DeAgentAI (AIA) has a quite unique experience — after being delisted from a major exchange, it actually managed to relist. This is extremely rare in the crypto market because once a project is delisted, it’s almost impossible to come back.

The story begins like this. Around 2025, AIA faced internal disagreements among the founders, with one side holding a large amount of tokens and losing contact for a period. To mitigate risks, the project team proactively communicated with a major exchange, initiating a contract upgrade and "old tokens for new tokens" swap, which caused perpetual contracts and some spot trading to be temporarily offline. During that time, market rumors spread wildly, and many people thought the project was doomed or that the team had been "taken down." FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt) sentiment was rampant.

But the subsequent development proved many wrong. The project team resolved the internal disputes, and the new contract’s stability was verified. On September 18, 2025, the official announcement was made that the Alpha spot and perpetual contracts (up to 50x leverage) on that major exchange were relisted. This time, it became the only trading platform supporting it at that moment.

Even more dramatically, by January 2026, contract trading was restored again. The community and KOLs immediately exploded — "Delisted and relisted again, how rare is that?" "Never seen a project come back after being delisted from a major exchange."

Why was AIA able to get this second chance? The core reason is that the project did not run away or manipulate the market; it was just a temporary delisting caused by technical upgrades. Plus, the team continued iterating on the Sui chain, maintaining ecological influence. Behind it all was strong capital support, which made the exchange willing to give a second opportunity. This experience of delisting and rebirth directly fueled recent price performance, and the "rebirth theme" narrative has spread in the market.
