"Less than an hour after ACT went online, Twitter exploded."
In November, the listing of ACT and PNUT on Binance quickly ignited the entire market, and the price of ACT rose 10 times in just 10 minutes. Some people bought A7 coins alone, while others were upset by selling them at high prices. Coin holders became rich overnight, which also led to the "gold rush" in the Meme market in November, just to chase the next 100-fold big golden dog.
The feeling of being out of the game is like a domino, triggering widespread speculation about Binance's listing strategy: Why did Binance choose these coins, and who will be the next lucky winner?
The outstanding performance of ACT and PNUT has attracted attention and new thinking about Binance's listing mechanism. What kind of wealth code is hidden behind these narratives and carnivals? Why can Binance ignite the market again and again? The following data statistics and analysis will reveal the underlying logic of the "Binance Wealth Effect" from the root.
01In-depth Analysis of Binance's New Coins in November
From the new coin yield data last month, Binance has shown a flexible strategy in selecting projects that is highly synchronized with market trends. According to the following table, we will deeply analyze Binance's listing logic from the two dimensions of wealth effect and currency selection tendency.
1. Data analysis: Most new coins hit record highs after listing on Binance
From historical data, the performance of new coins on Binance after listing usually follows a cycle of "explosion-high-pullback-stabilization". Take ACT and PNUT as examples: at the beginning of listing, market sentiment was quickly ignited, and prices rushed to highs in a short period of time; then entered the natural pullback stage. Below we will analyze them one by one:
Short-term wealth effect is significant, and the first-day increase is amazing
From the data, the wealth effect of new coins on Binance after listing is particularly prominent. Especially the performance on the first day, it has become a key window for obtaining high returns. For example: ACT: The first day of listing rose by 2100%, and the highest increase reached 4500%, bringing rich returns to short-term investors. PNUT: The first day of listing rose by 255%, and the highest increase reached 2118%, also showing strong market potential. THE: As a non-Meme coin, the first day of listing performed outstandingly, with the highest increase of 197%, far ahead of the same track. The explosive power of these projects, on the one hand, benefited from Binance's precise screening before listing. On the other hand, the market sentiment is often high in the early stage of listing, and the influx of funds drives the price to rise rapidly, creating a short-term "wealth-making effect".
During the rush, most new coins hit record highs after listing
Data shows that more than 60% of tokens hit record highs (ATH) after listing on Binance. This reflects the influence of Binance's new coins in the market to a certain extent.
In addition, a careful observation shows that the performance of new coins that have appeared in the past three months is particularly outstanding. Among them, 9 new coins quickly hit record highs (ATH) after listing on Binance, almost becoming a "must-rise password". Surprisingly, among the 12 old coins, even some of them hit highs in the last bull market or at the beginning of the year, they broke out again with the support of the Binance platform, and 7 of them still hit record highs after listing on Binance. It can be seen that on the one hand, the explosive power of new coins often outperforms old tokens, and the market's pursuit of new projects is obvious. On the other hand, old coins can still break through historical records, which shows the strong influence of the "Binance effect". Perhaps, this is not only the market's fanatical pursuit of new projects, but also a strong verification of Binance's listing strategy and platform appeal.
After the pullback, most tokens still have investment value
Although some new coins have experienced a pullback after a short-term surge, overall, more than half of the tokens still maintain a significant increase in price before listing, with an increase of more than 20%. For example, ACT, PNUT, DRIFT, THE, etc., which have performed relatively well, reflect strong market resilience.
The pullback does not mean a complete loss of investment value. On the contrary, it may provide opportunities for potential long-term investment.
2. Binance's coin listing strategy: follow the trend and return to users and the market
By interpreting this data, we can find an interesting phenomenon: Meme coins account for a considerable proportion of Binance's new coins, such as CHILLGUY, BAN, SLERF, etc. This is not accidental. In the past few months, the explosive power of the Meme sector has been obvious to all. Meme coins have become a hot spot in the crypto market due to their strong community culture, social media effects, and low threshold participation. And Binance has obviously stepped on the node of this wave of market sentiment.
Meme coins listed on Binance often have several core features: “Broad narrative, strong community, and fair chips.”
Broad narrative and moderate market value: Selecting projects with broad influence, clear narratives, and relatively small market capitalizations not only lowers the threshold for user participation, but also ensures market activity.
Strong community cohesion: Prioritize Meme coins that have a strong influence in overseas communities, can drive global market sentiment, and spark discussions in Chinese communities.
Fairness of chips: Ensure that the project mechanism is transparent and fair, and avoid the risk of excessive concentration of chips or market manipulation.
