Binance flags 4 tokens and removes 14 from Alpha
Binance placed four cryptocurrencies under its Monitoring Tag on Sept. 4 while separately removing 14 tokens from the Binance Alpha recommendation list.
Summary
- Binance added AVA, GNS, SCR and TOWNS to its Monitoring Tag list on September 4.
- Tagged tokens remain tradable but face additional reviews and possible delisting if standards are unmet.
- Binance Alpha removed fourteen tokens from recommendations while preserving users’ withdrawal and selling functions afterward.
- The Alpha removals do not automatically remove those assets from Binance’s main spot exchange listings.
- Monitoring decisions consider liquidity, development, network security, communications, tokenomics and project team conduct during reviews.
AVA, Gains Network, Scroll and Towns Protocol received the Monitoring Tag following the exchange’s latest project reviews. The designation warns users that the tokens carry higher volatility and risk than other assets listed on the main Binance exchange.
In a separate notice, Binance Alpha removed MTP, BDXN, TALE, BOS, MAIGA, TIMI, SAROS, U, SERAPH, RVV, AIAV, PENGUIN, ODOS and SN3. Selling and withdrawals remain available for those assets.
Binance Monitoring Tag places four tokens under review
The Monitoring Tag does not immediately remove AVA, GNS, SCR or TOWNS from trading. Related Binance services also remain available following the designation, according to the exchange.
Instead, Binance will review the four projects more frequently. A token could eventually be delisted if the exchange determines that it no longer meets its listing requirements. Binance did not identify a separate violation or specific weakness for each project.
The exchange’s review criteria include trading volume, liquidity, development activity and the project team’s continuing commitment. Binance also examines network security, smart contract stability, public communication and responses to its due diligence requests.
Other considerations include token supply increases, changes to tokenomics and evidence of fraudulent, unethical or negligent conduct. Binance said it could add or remove the tag after future reviews.
Users trading Monitoring Tag assets on Binance Spot or Margin are generally required to complete a risk-awareness quiz every 90 days. They must also accept the exchange’s applicable terms. These requirements are intended to ensure traders understand the possibility of heightened volatility or delisting.
Binance Alpha removes 14 recommended assets
The Binance Alpha removals took effect at 16:30 UTC+8 on Sept. 4. Alpha is an early-stage token discovery feature within Binance Wallet rather than the exchange’s main spot market.
Removal from Alpha therefore differs from a full Binance spot delisting. It means the assets no longer appear on Alpha’s selected-token list, but it does not automatically terminate listings or services available through other Binance products.
The affected projects include Multiple Network’s MTP, Bondex Token’s BDXN, PrompTale AI’s TALE, BitcoinOS’s BOS and Maiga.ai’s MAIGA. MetaArena’s TIMI, Saros, Union, SERAPH and REVIVE were also removed.
The remaining assets are AI Avatar, Nietzschean Penguin, Odos and Nebula3. Binance said the projects did not meet Alpha’s standards following its latest review but did not publish individual reasons for each decision.
Users can withdraw the tokens through the Alpha assets page. They can also sell them using Alpha’s instant-order function or trade supported assets through Binance Wallet’s market interface.
Alpha removal is different from spot delisting
Binance Alpha provides access to early-stage projects that can carry limited liquidity and sharp price volatility. Inclusion does not guarantee that a token will receive a full Binance spot listing.
Likewise, removal does not mean the main exchange has delisted the token. Binance advised users to conduct independent research before trading the affected assets outside Binance Wallet.
A full spot delisting normally includes separate deadlines for trading, deposits and withdrawals. It may also affect futures, margin, loans, Earn products and other services. None of those broader deadlines were announced for the 14 Alpha tokens.
As crypto.news previously reported, Binance removed 20 other tokens from Alpha in May while separately preparing five assets for spot delisting. The two processes followed different notices and user deadlines.
Monitoring Tags can precede delisting without guaranteeing it
Monitoring Tags serve as warnings rather than final delisting decisions. Binance can remove a tag if a project addresses identified concerns and satisfies subsequent reviews.
However, tagged tokens face a heightened possibility of removal. In August, Binance delisted six cryptocurrencies after four had previously received Monitoring Tags. As crypto.news reported, withdrawals for those six assets remained open until October.
The latest announcement did not provide a deadline for the next review of AVA, GNS, SCR or TOWNS. Their project teams can respond publicly, but Binance retains control over its exchange listing decisions.
No verified market data established a common price reaction across all 18 affected assets when the notices were published. Price changes should therefore not be attributed to Binance’s decisions without token-specific trading evidence.
Crypto hardware wallet Trezor says it’s “terribly sorry” after revealing today that another 67,000 US users were leaked in last month’s mailing partner breach. This brings the total number of affected users to over 80,000.
Trezor initially revealed last month that the personal details of 13,689 of its customers had been leaked after bad actors infiltrated ShipMonk’s systems.
At the time, Trezor downplayed the scale of the incident by claiming its 90-day data policy, which its partners follow, deleted old user data and helped mitigate the leak.
However, Trezor now claims that this policy was never enforced, and that the data was never deleted.
“Throughout our entire relationship with ShipMonk, we repeatedly requested and received written assurance confirming the deletion of the data, in line with our contract, data policy, and past communications,” Trezor claimed.

