Binance To Launch ASI Trading Ahead Of FET, OCEAN, & AGIX Merger
Binance will soon debut the trading of the new Artificial Superintelligence (ASI) token on July 5, in anticipation of the merger of Fetch.ai (FET), Ocean Protocol (OCEAN), and SingularityNET (AGIX). Notably, the announcement has gained notable traction as Binance decides to list the token ahead of the merger completion.
For context, the Artificial Superintelligence Alliance plans for a seamless integration of these AI-focused cryptocurrencies on July 5.
Binance To Launch ASI Token Trading
Binance’s decision to support the upcoming ASI token, a product of merging FET, OCEAN, and AGIX, marks a significant step in the evolution of AI cryptocurrencies. Notably, the ASI token merger, initially set for June 13, is now rescheduled to July 15.
However, according to a recent Binance announcement, the ASI token trading will launch on July 5, ahead of the merger date announced by the ASI team. In its announcement, Binance has provided a detailed update on managing the technicalities of this merger.
Meanwhile, in preparation for the merger, Binance will suspend deposits and withdrawals of FET, OCEAN, and AGIX starting July 1. The crypto exchange said that it will handle all technical requirements, ensuring a smooth transition to the ASI token for its users.
Besides, the announcement notes that the trading pairs for FET, OCEAN, and AGIX will be delisted, and all associated orders will be automatically removed. It’s worth noting that the conversion ratios for the tokens are set:
- 1 FET will be equivalent to 1 ASI.
- 1 OCEAN will convert to 0.433226 ASI.
- 1 AGIX will convert to 0.433350 ASI.
These ratios reflect the current valuations and the strategic alignment within the Artificial Superintelligence Alliance. After the merger, Binance will reopen deposits and withdrawals for ASI, effectively phasing out the original tokens from the platform.
