The crypto market has once again received a major news. On January 2, 2026, a leading exchange officially announced that the FLOW token has been included in the "Monitoring Tag" category, along with four other tokens: ACA, D, and DATA.

This move may seem routine, but it subtly indicates a re-evaluation of the risk ratings for these assets by the exchange. What does the appearance of the monitoring tag signify? Simply put, the exchange has recognized that the volatility and potential risks of these tokens have significantly increased. If their subsequent performance continues to underperform, they may face delisting.

For FLOW, this news is not surprising. Previously, the project experienced a flow of 150 million fake tokens into the market due to KYC vulnerabilities, followed by an announcement to abandon the blockchain rollback plan. A series of negative events have continued to impact market confidence. Investors have become skeptical of the project's governance capabilities, and the token price has come under pressure, even hitting a historic low.

On a psychological level, such risk warnings often accelerate a sell-off. When an exchange publicly labels a token as "high risk," retail investors usually choose to cut losses early or hold off, and institutions will reassess their positions. In the short term, the selling pressure on these monitored tokens may further intensify.
