When Altcoins Take Their Final Bow: Binance’s Dramatic Exodus 🎭💸

by

Dear connoisseurs of the crypto carnival, Binance, that grand impresario of digital fortunes, has decided to cast four unfortunate performers—ALPACA, PDA, VIB, and WING—off the stage come May 2nd. One can almost hear the faint sound of their tokens weeping in the wings.

In a rather unromantic proclamation dated April 24, the exchange announced the retirement of all spot trading pairs tied to Alpaca Finance (ALPACA), PlayDapp (PDA), Viberate (VIB), and Wing Finance (WING), part of its ritualistic token exorcism, also known as “reviews.”

The curtain falls precisely on May 2, 2025, at the ungodly hour of 03:00 UTC. Any open orders will be summarily canceled—no encore, no reprise.

And lo, Binance will also pull the plug on the mechanical minstrels—the spot trading bots—associated with these tokens. A friendly reminder to cancel or update these tireless but blind automatons lest they bleed your pockets dry in tragic loyalty.

But the drama does not end there. Support for these tokens will be gradually banished from the entire Binance theater: Margin, Futures, Loans, Simple Earn, Pay, Convert, Dual Investment—like a poorly directed tragedy, the exits will be many and merciless.

Withdrawals shall remain available until the fateful day of July 4—an ironic Independence Day, no doubt—or your remaining balances may be transformed into the stoic silence of stablecoins starting July 5, though the magic of conversion is a gamble, not a guarantee.

Why this merciless purge, you ask? Binance claims it’s merely a routine inspection to ensure all assets uphold the *ahem* “standards” of a rather exclusive club. They considered the vigor of project development, the fickle passions of trading volume, the often fleeting community engagement, the steadfastness of teams, and the ever-watchful gaze of regulators. Such trifles!

Upon the announcement, the tokens tiptoed toward the abyss: PlayDapp plunged 19% in an hour, Viberate took a grand nosedive of 34%, and Wing Finance flapped away with a 25% loss. Oh, the cruel ballet of market sentiment! 🩰

Alpaca Finance chose a different dance—a dramatic dip of 20%, followed by an electrifying pirouette rising as much as 70%. Perhaps sprightly speculators pirouetted onto the scene, or liquidity’s sudden shifts were the unseen choreographer behind this spectacle.

And for the encore nobody wanted: This latest vanishing act follows the unfortunate demise of AERGO, which crashed over 70% mere hours after its future debut—sparking whispers of manipulation and coordinated sell-offs. Let us not forget Binance’s curious habit of first delisting, then relisting AERGO for leveraged trading just before the nosedive. The plot, my dear reader, thickens like bad custard.
