Four tokens collapsed after Binance's delisting announcement: expert analysis
The cryptocurrency market once again demonstrates a harsh reality: after Binance's announcement of the delisting of four tokens, three of them hit new all-time lows on the same day.
The world's largest exchange decided to delist Alchemix (ALCX), Ardor (ARDR), NFPrompt (NFP), and Marlin (POND) starting July 10, 2026. This decision resulted from a routine review during which Binance assesses liquidity, compliance requirements, and the overall health of projects.
Mass Exodus: Traders Abandon Positions
The market reaction was immediate and ruthless. The biggest blow hit the smaller tokens. NFPrompt and Marlin lost about 20% of their value immediately after the news was published, mirroring the double-digit declines of other projects facing delisting.
Alchemix showed a similar trend, while Ardor held out a bit longer, losing about 6%. Low trading activity left almost no chance to sustain the price when the mass sell-off began.
At the time of analysis, Alchemix was trading at $2.67, NFPrompt at around $0.0054, and Marlin at approximately $0.0011. All four tokens have lost over 30% in the past month. After the announcement, Alchemix, NFPrompt, and Marlin hit new all-time lows. Ardor, incidentally, avoided a new record low.
Why is Binance Getting Rid of These Assets?
Binance regularly reviews its list of tradable assets, evaluating trading volume, liquidity, network security, team activity, and regulatory compliance. For the exchange, these four tokens have become too illiquid and risky: each is trading more than 98% below its all-time high and has incurred losses over the past year.
NFPrompt deserves special attention. Binance launched it in December 2023 on its own Launchpool platform. On the first day of trading, NFP rose to $1.17, but then lost nearly 99% of its value. This delisting is another in a series of decisions in 2026 — the exchange had previously removed four altcoins from the platform.
Spot trading of ALCX, ARDR, NFP, and POND tokens will cease on July 10, and withdrawals will be possible until September 9. Even earlier, on July 2, Binance Futures closed perpetual contracts linked to these assets.
Holders still have time to withdraw or sell their tokens before the deadlines. In the coming weeks, it will become clear whether this decision will amplify the decline and whether the pressure previously experienced by other altcoins under threat of delisting will repeat.
My comment: Such events are not just a market correction, but a harsh filter that weeds out projects with low fundamental value. Investors should view delistings as a signal to reassess their portfolios and focus on assets with real liquidity and development.
