Binance Delisting Litecoin (LTC) And Dogecoin (DOGE) BUSD Pairs

Crypto exchange Binance in an official announcement on August 17 revealed the plan to delist USDⓈ-M LTCBUSD and DOGEBUSD perpetual contracts. Users are requested to make necessary changes as Binance will close all positions and conduct an automatic settlement on August 24 at 09:00 UTC.

In addition, Binance will adjust the leverage and margin tiers of LTCBUSD and DOGEBUSD perpetual contracts at 12.30 UTC today. The move has come in response to the crypto exchange’s strategy to slowly decrease BUSD pairs on the platform.

Binance is mainly reducing leverage for both Litecoin (LTC) And Dogecoin (DOGE) perpetual contacts. Users are not allowed to open new positions for LTCBUSD and DOGEBUSD from 08:30 UTC on August 24.

Last week, Binance announced the delisting of Cardano (ADA) and Polygon (MATIC) perpetual contacts. The exchange is slowly delisting all perpetual contacts in BUSD pairs.
