2024-02-06 02:00

This is a general announcement. Products and services referred to here may not be available in your region.

Fellow Binancians,

At Binance, we periodically review each digital asset we list to ensure that it continues to meet the high level of standard we expect. When a coin or token no longer meets this standard, or the industry changes, we conduct a more in-depth review and potentially delist it. We believe this best protects all our users.

When we conduct these reviews, we consider a variety of factors. Here are some that drive whether we decide to delist a digital asset:

    Commitment of team to project

    Level and quality of development activity

    Trading volume and liquidity

    Stability and safety of network from attacks

    Network / smart contract stability

    Level of public communication

    Responsiveness to our periodic due diligence requests

    Evidence of unethical/fraudulent conduct or negligence

    Contribution to a healthy and sustainable crypto ecosystem

Based on our most recent reviews, we have decided to delist and cease trading on all trading pairs for the following token(s) at 2024-02-20 03:00 (UTC):

    Aragon (ANT)

    Multichain (MULTI)

    Vai (VAI)

    Monero (XMR)

Please note:

    The exact trading pairs being removed are: ANT/BTC, ANT/USDT, MULTI/USDT, USDT/VAI, XMR/BNB, XMR/BTC, XMR/ETH, XMR/USDT

    All trade orders will be automatically removed after trading ceases in each respective trading pair.

    To view your assets after trading ceases, please ensure you have not selected “Hide Small Balances” in all of your wallets.

    Deposits of these token(s) after 2024-02-21 03:00 (UTC) will not be credited to your account.

    Withdrawals of these token(s) from Binance will not be supported after 2024-05-20 03:00 (UTC).

    Delisted tokens may be converted into stablecoins on behalf of users after 2024-05-21 03:00 (UTC). Please note that the conversion of delisted tokens into stablecoins is not guaranteed. A separate notification will be made before the conversion where applicable, and the stablecoins will be credited to users’ Binance accounts after the conversion.

    Binance Simple Earn will delist the token(s) mentioned above after 2024-02-19 03:00 (UTC). Users may choose to redeem their Flexible Product positions beforehand. Otherwise, these Flexible Product positions will be automatically redeemed at the above-mentioned time, and subsequently transferred to users’ Spot Wallets.

    Binance Auto-Invest will delist the token(s) mentioned above after 2024-02-14 03:00 (UTC). Users may choose to remove the plan(s) beforehand. Otherwise, the next recurring cycle of the token(s) will fail.

    At 2024-02-18 03:00 (UTC), Binance Loans (Flexible and Stable Rates) and VIP Loan will close all outstanding loan positions for the aforementioned token(s) as loanable token(s) and collateral token(s). Users are strongly advised to repay their outstanding loans before 2024-02-18 03:00 (UTC) to avoid any potential losses, where applicable.

    Binance Margin will delist the ANT, MULTI and XMR cross margin and isolated margin pairs at 2024-02-16 06:00 (UTC). At 2024-02-08 10:00 (UTC), Binance Margin will suspend isolated margin borrowing on the aforementioned isolated margin pairs. At 2024-02-16 06:00 (UTC), Binance Margin will close users’ positions, conduct an automatic settlement and cancel all pending orders on the aforementioned cross and isolated margin pairs. These pairs will then be removed from Margin. Please note that users will not be able to update their positions during the delisting process, and they are strongly advised to close their positions and/or transfer their assets from Margin Wallets to Spot Wallets prior to the cessation of margin trading at 2024-02-16 06:00 (UTC). Binance will not be responsible for any potential losses.

    Portfolio Margin users are advised to transfer the tokens mentioned above out of their Margin Wallet to their Spot Wallet and to top up their margin balance before 2024-02-16 06:00 (UTC) where applicable. Users should monitor the Unified Maintenance Margin Ratio (Uni-MMR) closely to avoid any potential liquidation that may result from the removal of the tokens mentioned above from the Margin Wallet.

    All ANT, MULTI and XMR balances in Cross Margin Wallets under the Portfolio Margin account will be automatically converted to USDT from 2024-02-16 06:00 (UTC). The conversion may take approximately 24 hours or longer. Binance Margin will not be liable for any losses on new positions during this period that may incur due to the conversion of funds.

Here's what ChatGPT says to look at. Based on these 5 criteria what's your assessment, is Monero adoption growing or shrinking?

