The listing will take place on April 21, with EPT/USDT trading enabled on Binance Alpha at 12:00 PM UTC and an EPT/USDT perpetual contract on Binance Futures launched at 1:00 PM UTC the same day. The Futures contract will feature settlement in USDT, a funding rate fixed at ±2.00% and recalculated every 4 hours, 24/7 trading availability, and support for Multi-Assets mode.
Binance will airdrop 3,500 EPT tokens to eligible users who purchased tokens on Alpha between April 11 and 17 (UTC). These tokens will be deposited into their Alpha accounts at 12:10 PM UTC on April 21. This airdrop is designed to incentivize early adopters and promote the token within their networks, potentially driving up user interest and liquidity.
Balance (EPT) is the native token of an AI-powered Web3 gaming and social platform backed by leading investors such as a16z. The platform aims to support AI experiences with Web3 gaming tools and has already gained significant traction, supporting over 180 games and partnering with over 80 Web3 gaming projects. EPT serves as the native token of the platform, used for governance, offering strong incentives, and enabling fast transactions. Users are rewarded for making transactions, providing liquidity, and building applications on the platform.
Binance Alpha, a curated discovery zone within the Binance Wallet, provides early access to exciting Web3 projects before they are listed on the main exchange. The inclusion of EPT on Alpha indicates that Binance views Balance as a formidable competitor in the evolving Web3 gaming and social space. The targeted airdrop campaign and Futures access further emphasize Binance's confidence in the project's potential.
Balance was launched in May 2024 and has since grown to support over 180 games. The platform offers AI-powered digital companions, NFT infrastructure for creators and games, and community-focused development with web3-native tools. In September 2024, Balance raised $30 million from leading investors, further validating the legitimacy and scalability of its roadmap.
The listing of EPT on Binance Alpha and Futures ahead of its Token Generation Event (TGE) is a strategic move by Binance to capitalize on the growing interest in Web3 gaming and social platforms. The airdrop campaign and Futures access are designed to drive speculation and long-term community participation, positioning EPT as a key player in the evolving Web3 landscape.
