (Frog Eye Token) on the Solana chain quickly increased over 3 times after launch, triggering community discussions and airdrop participation frenzy.
User participation: With the diversification of Alpha projects, trading activity has significantly increased. On May 10, 2025, Binance Alpha 2.0 achieved a single-day trading volume of 428.3 million USD, setting a new historical record, with ZKJ, B2, SKYAI, and other projects leading in trading volume. Overall, projects in the Alpha phase have gathered strong market attention due to 'fresh concepts + community interaction'.
Four. What are the current 'potential' projects?
Currently, I have looked overall and highlighted 15 projects from the above, which seem to be relatively good projects, all of which have been analyzed before, sorted by market cap first.
1.Plume, a public chain compliant with American RWA called Plume network, this project was mentioned to be like OM, lacking in substance, and it is also a Chinese and VC-backed project, but why is it highlighted here? Because its current size is large enough, I believe it may go live on spot, but what will happen after it goes live? It is highly likely to repeat OM's pattern, we shall see! (How is the newly launched Plume network focusing on American RWA compliance public chain?)
2.AERO, the leading DeFi project on the BASE chain, when it was mentioned the TVL was only 600 million (24.5), now it has reached 1 billion, current market cap is 600 million USD, and the project is listed on mainstream CEXs, except for BN and OK, so the probability of it being listed is extremely high. (Analysis of 3 BASE ecosystem projects Degen & Bertt & AERO, let's see how the BASE ecosystem really is?)
3.ZKJ, Polyhedra is a zk underlying technology service provider led by Binance Labs and Polychain Capital. Mainly provides ZK series products such as zk-bridge, zk-did, zk-nft, zk-messenger, etc. Currently also developing games on the opBNB chain, with cumulative financing of 250 million USD, so it is definitely a big project, and it is led by BN, this project will definitely be listed! As for why, you can guess for yourselves!
The project has launched on all except BN, as it completed a jumpstart on OK (similar to a launchpool). The estimated price is around 2 USD, as the financing valuation is 1 billion USD, corresponding to a token price of 1 USD, after dropping to around 1.1 USD, it has now rebounded to 2 USD. (Ether.fi + Polyhedra dual big project price prediction analysis)
4.Grass, this project is a Depin project that utilizes users' idle bandwidth to train AI, after going live, it has roughly increased tenfold, the market is very aggressive, current FDV is 1.6 billion USD, 24% unlocked, CEXs are all live except for BN and OK, so the probability of this project being listed is as high as 80%.
5.B2, a Bitcoin layer 2 project, which I previously led for an airdrop, was relatively stingy and did not distribute airdrops. Currently, it seems that Bitcoin's layer 2 has not taken off (except for STX), although Bitcoin has reached new highs, so I believe the probability of this project being listed is only around 50%, mainly because its recent trading volume is quite high, and it has just been launched, which actually puts pressure on selling. (B²network Bitcoin layer 2 airdrop and how to discover some early airdrop projects)
The rest are MEME section (all these projects have been discussed), so it is easier for those with higher market caps to be listed, such as Fartcoin, SPX, POPCAT, MOG, AI16Z, MEW, MOODENG, GOAT, SIREN, GRIFFAN, etc.
This needs to be divided into two parts, one is traditional meme:
1.SPX, 780 million USD, all CEXs except BN and OK have launched. (Can the recent crazy meme still be invested in? (Part 2) Nerio's analysis & SPX6900 breakdown)
2.POPCAT, 600 million USD, same as above! (Analysis of FTN & POPCAT & Orbler three projects)
3.MOG, 500 million USD, same as above! (Is the counterfeit season coming? Analysis of 200-300 specialized 3meme projects TURBO & MOG & ERC20)
4.MEW, 380 million USD, same as above! ()
5.Moodeng, 250 million USD, except for BN, almost all have launched. (Can this wave of hot memes still be bought? Series (3) Moodeng & RBT analysis)
AI meme section:
6.Fartcoin, 1.4 billion USD, all CEXs except BN and OK have launched. (Professional players entering - Fartcoin on-chain data analysis article (practical sharing))
7.AI16Z, 440 million USD, same as above! (Hot AI agent cycle brings several AI agent projects & in-depth analysis of AI investment ai16z)
8.Goat, 220 million USD, all except BN have launched. (Recent rise of the meme Ponke & GOAT analysis & sharing of 5 pumpfun sniper bots)
9.SIREN & Griffan, both have relatively low market caps, around 100 million USD, so the probability of being listed is not high, estimated at 30%.
Other projects were not selected because they are either trash or have too low a market cap, so they are not recommended!
