Binance has revealed major updates to its Watch Tag policy, which will now be updated monthly and will expand the range of tokens under closer observation.
Starting from March 4, 2025, Binance will add new tokens to its Watch Tag list at the beginning of each month, based on community input. However, the removal of tokens from the Watch and Seed Tags will continue to be assessed quarterly.
As part of this change, Binance has added 10 new tokens to the Watch Tag list, which now includes AERGO (AERGO), Alpaca Finance (ALPACA), AirSwap (AST), Badger DAO (BADGER), BurgerCities (BURGER), COMBO (COMBO), NULS (NULS), STP (STPT), UniLend (UFT), and VIDT DAO (VIDT).
The Watch Tag indicates that these tokens are considered higher-risk due to factors such as volatility. Binance will monitor these tokens closely, and if they fail to meet the exchange’s standards, they could be delisted.
For users wishing to trade tokens marked with the Watch Tag, certain requirements must be met: they must pass an exam every 90 days on Binance Spot or Margin platforms, acknowledge the associated risks by agreeing to Binance’s Terms of Use, and be aware of risk warnings displayed on relevant transaction pages.
Binance’s review of tokens will be based on factors including the project’s team commitment, development activity, trading volume, network security, transparency, and responsiveness to due diligence inquiries. This policy is designed to enhance transparency, raise awareness about risks, and ensure that listed tokens adhere to security and sustainability standards.
