Binance Ends Margin Trading for XRP/BNB and 14 Other Altcoin Pairs This Week
Binance Margin has officially stopped margin trading on 14 major pairs as of March 24, citing a platform adjustment. Affected tokens include XRP, AVAX, Bitcoin Cash and ATOM alongside several other altcoin pairs, with XRP/BNB specifically flagged in exchange notices. The delisting is effective immediately for new margin positions.
The decision trims available leverage for traders and may compress liquidity and widen spreads for those pairs in spot markets. Traders with open margin exposure should review their positions and risk settings; exchanges often pause or remove pairs as part of risk management, product rationalization or liquidity concerns. This move underscores that even large tokens can lose leveraged access quickly, adding another operational variable for altcoin traders to monitor.
