Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, has rolled out a fresh update on its trading offerings, confirming both a new listing and the removal of underperforming pairs as part of its periodic market review strategy. The move underscores Binance’s ongoing commitment to ensuring liquidity, security, and a user-friendly trading environment.
New Listing: BFUSD/USDT
The platform revealed that the BFUSD/USDT trading pair will officially go live on August 13, 2025, at 14:00 UTC. To celebrate the launch, Binance is offering zero-fee trading on this new pair, alongside potential discounts on related spot and margin pairs.
This listing forms part of Binance’s wider push to introduce innovative assets that align with evolving investor demand and strengthen market activity.
Delisting of Three Pairs
On the flip side, Binance confirmed it will delist three spot trading pairs due to low liquidity and reduced trading volume:
- ANIME/FDUSD
- HYPER/FDUSD
- STO/BNB
The delisting will take effect on August 15, 2025, at 03:00 UTC. Binance urged users to update or cancel their Spot Trading Bots linked to these pairs before the suspension deadline to avoid unnecessary losses.
Importantly, the delisting does not affect the availability of the tokens themselves. Traders can still buy or sell these assets through other supported pairs on Binance Spot.
Market Reaction
Interestingly, instead of declining, the affected tokens witnessed an upward price trend. ANIME surged by 16% in a single day, while HYPER and STO posted moderate gains. The rally coincided with a broader altcoin rebound, where Ethereum (ETH) rose by 8% to cross $4,700, and Solana (SOL) jumped 15% to surpass $200.
Additional Binance Updates
Alongside the listing and delisting changes, Binance recently:
- Launched a zero-fee trading campaign for VIP 2–9 users and liquidity providers, covering pairs like BNB/USDC, ADA/USDC, TRX/USDC, and XRP/USDC. The offer runs from August 12 to October 11, 2025.
- Introduced AIO/USDT and XNY/USDT perpetual contracts with leverage up to 50x, enabling users to speculate on crypto prices without directly holding the assets. Shortly after the launch, OlaXBT (AIO) saw a nearly 50% price surge, highlighting the strong impact of Binance’s listings on asset visibility and liquidity.
Conclusion
Binance’s August 2025 updates showcase its dual approach: expanding trading opportunities with new listings and promotions, while simultaneously removing inactive pairs to optimize liquidity and safeguard users. The exchange remains focused on striking a balance between innovation and risk management, ensuring it maintains its position as a global crypto leader.
