Binance CEO Calls for Sustainable TGE & Airdrop Models to Benefit Retail Investors

Binance CEO Richard Teng recently highlighted the need for improvement in token generation events (TGEs) and airdrops, emphasizing how current models often leave retail investors disadvantaged. He argued that past practices, characterized by low-float launches with high fully diluted valuations (FDVs), fueled short-term speculation instead of fostering true participation and long-term alignment. Teng believes the industry is shifting towards more sustainable approaches. These include launching projects with higher token floats and lower FDVs, along with airdrop initiatives that reward genuine community engagement rather than simply encouraging speculation.