It added, “We’re terribly sorry to everyone affected. We take this matter very seriously and are working to ship anonymous delivery ASAP, so you can protect your personal information when placing an order.”
Leaks such as this one can lead to criminals targeting crypto users thanks to the extra information they have at hand to tailor their attacks.
Trezor says it did not expect further leaks
Trezor told Protos that it’s too early to decide what it will do in repsonse to ShipMonk’s actions and that it’s working to arrange an additional audit of the mailing partner.
The company claims that on August 10, ShipMonk made it aware of the initial leak that covered orders within the last 90 days. It then informed Trezor on September 2 that the leak actually went back to 2019 and 2021.
“Our understanding is that our cooperation from those years was overlooked when the original scope was established,” Trezor said.
When asked why it took ShipMonk to reveal the further leaks, Trezor claims it had “no reason to expect it” thanks to ShipMonk’s repeated assurances.
Trezor initially reached out to Protos last month to reveal the details of the leak, but it hasn’t done so this time around.
When asked why, it said, “The information is public and it is not behind anything. Our priority was reaching the people actually affected.”

Three key economic events could shape market sentiment in the second week of September: the ECB interest rate decision, the latest UK GDP data and US inflation figures.
In this video, Gary Thomson looks at what these releases could mean for monetary policy expectations and major currency, gold and equity markets.
👉 Key topics covered:
✔️ ECB Interest Rate Decision — 10 September — Markets are pricing in a 25-basis-point rate hike after Eurozone inflation accelerated to 3.3%. With the move largely expected, the ECB’s guidance on future policy could be more important for the euro.
✔️ UK GDP — 11 September — The UK economy grew by 0.4% in Q2, while June GDP expanded by 0.3%. Could the latest data confirm the resilience of the UK economy or point to a loss of momentum?
✔️ US Inflation — 11 September — US annual inflation slowed to 3.4% in July, while core inflation eased to 2.5%. The latest figures could influence expectations for the Federal Reserve’s next policy move and trigger volatility across USD pairs, gold and equity indices.
With both the ECB and Federal Reserve facing important monetary policy decisions, traders will be watching closely for any signals that could change expectations for future interest rates.

