Binance will slap a Monitoring Tag on four altcoins next week — ACT, BLUR, PIVX, and QKC — the exchange confirmed. The tag goes live on June 18 and signals that the tokens are under heightened review. But it’s not a delisting notice, and the coins will still trade.
What the Monitoring Tag actually means
The tag is a warning, not a death sentence. Tokens with the Monitoring Tag remain tradable, but users have to click through an extra risk acknowledgment before they can buy or sell. Binance uses a separate process — a dedicated delisting announcement — to actually remove a coin from the platform.
Judging by the criteria Binance lists, the exchange watches trading activity, development progress, network stability, communication from the project team, regulatory compliance, and a handful of broader risk factors. Any of those can trigger the tag.
How it affects trading
The Monitoring Tag tends to shift sentiment fast. Spreads widen, and short-term volatility spikes as traders react to the flag. Some holders dump immediately; others wait to see if the project cleans up its act. But the tag alone doesn’t force a sell-off — it just puts everyone on notice.
For ACT, BLUR, PIVX, and QKC, the next few days will be choppy. Binance hasn’t said why these four were picked, but the tag means the exchange is watching closely.
What traders should do
Treat the tag as a risk flag, not a guaranteed countdown to delisting. Rely on official Binance announcements for actual delistings — not social media chatter or third-party alerts. Projects have been known to shake off the tag before.
Binance has made clear that the Monitoring Tag and delisting are two separate tracks. A token can sit under the tag for months, or it can get pulled quickly. The only way to know for sure is to follow the exchange’s own communications.
The tag list update is set for June 18. Traders holding these coins should check their positions and decide whether the added risk fits their strategy.
