Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, released a statement on its token listing process, cracking down on third-party involvement.
In a Wednesday announcement, Binance outlined the official pathways and requirements for token listings on its platform, emphasizing that projects should never engage with any third-party entities and should apply for listings directly with the exchange.
The exchange also identified several individuals and entities falsely claiming to be “Binance listing agents” offering to list on Binance in exchange for payment.
“Please exercise caution and remember that Binance does not authorize anyone to offer such services,” Binance warned, adding that the exchange is also offering significant rewards for valid information about listing fraudsters.
The list of perpetrators is not exhaustive
In a partial blacklist of fake listing agents, Binance identified seven entities and individuals, including Central Research, which claims on its X account to represent an investment research organization.
The list also includes the crypto incubator BitABC, as well as individuals such as Fiona Lee, who presents herself on her Chinese-language X account as a former A-share trader and altcoin liquidity provider.
Binance stressed that the blacklist is not exhaustive, urging the community to be vigilant and report fraudulent activities via the official whistleblowing channel at [email protected].
