Binance has announced that it will officially list Espresso on its Spot market on February 12, 2026, at 13:00 UTC. The news has already given the token a boost, with prices moving higher shortly after the announcement.
According to Binance, users will be able to start trading Espresso on Spot at that time, while withdrawals will open a day later, on February 13 at 13:00 UTC. The token will carry a seed label, which usually means it’s considered a newer or higher-risk project.
At the same time, Espresso will be removed from Binance Alpha once Spot trading begins. Binance Alpha works as a kind of pre-listing pool, where selected tokens are featured before they move to the main Spot market.
Binance said users don’t need to worry about their balances. Any Espresso tokens held in Binance Alpha accounts will be automatically transferred to users’ Spot accounts within 24 hours of the listing. After that, trading will continue as normal on the Spot platform.
The exchange explained that when a token graduates from Binance Alpha to Spot, it is no longer displayed in the Alpha section. This is part of Binance’s staged launch system, where projects often start in products like Alpha, Launchpool, or Launchpad before moving to full Spot trading with deeper liquidity.
This step-by-step approach allows Binance to test market demand, manage early volatility, and ensure the project meets its internal standards before expanding it into other services like margin or derivatives.
For Espresso, the Spot listing marks an important milestone — and the market reaction suggests investors are already paying close attention.
