Massive Overwhelming Response from Investors

Introduction of ARKM Token on Binance Launchpad and Innovation Zone
The ARKM token was made available for sale through Binance Launchpad, the exchange’s platform for initial exchange offerings (IEOs).
Following the token launch, ARKM was listed in Binance’s “innovation zone,” a dedicated category for higher-risk digital assets with low liquidity.
Trading for ARKM is now available in various pairs, including ARKM/BTC, ARKM/USDT, ARKM/TUSD, ARKM/BNB, and ARKM/TRY. Additionally, zero fees are charged for limit orders (maker trades) on ARKM/TUSD.
In addition to the launch on Binance, ARKM tokens can also be acquired through an airdrop for early Arkham users.
ARKM Trading Price Performance
As of Wednesday’s press time, the ARKM token was trading at $0.64 on Binance and Uniswap, a decentralized exchange. The price has seen a significant increase from its initial Launchpad selling price but experienced a decline of nearly 7% during the day.
ARKM is described on its launch page as an “intel-to-earn token powering the transparency of the blockchain with AI.”
Binance’s research team explained that the project aims to incentivize the sourcing of data intelligence at scale and make it accessible to everyone in order to bring greater clarity and transparency to the crypto industry.
