Binance Futures to Delist B3, DEGEN, BOBUSDTIR and DAM Pairs

Binance Futures is set to delist four perpetual contract pairs, B3/USDT, DEGEN/USDT, BOBUSDTIR/USDT and DAM/USDT, in a move that will force traders holding open positions in these markets to act before the removal takes effect.

Which Contracts Are Being Removed

The delisting covers four USDT-margined futures pairs on Binance Futures: B3/USDT, DEGEN/USDT, BOBUSDTIR/USDT and DAM/USDT. The announcement was published through Binance's official support channel.

All four pairs are perpetual contracts denominated in USDT (Tether). The delisting does not affect spot trading for the underlying tokens on Binance's spot exchange, though traders should verify each token's spot availability separately.

What This Means for Open Positions

Traders holding open long or short positions in any of the four contracts need to close them before the delisting deadline. Once a futures pair is removed, Binance typically settles remaining positions automatically at a calculated settlement price, which may not reflect the trader's intended exit.

Liquidity in delisted pairs tends to thin rapidly after an announcement. Wider spreads and increased slippage are common as market makers withdraw from contracts approaching removal. Traders should factor this into their exit timing.

The situation is similar to recent derivatives market changes on other platforms. Bybit recently listed OPG futures, showing that exchanges continuously adjust their derivatives offerings based on market demand and risk assessments.

Binance has not publicly stated the specific reasons for removing these four pairs. Traders should check the Binance announcements feed for exact delisting dates, auto-settlement terms and any grace periods.

Why Exchanges Remove Futures Pairs

Binance and other major exchanges periodically review their futures listings. Common factors that lead to delistings include persistently low trading volume, insufficient liquidity depth, elevated risk profiles and changes in the underlying token's fundamentals.

For USDT-paired contracts specifically, the health of the stablecoin side also matters. Recent developments around Tether, including reports that Tether froze $344 million in USDT after U.S. requests, highlight the broader regulatory scrutiny facing stablecoin-denominated markets.

Futures delistings do not necessarily signal that the underlying tokens are failing. In some cases, exchanges consolidate pairs to redirect liquidity toward higher-volume contracts or adjust risk exposure across their derivatives books.

Traders affected by this delisting should monitor Binance's official announcements for the precise implementation timeline, including the final trading time and settlement calculation methodology. Acting before the deadline avoids the uncertainty of automatic settlement at a price the trader did not choose.
