Binance said in an official exchange notice that it will delist Arena-Z (A2Z), Ampleforth Governance Token (FORTH), Hooked Protocol (HOOK), IDEX (IDEX), Loopring (LRC), Neutron (NTRN), Radiant Capital (RDNT) and Solar (SXP) from all spot trading pairs at 03:00 UTC on April 1.
The move follows Binance’s periodic asset reviews, where the exchange says it evaluates tokens based on development activity, liquidity, network stability, responsiveness to due diligence requests, tokenomics changes, regulatory requirements and broader community sentiment.
Binance did not single out a token-by-token reason for each delisting. Instead, it pointed to its standing review framework, which focuses on whether listed assets continue to meet the platform’s standards and industry requirements.
That matters because delistings are often less about one headline event and more about a combination of weakening liquidity, lower development quality, operational risk, governance changes or reduced confidence that a token still fits the exchange’s listing threshold. Once an exchange decides that balance has shifted, the effect usually spreads beyond spot markets into the rest of the trading stack.
The most important part of the notice is how broad the shutdown is.
Binance Futures will close all positions and automatically settle contracts tied to the affected tokens at 09:00 UTC on March 24. New positions will no longer be allowed from 08:30 UTC the same day.
Binance Margin will also suspend borrowings on the affected cross-margin and isolated-margin products at 06:00 UTC on March 19, with full margin delisting scheduled for 10:00 UTC on March 24. That process includes position closures, order cancellations and asset sales where needed to repay liabilities.
This is where delistings become more than a simple trading-pair removal. Once leverage products are wound down, liquidity can thin further and forced position adjustments can add pressure around the shutdown window.
Binance Spot Copy Trading will delist the affected spot pairs at 03:00 UTC on March 25. Outstanding assets may be force-sold at market price or moved to Spot Accounts if the amount is too small to sell.
Trading Bots support for the affected spot pairs will end when spot trading stops on April 1. Binance Simple Earn will delist the tokens after 07:00 UTC on March 25, with flexible and locked positions either redeemed manually beforehand or automatically redeemed and transferred to Spot Accounts.
That sequence matters because it cuts off automated and yield-linked demand before the final spot cutoff. When multiple support layers are removed in stages, market depth can deteriorate well before the headline delisting date.
Binance Pay will delist the tokens at 03:00 UTC on March 24. Binance Buy & Sell Crypto will remove them even earlier, at 03:00 UTC on March 19.
Binance Convert will delist the affected tokens and associated pairs at 02:00 UTC on April 1, while Convert Low-Value Assets will remove them at 02:00 UTC on March 31. Binance Gift Card support ends at 03:00 UTC on April 1.
The exchange is also stopping mining support for the affected tokens through Binance Pool at 03:00 UTC on March 24 and closing outstanding VIP Loan and Flexible Loan positions involving the tokens at 07:00 UTC the same day.
After 03:00 UTC on April 2, deposits of the affected tokens will no longer be credited to user accounts. Withdrawals will no longer be supported after 03:00 UTC on June 1.
Binance also said delisted tokens may be converted into stablecoins on behalf of users after 03:00 UTC on June 2, though it noted that such conversion is not guaranteed and would be announced separately where applicable.
For account holders, that creates a clear timeline. Trading access disappears first, then product support is removed across the exchange, then deposits stop, and finally withdrawals close unless Binance keeps them open due to network availability or other operational reasons.
Exchange delistings usually affect price formation through liquidity withdrawal more than through narrative alone. Once spot pairs are removed and derivatives, margin and automated products are unwound, routing options shrink and remaining holders often have fewer deep venues left for execution.
That can increase slippage, reduce institutional interest and make price discovery less efficient. It also means that the market reaction to a delisting can start well before the final trading halt, especially when leveraged products and copy-trading flows are forced to exit on an earlier schedule.
For the eight affected tokens, the key issue now is not only whether they remain listed elsewhere. It is whether they can retain enough liquidity, custody support and market access after Binance removes a large part of the exchange infrastructure around them.
