Binance, one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges, has made a significant rule change to its Alpha program. The company announced that as of June 17, 2025, 03:00 (UTC+3), trading volumes between Alpha tokens will no longer be included in the Alpha Score calculation.
This decision comes after some Alpha tokens, such as ZKJ and KOGE, experienced high price fluctuations recently. Binance explained that this volatility was caused by large investors withdrawing on-chain liquidity and the subsequent liquidation chain.
The company stated that this change was implemented to protect fair competition in the market, ensure stability and reduce systemic risks that may arise from excessive concentration.
According to its official website, Binance Alpha serves as a pre-selection platform where tokens that are considered for potential listing on the exchange are transparently introduced. Projects included in the program are selected based on Binance’s industry expertise and advanced analytics.
Although there is no direct listing guarantee, some tokens on Binance Alpha have a chance of being listed on the Binance exchange in the future.
