Nearly every token Binance listed in 2024 is now bleeding red — Coin98

Part of the problem is the airdrop model for token distributions, which has grown in popularity in recent years.

Of the 30 tokens listed by cryptocurrency exchange Binance in 2024, all but one are in the red—and most are down badly, according to a post by crypto researcher Coin98 Analytics on the X social media platform.
