EP J175257.3-351923 is identified as a candidate black hole low-mass X-ray binary from its FRED outburst profile, persistent hard state, truncated disk spectrum with 217 keV cutoff, and high X-ray-to-optical ratio.
Multi-wavelength data classify the Einstein Probe transient EP250916a as a faint hard-state black hole X-ray binary candidate.
