Binance, the main global cryptocurrency exchange, executed a massive block on more than 600 accounts. This measure responds to the use of “bot farms” and automated tools to fraudulently manipulate farming campaigns on its project launch platform, Binance Alpha.
The disciplinary action was specifically recorded between October 13 and 19, 2025, a period in which Binance’s security systems detected patterns of activity that violated its terms of use.
These automated tools sought to exploit token promotions and launches to gain advantages. As an immediate result, The platform began a process of recovery of the airdrops. In addition, he recovered the illicit profits accumulated by the sanctioned accounts, according to advertisement this October 19th.
The statement emphasizes that these bans are permanent in nature, disqualifying accounts from participating in any future campaigns or promotions within the Binance ecosystem.
To strengthen its feedback mechanisms and encourage community vigilance, Binance is also implementing an incentive program. The first user to submit a verified report of fraudulent activity may receive a reward equal to up to 50% of profits recovered from the reported account.
The company encourages users to submit detailed reports, including evidence such as screenshots, UIDs (user identifiers), IP addresses or relevant addresses, through its official reporting link.
This incident is not an isolated event. The recent wave of more than 600 bans adds to a history of thousands of suspensions carried out by Binance, in its constant fight against similar frauds.
A notable example occurred in June, when the platform expelled thousands of accounts who broke the “one user, one account” rule on Alpha, using bots to exploit airdrops and farming in the DeFi sector.
Binance’s initiative seeks to strongly deter automated frauds that distort the equitable distribution of rewards in the growing airdrop boom.
Concern about bot reward concentration is not new. In January 2023, CriptoNoticias reported that Binance introduced the Auto Trading Prevention (STP) feature in its API to combat market manipulation with bots. This tool voids orders and closes API connections that detect fraudulent activity, such as artificial volume inflation.