BTC Stopped at $82K as Strong US Jobs Report Shakes Markets, Strategy Resumes Buying: Weekly Recap
It was another eventful week in the cryptocurrency markets as August closed, with BTC ending in the green for the first time during a bear market, further signaling a major shift in sentiment. However, Friday’s jobs report flipped the script again.
Before we dive into all of that, let’s rewind the clock by a week and see what the landscape was last Friday. Despite briefly surging past $81,000 on a couple of occasions, BTC was quickly halted and driven south to just under $80,000. Most altcoins, though, produced major weekly gains.
The rejection at the time came after the hawkish stance taken by Fed Chair Kevin Warsh, and the leg down drove BTC to just under $77,000 on Saturday morning. However, the asset rebounded swiftly and tapped $79,000 on Sunday. Another leg down to $77,000 took place on Monday morning as the US and Iran initiated new attacks against each other.
The primary cryptocurrency remained volatile in the following few days, but was contained in a relatively tight range between $76,400 and $79,000. It last tested the upper boundary on Wednesday morning, and the bulls managed to defend it. The subsequent leg up came on Thursday and was significantly more successful.
Bitcoin broke out of its $79,000 barrier and surged past $80,000. It kept going during the early hours on Friday and jumped to $82,400 for the first time since mid-May. Although it was stopped there, it remained above $81,000 until earlier today, when the much stronger-than-expected US jobs report came out.
BTC slumped immediately by two grand as the general assumption is that the Fed will be more inclined to raise the hikes at the end of the month. The weekly performance shows a few clear winners – ZEC has gained 20%, and it even surpassed $1,000 earlier today, XMR is up by 10%, while UNI has rocketed by almost 40%.
Market Data
Market Cap: $2.775T | 24H Vol: $121B | BTC Dominance: 57.6%
BTC: $79,270 (-0.35%) | ETH: $2,450 (-2.5%) | XRP: $1.39 (-1.5%)

Strategy Is Buying Bitcoin Again After 2-Month Pause: Here’s How Much. Monday began with a bang as the world’s largest corporate holder of BTC resumed its purchases for the first time in over two months, accumulating 4,603 BTC for $370 million. The problem for the company is that it sold at low prices only to buy back at much higher levels.
Gold Just Erased All Its August Gains – Bitcoin Is Holding Up Better at $77K. The precious metal exploded alongside BTC in the middle of August, hitting $4,700 for the first time in months. However, it lost all gains, even dipping below its starting price of $4,360 earlier this week. In contrast, BTC is up by roughly 25% even after today’s correction.
Arthur Hayes Says Ignore Warsh and Watch EUR/JPY for Bitcoin’s Next Move. BitMEX’s former CEO believes the Fed and Kevin Warsh are not the most important factors to determine BTC’s next move. Instead, he urged investors to pay more attention to the euro-yen exchange rate.
Trezor Breach Is Much Bigger Than Initially Thought: Another 67,000 Customers Exposed. The hardware wallet manufacturer admitted today that the ShipMonk breach was significantly more worrisome than initially believed. Its latest update showed that the actual number of affected US customers from the data leaks is over 80,000, not 13,689.
Bitcoin Makes History With First-Ever Green August During a Bear Market. As mentioned above, bitcoin ended August in a highly unexpected manner. History suggested that the asset wouldn’t enjoy the eighth month of the year, but reality was much different. BTC closed with a near-25% surge for the first time in bear market years.
Bitcoin Is Back Above $80,000, But Fidelity Says the Bear Market May Not Be Over Yet. The flagship digital asset surged past $80,000, as explained earlier, but analysts at Fidelity weren’t convinced BTC is out of the woods. They outlined some historical references and determined that the bear market might not be over yet.

Summary
- XRP rose 9.4% to $1.46 after holding $1.36 support and breaking above a short-term downtrend.
- Resistance between $1.50 and $1.80 remains the main barrier to further gains.
- September catalysts include an XRPL upgrade, a CLARITY Act vote and the Federal Reserve’s rate decision.
- ASDeFi promotes fixed-return cloud-mining contracts, but its earnings and operational claims require independent verification.
XRP rebounds strongly after holding key support level
On Sep. 4, 2026, XRP was trading at $1.46, up 9.4% over the past 24 hours. After breaking through the downtrend line that had been capping XRP for several days, the price surged from $1.33 to $1.46, marking one of the largest single-day gains in recent memory.
XRP’s next target price is $1.54. However, it has yet to break through the long-term resistance zone between $1.50 and $1.80, which has been holding back its upward momentum for several months. A breakout from this zone, accompanied by strong follow-through buying pressure, is necessary to confirm that this rally is not a fleeting phenomenon but rather the beginning of a larger uptrend.
Today’s price rebound is not merely a technical reaction. XRP’s fundamentals have been steadily strengthening throughout 2026.
On Aug. 11, 2026, Ripple received a full Crypto-Asset Service Provider (CASP) license from the Luxembourg Financial Supervisory Commission (CSSF) under the EU’s MiCA framework. This means Ripple can provide compliant payment services in all 30 countries and regions of the European Economic Area.
Three key catalysts in September
If you’re an XRP investor, be sure to keep these three dates in September in mind:
· Sep. 11 | XRPL 3.3.0 version upgrade activated
· Sep. 15 | Senate vote on the CLARITY Act
· Sep. 16 | U.S. Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) interest rate decision
For retail investors, betting on the outcome of a specific date is a very difficult decision. If you buy XRP at $1.46 and the bill is rejected on September 15, you could incur an immediate loss.

