The cryptocurrency market has taken a bearish turn this week, and Binance‘s announcement to delist three altcoins from its futures trading has only added to the downward pressure. Following the news, the prices of the affected tokens—MAVIA, OMG, and BOND—experienced sharp declines.
Binance Announces Delisting of MAVIA, OMG, and BOND Futures
In a recent update, Binance confirmed it will remove MAVIAUSDT, OMGUSDT, and BONDUSDT perpetual contracts from its USDⓈ-M Futures platform. According to the announcement, all positions will be automatically settled, and the contracts will be delisted at 12:00 PM UTC on December 16, 2024.
Binance advised users to close their open positions before the deadline to avoid automatic settlement. Starting at 11:30 AM UTC on December 16, 2024, users will no longer be able to open new positions in these contracts.
