Binance, one of the world's largest cryptocurrency exchanges, has announced a series of delistings affecting its margin and spot trading platforms. The most significant action is the removal of the Ardor (ARDR) token from its margin trading services.
Effective March 12, 2026, at 09:00 (UTC), ARDR will be delisted as a borrowable asset from the Cross Margin market. Simultaneously, the ARDR/USDT trading pair will be removed from both the Cross Margin and Isolated Margin markets. The exchange has advised users to close all open ARDR margin positions, repay any outstanding debts, and transfer their ARDR assets out of margin accounts before the deadline to avoid potential losses.
In a separate move affecting its spot market, Binance will delist four trading pairs on March 13, 2026, at 03:00 (UTC). The pairs being removed are DODO/BTC and GMT/EUR. The exchange stated that these periodic reviews and subsequent delistings are based on factors such as poor liquidity, low trading volume, and overall market risk management.
Contrasting the removals, Binance also announced new listings and integrations. The exchange will support the integration of Nillion (NIL) via the Ethereum ERC-20 network, suspending deposits and withdrawals of the mainnet NIL tokens on March 20. Furthermore, Binance Margin is adding new trading pairs for major cryptocurrencies, including NEAR/USD1, BCH/U, NEAR/U, and TRX/U, starting March 10.
Market experts emphasize that such listing and delisting decisions can directly impact investors' trading strategies, particularly in leveraged markets. Binance routinely cautions users to monitor official announcements closely and practice stringent risk management, especially when engaging in margin trading.
