Moreover, to ensure holders are clear on the purpose of the network upgrade and hard fork, Binance confirmed to its users that the network upgrade and hard fork would not create new tokens. At the time of writing, the FIRO token registered a 9% spike in price to exchange hands at $1.42 per FIRO token.
