Binance Converts Ten Tokens to USDC: Full Breakdown and Market Impact
Binance, one of the leading cryptocurrency exchanges, has announced a significant move to convert ten tokens into USDC. This decision affects a variety of tokens, ranging from Tornado Cash (TORN) to smaller tokens like Dock (DOCK) and Mdex (MDX), leading to notable price fluctuations across the market.
What Tokens Are Being Converted?
Binance will convert the following tokens into USDC for users holding them in their wallets:
1. Tornado Cash (TORN)
2. Vai (VAI)
3. OMG Network (OMG)
4. Waves (WAVES)
5. NEM (XEM)
6. BarnBridge (BOND)
7. Dock (DOCK)
8. Mdex (MDX)
9. Polkastarter (POLS)
10. Pundi X PURSE (PURSE)
Once the conversion process is complete, users’ wallets will be credited with USDC based on the value of their holdings at the time of the conversion.
How Will This Impact Token Prices?
The announcement caused a significant downturn in several of these tokens’ market values:
Tornado Cash (TORN) dropped by 6%, falling to $2.16.
Waves (WAVES) and NEM (XEM) experienced smaller, yet noticeable declines.
Mdex (MDX) faced the sharpest drop, losing 51% of its value in the market.
These changes reflect the market’s reaction to Binance’s delisting and conversion decision, signaling a loss of confidence in the future support of these tokens.
Important Dates and Details
Conversion Deadline: Users must withdraw the delisted tokens before October 28, 23:59 UTC.
Binance will calculate the conversion rates using an average price of the token against USDC over a specified period before the conversion.
Tokens that remain unclaimed by the deadline will automatically be converted into USDC.
What Does This Mean for Investors?
The delisting of these tokens underscores the importance of regularly managing your cryptocurrency portfolio. Historically, tokens that lose support from major exchanges often struggle to maintain their market value, and in some cases, they may become illiquid. As seen with Mdex's 51% plunge, holding delisted tokens could result in significant losses.
