Redacted (RDAC) Trading Now Live on Binance

Officially launched trading for Redacted (RDAC) on May 13, 2025. RDAC debuted exclusively on the Binance platform

Binance, one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges, has officially launched trading for Redacted (RDAC) at 10:00 UTC on May 13, 2025.

RDAC is being launched exclusively on the exchange and is accompanied by a unique, time-sensitive airdrop tied to users’ Alpha Points—an internal rewards metric.

This event continues Binance’s trend of gamifying token launches, adding new layers to how user participation and loyalty are rewarded.

At the time of listing, there was minimal information available on what exactly the token does, aside from its name and ticker.

For many traders, this lack of detail might be surprising given the usual reporting on new projects. However, for active Binance users, the listing presented a new opportunity—one that can be claimed through the Alpha Points program.

What Are Alpha Points and Who Qualifies?

Alpha Points are part of Binance’s internal loyalty system. Users can accumulate points by participating in exchange activities such as trading, staking, and joining events. These points can then be used in various promotions—like this one.

There are two levels of eligibility for the Alpha Points reward:

Claiming the reward deducts 15 Alpha Points from the user’s total and must be completed within 24 hours of the event starting at 10:00 UTC on May 14. The claiming page can be accessed via the Binance App’s search feature.

The application itself is gray and white with minimal branding, and the claim button is largely unhighlighted.

This contrasts sharply with the bright colors and large text used to highlight the new token in the main application.

Finally, the application warns users that the claimed tokens will not be immediately visible in their balances and that they should allow up to 24 hours for the transfer to complete.

This event continues a trend of exchanges using in-app engagement tools to drive user behavior, loyalty, and daily app interaction.

This model also has drawbacks, as the narrow claim window and complex requirements may leave some users who engaged in activity unable to claim the reward.

Additionally, those unfamiliar with Alpha Points may find the process confusing, especially without any advance notice or heads-up from the exchange.

The note on the application claims that the tokens will be credited to users’ balances within 24 hours of successful claiming.

However, considering the time sensitivity of the event and the fact that it is expiring in less than a day, it remains to be seen if those who miss the window will still have the opportunity to claim the tokens.

This event also continues Binance’s strategy of shifting away from broadly accessible token launches to more tightly managed and app-exclusive incentives.

With limited public information on the project itself, users may want to remain cautious. Until the project shares more on its roadmap or utility, any investment, airdrop or otherwise, carries some speculative risk.
