Regarding the recent widely circulated interview with "former Binance listing manager Chase," He Yi clarified that Chase is not the listing manager, but rather in BD (Business Development)."The Binance project analysis and DD (due diligence) listing team does not communicate with the project parties; all contract terms are handled by BD, but BD does not have decision-making power. Therefore, each BD needs to connect with countless projects. Listing and BD belong to two different teams with different reporting lines. Thank you all for your attention. Having different perspectives can help everyone make judgments, which is a good thing. There is no need to overinterpret yesterday's ticket boarding today's ship."ChainCatcher previously reported that former Binance listing manager Chase stated in an interview, "The Binance listing team has a total of more than a dozen people, with 4 of us, including myself, who can actually interact with projects. In my two and a half years of employment, I have seen over 1,000 crypto projects, and I estimate that around 100 projects will have their tokens listed on Binance (including Alpha) by 2025. The proportion of projects that can be listed after communicating with the founders is about 5% to 10%. Bitcoin will definitely set a historical high in 2026."
