Binance Suspends Employee for Insider Trading. What Happened

Binance has terminated an employee for insider trading after discovering they used confidential information for personal gain. The incident involved a post from the official Binance Futures account on X (formerly Twitter) on December 7th. The employee, aware of the post's content in advance, launched a token with a matching name and design just seconds before the announcement was published. Binance labeled this a severe abuse of the employee's position and a violation of the exchange's professional conduct code. The individual was immediately dismissed and is facing further disciplinary measures. The exchange stated it is cooperating with relevant authorities in the employee's jurisdiction and will pursue legal action. The scheme was uncovered following user complaints. Binance's team welcomed the community's vigilance and has distributed $100,000 among the first five informants who reported the issue. Evidence suggests the token in question was "year of yellow fruit." Its launch coincided with a since-deleted post from Binance Futures containing the text: "The year of the yellow fruit and harvest! Plant wisely. Harvest abundantly." The token's price surged over 6000% following the post before crashing dramatically. Binance's own investigation announcement coincided with another sharp, brief price pump for the token.
