As the curtain falls on 2023, OKX, a leading name in the world of cryptocurrency exchanges, is gearing up for a transformative start to the new year. In a key announcement on December 29, 2023, the exchange shared plans to delist a number of spot trading pairs, signaling a strategic pivot in its operational landscape.
A Focus on a Strong Trading Environment
Removing these pairs from the exchange is part of OKX’s commitment to maintaining a ‘robust spot trading environment.’ According to the OKX Token Delisting/Hiding Guideline, any spot trading pair that does not meet the exchange’s standards will be removed.
What Users Need to Do
Customers who have engaged in transactions with these pairs or hold OKX have notified them. The affected pairs will be delisted on January 4 and January 5, 2024. OKX has advised customers who have placed orders with these pairs before the announcement to cancel them. If not canceled by the customers, OKX will automatically cancel these orders within 1-3 working days.
A Window for Token Withdrawals
Furthermore, OKX has established a grace period until March 5, 2024, for customers to withdraw their tokens. After this deadline, withdrawals of these tokens will be suspended.
