Two major cryptocurrency exchanges, Binance and Bithumb, have announced the delisting of several low-liquidity trading pairs as part of routine market reviews. Binance, the world's largest exchange, will suspend trading for ten spot pairs on April 17, 2026, at 06:00 UTC. The affected pairs are ARB/EUR, BANANA/FDUSD, Bitcoin/TUSD, CYBER/BTC, Ethereum/TUSD, ICP/FDUSD, RLC/ETH, TIA/BTC, TRUMP/EUR, and WIF/EUR.
The exchange cited factors including low liquidity, insufficient trading volume, and overall market conditions as reasons for the removal. Binance clarified that the delisting only applies to these specific pairs and that the underlying tokens will remain available for trading on other pairs on the platform. Users were advised to review and close any open orders on these pairs before the deadline to avoid losses.
Separately, South Korean exchange Bithumb announced it will delist three tokens entirely: WITCH, TALK, and HVH. Trading for these assets will cease on May 18, 2026, at 15:00 local time, with a withdrawal deadline set for June 18, 2026. The decision was based on a risk assessment by the Digital Asset Exchanges Joint Advisory Board (DAXA), which had previously flagged the tokens with a "trading alert" status. Bithumb stated that unresolved risks led to the final delisting decision and warned that technical support for related project updates will also end after the withdrawal period.
