Across Protocol, Hashflow, PIVX, Vulcan Forged PYR, Vanar and Viction all lose spot pairs, futures, margin and Earn products in a phased shutdown that starts on 7 August and ends with an October withdrawal deadline.
Binance will pull spot trading for Across Protocol, Hashflow, PIVX, Vulcan Forged PYR, Vanar and Viction at 03:00 UTC on 17 August, ending a delisting that walks users through more than two months of overlapping cutoffs before the exchange finally stops crediting deposits. Four of the six tokens carried Binance's Monitoring Tag before the announcement, meaning holders had already been forced through 90-day risk quizzes to keep trading them. The notice, published on 3 August, did not break down the exchange's reasoning token by token.
Across Protocol is the clearest case. Binance flagged ACX with a Monitoring Tag on 24 July; four days later Coinbase suspended trading. The bridge, which logged its first Solana exploit last month, has since said it is winding down the token in favour of a proposed conversion to a US C-corporation. The Across DAO's draft plan offered holders either an equity swap or a USDC buyout at $0.04375 per token, though the paperwork warned that the equity route ran into legal restrictions and the timetable could still slip.
The rest of the list is smaller. Market caps circulated by BWEnews after the notice put PYR at roughly $3.5 million, PIVX at $3.4 million, HFT at $7.7 million, VANRY at $8.8 million and VIC at $5 million. ACX was the largest at $38.4 million. The reaction was immediate: ACX fell 19.44 per cent, HFT 17.29 per cent and VIC 20.35 per cent in the session that followed the announcement. There is no serious market case for these listings surviving another quarterly review.
Anyone still holding one of the six tokens on Binance needs the timetable. Binance Futures will block new positions at 08:30 UTC on 7 August and settle any remaining contracts thirty minutes later. Margin borrowing closes down from 06:00 UTC on 4 August, with cross and isolated positions settled at 10:00 UTC on 7 August. Binance Pay and Binance Pool cut support the same morning; VIP Loan and Flexible Loan positions close at 07:00 UTC. Simple Earn redemptions land back in spot accounts after 07:00 UTC on 10 August, alongside Copy Trading removals of the affected pairs. Convert stops offering the six tokens at 02:00 UTC on 17 August, one hour before the spot pairs close.
Withdrawals stay open until 03:00 UTC on 17 October. After that the exchange says it may convert leftover balances into stablecoins, but the notice explicitly refuses to guarantee it. Where a swap is possible, users will get another announcement. Where it is not, Binance says only that withdrawals "may remain open, subject to network availability" — a formulation that puts the burden squarely on the holder to move funds well before the deadline.
The Vanar migration is a separate problem. Vanar is moving to Base with a 1:1 swap and a new supply of 10 billion tokens, and it previously told users that participating centralised exchanges would handle the conversion automatically. Binance's notice confirms it is not one of those venues. VANRY holders on Binance must withdraw over Ethereum or Polygon PoS and complete the swap themselves through Vanar's portal, ignoring the phishing traffic that always accompanies migrations of this kind. The project has told users to rely only on links from its verified channels and to never share seed phrases in the process.
Monitoring Tags did most of the diplomatic work before the announcement. PIVX picked up the label on 18 June, PYR and VANRY followed on 3 July, and ACX joined on 24 July. Hashflow and Viction did not — the notice included them anyway, which is a reminder that a clean risk profile at Binance is no protection from delisting. The exchange's review framework, cited in every removal notice, covers liquidity, development activity, network safety, team conduct, transparency, tokenomics and regulatory changes. None of those factors have to fail simultaneously to end up on the list.
This is Binance's fourth spot delisting round of 2026, following the April removals of BIFI, FIO, FUN, MDT, OXT and WAN. The exchange has now selected 21 tokens for spot removal this year. The pattern is consistent: mid- and small-cap altcoins with declining liquidity get walked out through a tagged warning phase, then formally removed with a two-month withdrawal window. The published rules and the timetable do the enforcement work.
