The project, launched on December 17, aims to assist users in exploring and investing in early-stage cryptocurrencies.

The pool of selected tokens is curated based on Binance’s industry expertise, advanced analytics, community interest, and market trends.

From December 18 to 20, the exchange plans to add five coins daily to the platform. Customers will have 24 hours to explore project details and use the quick buy feature to acquire tokens. 

Some of these tokens may be considered by Binance for future listing, though no guarantees are provided.
