Binance has confirmed it will remove six tokens from spot trading on August 17, 2026, citing a failure to meet its listing standards following a periodic review. The affected tokens are ACX, HFT, PIVX, $PYR, VANRY, and VIC.
The exchange did not single out individual reasons for each project but pointed to its standard evaluation framework, which covers development activity, trading volume, liquidity, network stability, team commitment, community engagement, regulatory compliance, and evidence of unethical conduct. Binance has consistently applied the same criteria across its wave of 2026 delistings.
Several of the six tokens had already attracted closer scrutiny before this announcement. $PYR and VANRY were placed on Binance's Monitoring Tag in early July, a formal warning the exchange uses to flag assets that carry elevated risk and may face delisting if performance does not improve. Earlier in 2026, ALCX, ARDR, NFP, and POND were tagged and later fully delisted, establishing the Monitoring Tag as a reliable early warning signal.
Spot trading for the six tokens stops on August 17, with withdrawals remaining open until October 17. All open trading orders will be canceled automatically once spot trading halts. Users holding any of the six assets are advised to close positions or transfer tokens to another platform before the withdrawal deadline.
The move is part of a broader cleanup Binance has been conducting throughout 2026. The exchange delisted eight tokens from spot trading in April following a periodic review of listing standards, and removed a further four, including ALCX, ARDR, NFP, and POND, effective July 10, after another asset quality review. Binance has stressed that maintaining high listing standards remains a core priority, noting that when a coin no longer meets those standards, or the market landscape changes, it conducts an in-depth assessment and may proceed with delisting to protect users.
