To protect our users and ensure that listed tokens and trading pairs continue to meet the high level of standards we expect, Binance conducts periodic reviews of each listed token and spot/margin trading pair on our platform based on the guidelines stipulated below.
When a listed token or spot/margin trading pair no longer meets these standards, Binance will potentially delist the token or spot/margin trading pair to protect users’ interests.
Delisting means Binance has made the decision to remove a cryptocurrency from its platform and will no longer support trading for that asset. This can happen for various reasons, including failure to meet listing standards, low trading volume, concerns about a project's security or development activity, regulatory requirements, or the project team's request. Once delisted, the token's trading pairs are removed from the exchange.
Binance regularly communicates with the project teams of listed tokens to understand their latest developments, such as their product roadmap, team changes, and more. This includes both positive and negative changes (e.g., unexpected deviations from the project team’s original plans).
During major market events, Binance will also check in with these project teams to understand how they have been impacted. If a project team encounters an incident (e.g., the project was hacked), Binance will also reach out to see if any support is required. After the incident, Binance will conduct a review of how the project team handled the incident, and whether the project team has introduced proper measures to prevent similar incidents from happening.
In addition, we always welcome and value users' feedback and suggestions at Binance. We will conduct investigations and evaluate whether a listed token meets our standards if there is a large number of complaints for a listed token.
Please note:
To protect users and maintain a high quality trading market, Binance conducts periodic reviews of all listed spot/margin trading pairs, and may delist selected spot/margin trading pairs due to multiple factors, such as legal and regulatory concerns, unethical practices, and/or poor liquidity and trading volume.
Please note that the delisting of a spot/margin trading pair does not affect the availability of the tokens on Binance Spot/Margin, where applicable. You can still trade the spot/margin trading pair’s base and quote assets on other trading pair(s) that are available on Binance.
1. What does it mean when a crypto asset is delisted on Binance? What does Binance consider before delisting a token?
Delisting means Binance has made the decision to remove a cryptocurrency from its platform and will no longer support trading for that asset. Once delisted, the token's trading pairs are removed from the exchange.
Binance considers a variety of factors when conducting delisting reviews. Here are some examples:
2. What happens to my crypto assets after a token is delisted?
a) Do I lose my crypto assets when a coin is delisted?
No, Your assets are not lost even after the token you hold is delisted. Binance typically provides a grace period during which you can still withdraw your holdings. You will receive advance notice (usually via email and published announcements) with specific deadlines for withdrawals and any applicable conversion options. After the final deadline, Binance may no longer support deposits or withdrawals for that token.
b) Can I withdraw a delisted coin from Binance?
You may withdraw the delisted token to your external wallets. The cessation of withdrawals generally takes place three months after the corresponding token’s delisting date and time.
Please note: Delisted tokens may be converted into stablecoins on behalf of users after Binance has ceased withdrawals for the corresponding delisted tokens, and the proceeds will be credited to users’ Binance accounts. Before delisted tokens are converted into stablecoins, a separate notification will be made.
c) What should I do when a cryptocurrency is delisted on Binance?
Act promptly. Here's what we recommend:
3. Do you inform project teams before delisting their tokens?
Binance does not disclose any delisting decisions to external parties. However, we regularly contact the project teams of listed tokens to collect information on their latest developments.
4. How can a project team avoid having their token delisted?
Project teams should actively build their products, engage with their communities frequently, and publish a clear product roadmap.
5. Can a delisted coin be listed again on Binance?
Yes, it is possible that a delisted coin be listed again on Binance,, though not guaranteed. A project that has been delisted may be relisted in the future if it addresses the issues that led to its removal and meets Binance's current listing requirements. Each relisting is evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Users can monitor official Binance announcements for any updates on previously delisted assets.
6. What is the difference between delisting a token and delisting a spot/margin trading pair?
Delisting a token will result in the removal of the token from all Binance products and services, which includes all applicable spot/margin trading pairs.
On the other hand, delisting a spot/margin trading pair does not affect the availability of the tokens on Binance Spot/Margin. You can still trade the spot/margin trading pair’s base and quote assets on other trading pair(s) that are available on Binance.
