The digital asset landscape is constantly evolving, and exchanges must adapt to ensure optimal performance, security, and user experience. In line with this commitment, OKX has announced the full delisting of WEMIX trading pairs across multiple product lines — including spot trading, margin trading, perpetual contracts, and WEMIX Savings. This strategic decision follows the OKX Token Delisting / Hiding Guideline and incorporates feedback from the user community to enhance overall liquidity management and platform efficiency.
Users are strongly encouraged to review the timeline and take necessary actions before the specified deadlines to avoid potential losses due to forced liquidations or automatic order cancellations.
Spot Trading: Cessation of WEMIX Pairs
OKX will officially remove all WEMIX spot trading pairs at 13:00 UTC on December 8, 2022. At this time:
- All active WEMIX orders will be automatically canceled.
- Trading functionality for WEMIX/USDT and other related pairs will cease entirely.
👉 Stay ahead of market changes with real-time updates and advanced trading tools.
Traders should close any open positions prior to the cutoff time. Given that price volatility may increase as the delisting approaches, early action is essential for risk mitigation. Once delisted, these pairs will no longer be available for trading on the OKX spot market.
Margin Trading & Flexible Loan: Key Deadlines
To ensure a smooth transition, OKX has set a phased suspension schedule for margin services involving WEMIX:
| Margin Trading Pair | Borrowing Feature Ceased | Full Delisting Time |
|---|---|---|
| WEMIX/USDT | December 8, 2022, 09:00 UTC | December 8, 2022, 10:00 UTC |
Key points for margin users:
- Margin adjustments have already been disabled for WEMIX/USDT isolated positions.
- Users must repay all outstanding borrowings before the delisting time.
- Any remaining debt will trigger forced repayment.
- Open margin positions will be canceled automatically after delisting.
Given the one-hour window between borrowing suspension and full delisting, users are urged to act promptly. Failure to repay or close positions may result in financial loss due to forced liquidation.
Perpetual Contracts: Delivery and Risk Controls
To prevent market instability during the delisting process, OKX will delist the WEMIXUSDT perpetual swap at 09:00 UTC on December 8, 2022. The following procedures will apply:
- Trading will halt immediately at the delisting time.
- All pending orders on the order book will be canceled.
- Open positions will be delivered based on the arithmetic average price of the OKX index over the one hour preceding delisting.
In cases where index price anomalies occur during this final hour, OKX reserves the right to adjust the delivery price to a fair and reasonable level to protect user interests.
Temporary Withdrawal Restrictions
To maintain platform stability:
- Users holding WEMIXUSDT perpetual contract positions valued above $10,000 at delivery time will face a 30-minute restriction on asset transfers from their Trading Account.
- These restrictions will be lifted automatically after 30 minutes.
This measure helps prevent sudden capital movements that could impact market integrity during a sensitive transition phase.
Enhanced Risk Control Parameters
Ahead of delisting, OKX has implemented temporary adjustments to price limit rules to manage volatility:
| Time (UTC) | X | Y | Z |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dec 8, 04:00 (5h before delivery) | 2% | 2% | 5% |
| Dec 8, 08:30 (30m before delivery) | 1% | 1% | 2% |
These settings govern how far prices can deviate from the index value during critical periods. Adjustments are designed to reduce slippage and prevent manipulative price spikes near termination.
Users are advised to reduce leverage or close positions early to avoid risks associated with heightened market swings.
Discount Rate Adjustment for Cross-Margin Accounts
In multi-currency cross-margin mode, certain assets are assigned discount rates based on their liquidity and volatility profile. With the upcoming delisting:
| Asset | Time | Tier (USD) | Discount Rate (Before → After) |
|---|---|---|---|
| WEMIX | Dec 8, 10:00 UTC | 0–50,000 | 0.5 → 0 |
| >50,000 | — → 0 |
After the change:
- WEMIX will no longer contribute to margin value in cross-margin accounts.
- This adjustment aligns with reduced liquidity expectations post-delisting.
Ensure your margin calculations reflect this update if you hold diversified collateral.
WEMIX Savings: Automatic Redemption
Following the closure of borrowing features:
- Subscription to WEMIX Savings will be suspended.
- All existing savings holdings will be automatically redeemed by the system.
- Funds will be transferred to your funding account once margin trading is fully offline.
There is no need for manual redemption. However, users who wish to track transaction history should download relevant records via the Report Center on the OKX web platform before or shortly after delisting.
