Binance LaunchPool are meant as air drops for our retail users, not just for a few whales.
On the bright side, blockchains are transparent… https://t.co/8Xs1oXjfVd
Binance introduced the SUI token, its 33rd project on Binance Launchpool, on April 30. Users can farm Sui’s SUI token on the DPoS layer 1 blockchain by staking their BNB and TUSD into separate pools. The farming of SUI tokens will be accessible for only two days.
A statement from Justin Sun, the main reason for TUSD investment is to enable market-making among major TUSD exchanges that offer liquidity and trading volume, like Binance. In line with his stated policy, Justin Sun won’t take part in any stock market promotions.
Binance CEO additionally clarified that he or any whales are not eligible for airdrops from the Binance Launchpool, which are instead intended for retail users. Justin Sun further indicated that the transfers gave the exchanges enough liquidity and stability for the TUSD pricing.
However, he made a point of leading out that some members had unwittingly joined exchange campaigns. And also he intended to start a refund. In two transactions on May 1, the wallet connected to Justin Sun sent Binance 59 million and 56.1 million TUSD. That is totaling almost $116 million.