Conclusion
XRP is currently trading at $1.46, up 9.4% today, having successfully held the key support level of $1.36 and broken above the downtrend line. However, the September 15 vote on the CLARITY Act still poses a risk. If the bill passes, the price of XRP could surge to $2. If it fails to pass, it could fall back to $1.27. No one can be certain of the final outcome.
ASDeFi eliminates this uncertainty. Whether XRPL 3.3.0 is activated on September 11, the Senate votes on September 15, or the Federal Reserve decides on interest rates on September 16—ASDeFi users’ Bitcoin accumulation will not stop. Earn passive income every day, unaffected by any of these outcomes.

Bitcoin (BTC) price climbed to $81,050 on Friday, returning to the level it last touched on May 14. Recent buyers now sit far further from breakeven than they did then.
Glassnode data shows the average entry price for coins younger than 155 days has dropped sharply. Bitcoin, meanwhile, trades at almost the same level as in May.
Short-Term Holder Cost Basis Reset Almost $7,500 Lower
Short-Term Holder MVRV measures how far recent buyers sit above or below their average entry. The reading closed at 1.1415 on September 3, against 1.0298 on May 14.
Both dates share nearly the same price. May 14 closed at $81,059.69, while September 3 closed at $81,261.98, a difference of just 0.25%.
The implied cost basis, in contrast, tells a different story. It stood near $78,713 in May and sits near $71,188 today, a reset of roughly $7,500.
That changes the margin for error. In May, a 2.9% dip would have pushed the whole cohort back underwater. The dip arrived, and the rally unwound toward the low $60,000s.
Today the same cohort holds a 12.4% buffer, more than four times wider. Historically, that buffer has decided whether recoveries hold or fail.
SOPR Shows Profit Without Distribution
The cushion looks encouraging. Spent Output Profit Ratio, however, complicates the picture.
SOPR printed 1.0082 on September 3. Coins moving on-chain therefore changed hands at less than 1% average profit.
Comparable breakouts produced far hotter readings. SOPR reached 1.086 in November 2024 and 1.179 in July 2025.
Long-term holders appear inactive. Their coins carry the largest multiples, so meaningful selling would lift the ratio well above current levels.
Yet the same reading cuts both ways. Weekly volume keeps declining, and the spike behind last week’s breakout has not repeated. Thin participation may indicate tight supply among holders, or a move driven by derivatives rather than spot buyers.
Bitcoin Price Prediction and the $82,842 Trigger
The weekly chart shows a sequence of lower highs and lower lows since the $126,200 record. That sequence is now breaking. Bitcoin has printed a higher low and trades 35.8% below its all-time high.
A weekly close above $82,842 would confirm the first higher high since the record. The current weekly high reached $82,285, roughly $557 short.
Resistance sits immediately above at the 0.382 Fibonacci retracement near $83,917. A break of the trigger that stalls there would leave the reversal unconfirmed.
Support looks unusually well defined. The 200-day moving average sits at $69,664 and the 0.5 Fibonacci level at $70,855. The on-chain cost basis at $71,188 completes a band just 2.16% wide.
Bitcoin last tested that moving average as resistance on May 14. It now trades 16.3% above it.
Momentum warns against chasing. Daily RSI sits near 72 after touching 78 in late August, an early bearish divergence. Weekly RSI near 60, by contrast, still leaves room. A volume expansion would settle the argument.
Above $83,917 the reversal gains confirmation. Below $71,188 the buyers behind this move lose their profit.
