- 1 OKX, a leading cryptocurrency exchange, has announced the delisting of 20 coins/ tokens.
- 2 Dash/Monera and Zcash are major crypto to be delisted from the exchange.
- 3 Earlier this month, Binance, one of the biggest crypto exchanges, delisted several trading pairs.
One of the leading centralized cryptocurrency exchanges, OKX, intends to delist around 20 cryptocurrencies in 2024. The exchange has already imposed a ban on depositing these tokens/coins per the available information.
Dash(DASH), Monera(XMR), and Zcash (ZEC) are some major tokens that will be entirely removed from the OKX’s ecosystem by January 5, 2023. However, the exchange did not justify any significant reason behind the delisting.
The exchange notified its users that if they are holding any of them, the last day to withdraw their funds is March 5, 2024.
According to OKX executives, the move is motivated by the exchange’s dedication to uphold a “robust spot trading environment.”
To guarantee ideal market circumstances, the team monitors the performance of every listed trading pair and routinely evaluates each pair’s listing requirements.
Currently, there are 324 currencies and 482 trade pairings listed on the exchange. The exchange has $12.3 Billion in exchange reserves and is in the top 10 exchanges by volume.
Other Major Delistings in 2023
The cryptocurrency exchange Binance declared on December 23 that it will eliminate more spot trading pairings.
The controversy surrounding money laundering at the Bitcoin exchange has prompted the decision to remove margin trading pairs from the market.
The British Pound (GBP) is linked to the elimination of pairs. The two groups mentioned above, which are scheduled to cease trading on December 29, 2023, are Cardano (ADA), Bitcoin (BTC), Dogecoin (DOGE), and XRP.
