Four tokens have plummeted to historical lows following the delisting announcement on Binance.
The world's largest cryptocurrency exchange has confirmed its intention to delist four digital assets. The market reaction was immediate: three of the four tokens hit all-time lows on the same day, while the fourth narrowly avoided the same fate.
Delisting as a Trigger for the Crash
Binance announced the removal of Alchemix (ALCX), Ardor (ARDR), NFPrompt (NFP), and Marlin (POND) from trading. The decision was made following a routine review, during which the exchange assesses liquidity, regulatory compliance, and the overall state of the projects. For all four assets, the verdict was unfavorable.
The situation developed most dramatically for NFPrompt and Marlin — both lost about 20% of their value within the first hours after the announcement. Alchemix showed similar dynamics, while Ardor held up with a more modest decline of 6%. However, the key takeaway is not in the percentage figures but in the absolute values: at the time of analysis, ALCX was trading at $2.67, NFP at around $0.0054, and POND at approximately $0.0011.
All four tokens have lost more than 30% over the past month, and three of them — Alchemix, NFPrompt, and Marlin — hit all-time lows immediately after the delisting list was published. Ardor has so far avoided a new record low, but selling pressure persists.
Why Binance is "Cleaning Up" Assets
The delisting procedure for Binance is a standard mechanism for maintaining the quality of its trading offerings. The exchange evaluates trading volumes, liquidity, network security, team activity, and regulatory compliance. In the case of ALCX, ARDR, NFP, and POND, all indicators fell below the acceptable threshold.
The fate of NFPrompt deserves special attention. The token was launched on Binance Launchpool in December 2023. On its first day of trading, its price reached $1.17, but then it suffered a catastrophic decline of nearly 99%. Now, NFP is merely a shadow of its former potential.
Spot trading for all four assets will cease on July 10, 2026. Withdrawals will be possible until September 9. Earlier, on July 2, Binance Futures had already closed related perpetual contracts. Holders still have time to rebalance their portfolios, but in the coming weeks, it will become clear whether this decision will intensify the downtrend or if the market will find a foothold.
Analyst's Comment: Delisting from Binance is not just the loss of a trading platform; it is a signal to the entire market that the asset no longer meets the minimum standards of viability. For long-term holders of such tokens, this is a moment of harsh risk reassessment: if a project cannot maintain liquidity and activity even on the largest exchange, its prospects are extremely bleak.