For example, projects such as CHILLGUY and SLERF have accumulated a large number of users and hot topics on the chain before listing on Binance. ACT has a strong community cohesion, and the AI Agent narrative is broad and very novel.
It can be seen that Binance's Meme listing logic is not just a simple follow-up of hot spots. Looking back at the first half of this year, the market had complained about high FDV tokens, but Binance did not blindly launch new ones, but instead supported small and medium-sized market value tokens. In the second half of the year, a more flexible and market-oriented response strategy was chosen - screening tokens that truly have a community foundation and narrative potential. The performance of ACT and PNUT is the best proof of this strategy: behind the release of the wealth effect is the precise grasp of market demand.
02Multiple gameplay and strategies for Binance's new coin launch
The above data analysis is mainly for tokens that are listed on Binance in the form of spot or contract. In fact, Binance's "currency listing" gameplay has long surpassed traditional spot trading and has formed a mature and diversified mechanism. Whether it is an old player with a high risk appetite or a newbie who hopes to win in a steady manner, Binance has corresponding strategies and channels to allow users to get what they need, and even advance in multiple lines. Next, let's take stock of several popular ways to participate provided by Binance:
1. Spot and contract
Spot and contract are the most familiar ways for users to participate, needless to say. When a new coin is launched, the spot market often sets off a round of rising frenzy. Especially after this round of Meme coins were launched, many players seized the opportunity to double in the spot market. The contract market is more suitable for traders who pursue high leverage and high returns. They can go long or short and capture profits from market fluctuations.
Strategy: Study new coin projects in depth, don't be a "headless fly"
Every time a new coin is launched, market sentiment tends to heat up quickly, but the real winners are often those players who have done enough homework in advance. The real potential of a project can be judged by in-depth research on the project's white paper, token economic model, and community activity.
2. Launchpool
Binance's Launchpool is the first choice for zero-risk mining and stable returns, providing users with the opportunity to stake BNB, FDUSD and other assets for mining. For projects that have been successfully launched, such as ENA and TON, users can not only obtain project tokens, but also enjoy high annualized returns. At the beginning of this year, Launchpool set off a craze, and the annualized yield of some projects even reached more than 200%, becoming an important channel for chasing new coins.
The following figure shows Biteye's calculation of the annualized yield of the complete mining cycle of the projects launched from 2024 to the present based on the public data of Binance.
From the data of the past 20 issues of Launchpool, most projects have excellent APY performance on the first day of launch, with an average yield of more than 100%. For example, Ethena's annualized yield on the first day of launch was as high as 288.86%, and the APY at the historical highest price reached an astonishing 447.7%. Similarly, Manta's historical highest price APY reached 375.31%, showing huge profit potential.
In addition, it can be seen from the online currencies that there are many high-quality projects, most of which have strong fundamental support, which is also one of the important reasons for the subsequent high currency prices. Taking Usual as an example, its APY reached 57.33% on the day of its launch, and its current market performance exceeded the opening, with an APY of 78.40%. The same is true for ENA, with a current APY of 282.72%, far exceeding its performance on the first day of launch.
Overall, Binance Launchpool not only provides a safe and low-threshold participation opportunity, but also brings considerable returns. At the same time, Launchpool has stable returns and does not require large risks. Especially for users who hold BNB for a long time, the returns are even more significant.
Strategy: Pay attention to Launchpool and airdrop opportunities, and accumulate small profits to win big
For investors with low risk appetite, Launchpool and BNB holder airdrops are excellent ways to enter the market. Holding BNB can not only participate in mining, but also reduce the cost of holding positions, and is also an important source of low-risk returns.
3. Pre-market trading
Pre-market trading is a new feature provided by Binance for users, allowing users to buy and sell specific tokens in advance before the tokens are officially listed on the spot market, thereby locking in price advantages earlier. This stage is usually more volatile, but it also means potential high-yield opportunities.
Strategy: Make good use of pre-market trading and seize market opportunities
Pre-market trading provides an opportunity to plan ahead, but the volatility is large. Reasonable setting of stop-profit and stop-loss to avoid blindly chasing ups and downs is the core strategy of pre-market trading.
4. BNB holders' airdrop
For users who hold BNB for a long time, the airdrop activity is undoubtedly one of the most stable ways to "win by lying down", and holding positions means income. Binance often takes snapshots of BNB holders and airdrops tokens of newly launched projects. For example, before some popular projects go online, BNB holders may be eligible for token airdrops. At the end of November, Binance HODLer launched the second phase of the latest airdrop project, Thena (THE) airdrop. According to the data provided by users, an average of 1 BNB airdropped 1.455. The current price of THE is around 2.9U, and the income is still considerable.
