A cryptocurrency exchange has announced the delisting of its USDT perpetual contract trading pair, effective February 6, 2026. **Key Timeline:** - February 6, 08:30 UTC: USDT pair enters Reduce-Only mode - February 6, 09:00 UTC: Complete delisting occurs **What This Means:** Traders with open USDT perpetual positions must close them before the deadline. After 08:30 UTC, no new positions can be opened—only reductions or closures are permitted. **After Delisting:** - Remaining open positions may be closed by the system at market price - All pending orders will be automatically canceled - Other trading pairs remain unaffected This follows a pattern of delistings on the platform, with ZRCUSDT removed on January 21 and three other pairs (42USDT, COMMONUSDT, CUDISUSDT) delisted on January 30. Traders should review their positions and take action before the February 6 deadline to avoid forced liquidation at potentially unfavorable market prices.
