Cryptocurrency Trading Platform Renders 48 Futures Contracts Ineligible for Listing
In a recent announcement, cryptocurrency exchange BitMEX has revealed plans to delist 48 perpetual contracts and list new quarterly futures for Cardano (ADA), Ethereum (ETH), Bitcoin (BTC), and XRP. The decision to delist the perpetual contracts was made due to insufficient trading interest, while the new listings are aimed at enhancing trading opportunities and market offerings.
The affected trading pairs include Arbitrum (ARB), Shiba Inu (SHIB), Stellar (XLM), Ondo (ONDO), Pi (PI), Cats in a dogs world (MEW), and several others. Additionally, contracts such as DOGSUSDT, 100SATSUSD, ACTUSDT, AEVOUSDT, APUUSDT, ARBUSD, AUSD, AUSDT, BANANAUSDT, BIGTIMEUSDT, BLURUSDT, CATUSDT, CHILLGUYUSDT, CYBERUSDT, DOODUSDT, GMEUSDT, GMTUSD, HAEDALUSDT, HYPERUSDT, INITUSDT, IPUSDT, LAUNCHCOINUSDT, LAUSDT, LUNAUSDT, MELANIAUSDT, MERLUSD, MEWUSDT, MGOUSDT, MOONPIGUSDT, MOVEUSDT, NOTUSDT, ONDOUSDT, ORDIUSD, PIUSDT, POKTUSDT, SAGAUSDT, SAHARAUSDT, SHIBUSD, SIGNUSDT, SOPHUSDT, SUSDT, SXTUSDT, USDTUSDC, WCTUSDT, WOOUSDT, XAUTUSD, XLMUSDT, and ZROUSDT will be delisted on Sept. 11, 2025, at 12:00 p.m. UTC. All trading will cease, and all open orders will be cancelled at this time.
On the other hand, BitMEX will list new quarterly futures for the aforementioned cryptocurrencies starting September 9, 2025, at 4:00 a.m. UTC. The perpetual contracts for the Cardano/Bitcoin, Ethereum/Bitcoin, Ethereum/USD, and XRP/Bitcoin trading pairs will also be listed on this date. The settlement dates of the current and upcoming futures contracts for Q4, 2025, have been announced in a blog post.
It's important to note that all open positions in the relevant contracts will be closed out using the relevant settlement prices. The contracts will trade normally until 4:00 a.m. UTC on Sept. 11, 2025. After this time, trading will cease, and all open orders will be cancelled.
This strategic shift towards new quarterly futures is part of BitMEX's efforts to provide a more robust and varied trading environment for its users. By delisting underperforming perpetual contracts and introducing new quarterly futures, BitMEX aims to create a more dynamic and engaging platform for traders.
