Key Takeaways:

Billions of dollars in Bitcoin remain unspent — a potential resource for securing other blockchain networks.
Trading of BABY will start on April 10, 2025, at 18:00 (ET), with five trading pairs: BABY/USDT, BABY/USDC, BABY/BNB, BABY/FDUSD, and BABY/TRY.
Eligible holders of BNB in Simple Earn or On-Chain Yields will get an automatic airdrop.

Binance has introduced Babylon (BABY) as the latest addition to its HODLer Airdrops program. Babylon is a protocol designed for native, self-custodial Bitcoin staking. The platform lets users stake BTC directly on the Bitcoin network while retaining self-custody. Its mission is to secure PoS blockchains by overcoming a long-standing technical limitation — a challenge Babylon aims to tackle at scale.

How BNB Holders Benefit from the BABY Airdrop

We have BABY airdrop, which rewards BNB holders who have joined either Simple Earn (Flexible or Locked) or On-Chain Yields products from 7th March 2025 to 13th March 2025 (ET8 timezone). Binance used random hourly snapshots throughout the airdrop period to calculate users’ average BNB balances. If any user’s average BNB surpasses 4% of the total pool, the eligible rewards will be limited to 4% to ensure fairness.

A total of 75 million BABY tokens (0.75% of its Genesis supply of 10 billion) have been allocated to this round of airdrops. 121.6 million BABY are reserved for post-launch marketing campaigns.

BABY will be automatically airdropped into the Spot Wallet of qualified users 24 hours after the event concludes. No manual claiming process is required and passive participants don’t need to do anything.

BABY Binance Listing: Tokens Description and Trading Dates

After the airdrop, BABY will be listed on Binance Spot on April 10, 2025, 18:00 (ET). Trading will open for five pairs: BABY/USDT, BABY/USDC, BABY/BNB, BABY/FDUSD, and BABY/TRY.

Initial circulating supply is set at 2.29 billion BABY, which equals 22.9% of total supply. The listing fee is zero, and deposits for BABY open six hours after the initial announcement. A full research report will also be released within 24 hours.

The token will feature a “Seed Tag”, which identifies it as an early-stage crypto project. Binance employs this designation to indicate the possibility of volatility and immaturity of the product — the same warning used when projects like Aevo (AEVO) and Tensor (TNSR) were first listed.

Why Babylon Matters: Recontextualizing Bitcoin Utility

Babylon is not your usual PoS solution. It rethinks whether Bitcoin’s unused value can be put to work in making the broader blockchain ecosystem secure. In this fashion, extending Bitcoin functionality and adding more use cases, Bitcoin holders have always been limited in staking and had to give their Bitcoin to centralized actors or switch to wrapped tokens. Babylon solves this with native, self-custodial BTC staking, which enables holders to remain in control of their own assets.

This new model has attracted interest for its ability to provide decentralized, trustless, security-as-a-service to new blockchains, extending Bitcoin’s security model to them. For instance, if smaller PoS chains chose to integrate Babylon, they could benefit from Bitcoin’s security guarantees without having to depend on their validator set alone — a big boost for network resilience.

Who Is Allowed To Participate — And Who Is Not

Note that you must verify your account and abide by regional eligibility regulations to participate in HODLer Airdrops. Users from countries such as the U.S., U.K., Canada, Japan, and others are prohibited from participating because of regulatory hurdles. Additionally, users in France, Spain, Belgium, Italy, Poland and Sweden will also be unable to deposit or withdraw BABY but will still be able to trade the token once listing goes live.

Similar to previous HODLer Airdrops, assets that were collateralized through Binance Loans (Flexible Rate) will be excluded. The airdrop calculation does support Staked Lista BNB (slisBNB) and collateral BNB (clisBNB) in the case of wallet Binance Segregated Keyless Wallets.

After The Binance Listing, The Next Milestones for BABY

By including BABY in its 14th HODLer Airdrop, Binance continues its push to spotlight utility-first projects. The game’s next marketing campaigns, releasing the remaining 121.6 million BABY tokens over the course of six months, should drive adoption and lead to more in-depth engagement in the Babylon ecosystem.

Within 24 hours of listing, Trading Bots and Spot Copy Trading for BABY pairs will go live, and Spot Algo Orders will be available from day one.

The project’s official websites and whitepaper are now live, and social channels like @babylonlabs_io and @bbn_foundation have begun teasing milestones ahead of the mainnet launch.

For crypto investors wanting access to early-stage projects anchored in Bitcoin utility, Babylon could be an interesting case study in what decentralized innovation can be when Bitcoin is given more than a HODL.
