Binance Adds ACX, LSK and STX to Monitoring Tag, Raising Delisting Risk

Binance has placed Across Protocol (ACX), Lisk (LSK) and Stacks (STX) under its Monitoring Tag after completing its latest review of listed digital assets, putting the three cryptocurrencies under closer scrutiny for potential listing risks.

The update took effect on July 24, 2026. While spot trading and related services remain available, Binance said the tokens now carry a higher level of risk and could face delisting if they fail to meet the exchange’s listing standards in future reviews.

The exchange stressed that adding a Monitoring Tag does not mean a token will automatically be removed from the platform. Instead, it signals that the projects will be monitored more closely than other listed assets.

Why Binance added ACX, LSK and STX to its Monitoring Tag

Binance said projects under the Monitoring Tag are reviewed regularly to determine whether they continue to meet the exchange’s listing requirements. The assessment covers factors such as development activity, team commitment, trading volume, liquidity, network security, smart contract stability and public communication.

The exchange also reviews responses to due diligence requests, changes to token supply or tokenomics, and any signs of fraud, negligence or conduct that could negatively affect the broader crypto market.

Binance did not disclose any project-specific reason for adding ACX, LSK or STX to the list. It also confirmed that all existing trading pairs and related services for the three assets will continue without interruption.

The three crypto projects keep evolving

The Monitoring Tag comes as each project continues to pursue different development plans.

Across Protocol recently approved a restructuring proposal that allows ACX holders to either exchange their tokens for equity in a new U.S. company or accept a USDC buyout. Binance did not link the restructuring to its latest review.

Lisk has continued its transition from an independent layer-1 blockchain to the Optimism Superchain. At the same time, its community debates the future of 100 million LSK tokens, including a proposal to burn part of the supply or place it into a long-term DAO treasury.

Stacks, meanwhile, continues expanding Bitcoin-focused smart contract infrastructure, with STX remaining central to transaction fees, smart contract execution and network rewards.

What the Monitoring Tag could mean for investors

The latest review has already added pressure to the three tokens. Following the announcement, STX fell by more than 10% over the past 24 hours, while ACX and LSK also declined as traders reacted to added regulatory and listing uncertainty.

Meanwhile, Binance recently announced the spot listing of Aerodrome (AERO), adding the Base-based decentralized exchange token to its trading platform with three new trading pairs.

Although Binance has not announced any plans to delist the assets, projects carrying a Monitoring Tag must continue meeting the exchange’s standards. Binance can remove the tag if conditions improve or proceed with delisting if a project no longer satisfies its listing requirements.
