Major Exchange to Delist 16 Cryptocurrencies: Details
The main causes of OKX‘s announcement of the extensive delisting of 16 trading pairs are low trading volume and liquidity shortages. The action is a reflection of the platform’s endeavor to maintain a trading environment that is both efficient and liquid. Because these pairs did not meet the minimal requirements for sustained listing, the exchange flagged them as part of its routine listing qualification review.
The affected pairs include: ALCX/USDT, ALCX/USD, NULS/USDT, NULS/USD, MDT/USDT, MDT/USD, BORA/USDT, BORA/USD, CTXC/USDT, CTXC/USD, XNO/USDT, XNO/USD, VENOM/USDT, VENOM/USD, RADAR/USDT, RADAR/USD.

The delisting will take place on June 20,2025, between 8:00 and 10:00 a.m. UTC. As of June 16, deposits for the delisted assets have already been suspended, and users are encouraged to manage or remove their holdings as soon as possible. Sept. 20, 2025, will mark the end of withdrawals, providing time for asset recovery. In terms of market reaction as exit liquidity thins out, tokens such as RADAR and ALCX are likely to see sudden declines.

Delisting increases investor uncertainty as these assets were already exhibiting structural weakness. One warning for RADAR is that although there are still significant technical obstacles, its vibrant Web3 community may mobilize on social media and try to support the price through grassroots involvement. The list may not recover at all for other tokens, especially those with little practical application or little trading support.
Sentiment could continue to deteriorate as access becomes more limited and liquidity disappears on several exchanges, which could result in delisting on other platforms or permanent price suppression. This is a clear reminder to traders that exchanges are narrowing their rosters and that tokens that do not contribute to volume or activity run the risk of being dropped. Be on the lookout for slippage risk illiquidity traps and volatile swings, which are likely to increase during the delisting window. Now is the time to take decisive action if you own any of the impacted assets.
