Binance will remove trading for four spot-market pairs—BREV/USDC, COOKIE/USDC, LA/USDC and QNT/USDC—on September 18, 2026, at 06:00 AM. The exchange said the decision follows its regular review of spot trading pairs, with market quality, liquidity and trading volume among the factors considered.
According to Binance, the four trading pairs will be removed from the platform at the specified time, after which users will no longer be able to place new buy or sell orders through those pairs. The exchange said its reviews are intended to maintain a high-quality trading environment and assess changing market conditions.
The removal concerns the specified trading pairs and does not, based on the announcement provided, confirm that BREV, COOKIE, LA or QNT themselves will be completely delisted from Binance. The announcement therefore distinguishes between removing a trading pair and removing an asset from the exchange altogether.
For traders holding open orders in the affected pairs, the scheduled removal creates a specific operational deadline to review those orders before trading is halted. Removing a pair can also reduce the available trading routes for an asset on the platform, even if the underlying token remains listed elsewhere on Binance.
The next focus will be Binance's handling of these four pairs on September 18 and whether further trading-pair reviews result in additional removals as market conditions change. Users of the affected pairs will need to monitor their orders ahead of the scheduled suspension.
