Pepecoin Delisted From Binance Flexible Loans, PEPE Price Drops 15% In Past Week

In a recent announcement, Binance, one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges, revealed that it has delisted PEPE as a borrowable asset on its Flexible Loan platform. The decision comes as part of Binance’s ongoing efforts to ensure the availability of high-quality and reliable assets for its users, which PEPE is not able to fulfill.

Binance Loan Delisting and Repayment Deadline

According to the official statement released by Binance, the delisting of PEPE as a borrowable asset on the Flexible Loan platform will take effect on June 21, 2023, at 08:00 (UTC). This means that users will no longer be able to borrow PEPE through this service.

To avoid potential liquidation, users are strongly advised to repay any outstanding loans before the mentioned deadline. It is worth noting that a 2% liquidation fee will be imposed on applicable cases of liquidation.

Binance Flexible Loan currently supports repayments only in the same cryptocurrency that was borrowed by the user. In this case, users should have need to ensure they have the necessary PEPE funds to repay their loans in a timely manner.
