Binance Streamlines Offerings: Delisting Select Altcoins in February 2025

In February 2025, Binance conducted a series of delistings to simplify its trading platform. The delistings, conducted on February 6th, 17th, and 24th, consisted of delisting some altcoins and trading pairs as part of the process of maintaining market quality and trading efficiency. Low liquidity, trading volume, and project commitment were the determinants of the delistings.

The delistings impacted several tokens, i.e., AMB, CLV, STMX, VITE, HMSTR, SAGA, ILV, LTO, MDT, QI, and TLM. Some trading pairs, e.g., AMB/USDT, CLV/BTC, and HMSTR/FDUSD, were removed from spot and margin trading. Binance has advised users to close positions, withdraw funds, and adjust trading strategies to avoid losses related to the delisted pairs.

While the removal of some trading pairs does not necessarily imply the tokens are no longer listed on Binance, the users should be made aware of the developments. They are still able to swap the tokens via other available pairs. The move by Binance is a reflection of an industry trend of exchanges streamlining their listings in a bid to create more efficient markets and enhance the trading experience.
