Cryptocurrency exchange Binance has announced new regulations for margin trading pairs to strengthen user security and maintain the quality of its trading markets.
According to the official announcement, Binance Margin will remove certain margin trading pairs from its platform effective January 30, 2026 at 09:00.
According to the announcement, the following trading pairs will be removed under Cross Margin: KSM/BTC, SNX/BTC, ICX/BTC, DYDX/BTC, HIVE/BTC, 1 INCH/BTC, MANA/BTCAnd LRC/BTC.
Additionally, a larger list of pairs will be disabled on the isolated margin side. Pairs to remove from the isolated margin include KSM/BTC, SNX/BTC, ICX/BTC,SYS/BTC, DYDX/BTC, HIVE/BTC,AR/BTC, 1 INCH/BTC, MANA/BTCAnd LRC/BTC.
Binance emphasized that margin trading pairs are regularly reviewed and these decisions are made based on criteria such as low liquidity, low trading volume, market stability and user protection. The exchange emphasized that removing these pairs is a common practice aimed at improving overall market quality.
Users are advised to close their open positions in the affected currency pairs and repay their debts before the specified date. Otherwise, the system might close transactions automatically, which could lead to unwanted losses for users. Additionally, it will not be possible to open new positions on these currency pairs after the close.
According to experts, Binance’s move aims to create a healthier and more sustainable margin trading environment in crypto markets. Removing risky and low-volume pairs from the system, especially during periods of high volatility, is considered important for investor protection.
