Event Background: Why Binance Chose GoPlus Security
On March 4, 2025, Binance announced the listing of GoPlus Security (GPS), a Web3 security project, and included it in the 11th HODLer Airdrop Program. This marks the first time Binance has introduced a security-focused token into its airdrop mechanism, signaling the exchange’s strategic investment in Web3 infrastructure.Users who held BNB between February 19 and 24—either through Simple Earn or on-chain yield products—qualified for the GPS airdrop.
GoPlus Security aims to build a decentralized security layer, supporting over 30 blockchain networks with real-time risk detection and malicious asset interception services. As of 2025, its technology has protected more than 12 million wallets and prevented potential losses worth billions of dollars. Binance’s decision to list GPS not only acknowledges its technical capabilities but also reflects the growing demand for Web3 security solutions in the market.
GPS Token Distribution and Airdrop Mechanism
A total of 30 million GPS tokens (3% of total supply) have been allocated for the airdrop, with an initial circulating supply of 1.8134 billion tokens (18.1% of total supply) on the listing day. The tokenomics are structured as follows:
- Total Supply: 10 billion GPS, with no inflation mechanism.
- Distribution Breakdown:
- 60.67% allocated for ecosystem and community:
- 10% for airdrops
- 24.67% for developer incentives
- 7% for liquidity provision
- 39.33% allocated to team and early investors, with a 6-month lockup, followed by linear vesting over two years.
- 60.67% allocated for ecosystem and community:
This allocation model is designed to balance long-term ecosystem growth with early investor rewards, but investors should be cautious about potential sell pressure during future token unlocks.
Technical Highlights: How Web3 Security Infrastructure Works
GoPlus Security’s technical architecture is built around three core functions。Real-time Risk Detection 、Open API Integration and Cross-Chain Compatibility.
Its AI-powered algorithms analyze on-chain transactions to identify phishing contracts and other security threats. The platform’s open APIs enable security modules to be embedded into wallets, exchanges, and other Web3 applications.For example，MetaMask has integrated GoPlus’ risk alert pop-ups，Polygon zkEVM utilizes GoPlus’ security protocol enhancements for Layer 2 networks.
For developers, the GPS open architecture lowers barriers to integrating security tools. While JuCoin’s API documentation offers similar security framework references, GoPlus stands out for its broader cross-chain compatibility, covering Ethereum, Solana, and over 30 other blockchain networks.
Market Reaction and Potential Risks
Short-Term Price Volatility and Trading Surge
After listing on Binance, GPS surged 23% in early trading, peaking at $0.20, with 24-hour trading volume exceeding $120 million. The strong market response underscores investor optimism about the Web3 security sector. However, since GPS carries a “Seed Tag” (high-risk project), institutional investment may be limited.
Long-Term Risk Factors
- Technical Implementation Risks: If security performance fails to meet expectations (e.g., failing to detect high-risk vulnerabilities), it could erode user trust.
- Unlocking Sell Pressure: 39.33% of tokens held by the team and early investors will begin unlocking in Q3 2025, potentially causing price fluctuations.
Industry Impact: A New Benchmark for Web3 Security
The listing of GoPlus Security may accelerate two major trends。The Rise of Web3 Security Tokens and Greater Cross-Chain Collaboration in blockchain security.Its open architecture could foster security standardization across multiple blockchain networks, making integration easier for developers.
For retail investors, participation in such projects should be based on an evaluation of technical utility and token release schedules to avoid unnecessary risks.
