OKX Shakes Up Crypto Market: Delists Major Privacy Tokens Amid Regulatory Review
Cryptocurrency exchange OKX, one of the major offshore trading platforms, has made a significant decision to delist and suspend various privacy tokens. The move, effective as of December 27, will see the removal of several tokens from its platform, including FSN, ZKS, CAPO, CVP, XMR, DASH, ZEC, and ZEN, along with their respective trading pairs.
Delisting Measures and Asset Management for Users
As part of this decision, OKX has already suspended deposits of these tokens since December 27, 2023, urging users to promptly manage their assets. Once the delisting process concludes, users can locate their assets under the section ‘Assets > Funding > Untradable assets.’ Additionally, the exchange plans to suspend withdrawals of these tokens starting from March 5, 2024. OKX has advised users to take timely action to manage their assets in light of these changes.
Commitment to High Standards and Trading Experience
