Binance to delist 6 tokens on Aug. 17

Binance will remove Across Protocol, Hashflow, PIVX, Vulcan Forged PYR, Vanar and Viction from spot trading on Aug. 17, 2026, at 03:00 UTC after completing its latest asset review.

The exchange said every spot pair tied to $ACX, HFT, PIVX, PYR, VANRY and VIC will close. Outstanding spot orders will be canceled. Binance did not identify a separate reason for each asset. Instead, it cited its broader review framework, which covers liquidity, development activity, network safety, team conduct, transparency, tokenomics and regulatory changes.

Binance delisting begins with an Aug. 7 futures cutoff

The first major deadline arrives before the spot removal. Binance Futures will prevent users from opening new positions at 08:30 UTC on Aug. 7. It will close and automatically settle remaining contracts at 09:00 UTC. The exchange may also change leverage, margin tiers, funding rates or index components before settlement if markets become unusually volatile.

Loans and several payment services will also close that day. Binance Pool and Binance Pay will stop supporting the assets at 03:00 UTC. VIP Loan and Flexible Loan positions will close at 07:00 UTC, while cross and isolated margin positions will be settled at 10:00 UTC. Margin borrowing will already be suspended from 06:00 UTC on Aug. 4.

Spot Copy Trading will remove the affected pairs on Aug. 10. Remaining assets may be sold at market prices or transferred to users’ spot accounts when they cannot be sold. Simple Earn will redeem flexible and locked positions after 07:00 UTC on the same day and transfer the assets and accrued rewards to spot accounts.

Four Binance delistings followed earlier risk warnings

The decision was preceded by Monitoring Tags on four of the six tokens. Binance added PIVX to the tag list on June 18, followed by PYR and VANRY on July 3. $ACX received the tag on July 24. Binance states that tagged assets carry greater volatility and risk and may be removed if they no longer satisfy its listing standards.

As crypto.news previously reported, the $ACX warning came days before the latest removal decision. Monitoring Tags do not guarantee delisting, but they require users to pass a risk quiz every 90 days and notify holders that the exchange is conducting closer reviews.

In related coverage, Binance removed 20 tokens from its Alpha platform in May while preparing five other assets for spot delisting. The Alpha removals and full spot delistings were separate processes, but both followed reviews against the exchange’s platform standards.

$ACX also entered Binance’s delisting process after Coinbase suspended its trading on July 28. Coinbase said the project team was winding down the token and directed holders to Across documentation.

Across previously proposed replacing its token-based DAO with a U.S. C-corporation. The published plan set out an equity exchange and a USDC buyout at $0.04375. However, legal restrictions apply to the equity option, and the proposal said its estimated timetable could change.

VANRY holders must complete the Base migration themselves

VANRY presents an extra operational issue. Binance said it will not support Vanar’s contract swap. Holders seeking the replacement token must use the project’s migration portal rather than expecting Binance to complete the conversion automatically.

Vanar announced a 1:1 migration to Base and said the new token would have a supply of 10 billion. The project previously told users that participating centralized exchanges would handle the swap automatically. Binance’s new notice confirms that it is not one of those supporting venues.

The exchange will keep current VANRY withdrawals open through Ethereum and Polygon PoS. That gives Binance users a route to remove their tokens before completing the migration through Vanar’s official portal.

Vanar has warned holders to rely only on links distributed through its verified channels. The project advised users to ignore unsolicited messages and never share wallet seed phrases while completing the migration.

Withdrawals remain open until Oct. 17

Binance Convert will remove the six assets at 02:00 UTC on Aug. 17, one hour before spot trading ends. Its low-value asset conversion feature will stop supporting them on Aug. 14. Deposits made after 03:00 UTC on Aug. 18 will not be credited.

Withdrawals will remain available until 03:00 UTC on Oct. 17. Binance may convert balances left on the platform into stablecoins after Oct. 18, but the exchange said that conversion is “not guaranteed.” It will issue another notice where conversion is possible.

When conversion is not feasible, Binance said withdrawals may remain open, subject to network availability. Users should not rely on that possibility because the exchange has not committed to providing an extended withdrawal window.

The removal covers six tokens facing different project conditions rather than one shared event. Binance’s announcement gives users a common timetable but no token-by-token findings. The next confirmed developments will come from project responses, settlement notices and any changes to the withdrawal or migration arrangements.
