For beginners and investors, this news may come as a curveball. Why does an exchange remove tokens? What does it mean for your portfolio?
Let’s unpack this decision from Binance and explore its implications. Also, arm yourself with insights to navigate this dynamic market.
Why Binance Delists Tokens: A Closer Look
Binance’s delisting process isn’t arbitrary. The exchange regularly reviews listed tokens to ensure they meet strict standards, prioritizing user protection and market health. Tokens are evaluated on factors like the project team’s commitment, development activity, trading volume, network security, and transparency. If a token falls short or the industry shifts—like new regulations emerging—it risks being cut. Take BakeryToken (BAKE), for example. Launched in 2020, BAKE powers BakerySwap, a decentralized platform for trading digital assets.
Binance will delist BAKE, HIFI and SLF on September 17, 2025.
Despite early buzz, its trading volume has dwindled, with daily trades averaging just $5 million in mid-2025, per CoinMarketCap data. Low liquidity can make tokens less attractive to investors, prompting exchanges like Binance to act. Other factors, like unresponsive teams or questionable token supply changes, can also trigger delistings. Binance’s move reflects a broader trend: exchanges are tightening standards as the crypto market matures, with 68% of major platforms delisting underperforming tokens in 2024, according to CryptoCompare.
