Binance Delisting Alert! 14 Tokens Removed After Community Vote, Prices React
Binance delisted 14 tokens after a community vote and standard review, causing price drops.
The delisting considered factors like team commitment, activity, security, and community sentiment.
Binance's new community-involved delisting process has sparked debate over fairness and accountability.
Surprisingly, has decided to delist 14 tokens from its platform, sending shockwaves through the crypto community. The news, which came during Asia’s trading hours, triggered a sharp sell-off, with traders rushing to exit their positions. What makes this even more interesting is that the decision wasn’t made behind closed doors — it came straight from the community.
Binance’s new approach gives users the power to vote on which tokens should stay or go. While it may sound democratic, the move has raised eyebrows and stirred up some serious debate. Why were these specific tokens removed? Could your favorite project be next? And is this new voting system fair — or risky?
Here’s everything you need to know.
Which Tokens Will Binance Delist?
On April 16, 2025, Binance will officially remove the following tokens:
“Following the Vote to Delist results and completion of the standard delisting due diligence process, Binance will delist BADGER, BAL, BETA, CREAM, CTXC, ELF, FIRO, HARD, NULS, PROS, SNT, TROY, UFT and VIDT on 2025-04-16,” the exchange noted.
How Binance Made Its Decision
Binance explained that several key factors were considered before making the delisting decision. These included:
- Changes in the core team or overall project structure
- How committed and responsive the project teams are
- Trading volume and user activity
- Development progress and technical updates
- Security and transparency
- Community feedback
- Regulatory compliance and token design
- Any signs of unethical behavior
Binance warned that just because some tokens survived this round doesn’t mean they’re safe. Tokens that weren’t delisted this time may still face removal in the future if they no longer meet Binance’s standards.
The delisting was based on Binance’s new community voting system. In the latest round, 103,942 votes were cast by 24,141 participants. The exchange said all results were reviewed carefully, with ineligible and invalid votes filtered out.
Important Dates and What Users Need to Do
Users should take note of the following key deadlines:
- On April 16, 2025, at 03:00 UTC, Binance will stop supporting Trading Bots for the delisted tokens. Users should cancel or adjust their bots to avoid losses.
- After that time, token prices will no longer appear in user accounts.
- Deposits of any of the delisted tokens made after April 16 will not be credited.
Withdrawals of these tokens will still be possible until June 9, 2025. After that, starting June 10, Binance may convert the delisted tokens into stablecoins on behalf of users. However, this is not guaranteed, and users will be notified ahead of time if such a conversion is planned.
Shortly after the announcement, all 14 tokens saw a sharp drop in value. Many of them suffered double-digit percentage losses as traders rushed to exit their positions.
Mixed Reactions to the Voting System
Binance’s decision to introduce a community voting system has led to heated discussion. Some critics worry that project teams could influence the results by encouraging or even buying votes, which could affect the fairness of the process.
There are also concerns that smaller or lesser-known tokens may be unfairly targeted, even if they show potential. Some community members feel Binance is shifting the responsibility for delisting decisions onto users, reducing its own accountability.
Binance’s Response
Despite the criticism, Binance says its goal is to improve how tokens are selected and maintained on the platform. The exchange explained that giving users a greater say helps them discover better-quality projects while making sure those projects meet strong standards for quality, innovation, and regulation.
