Binance, the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange, has announced the listing of three new altcoins on its futures platform.
The newly added tokens—COOKIE, ALCH, and SWARMS—are now available for trading with leverage of up to 75x, offering users enhanced trading opportunities.
Trading for these tokens began on January 7, 2025, at different intervals throughout the day. COOKIE/USDT trading started at 11:30 UTC, followed by ALCH/USDT at 11:45 UTC, and SWARMS/USDT at 12:15 UTC.
These tokens, associated with Cookie DAO, Alchemist AI, and Swarms, are part of Binance’s Alpha Market, which highlights promising emerging assets.
Binance clarified that futures token listings are independent of spot market listings.
The inclusion of these altcoins on Binance Futures does not guarantee their availability on the platform’s spot market, reflecting the exchange’s commitment to offering diverse trading options while maintaining clear distinctions between different trading environments.
