Key Dates and Actions for Users

Trading Pair Delisting Schedule

The delisting process for all affected trading pairs will take place between 4:00 PM and 6:00 PM (UTC+8) on June 20, 2025. Users with open orders in these pairs must cancel them before 4:00 PM (UTC+8) on June 20, 2025. The system will automatically cancel any remaining orders after this time. Please note that order cancellations may take 1–3 business days to process.

Deposit and Withdrawal Deadlines

Deposits for the tokens ALCX, NULS, MDT, BORA, CTXC, XNO, VENOM, and RADAR were suspended starting 4:30 PM (UTC+8) on June 16, 2025, and will not be reopened.

The final deadline for withdrawals of these tokens is 4:00 PM (UTC+8) on September 20, 2025.

Understanding Exchange Delistings

Cryptocurrency exchanges periodically review the assets they support to ensure market quality and protect users. This process involves assessing factors like trading volume, liquidity, project development activity, and network security.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if I hold one of these delisted tokens?
You should cancel any open orders before the deadline and either sell the token for another asset or withdraw it to a compatible self-custody wallet before the final withdrawal deadline on September 20, 2025.

Why are these specific trading pairs being delisted?
