Furthermore, it\u2019s essential to note that the affected pairs feature Ethereum<\/a> and BNB as the quote currencies and not the base currencies. According to the recent announcement<\/a>, the trading pairs set to be delisted include:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The decision to delist these pairs is attributed to various factors, such as poor liquidity and trading volume, in alignment with Binance\u2019s commitment to maintaining a high-quality trading environment. However, users are reassured that the removal of a spot trading<\/a> pair does not impact the availability of the respective tokens on Binance Spot.<\/p>\n On the other hand, trading the base and quote assets for these tokens remains possible through other active trading pairs on the platform. Additionally, Binance will terminate Spot Trading Bots services for the delisted pairs at the same time. Moreover, Binance strongly advises users to update or cancel their Spot Trading Bots before the removal of the above-mentioned pairs to mitigate potential losses.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Also Read: JUP Price: Solana-Based Jupiter Token Listing Delayed By Binance, JUP Price Drops 50%<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n On the other hand, all\u2019s not well for Binance in the regulatory domain as it is facing legal actions by various regulatory agencies around the world. The legal clash between Binance and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)<\/a> recently intensified as recent court documents reveal a heightened dispute over evidence production and witness depositions.<\/p>\n The SEC alleges that BAM Trading Services, Binance\u2019s parent company, hasn\u2019t fully complied with requests for information regarding the handling of customer assets. This included probing into asset custody and liquidity, sparked by concerns about undisclosed control mechanisms similar to the FTX scandal<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n BAM\u2019s attorneys counter that the company has met all document production requirements under the consent order, accusing the SEC of burdening BAM with its Temporary Restraining Order and expedited discovery methods. The scope of the SEC\u2019s investigation is now contested, with BAM arguing it exceeds the agreed terms, delving into broad examinations of custody policies beyond asset safety and accounting.<\/p>\n\n
