#Binance to Delist 5 Altcoins – Here's What You Need to Know


#Binance the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, has announced that it will delist five altcoins from its platform following a routine compliance review. The move is part of Binance's ongoing efforts to ensure that all listed projects meet its standards of quality, security, and regulatory compliance.



Altcoins to Be Delisted



The following cryptocurrencies will be removed from Binance:




  • Aergo (AERGO)




  • AirSwap (AST)




  • BurgerCities (BURGER)




  • COMBO (COMBO)




  • Linear Finance (LINA)






Delisting Timeline


#Binance has laid out a specific schedule for the delisting process:




  • March 26, 2025: Margin trading (cross and isolated) for the affected tokens will be suspended.




  • March 27, 2025: Futures contracts for AERGO, COMBO, and LINA will be closed and settled.




  • March 28, 2025: All spot trading pairs involving these tokens will be removed at 03:00 a.m. UTC. Open orders will be automatically canceled.




  • March 29, 2025: Deposits for these assets will no longer be accepted.




  • May 27, 2025: Withdrawals for the delisted tokens will be allowed until this date.




Reasons for Delisting #Binance


According to Binance, the decision to delist these tokens is based on several factors, including:




  • Low trading volume and liquidity




  • Reduced project team activity or development




  • Failure to meet security and regulatory standards




  • Poor community engagement or stagnant ecosystem growth




Market Impact


Following the announcement, the prices of the affected tokens saw a sharp decline:




  • BURGER: -48%




  • LINA: -32%




  • AST: -28%




  • COMBO: -20%




  • AERGO: -6%




This drop highlights how sensitive smaller altcoins can be to major exchange actions like delisting.


Aergo Responds


The Aergo team issued a statement expressing disappointment over Binance's decision, noting that they were not notified in advance. However, they reassured the community that AERGO will remain listed on other exchanges such as Coinbase, Bithumb, Upbit, OKX, KuCoin, and Gate.io, and that development will continue as planned.


New ‘Vote to Delist’ Feature by #Binance


In a related move, Binance is launching a new Vote to Delist feature, allowing the community to nominate projects they believe should be removed from the exchange. However, the five projects mentioned above were not subject to this new mechanism.


What Should Users Do?


If you hold any of the affected tokens, consider taking the following actions:




  • Review your holdings and take action before trading and withdrawal deadlines.




  • Withdraw or transfer the tokens to other exchanges where they are still supported.




  • Stay updated with official announcements from Binance for further changes or support details.
