Binance has launched DoubleZero (2Z) as its 48th HODLer Airdrop project, distributing 35 million tokens to BNB holders who staked or locked BNB through Simple Earn or On-Chain Yields between September 26–28, 2025. Trading for 2Z commenced on October 2, 2025, at 13:00 UTC on Binance, with spot pairs including 2Z/USDT, 2Z/USDC, 2Z/BNB, 2Z/FDUSD, and 2Z/TRY. Deposits opened at 05:00 UTC the same day.
The circulating supply at launch is 3.47 billion tokens (34.71% of the total 10 billion supply), and Binance attached a Seed Tag to 2Z, flagging it as innovative but high-risk. No listing fee was charged, underscoring Binance's support for infrastructure projects. An additional 5 million tokens are allocated for post-trading marketing.
DoubleZero is built on Solana and aims to deliver a high-speed global infrastructure network for blockchain validators and distributed systems, addressing latency, reliability, and scalability. The 2Z token has utility in paying for bandwidth, incentivizing providers, funding security, and future staking and governance.
Concurrently, 2Z secured listings on Binance Alpha, Upbit, and Bitget, with Binance Futures launching a perpetual contract offering up to 50x leverage. The project received a no-action letter from the U.S. SEC on September 29, 2025, confirming it falls outside securities laws, enhancing regulatory clarity. The mainnet-beta launched alongside, with a total airdrop allocation of 1.28 billion tokens (12.8% of supply).
Tokenomics feature a hybrid model of inflationary minting for validator incentives and deflationary burning to balance supply. Early analysts speculate a starting price range of $0.05–$0.10, with volatility expected due to airdrop selling pressure. Backed by investors like Dragonfly Capital and Multicoin Capital, DoubleZero positions itself as a utility-driven token in the DePin sector.
