Maintaining a secure, efficient, and high-performing trading environment is a top priority for any leading digital asset platform. At OKX, continuous evaluation of listed spot trading pairs ensures that only assets meeting strict quality, liquidity, and user demand standards remain available to traders. As part of this ongoing commitment, OKX has announced the upcoming delisting of several spot trading pairs that no longer meet the platform’s listing criteria.
This decision follows comprehensive performance reviews and user feedback, reinforcing OKX’s proactive approach to maintaining market integrity and user trust.
Affected Trading Pairs
The following spot trading pairs will be removed from OKX:
- TUP/USDT
- THG/USDT
- CONV/USDT
- BLOK/USDT
- BRWL/USDT
- NYM/USDT
These pairs have been identified for delisting due to factors such as low trading volume, limited market liquidity, and insufficient community engagement—key metrics that impact overall trading experience and platform efficiency.

Delisting Timeline and Key Dates
Understanding the timeline is crucial for users holding or trading these assets. Below are the critical dates every user should be aware of:
Deposit Suspension
Deposits for the affected cryptocurrencies—TUP, THG, CONV, BLOK, BRWL, and NYM—were suspended starting 8:00 AM UTC on August 15, 2024. After this time, no new deposits of these tokens will be accepted on OKX.
Spot Trading Delisting
The official delisting of the trading pairs will occur between 8:00 AM and 8:30 AM UTC on August 23, 2024. Users are strongly advised to cancel any open orders related to these pairs before this window. If not canceled manually, the system will automatically cancel all pending orders during the delisting process. This cancellation may take 1–3 business days to reflect in your account.
Withdrawal Suspension
Users will retain the ability to withdraw these assets until 8:00 AM UTC on November 23, 2024. After this date, withdrawal functionality for TUP, THG, CONV, BLOK, BRWL, and NYM will be permanently disabled. It is essential to manage your holdings before this deadline to avoid loss of access.
Once delisted, affected assets will be moved to the Untradable Assets section under Assets > Funding, where users can still view and withdraw them until the withdrawal suspension date.
Why Does Delisting Happen?
Delisting is a standard practice across regulated financial platforms—not just in crypto. It ensures that only viable, transparent, and actively traded assets remain accessible to users. Common reasons for delisting include:
- Low trading volume: Assets with minimal market activity can lead to poor price discovery and slippage.
- Lack of liquidity: Thin order books increase volatility and reduce trade execution efficiency.
- Project inactivity or abandonment: If a project team becomes inactive or fails to deliver updates, it raises red flags about long-term viability.
- Failure to meet compliance standards: Projects must adhere to evolving regulatory and technical requirements.
By removing underperforming assets, OKX enhances platform stability and protects users from potential risks associated with illiquid or stagnant tokens.
What Should You Do Now?
If you hold any of the affected tokens or have active positions, take action promptly:
- Cancel open orders before August 23, 2024.
- Withdraw your assets before November 23, 2024.
- Review alternative investment options on OKX’s wide selection of listed digital assets.
Ignoring these deadlines may result in limited access to your funds or forced conversions at unfavorable rates if third-party services no longer support these tokens.
