Binance announced it postponed the start of Falcon Finance (FF) trading from 1 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. UTC on September 29, 2025, due to a delay in the on-chain airdrop.

The listing change is described as a narrow, operational delay tied to on-chain airdrop timing for FF. Binance moved the spot trading start by 30 minutes on September 29, 2025, shifting from 13:00 to 13:30 UTC to align airdrop settlement with market opening. Such short deferrals are common when token distribution mechanics intersect with exchange readiness checks and wallet crediting windows. The update aims to preserve user expectations while minimizing market disruption, indicating that core listing parameters remain unchanged and only the precise go-live timestamp was adjusted to accommodate final airdrop processing.

According to Binance’s related listing notice, FF spot trading was planned against USDT (Tether), USDC (USD Coin), BNB (Binance Coin), FDUSD (First Digital USD), and TRY (Turkish Lira) pairs with a Seed Tag applied, and deposits opened from September 26, 2025, at 10:00 UTC. The postponement announcement itself was published at September 29, 2025, at 12:50 UTC, specifying the revised start time of 13:30 UTC—quantifying the delay at exactly 30 minutes while leaving pairs and tagging unchanged.

External materials around the airdrop quantify scope and cadence: FF was identified as the 46th project in Binance’s HODLer Airdrops initiative, with 150 million FF (about 1.5% of total supply) earmarked for eligible BNB participants ahead of listing. Aligning distribution completion with the listing window helps ensure recipients can access and potentially trade tokens at market open.
