Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, has announced the removal of eight spot trading pairs from its platform. The delisting will take effect at 3:00 a.m. UTC on May 22, according to an official statement from the exchange.
Full List of Delisted Pairs
The affected trading pairs include:
- AVAX/ETH
- CHZ/BTC
- FET/BNB
- IOTA/BTC
- UNI/ETH
- UNI/FDUSD
- XLM/BTC
- XLM/FDUSD
Binance has not provided a specific reason for each delisting, but such actions are typically taken to maintain a healthy trading environment and ensure sufficient liquidity and volume for listed pairs.
What This Means for Traders
Users holding positions in these pairs should close them before the scheduled removal. After the delisting, Binance will cancel all pending trading orders for these pairs automatically. The underlying assets—AVAX, CHZ, FET, IOTA, UNI, and XLM—remain tradeable on Binance through other available pairs, such as AVAX/USDT or UNI/USDT.
Potential Market Impact
Delistings can sometimes lead to short-term price volatility for the affected tokens, as reduced trading options may shift liquidity to alternative pairs. However, Binance’s decision is part of routine maintenance and does not indicate any fundamental issues with the projects themselves.
Conclusion
Traders should review their portfolios and adjust their orders before the May 22 deadline. Binance continues to evaluate its trading pairs periodically, and further updates may follow as market conditions evolve.
FAQs
Q1: Why is Binance delisting these trading pairs?
Binance regularly reviews its listed pairs to ensure adequate liquidity and trading volume. Delistings help maintain a clean and efficient trading environment.

No. Your underlying assets remain in your wallet. Only the specific trading pair is removed. You can still trade those tokens using other available pairs like USDT or BUSD.
Q3: Can I still trade AVAX, UNI, or XLM after the delisting?
Yes. The delisting only affects the pairs listed above. AVAX, UNI, XLM, and other tokens remain available on Binance through other trading pairs.
