Binance To Purge 14 Tokens Following ‘Vote To Delist’ Process

On 16 April, Binance is planning to delist 14 tokens from its platform in a move to purge low-quality projects that do not adhere to the crypto exchange’s tighter listing requirements. 

Binance announced on April 8 that the tokens are being delisted following a “comprehensive evaluation of multiple factors,” including the exchange’s first “vote to delist” results, where community members nominated projects with less than stellar metrics. 

Other factors included are aimed at the team’s commitment to the project, development activity, trading volume and liquidity, network stability, responsiveness to Binance’s due diligence requests and new regulatory requirements. 

The tokens selected for delisting are Badger (BADGER), Balancer (BAL), Beta Finance (BETA), Cream Finance (CREAM), Cortex (CTXF), Aaelf (ELF), Firo (FIRO), Kava Lend (HARD), NULS (NULS), Prosper (PROS), Status (SNT), TROY (TROY), UniLend (UFT) and VIDT DAO (VIDT).

Cboe BZX Files To List Canary‘s SUI ETF

In order to list an exchange-traded fund backed by Sui SUI $1.95, the Cboe BZX Exchange has asked United States regulators for clearance. SUI SUI $1.95 is the native token of the Sui Network, public filings show. 

Before the exchange can list any shares of the fund, the request must be submitted on April 8, must be reviewed and approved by the US Securities and Exchange Commission.

The ETF which is issued by the asset manager Canary Capital will be the first one in the country to hold SUI. Its market capitalization is roughly $6.5 billion, according to CoinMarketCap.

According to Cointelegraph, Sui is a blockchain network which is designed to provide its users with a more streamlined onboarding experience, similar to traditional Web3 applications.

According to DefiLlama., It is built using Move, a smart contract framework based on the Rust programming language. Sui has approximately $1.1 billion in total value locked (TVL). 

Gaming NFT maker Aavegotchi votes to ditch Polygon for Base

According to the results of an onchain vote, Aavegotchi, a non-fungible token (NFT) protocol focused on Web3 gaming, has opted to abandon blockchain network Polygon and “go all-in” on Base, an Ethereum layer-2 scaling chain. 

According to Cointelegraph, the Aavegochti’s governance page said, that on April 8, Aavegotchi’s community members voted 93.5% in favour of a proposal to “Make Aavegotchi Based Again” by deprecating the protocol’s smart contracts on Polygon and re-deploying on Base. 

Aavegotchi founder Dan said in a February X post proposing the shift, that “given our close relationship with the Base team, as well as recent developments in the Base ecosystem […] we believe the most +EV move for Aavegotchi (for this cycle, at least) is to sunset [its Polygon deployment] and go all-in on Base.”

This migration by Aavegotchi’s reflects the efforts to adapt to 2025’s cryptocurrency market downturn, which was worsened last week by President Donald Trump’s plan to impose sweeping tariffs on most US imports.
