Binance Cleans House: 20 Cryptos Kicked to the Curb!

by

In the dusty plains of the crypto frontier, the mighty Binance has decided to sweep out the barn, sending twenty stray tokens packing. Like a weary farmer culling the weak from the herd, the exchange has announced the delisting of a motley crew of cryptocurrencies from its alpha platform. The clock strikes 6:00 (UTC) on May 14, and these digital misfits will be left out in the cold.

The list reads like a roll call of the forgotten: PRAI (Privasea AI), COMMON (Common), PINGPONG (PINGPONG), TAKER (Taker Protocol), JANITOR (Janitor), GATA (Gata), KLINK (Klink Finance), CORL (Coral Finance), SWTCH (Switchboard), ARIAIP (Aria Protocol), LONG (Belong), ZKWASM (ZKWASM), GORILLA (Gorilla), ECHO (Echo Protocol), LITKEY (Lit Protocol), FIR (Fireverse), GM (GOMBLE), DELABS (Delabs Games), DONKEY (Donkey), and WHY (Why). Yes, even WHY-though we’re all asking the same question.

Binance Alpha will remove the following tokens on 2026-05-14 at 6:00 (UTC): $PRAI, $COMMON, $PINGPONG, $TAKER, $JANITOR, $GATA, $KLINK, $CORL, $SWTCH, $ARIAIP, $LONG, $ZKWASM, $GORILLA, $ECHO, $LITKEY, $FIR, $GM, $DELABS, $DONKEY, $WHY.

Withdrawing or selling of these tokens on…

Binance, with the stern eye of a headmaster, declared these tokens unworthy of its hallowed halls. A recent review found them lacking in the grit and gleam required to stay on the platform. “Not up to snuff,” they said, and out the door they go. Though these tokens are the wallflowers of the crypto ball, Binance isn’t stopping there. More delistings are on the horizon, with bigger names set to feel the axe later in May.

As the dust settles, Binance has already named its next batch of outcasts: Automata (ATA), Harvest Finance (FARM), Enzyme (MLN), Phoenix (PHB), and Syscoin (SYS). Their last dance is set for May 27 at 03:00 (UTC). It’s a tough world out there, and Binance is playing the role of the unforgiving land.

Binance online event highlights

Meanwhile, in the grand theater of crypto, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse took the stage at Binance’s online event on May 13. Alongside Binance co-CEO Richard Teng and Solana Foundation president Lily Liu, they discussed “the Evolution era.” Garlinghouse, ever the optimist, claimed, “We’re as close to the finish line as we’ve ever been,” regarding crypto regulatory clarity. One can only hope he’s not just chasing a mirage.

Liu, with the confidence of a soothsayer, proclaimed, “A lot of the imagined use cases for crypto are coming true over time.” And Teng, ever the pragmatist, declared, “We are no longer just focusing on crypto. We are a multi-asset class exchange, multi-jurisdictional exchange.” Bold words, but in this wild west of finance, only time will tell who rides into the sunset.
