Binance, one of the cryptocurrency exchanges with the highest trading volume, announced that it will delist 20 different trading pairs traded on the spot market. According to the official announcement published on February 9, 2026, this delisting decision will take effect on February 10, 2026, at 08:00 UTC (11:00 GMT+3). The exchange management cited low liquidity and insufficient trading volume as the primary reasons for this move.
20 Spot Trading Pairs are Being Delisted
The trading pairs included in the delist are listed as follows: ARDR/BTC, BB/BNB, BB/BTC, BERA/BTC, DIA/BTC, FLUX/BTC, GALA/FDUSD, GPS/BNB, GRT/FDUSD, GUN/FDUSD, ICP/ETH, ICX/BTC, KAITO/FDUSD, KERNEL/BNB, MANA/ETH, NOM/FDUSD, REQ/BTC, XNO/BTC, YGG/BTC, and ZRO/BTC. Binance states that these pairs do not offer sufficient depth as a result of periodic market evaluations and increase the risk of price slippage for users.
An important point stands out in the exchange's statement: The delist does not mean that the tokens in question are completely removed from the platform. For example, ARDR will continue to be traded on Binance through different trading pairs (such as ARDR/USDT). However, Spot Trading Bot services associated with the relevant spot trading pairs will also be suspended on the same date and time. Binance specifically reminds users to close their open bot positions in advance and take the necessary risk management steps.
Projects on the Delisted List: Details
Among the delisted projects are some well-known names in the industry. To give a few examples; Ardor (ARDR) stands out as a blockchain-as-a-service platform aiming to solve the scalability problem with its parent-child chain architecture. Offering energy efficiency with its Proof-of-Stake based structure, Ardor caters to different use cases through customizable child chains. The Graph (GRT) is one of the fundamental protocols that enables the indexing of on-chain data in the Web3 ecosystem. The GRT token is used in paying query fees, indexer rewards, and governance processes. Internet Computer (ICP), on the other hand, presents a more ambitious vision aiming to transform the traditional internet infrastructure with a decentralized structure. It provides high-speed transaction and data storage capabilities thanks to Chain Key Technology. LayerZero (ZRO) is a protocol positioned in the field of cross-chain interoperability. Thanks to its Ultra-Light Node architecture, it enables cross-chain messaging and asset transfer without the need for bridges. FLUX, on the other hand, is a decentralized network focusing on Web3 infrastructure, bringing together node operation, staking, and governance processes under a single ecosystem. This decision is noteworthy as Binance's second major delisting step throughout February 2026. Recently, it delisted 20 crypto trading pairs from the spot markets. The delisting of 2 pairs from futures trading also attracted attention. Increased volatility in the relevant tokens can be expected in the short term, as past examples show that investors should exercise caution. Previously, similar delisting announcements have led to sharp declines in some assets, while speculative price jumps have also occurred from time to time. Binance reiterates that it determines its delisting criteria based on development activities, regulatory compliance, liquidity levels, and user feedback. The stock exchange management emphasizes that such steps aim to improve market quality and strengthen user security in the long run.
