Binance Lists Sign (SIGN) Token, 1.2 Billion Available for Trading

Binance has announced the addition of Sign (SIGN) to its platform, marking it as the 16th project in its HODLer Airdrops Program. The token will be listed on Binance Spot on April 28, 2025, at 11:00 (UTC), following a retroactive airdrop of 200 million SIGN tokens to eligible users who staked BNB to Simple Earn or On-Chain Yields between April 15 and 19, 2025. The airdrop represents 2% of the total supply of 10 billion SIGN tokens, with an additional 1.5% allocated to market-making incentives three months after the listing. At launch, 12% of the circulating supply, equivalent to 1.2 billion SIGN tokens, will be made available for trading.

SIGN will be available for trading against USDT, USDC, BNB, FDUSD, and TRY, and carries a Seed Tag due to its early-stage status. Spot Algo Orders, Trading Bots, and Copy Trading features will also be enabled progressively after the listing. The token will be available for early access trading on Binance Alpha at 10:00 (UTC) on April 28, 2025. After the official spot listing, Alpha trading will end, but users can transfer their tokens to Spot accounts. Binance has announced that it did not charge a listing fee for SIGN, consistent with its backing of early-stage infrastructure efforts.

Sign (SIGN) is more than just a token; it serves as global infrastructure for decentralized identity and credential verification. The ecosystem includes the Sign Protocol, an omnichain attestation layer for dApps such as EthSign and SignPass, TokenTable, a smart contract platform that manages airdrops, vesting, and unlocks, EthSign, the First On-Chain E-Signature App, and SignPass, for government and enterprise-grade verification in blockchain-native identity. The native token $SIGN serves as a universal gas token, a community incentive, and a governance tool for all services. Long-term token holders play a key role in influencing governance and the direction of the ecosystem.

SIGN is already powering national digital ID systems in several countries, including the UAE, Thailand, and sierra Leone. There are also plans to expand to more than 20 countries, including Barbados and Singapore. The project has seen significant traction, with $15 million in sales booked for 2024, exceeding capital raised. Sign Protocol adoption has soared, now supporting 400,000 schemas and over 6 million attestations—up from just 4,000 last year. TokenTable has successfully distributed over 4 billion tokens to 40M+ wallets, processing massive airdrops and unlocks with flexibility and security. The momentum has also attracted high-profile investors, with Sign raising $14M in 2022 led by Sequoia Capital and another $16M by YZi Labs in 2025, bringing the funding total to $32M.

To be eligible for the SIGN airdrop, users need to have staked BNB to either Simple Earn (Flexible/Locked) or On-Chain Yields during the campaign period. Binance rewards are calculated using hourly average balance snapshots taken at random intervals. The rewards will automatically come into your Spot Account within 24 hours after the airdrop announcement. Each user is subject to a maximum reward cap to ensure fair distribution. No individual user can receive more than 4% of the total distribution, regardless of how much BNB they hold. A few users—specifically those in blocked countries—are considered ineligible.

Binance's decision to list SIGN and provide a retroactive airdrop to eligible users highlights its commitment to supporting early-stage infrastructure projects. The airdrop not only rewards long-term BNB holders but also introduces a new token with real-world applications and a growing ecosystem. The listing of SIGN on Binance Spot is expected to increase its visibility and accessibility, potentially driving further adoption and growth in the decentralized identity and credential verification space. The project's expansion into more countries and its successful distribution of tokens through TokenTable demonstrate its potential to become a key player in the blockchain infrastructure landscape.
