Binance has announced that it will remove 14 tokens from the list of featured assets on its Alpha platform. The decision covers SUP, CUDIS, PYTHIA, BLUM, KIN, DN, GAIA, STRIKE, CDL, KO, VRA, EPT, SLX, and CAI. According to Binance’s schedule, the removal takes effect on October 9 at 08:00 UTC.
The exchange said its latest reviews found that these tokens no longer met Binance Alpha’s standards. However, users will still be able to sell or withdraw the affected tokens after their removal.
Which tokens is Binance Alpha removing?
Binance’s announcement listed 14 projects. The affected tokens and their project names are as follows:
- Superp (SUP)
- CUDIS (CUDIS)
- PYTHIA (PYTHIA)
- Blum (BLUM)
- Kindred Labs (KIN)
- DeepNode (DN)
- Gaia (GAIA)
- StrikeBit AI (STRIKE)
- Creditlink (CDL)
- Kyuzo’s Friends (KO)
- Verasity (VRA)
- Balance (EPT)
- SLIMEX (SLX)
- CharacterX (CAI)
The announcement changes these assets’ status on Binance Alpha’s featured token list. It should therefore not be interpreted as a general delisting announcement covering trading pairs on Binance’s spot market.
The notice contains no information about the closure of spot trading pairs or the termination of futures contracts. Binance limits the scope of the decision to removal from the Alpha list and separately explains the options available for selling and withdrawing existing holdings.
Sales and withdrawals will remain available
Users holding these tokens on Binance Alpha will still be able to withdraw their assets after the removal. To do so, they need to open the “Asset” tab, go to the “Alpha” section, select “Withdraw,” and choose the relevant token.
Users who wish to sell can open the token’s page in the same section. From there, they can select “Instant” and then “Sell.”
Binance also provided a route for users who want to trade through its wallet. They can open the “Market” tab in Binance Wallet, search for the relevant token, and access the trading screen.
Removal from the Alpha list therefore does not mean users will completely lose access to their holdings. The announcement specifically states that both sales and withdrawals will remain available after the decision takes effect.
Binance did not provide a separate deadline for these transactions in the notice. Users can follow the access routes outlined in the announcement and monitor subsequent updates.
Binance cites Alpha standards
Binance attributed the list changes to its latest reviews. However, the announcement did not provide a token-by-token explanation of which criteria the projects failed to meet.
The notice alone does not establish that any particular project has suffered a security breach, engaged in misconduct, or ceased operations. The stated reason remains limited to Binance’s general assessment that the assets do not meet its Alpha standards.
The company said it would continue to support innovation and transparency while prioritizing user protection. It also directed users to Binance Wallet’s official X account for further information and updates.
Warning over high volatility
The announcement also warned that Alpha tokens may carry higher-than-normal risks. Binance said these assets could experience significant price volatility and urged users to research projects before trading.
The notice did not include data on the affected tokens’ price performance or market movements following the decision. It therefore does not establish that any specific price movement has occurred in these assets.
Binance also noted that the announcement is a general notice and that some of the products and services mentioned may be unavailable in certain regions. For existing token holders, the key point is that selling and withdrawing will remain possible despite the change to the Alpha list.
