Binance Futures announced it will delist multiple USDⓈ-M perpetual futures contracts as part of updating its product portfolio and risk management framework.
According to the official statement from the exchange, all open positions in the 42USDT, COMMONUSDT, CUDISUSDT, and EPTUSDT perpetual contracts will be closed on January 30, 2026, at 12:00 PM, and an automatic settlement process will be implemented. Following the completion of settlement, these contracts will be completely removed from the Binance Futures platform.
Binance has advised users to manually close their open positions before the specified date to mitigate potential risks. Furthermore, new order placement for these contracts will be prohibited from 11:30 AM on January 30, 2026. This process constitutes an official notification issued under Binance Exchange Rule 17.
The statement also highlighted important risks to be aware of in the final hour before the settlement deadline. It was noted that the Futures Insurance Fund would not be used to support liquidation processes during this period.
It was stated that liquidations triggered within the last hour will be presented to the market as a one-time “Immediate or Cancel” (IOCO) order. If, after this transaction, the assets in the user’s account are sufficient to cover the maintenance margin, the liquidation will be stopped; otherwise, the remaining positions will be closed using the automatic leverage reduction (ADL) mechanism.
Binance Futures also announced that it may take additional measures to protect users in highly volatile market conditions. These measures include adjusting maximum leverage ratios, position limits, and maintenance margins, updating funding rates, and making changes to price index components. The exchange also reminded users that in case of any translation discrepancies, the original English text should be considered the primary source.
