TRON founder Justin Sun recently claimed that while Binance charged no listing fee for TRX, Coinbase demanded 500 million TRX (approximately $80 million) and a $250 million Bitcoin deposit in Coinbase Custody to enhance its platform’s performance.
Sun’s statement underscores a notable difference in listing requirements between the two major exchanges.
Highlighting other recent listings, Sun mentioned that Scroll offered 5% of its token supply for airdrops upon listing on Binance, and the TON Foundation offered 7.65 million TON tokens for similar promotional initiatives.
These insights from Sun add to an ongoing conversation about transparency in exchange listing fees and requirements, especially for high-profile tokens looking to expand their visibility on major platforms.
