Komodo and LTO sink 35% as Binance delisting confirmation shakes markets
Digital currencies performed well on Thursday, with Bitcoin holding above $107,000.
However, Binance’s delisting update has sent shockwaves across various crypto communities.
The leading exchange by trading volume has announced the removal of Komodo, LTO Network, Stella, Biswap, and LiverFi from its ecosystem from 4 July 2025.
The move is part of Binance’s periodic review to delist weak projects and ensure high standards across the ecosystem.
The affected tokens reacted to the news within minutes, presenting diverging performances.
Komodo and LTO Network fell sharply, losing approximately 33% of their value after Binance’s announcement.
The massive slide underscores shaken investor trust as the tokens brace for a liquidity crunch.
On the other hand, Biswap (BSW) gained over 65%, as Stella’s ALPHA (+2) and LEVER (+3.50%) demonstrated resilience despite bearish news.
What prompted the delists?
The crypto market evolves every day. To keep pace, Binance regularly reviews listed assets to ensure that they meet user expectations and industry standards.
According to the official statement, the evaluation follows a thorough analysis based on factors like:
- The team’s dedication to the project
- Roadmap progress and ongoing developer activity
- Liquidity and trading volumes
- Transparency and engagement among community members.
- Alertness during due diligence
- Fraudulent or unethical dealings
While most projects debut with high promises and key upgrades, most fail to survive.
The five projects didn’t meet Binance’s existing benchmarks, possibly due to slowed development, dwindled market traction, or governance issues.
What’s next for holders?
Binance will remove all spot trading pairs for ALPHA, LTO, KMD, BSW, and LEVER starting 4 July.
Notably, trading bots linked to these assets will automatically go offline.
The exchange will close all spot copy trading positions and force sale or shift the assets to Spot Accounts by 3 July at 03:00 UTC.
Users are strongly advised to update or cancel their Spot Copy Trading portfolios prior to Binance Spot Copy Trading delisting time to avoid potential losses.
Meanwhile, investors will have until 3 September 2025 to withdraw the delisted tokens.
Binance will halt withdrawals after that.
The exchange might choose to convert the remaining balances into stablecoins after missed deadlines.
KMD and LTO price actions
While BSW, ALPHA, and LEVER soared amidst the uncertainty, Komodo and LTO Network’s native tokens endured substantial dips on their daily charts.
KMD trades at $0.06617 after a slight rebound from intraday lows.
The 400% surge in 24-hour trading volume highlights intensified trader actions.
Rising volumes during price dips indicate more participants dumping to avoid losses.
LTO hovers at $0.02210 with a significant bearish structure. It has also seen a nearly 500% increase in trading volumes.
Nevertheless, this doesn’t mean the projects have hit a dead end.
While delisting by leading trading platforms is indeed a notable setback, Binance’s move will potentially slow down investments and adoption of the impacted assets.
Developers may need to ramp up communications, accelerate developments, and enter strategic collaborations to prevent further damage.
