Circle and Haskey Capital-backed Huma Finance to be listed on Binance Alpha

HUMA, the native token of RWA-focused PayFi network Huma Finance, is set to make its official exclusive debut on Binance Alpha on May 26.

In a May 26 announcement, Binance confirmed that HUMA will be listed on Binance Alpha, the exchange’s early-access section that showcases trending and promising Web3 projects.

The listing will mark the token’s first official appearance and will go live alongside Huma Finance’s Token Generation Event (TGE), also scheduled for May 26. The exact launch time is yet to be disclosed.

As part of the launch, Binance Alpha will host an exclusive airdrop campaign. Users can claim HUMA tokens using their Alpha Points, Binance’s reward system for early engagement.

It’s important to note that being listed on Binance Alpha doesn’t mean an automatic listing on Binance’s main exchange. However, projects that gain traction, show strong community backing, and maintain liquidity is considered for a spot listing.

According to Huma’s tokenomics, the total supply of HUMA is capped at 10 billion tokens, with 17.33% set to be in circulation at launch.

Of that total supply, 5%, or 500 million HUMA tokens, has been allocated for the Season 1 airdrop. Most of this will go to Liquidity Providers (65%) who supported pools on Huma Institutional and Huma 2.0.

Ecosystem Partners, who contributed to on-chain real yield and protocol growth, will receive 25%, while 10% is reserved for community contributors like content creators, Discord participants, and white hat developers. Additionally, Kaito Yappers will get 0.2% of the supply through Kaito-hosted campaigns.

Most airdrop rewards will be fully unlocked at TGE, except for institutional LPs and ecosystem partners, whose rewards will follow a vesting schedule, with 1/3 unlocking at TGE and the rest over the next six months.

In terms of tokenomics, 31% of the total supply is allocated to support liquidity and ecosystem development, 20.6% is reserved for investors, 19.3% goes to the Huma team and advisors, and 11.1% is held in the protocol treasury.

Tokens allocated to the team and investors will remain locked for the first 12 months, after which they’ll vest gradually over a three-year period. 

As for LP and ecosystem rewards, these will reduce by 7% every quarter, though the rate can be changed through governance depending on the project’s growth and strategy.

What is Huma Finance?

Huma Finance is a Web3 protocol aiming to bring real-world assets (RWAs), such as invoices, payroll, and subscription payments, onto the blockchain. The project focuses on developing a decentralized credit infrastructure known as PayFi, designed to provide financing options based on future income streams.

Rather than relying solely on crypto collateral, Huma enables the tokenization of real income, offering a mechanism for businesses and individuals to access upfront capital against future payments. This approach supports a range of use cases, including income-based lending and subscription financing.

The network is powered by the HUMA token, which serves functions across governance, reward distribution, and transaction processing within its ecosystem. The token is also central to the protocol’s incentive mechanisms, including staking and airdrops.

In 2025, Huma Finance secured $38 million in funding from investors including Circle, HashKey Capital, and the Stellar Development Foundation. The project has also received backing from executives and contributors associated with firms such as Solana Foundation and Distributed Global.
