Cryptocurrency exchange Binance has announced new regulations for margin trading pairs to enhance user security and maintain quality in its trading markets.
According to the official announcement, Binance Margin will remove some margin trading pairs from its platform as of 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, 1INCH/BTC, MANA/BTC, and LRC/BTC.
In addition, a wider list of pairs will be disabled on the Isolated Margin side. The pairs to be removed from Isolated Margin include KSM/BTC, SNX/BTC, ICX/BTC, SYS/BTC, DYDX/BTC, HIVE/BTC, AR/BTC, 1INCH/BTC, MANA/BTC, and LRC/BTC.
Binance emphasized that margin trading pairs are regularly reviewed and such decisions are made based on criteria such as low liquidity, weak trading volume, market stability, and user protection. The exchange underlined that the removal of these pairs is a routine practice aimed at improving overall market quality.
Users are advised to close their open positions in the relevant currency pairs and repay their debts before the specified date. Otherwise, the system may automatically close the trades, which could lead to unwanted losses for users. Furthermore, it will not be possible to open new positions in these currency pairs after the closure.
According to experts, Binance’s move aims to create a healthier and more sustainable margin trading environment in the crypto markets. Removing risky and low-volume pairs from the system, especially during periods of high volatility, is considered important for investor protection.
