From GameFi to DeFi: Why BinaryX Rebranded to Four

In a recent interview with Binance News, the Four team, formerly known as BinaryX, discussed the reasons behind their rebranding and their renewed focus on becoming a leading launchpad within the BNB Chain ecosystem. The team also shared their ongoing commitment to advancing the GameFi sector and the broader decentralized finance (DeFi) landscape.From GameFi Pioneer to Leading BNB Chain DeFi Launchpad“The journey began with the launch of CyberDragon in 2021, marking our entry into the GameFi space. We quickly expanded our offerings, introducing the BinaryX DAO and CyberArena in 2022, followed by CyberChess,” the team explained.BinaryX initially gained recognition in the GameFi space by creating engaging games and launching successful initial game offerings (IGOs). As the DeFi sector evolved, the team saw the need to expand its offerings. In 2024, the team took a significant step forward with the launch of Four.meme, a platform designed to support emerging projects in the memecoin space, and it quickly gained traction within the BNB Chain ecosystem. The introduction of the Alpha Boost Program and Telegram Bot also helped provide additional support to these projects. The most notable change came in February 2025 when BinaryX officially rebranded to Four. This rebranding was undertaken to better align with the team’s broader vision for the future of DeFi. Four is now dedicated to strengthening its position as a leading launchpad within the BNB Chain.“While BinaryX established a strong foundation in GameFi, Four represents our evolution into a comprehensive DeFi platform,” the team shared. “This change aligns our brand with our core values of innovation, resilience, and community empowerment.”$FORM as the Core of the Four EcosystemAlong with the new name, Four introduced a new token symbol—$FORM, replacing the previous $BNX. The token swap will occur on a 1:1 basis, ensuring a seamless transition for existing token holders. This move is part of Four’s broader strategy to create a unified brand identity and enhance the overall user experience. The $FORM token is a central pillar of the Four ecosystem. With a capped supply of 580 million tokens, the tokenomics model is designed to maintain scarcity and curb inflation. $FORM serves as a settlement unit, governance token, and utility token, allowing holders to participate in the Four DAO, where they can influence key decisions such as platform proposals and the distribution of dividends and airdrops.Furthermore, $FORM can be earned through active participation in token launches and games, fostering a sense of community and encouraging long-term engagement from token holders. To mitigate inflationary pressures and decentralize selling activity, Four utilizes Four.meme, games, and other applications to encourage developers to create high-quality DeFi products that incorporate $FORM.How Four Is Shaping the Future of DeFi with AI InnovationLooking ahead, the Four team envisions a future where DeFi is more accessible, innovative, and driven by the community. As the DeFi space matures, the team anticipates a shift toward more personalized user experiences and optimized risk management, driven by AI technology. The rise of decentralized scientific funding and collaboration is also expected to unlock new opportunities for research and innovation. “While the 2021 bull run showcased the potential of DeFi, the current phase is about realizing that potential through practical applications and long-term vision,” the team stated.Four is dedicated to supporting the development of AI-driven gaming projects. “We have established the Cyber Incubation Fund, which we use to support promising AI-driven game projects. We believe in fostering the growth of the AI gaming sector and encouraging more entrepreneurial teams like ours to innovate and develop cutting-edge solutions,” the team emphasized.Four and the Future of Memecoins on BNB ChainAs the incubator for Four.meme, the team views memecoins as a key part of the BNB Chain ecosystem. These assets are evolving beyond speculative vehicles to become powerful tools for community engagement, creativity, and introducing new users to DeFi.“The BNB Chain ecosystem provides a fertile ground for memecoins, with its low fees, fast transaction speeds, and vibrant community. We are committed to providing a platform that empowers the next generation of memecoin projects,” the team told Binance News.Read More Binance Will Support the BinaryX (BNX) Token Swap and Rebranding to Four (FORM)BNX Token Launches on Four.meme Platform With Multiple Trading PairsBinaryX Team Proposes Major Token Redistribution And Supply ReductionDisclaimerThis article includes third-party opinions and does not constitute financial advice.