5. Megadrop Web3 wallet task
The Megadrop platform provides two ways to participate: lock BNB and complete Web3 tasks. Users can accumulate points by subscribing to BNB regular products. The longer the lock-up period and the more the number, the higher the points. At the same time, these locked BNBs can also automatically participate in Launchpool mining, achieving "killing two birds with one stone" without additional operations. For retail investors who do not have a large amount of BNB, completing tasks in the Binance Web3 wallet can also obtain airdrop points, which really lowers the threshold for participation.
Binance previously announced a list of product returns, and the standard annualized interest rate for subscribing to BNB 120-day fixed products is around 3.5%.
The following figure is the profit calculation of the two phases of Megadrop, from which it can be seen that the annualized interest rate is basically in line with expectations or even higher than 3.5%. If you participate in Web3 tasks at the same time, there is a probability of doubling, such as BounceBit's annualized rate can reach up to 9.7%.
Compared with Launchpool, Megadrop focuses on providing users with early participation opportunities before listing, while lowering the threshold through on-chain tasks and attracting new users more friendly. Launchpool calculates rewards by staking BNB or designated tokens, covering more projects and suitable for long-term investors. Overall, Megadrop has expanded the audience range of Binance's new listings and injected more vitality into BNB and Web3 wallets.
In short, whether it is the classic spot and contract gameplay, or the innovative Launchpool, pre-market trading and Web3 tasks, it can be seen that Binance's ambition is not limited to short-term surges, and it is creating a full-scale income ecosystem.
03 How to understand Binance's listing effect?
Twitter's currency circle ecology is a wealth amplifier and a narrative generator.
In the second half of 2024, the rise of the Meme market has become a trend that cannot be ignored. From the classic SHIB to the recently popular ACT, the biggest feature of Meme coins is undoubtedly its high communication power and strong community attributes. Unlike VC coins, the key to Meme coins lies in narrative ability. Whether they can leverage community sentiment determines the fate of the coin. Behind these tokens, there is not only liquidity, but more of a cultural phenomenon and community power. They can quickly form a self-propagation effect on social platforms and attract a large number of investors and retail investors to participate. This also makes the Meme market the main battlefield for hot money.
As the market gradually becomes rational, Binance has also shown a more far-reaching influence on long-term value.
For example, Binance's recently launched liquidity protocol THENA (THE) is a low TVL, low market value, and low financing project. It reflects that Binance focuses on helping the market develop in a healthier and more sustainable direction, screening projects that are more valuable to the industry, rather than just about popularity and capital. This may lead to a de-bubble movement in the crypto market.
In this sense, Binance is more like a "wealth maker". Through precise token screening, strict listing standards and powerful traffic amplification effect, it transforms tokens into a kind of "narrative capital" and drives the entire industry to develop in a healthier and more rational direction.
04 New coin practical tips: understand the market and keep up with the pace
Whether you are a novice or a veteran, understanding Binance's multi-dimensional "listing" mechanism is only the first step. How to capture opportunities more safely and efficiently in this process is the real challenge. This is a game that requires strategy, patience and insight. The following are some practically verified Tips that may help you to be at ease in the next round of opportunities.
1. Keep an eye on market dynamics and KOL analysis, and pay attention to community heat
The crypto market is an emotion-driven market, especially during the launch of new coins. Paying attention to the views of KOLs on Twitter can usually capture the direction of the market. In addition, the key to the success of Meme coins lies in community consensus, and potential projects can be captured in advance through social media, on-chain data, etc.
2. Grasp the best entry time and pay attention to stop profit and stop loss
The initial volatility of new coins is the largest, often accompanied by huge pull-ups and pullbacks. It is recommended to set clear entry and exit strategies to avoid emotional operations. Especially within 1 hour after the opening of the new coin, the market sentiment fluctuates violently, and special caution is required. The first day of opening has large fluctuations, so set a good stop profit point to avoid missing opportunities due to greed.
3. Diversify investments and avoid the "all-in" mentality
The market is always risky. Diversifying funds among different new coin projects can not only reduce the impact of the failure of a single project, but also increase the stability of overall returns.
05 Summary
Every time a new coin is launched, it is a touchstone of the market, a self-test for each player, and a contest about market trends, community power and investor mentality.
In the game of currency wealth, the real winners are always those who understand the market and keep up with the pace. For ordinary investors, to seize the opportunity of Binance's new coins, they need not only to keep up with the platform's trends, but also to deeply understand its listing logic.
Where is the next ACT and PNUT? Maintain keen insight and participate cautiously and flexibly. Binance has set the stage. How the story unfolds ultimately depends on us.