"There are several objective criteria that can be used to determine if adoption of the Monero project is growing or shrinking:

Market capitalization: Monero's market capitalization reflects the total value of all Monero in circulation, which can be an indicator of demand for the cryptocurrency. A growing market capitalization suggests that more people are buying and holding Monero, while a shrinking market capitalization suggests the opposite.

Trading volume: The trading volume of Monero on cryptocurrency exchanges reflects the level of interest in buying and selling Monero. Higher trading volume suggests that more people are actively trading Monero, which could be an indication of growing adoption.

Number of wallets: The number of Monero wallets in use can be an indicator of adoption, as it suggests how many people are actively using Monero. A growing number of wallets suggests that more people are using Monero for transactions, while a shrinking number of wallets suggests the opposite.

Number of merchants accepting Monero: The number of merchants that accept Monero as payment can be an indicator of adoption. A growing number of merchants suggests that more people are using Monero to make purchases, while a shrinking number of merchants suggests the opposite.

Developer activity: The level of activity of Monero's development team can be an indicator of the project's growth. More active development suggests that the project is evolving and improving, which could attract more users and investors.

Overall, monitoring these metrics can provide insights into the growth or decline of Monero's adoption over time."

Which objective criteria do you look at to determine if the Monero project is growing? In other words, how do you measure if Monero adoption is growing or shrinking?

Darknet Update: Hydra Reigns, Monero Acceptance Climbs, Russian State Collusion Questioned

Why some cyber criminals are ditching bitcoin for a cryptocurrency called monero

https://www.cnbc.com/2021/06/13/what-is-monero-new-cryptocurrency-of-choice-for-cyber-criminals.html

I exchanged bitcoins for shares of GBTC (Grayscale Bitcoin Trust). I have not sold the shares of GBTC yet. I'm trying to find an IRS publication, webpage or memorandum that says whether or not the exchange of BTC for shares of GBTC was a taxable event. I'm aware that when I sell the shares of GBTC, that will be a taxable event.

This price action is giving me a headache. I sure could use a little aminorex to ease the pain.

Is this the thread you are thinking about?
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=740112.0

Aminorex must be accumulating XMR. He hasn't posted here since November 2018. If he had bought all he wants he'd be giving us a few positive posts from time to time. But, if he wants to buy more XMR, it's better to not post and let the price of XMR drift lower and lower so that he can buy more Monero and/or buy at lower prices.

I don't know about you, but I sure would like to have a little aminorex right about now.

Are there any exchanges trading XMD yet?

Is this based on a subjective view, objective data, or both?

I've been trying to trade XMV/BTC at tradeogre.com and altex.exchange. Volumes on both those exchanges are very low, thin order books and the spreads are wide. Anybody trading XMV/BTC on a different exchange that's better?

Hi,

Unfortunately MoneroV does not meet our requirements for listing at this time. Please feel free to re-apply when this project has become more established.

Sincerely,
CoinMarketCap Support

I have only found 4 exchanges with any XMV/BTC trading volume: 1) tradeogre.com, tightest spreads, 24h volume of about $8,000 2) altex.exchange, 24h volume of about $8,000 3) BTC-alpha, 24h volume of about $2,000 4) coinex, 24h volume of about $300. I'd like to see higher trading volume. Right now tradeogre looks the best to me until if and when HitBTC starts to trade XMV. DYOR to determine the best place for you to trade XMV. Anybody hear any updates on HitBTC or other exchanges?

Another way to look at my post is "on those dates what will the price of XMR/USD be"? So for the Dec 31, 2017 price of $220, we could hit $220 or higher prior to that date but I think the price would come back down and the price on Dec 31, 2017 would be $220.

monthly predictions on XMR/USD through June 2018 based on returns to date and the road to $500 and $1,000

From April 2014 to now, XMR/USD has had a geometric return of approximately 0.3696% per day. Extrapolating that into the future gives us the following monthly prices:

$220 on Dec 31, 2017
$247 on Jan 31, 2018
$274 on Feb 28, 2018
$307 on Mar 31, 2018
$343 on Apr 30, 2018
$385 on May 31, 2018 and
$430 on Jun 30, 2018

If that pattern continues, $500 would be hit on Aug 10, 2018 and $1,000 would be reached on Feb 14, 2019! Talk about a sweet valentine!

Which exchange do you use to go short Monero?
