South Korean cryptocurrency exchanges Bithumb and Upbit announced delisting and trading warning decisions covering 12 altcoins. Bithumb will end spot trading support for six tokens and has placed four assets on its trading warning list. Upbit added district0x (DNT) and Hive Dollar (HBD) to its own warning list.
The October 16 announcements set different processes in motion for the affected assets. Bithumb’s decision on six tokens sets out the end of trading support, while assets placed on the warning lists remain under review.
Bithumb Announces Delisting Schedule for Six Tokens
Bithumb will end trading support for Azit (AZIT), CUDIS (CUDIS), FANC (FANC), TEMCO (TEMCO), Nestree (EGG), and STAT (STAT). The exchange said the issues that had previously prompted trading warnings for these assets remained unresolved.
According to the official schedule, trading in all six tokens will end on November 16, 2026, at 06:00 UTC. At the same time, Bithumb will disable API trading support for the affected assets and cancel all outstanding buy and sell orders.
Withdrawal support will remain available until December 16, 2026, at 06:00 UTC. This leaves a one-month window between the end of trading and the withdrawal deadline.
The exchange urged users planning to transfer their assets to another platform or a personal wallet to complete address registration in advance. Bithumb noted that address reviews can take time and that the announced schedule may change.
Why Were UOS, MAY, TAVA, and AL Placed on the Warning List?
A separate Bithumb announcement covers Ultra (UOS), Mayflower (MAY), Altava (TAVA), and ArchLoot (AL). The exchange said it had added all four assets to its trading warning list.
The decision was based on market capitalization and trading volume criteria. Bithumb said the assets’ combined market capitalization and trading activity across domestic and international exchanges fell below the thresholds set out in its warning policy.
The exchange scheduled the suspension of deposits for these four assets for October 16 at 07:00 UTC. Its notice identified January 11–15 as the period for a further announcement on whether to extend or lift the warnings, or terminate trading support.
Bithumb said it could lift the warning status if the underlying issues were resolved during the review period. The current decision therefore does not establish a confirmed delisting schedule for UOS, MAY, TAVA, or AL.
Upbit Places DNT and HBD Under Review
Upbit’s trading warnings cover district0x (DNT) and Hive Dollar (HBD). Reports published on October 16 indicated that the exchange had added both tokens to its warning list.
According to sources reporting the announcement, Upbit also suspended deposits for both assets on October 16 at 16:00 Korean time, or 07:00 UTC. The review period is expected to run until the week of November 2–6.
At this stage, the trading warnings for DNT and HBD do not constitute confirmed delisting decisions. Further announcements from the exchange will clarify the review outcome and subsequent trading arrangements.
The key distinction across the two exchanges’ announcements is between a scheduled trading closure and an ongoing review. Bithumb has set an end date for trading in AZIT, CUDIS, FANC, TEMCO, EGG, and STAT; the other six assets remain subject to warning procedures.
Deposit suspensions, trading closures, and withdrawal deadlines also represent separate stages. Users holding the affected assets therefore need to follow each exchange’s individual schedule and subsequent announcements.
