He Yi Proposes Six Major Improvement Measures
In response to the premature leak of the listing news of the RON token, which caused a token crash, He Yi has proposed six major improvement measures to strengthen internal and external management, enhance monitoring of the listing process, and prevent potential misconduct. The main points include:
感谢今天所有关心币安,热爱币安,支持币安的朋友们,也收到了很多建议,我都有认真一条条看。过去偶尔有关于币安上币信息泄漏的激烈讨论,通常是一些尚未发布代币的项目,社区为了保持热度过度宣传并不鲜见;但今天RONIN上币公告发布后RONIN价格下跌引发了社区激烈讨论,经过内部调查发现是之前集成公…

Enhanced Internal Management
He Yi revealed that the team members involved in the listing process include research teams, business, development, operations, and announcements, and will strengthen internal management and information isolation:
Upon the occurrence of information leakage, a first warning will be issued, and dismissal will follow the second time.
Adjustment of External Collaboration Plans
Huobi will carefully confirm the communication process between business and the team, including project research information, token models, token custody, etc. If the listing information leaks prematurely, the listing will be canceled. If there is still information leakage after the announcement, the listing will be postponed, and further discussion on whether to proceed with the listing will follow.
Enhanced Technical Monitoring
Huobi will enhance its technical monitoring capabilities to prevent the announcement of Huobi, changes in trading pairs, and fund movements from being monitored by on-chain robots.
Public Contact Information
Previously, Huobi hoped to isolate the research and business work of listings, and did not provide public contact information, which made it vulnerable to scammers. Now, Huobi will increase contact information to prevent fraud.
High Rewards for Reporting Violations
He Yi also emphasized that users are welcome to report violations related to listings and other information leaks. Upon verification, a security reward of up to $10,000 to $5 million will be provided.
Handling of Violating Employees
For Huobi employees confirmed to have violated regulations, if they join any project or team in the future, the project will be permanently blacklisted for listing on Huobi, and Huobi will conduct a comprehensive background check on the team.

Ronin $RON Sudden Drop Event
According to reports, the official team of the sidechain Ronin for the blockchain game Axie Infinity released the news of the native token RON being listed on Huobi yesterday, sparking community discussions.
However, due to the recent surge in popularity of the Ronin project and some KOLs discovering the on-chain token consolidation actions taken by Huobi a few weeks ago, the crypto community had long speculated about the possibility of the RON token being listed on Huobi.

As a result, within half an hour of the listing news being released, the token price plummeted from 3.49 to 2.82 US dollars, a drop of nearly 20%, leading the community to question whether it involved insider trading or "wash trading" behavior. He Yi subsequently made a public statement emphasizing adjustments to the listing process.
Prior to this, Ronin experienced a major hack in 2022, losing over 173,600 ETH and 25.5 million USDC, valued at approximately 616 million US dollars at the time.
