Frequently Asked Questions
What does it mean when a trading pair is delisted?
Delisting means the specific trading pair (e.g., FITFI/USDT) is permanently removed from the exchange. You can no longer buy or sell that token against USDT on OKX after the specified time. However, you can still withdraw the token itself if you hold it.
How long do I have to withdraw my delisted tokens?
OKX provides a withdrawal grace period. For these tokens, you have until November 30, 2024, at 08:00 (UTC), to withdraw them to an external wallet. It is important to complete this action before the deadline.
Where can I find my delisted tokens in my OKX account after August 30?
After the trading pairs are removed, any remaining balances of FITFI, GARI, XPR, AKITA, TAMA, or WNCG will be moved to your Non-tradable Assets section. You can access this under Assets > Funding.
Why does OKX delist trading pairs?
Exchanges delist trading pairs based on a regular review process. Common reasons include poor liquidity, low trading volume, project development issues, or a failure to meet the exchange's evolving listing standards, all aimed at protecting users.
Will OKX support these tokens again in the future?
There is no official information regarding the relisting of these specific tokens. The delisting appears to be a final decision based on the latest review. Always rely on official announcements from OKX for the most accurate information.
What should I do if I have open orders for these pairs?
Cancel all open orders for the affected pairs immediately. If you do not cancel them yourself, the system will automatically cancel them during the delisting process, which could take a few days.
