Binance Removes Major GBP Spot Pairs
Crypto exchange Binance in an official announcement on December 22 revealed that it will remove and cease trading of GBP spot pairs. The move comes amid mounting challenges including regulatory burden, heightened scrutiny, and loss of banking partners.
Binance will remove ADA/GBP, BNB/GBP, BTC/GBP, DOGE/GBP, ETH/GBP, GBP/USDT, LINK/GBP, LTC/GBP, MATIC/GBP, SOL/GBP, and XRP/GBP at 03:00 UTC on December 29.
In October, Binance stopped accepting new customers in the UK, in compliance with new FCA regulations restricting promotions from overseas digital asset firms in the country. Moreover, GBP users faced issues in withdrawals and deposits after Binance’s banking partner in the UK ended its operating agreement.
“To protect users and maintain a high quality trading market, Binance conducts periodic reviews of all listed spot trading pairs, and may delist selected spot trading pairs due to multiple factors,” said Binance.
