Binance will suspend ETH deposits/withdrawals on August 27 for maintenance and delist ICX, SCRT, and STORJ on September 3.
Macro & Markets ·
Binance announced two separate operational changes affecting traders. On August 27, the exchange will pause deposits and withdrawals specifically on the Ethereum network for approximately one hour during wallet maintenance; trading activity will continue normally. Following this, the platform will remove three tokens from its listing on September 3: ICON (ICX), Secret (SCRT), and Storj (STORJ), citing their failure to satisfy required standards.
Delistings from major exchanges typically trigger significant sell-off pressure on the affected assets. The removal of ICX, SCRT, and STORJ reflects Binance's periodic review process and can substantially reduce trading volume and price stability for these tokens due to their loss of access to one of the largest centralized trading venues.
Market participants holding these tokens face execution challenges during the September 3 delisting window, and the scale of any price impact remains dependent on existing holder concentration and order flow dynamics at that time.
