Dear diary, the crypto world has dressed itself in its most dramatic cardigan again. Binance, the world’s largest exchange, has delivered another round of delistings that will make a whole scarf-full of altcoin traders clutch their pearls. And just to prove this isn’t a one-act tragedy, it’s also adding six shiny new trading pairs to Binance Spot. Because nothing says “stability” like a twin plot twist.
Ukrainians Will Feel the Changes
Binance has conducted its usual meticulous rummage through listed spot pairs-checking liquidity, volume, and whether anyone still remembers what COMP stands for. The result? a tidy pruning: BTC/UAH, COMP/BTC, ETC/ETH, MOVE/BNB, PNUT/FDUSD, SHIB/DOGE, TON/BTC, and a few others are being shown the door. Delisting takes effect on January 27, because apparently calendars in crypto markets love a dramatic countdown just as much as we do.
The tokens aren’t banished from Binance Spot entirely; you can still trade the base and quote assets on other pairs that are hanging about on Binance. It’s more of a “date changes its mind but stays in the same bar” situation than a sudden eviction from life as we know it.
This touches Ukrainians fairly close to home. The Ukrainian Hryvnia (UAH) is the official currency, and removing a BTC/UAH path could make the old in-and-out of crypto a touch more fiddly for locals.
In practical terms, folks may need to hop from funds into another fiat before catching a glimpse of Bitcoin’s bright glow, adding a smidge more friction to an already caffeinated process.
As for the market mood, most of the delisted tokens are looking a bit blue today (January 26)-which is predictable theatre when Binance withdraws support. The broader market decline of the past few days is doing most of the heavy lifting on the downward slope, anyway.
The Listing Announcement
In a move that sounds suspiciously like a balancing act, Binance also announced it will broaden Binance Spot with additional options and “enhance users’ trading experience” by adding BNB/U, ETH/U, KGST/U, SOL/U, TRX/USD1, and USD1/U. The reimagined lineup is scheduled for January 27, because symmetry loves a good crypto release date.
U refers to United Stables, a stablecoin that recently made its debut and is pegged to the American dollar. To sweeten the onboarding, Binance has introduced zero maker fees on BNB/U, ETH/U, KGST/U, SOL/U, and USD1/U until further notice. Very generous for people who enjoy the feeling of trading without thinking about the math.
“During the Validity Period, Standard taker fees will apply to regular and VIP 1 users for BNB/U, ETH/U, and SOL/U, and the trading volume of these pairs will count toward regular and VIP 1 users’ VIP tier calculation,” the announcement reads.
