BNB Surges Ahead of Arkham (ARKM) Token Sale
Crypto exchange Binance announced its 32nd IEO on its native launchpad — the Arkham (ARKM) token sale — on Monday. ARKM will be the native token of Arkham Intel Exchange, a crypto data marketplace of Arkham Intelligence, a renowned blockchain intelligence platform. With the motto to “deanonymize the blockchain,” this marketplace enables users to trade on-chain data.
On July 18, the ARKM token allocation to users, based on the count of the locked BNB, will be determined. To participate in this, users will have to accumulate and lock in Binance Coin (BNB).
