Binance to delist ACX, HFT, PIVX, PYR, VANRY, VIC on Aug 17, 2026
Binance will delist six tokens—ACX, HFT, PIVX, PYR, VANRY, and VIC—from spot trading on Aug 17, 2026. The exchange says trading will be suspended after the cutoff, which can quickly reduce liquidity and widen spreads as traders unwind positions.
The move follows Binance’s “Monitoring Tag” system, used to flag elevated volatility or potential non-compliance. HFT was tagged first on May 22, 2026, then PYR and VANRY on July 3, and ACX on July 24. PIVX had already been removed from Binance Margin and Loan pairs on Apr 17, 2026, suggesting Binance tightened risk exposure earlier. PYR reportedly dropped about 11% after the July 3 tag addition.
For traders, the key action is to manage spot exposure ahead of the Binance delist deadline (sell or transfer to a self-custody wallet/another venue that still lists the assets). Historically, Binance delist events often create short-term liquidity shocks and volatility around the suspension date, followed by potential stabilization once trading ends.
Bearish
This Binance delist is likely to be bearish for the affected tokens in the short term because it removes spot trading, typically causing liquidity to thin out, order books to weaken, and spreads to widen as holders try to exit before the cutoff. Historical Binance delisting cycles also tend to trigger concentrated sell pressure and volatility around the suspension date.
The Monitoring Tag timeline (early warnings like HFT/PYR/VANRY/ACX being flagged earlier, plus PIVX already cut from Margin/Loan pairs) suggests the market may have been repriced beforehand, but the actual spot suspension window can still produce additional downside pressure specifically for ACX, HFT, PIVX, PYR, VANRY, and VIC. Any stabilization after trading ends would likely be secondary and delayed, while the immediate trading-impact risk is high.
