BNB Chain Launches $100M Liquidity Program for CEX Listings
BNB Chain has launched a $100 million liquidity program aimed at enhancing the liquidity of its native projects on centralized exchanges (CEXs). The program, announced on March 24, 2025, allocates $100 million in incentives, primarily in the form of its native BNB tokens, to projects that successfully list on any of 11 major CEXs specified by BNB Chain. This initiative is designed to further enhance BNB Chain’s ecosystem liquidity and foster project growth by incentivizing exchanges to list native BNB Chain tokens.
The program will be executed on a first-come, first-served basis and will initially run for a three-month trial period. Only projects with at least a $5 million market capitalization and $1 million in daily trading volume are eligible, among other criteria. The largest rewards — $500,000 in permanent liquidity — are reserved for projects that list on major CEXs such as Binance and coinbase. In some cases, rewards will be limited to non-withdrawable BNB token liquidity, and in others, they will also include purchases of project tokens to create two-sided liquidity.
This initiative is part of BNB Chain's ongoing efforts to strengthen its ecosystem through various initiatives, ensuring a more transparent and liquid on-chain environment for users. BNB Chain is a community-driven blockchain ecosystem composed of BNB Smart Chain, opBNB, and BNB Greenfield, each serving different functions within the ecosystem. The AvengerDAO community protects BNB Chain users, while Red Alarm provides a real-time risk-scanner for Dapps. The ecosystem also offers a range of monetary and ecosystem rewards as part of its Builder Support Program.
