Binance, a prominent cryptocurrency exchange, recently announced the completion of its first Vote to Delist, resulting in the removal of 14 tokens from its platform on April 16, 2025. This decision was made after careful consideration of community voting and internal evaluation criteria.
Thousands of users participated in the voting process, which underwent multiple layers of verification to ensure the integrity of the results. The tokens selected for delisting were evaluated based on various factors, including trading activity, development quality, team responsiveness, community communication, regulatory risks, and signs of unethical conduct.
Tokens like TROY, CTXC, and UFT received the highest number of eligible votes and were included in the delisting. However, other tokens with lower rankings were also affected.
Binance recently introduced community-driven mechanisms, such as the “Vote to List” and “Vote to Delist,” which empower users to influence token listings and removals on the platform. The “Vote to List” campaign allows users to vote for new tokens to be added, while the “Vote to Delist” initiative enables users to propose the removal of underperforming tokens.
It’s important to note that future delistings remain a possibility for tokens that survived the initial round. Binance clarified that tokens in the first batch of Vote to Delist that were not selected for delisting may still be delisted in the future if they no longer meet the platform’s listing requirements.
The cryptocurrency platform is urging users to prepare for the upcoming changes by closing open positions, halting trading bot activity, and withdrawing affected assets before the key deadlines. In the days leading up to and following April 16, multiple Binance services, including Futures, Margin, Simple Earn, Gift Card, and Pay, will phase out support for the delisted tokens.
