- BNB Chain launches a $100M liquidity support program for new tokens.
- Projects get up to $500K based on listings and market cap.
- The program trials for three months, supporting DeFi, AI, and gaming.
BNB Chain established a $100 million Permanent Liquidity Support Program to provide additional market liquidity for new tokens listed on major centralized exchanges. Through the initiative the BNB Chain incentivizes native projects with liquidity rewards based on exchange listings and market capitalization performance.
The program follows two previous funding rounds, in which $4.4 million was distributed into liquidity support. This latest phase of the initiative introduces new divisions for projects according to the marketplaces where they are listed.
Category 1 tokens are listed on platforms Binance, Coinbase and Upbit, while Category 2 tokens are found on Kraken , Bybit and OKX. Category 3 tokens exist on Bitget, MEXC, Gate.io, KuCoin, and Crypto.com exchanges. Each of the three project categories establishes a maximum reward allocation where Category 1 projects receive funding up to $500,000.
Eligibility and Reward Structure
The BNB Chain requires all qualifying tokens to exist exclusively within its network while fulfilling its on-chain requirements. These include a minimum market capitalization of $5 million, at least 10,000 holding addresses, and an average daily on-chain trading volume of $1 million. The collective ownership of externally owned accounts (EOAs) in their top ten positions should remain below 10% of the total supply while excluding centralized exchange wallets.
BNB Chain will conduct weekly eligibility checks every Tuesday, assessing tokens that meet the criteria from the previous Monday to the current Monday. Approved projects can claim multiple liquidity rewards as they achieve new listing milestones. The maximum reward per project is capped at $800,000 in liquidity incentives.
BNB Chain Program Trial and Industry Impact
Based on performance evaluations, the program will operate for three months before determining its long-term viability. BNB Chain aims to support various sectors, including memecoins, artificial intelligence, decentralized finance and gaming.
The program stimulates token listings on centralized exchanges through rewards to improve the BNB Chain ecosystem adoption and liquidity. The structured reward system establishes this initiative as a critical development method for the sustainable expansion of new blockchain projects.
