The globe’s largest crypto exchange by trading volume has lowered their tolerance for subpar crypto projects, eliminating a bunch of low-cap meme coins from the platform. The lists starts with WIZARD & SHOGGOTH, two futuristic-style meme coins, led by Frog-On-Solana (FWOG).

Semi-Utility Coins, Not Just Memes Didn’t Make The Cut

These tokens were featured on Binance’s Alpha services & will continue to be tradeable there – customers can convert to other cryptos after the trading pairs get erased. Other meme coins in this list Giants Protocol (G) and PORT3 are somewhat presented as ‘utility coins’, but still don’t make quality standard.

Surely, that’s mostly because of the waning trade volumes, but the lack of social community engagement also plays a key part. Binance explained prioritizing user protection was the main reason for this change, warning that Binance Alpha tokens tend to pose a higher risk of price negative fluctuations.

The other delisted meme coins are UFD, BRIC, UPTOP, XNAP, MORE, BOMB & BOOST – most of these saw over 90% drops in trading volumes since November, 2025. The general meme coin section took a 4% downturn on Thursday, now with $43 billion at hand in global market cap, says CoinGecko data.

Memecoin-tied trading volumes are mostly garnered by Dogecoin (DOGE), PEPE Token (PEPE) & Pump.Fun’s native FUN token. With $4,007,162,290 on Thursday, the top dog coin DOGE takes up $1.07 billion of this figure, while low-caps continue to see little to no action outside of Pump.Fun’s ecosystem.
