Short answer: your coins are still there. Going by the October 14, 2026 notice announcing that EPIC and QUICK will be delisted, a delisting first shuts down trading. Open orders are removed, the tokens stay in your account, deposits stop being credited a day later, and withdrawals carry on for a while — in that notice, two full months, until December 28. Only after that cut-off may the platform convert what's left into stablecoins, and the same notice says plainly that the conversion is not guaranteed. What you actually have to decide is whether you still want to hold them once this exchange is no longer an option.

Every delisting notice sets its own dates. Everything below comes from that single notice, checked in October 2026, and is there to show you what to look for. When it's your coin, the notice you're reading is the one that counts.

One real notice, date by date

The English notice was "Published on 2026-10-14 06:00". Trading is set to stop two weeks after that. Here is the order things shut down, in UTC:

When (UTC)What the notice saysWhat it means for you
Oct 20, 08:30Perpetual futures on these tokens stop accepting new positionsIf you hold a position, decide by now
Oct 20, 09:00Perpetual futures positions are closed and settled automatically, then the contracts are delistedAnything left open is closed by the system
Oct 21, 03:00Spot Copy Trading delists the affected pairsCheck what your copy portfolio holds
Oct 21, 07:00Simple Earn delists the tokensEarn balances need moving back first
Oct 28, 02:00Convert delists the tokens and all associated pairsOne hour before spot
Oct 28, 03:00Trading ceases; all trade orders are automatically removed; trading bots on these pairs end where applicableLast moment to sell on this exchange
Oct 29, 03:00Deposits are no longer creditedDon't send more of the coin in
Dec 28, 03:00Withdrawals no longer supportedLast moment to move it out
After Dec 29, 03:00Tokens may be converted into stablecoins; not guaranteed. If conversion isn't feasible, withdrawals stay open subject to network availabilityNot a plan, just a fallback

Quoted lines are from the English delisting notice, checked October 2026. It also describes itself as "a general Binance Exchange Notice" and adds that the products mentioned "may not be available in your region."

Read down the table and a pattern shows: the side products close first, then spot trading, then deposits, and withdrawals last. Two weeks from notice to trading halt, two months from trading halt to withdrawal halt — for this notice.

The products that close before spot

People who only circle October 28 tend to get caught here. Each product follows its own date, so where the coin sits decides how much time you really have.

  • Simple Earn closes a week early. Coins locked in a product aren't sellable or withdrawable until they're back in your spot wallet.
  • Spot Copy Trading also closes a week early. If you copy someone else, you might not even know the coin is in your portfolio.
  • Convert closes only an hour early. If one-tap selling is your habit, leaving it to the last hour means finding that button gone.
  • Futures and trading bots each have their own section in the notice. The futures cut-off, October 20, comes more than a week before the spot one, so if you hold a position, read that part first. Grid bots leave a row of orders behind; deal with them yourself rather than letting the shutdown do it.

Margin, loans and similar products get separate notices of their own under the same Delisting category, so one coin can show up in several announcements. When a coin you hold appears in a delisting notice, start by opening each wallet on the assets page to see where it actually sits. Dates come second.

Is it the coin, or just one trading pair?

Not everything filed under Delisting means a coin is leaving. On September 29, 2026 the exchange announced it would remove two spot pairs, AUCTION/USDC and VANA/USDC. Among the factors it lists for removing pairs are "poor liquidity and trading volume", and that notice says it outright: "The delisting of a spot trading pair does not affect the availability of the tokens on Binance Spot."

The headline usually tells you. Token names alone (EPIC, QUICK) mean the coin is leaving spot. A pair with a slash (AUCTION/USDC) means one route to buy and sell is closing; you can still trade the coin against something else, and there's no reason to rush a withdrawal.

Do you still want this coin once you leave?

Ask yourself that first. The answer picks one of three routes, and none of them is the right one for everybody.

You don't: sell before trading stops

Sell while spot is still open. One line deserves attention: "All trade orders will be automatically removed after trading ceases." Put up a limit order far from the market price and go to sleep, and you may wake up to a cancelled order and the same coins. If you mean to leave, make sure the order actually fills before the halt.

You do: move it somewhere that still supports it

Withdrawals keep working after trading stops. In this notice that's October 28 to December 28, a two-month window to move it out. The destination can be your own wallet or another exchange that still lists the coin. The steps are the same as any withdrawal — see how to withdraw to your own wallet and which network to pick.

You do nothing: wait for whatever happens after the cut-off

The notice's wording is "may": "Delisted tokens may be converted into stablecoins on behalf of users after 2026-12-29 03:00 (UTC)." Then: "Please note that the conversion of delisted tokens into stablecoins is not guaranteed." And: "In situations where token conversion is not feasible, Binance will keep withdrawals open, subject to network availability." Leave it that long and every outcome is somebody else's decision. I wouldn't park money I care about on this route.

One step that works whatever you decideIf the coin sits in Earn, copy trading or a bot, move it back to spot now. Those products close earlier, and once it's back, all three routes are still open to you.

Four things to line up before you withdraw

  • Will the other side accept it? The wallet or exchange you're sending to must support this coin and the network you choose. A coin one exchange drops isn't necessarily listed anywhere else; check their deposit page first.
  • Minimum amount and network fee. The withdrawal page shows both for each coin and network. They vary too much to quote here, so go by what the page shows when you withdraw.
  • Dust balances. A small leftover may fall below the minimum or fail to cover the fee. Ask official support in that case — see how to reach official support. We can't promise there's a fix.
  • Don't top up. From a day after the trading halt, new deposits of the coin aren't credited. If you were planning to send a bit more in to reach the minimum, check the date first.
"We can recover your delisted coins" is a scamAfter a delisting, people show up in your messages offering to unfreeze, recover or buy back delisted tokens, as long as you pay a fee, share your seed phrase or install an app. The notice gives you three routes: sell, withdraw, or the possible conversion after the cut-off. None of them involves contacting a third party. More of these tricks in spotting fake apps and fake support.

Holding coins across several platforms multiplies the notices you have to catch — covered in should you spread crypto across several exchanges. If you've only just opened an account, the beginner guide shows where announcements live.

FAQ

Does a delisted coin go to zero in my account?

Nothing in the notice says your balance is wiped. After trading stops the tokens stay in your account and you can withdraw them until the cut-off. What the coin is worth elsewhere afterwards is a separate question the notice doesn't answer, and neither will we.

Can I still withdraw after the withdrawal deadline?

Maybe, but don't plan on it. The notice says the tokens may be converted into stablecoins, that the conversion is not guaranteed, and that where conversion isn't feasible withdrawals stay open subject to network availability. Treat the deadline as the real last day.

My balance is below the minimum withdrawal. What now?

Check the withdrawal page for that coin and network first; the minimum and the network fee shown there are what count. If you really can't meet it, ask official support whether anything else is possible. The notices we checked don't describe a standard fix, so we can't promise one.

The Monitoring Tag: the warning that came months earlier

EPIC didn't get into trouble on October 14. On May 22, 2026, an announcement added the Monitoring Tag to EPIC and eight other tokens. Almost five months passed between the tag and the delisting.

According to the Monitoring Tag announcement, "Tokens with the Monitoring Tag exhibit notably higher volatility and risks compared to other listed tokens", and they "are at risk of no longer meeting our listing criteria and being delisted from the platform." It also says reviews are ongoing: "Binance will conduct periodic project reviews and decide if the Monitoring Tag should be added to or removed from tokens". A warning, then, not a verdict — of the nine tokens tagged that day, only EPIC appeared in the October notice. QUICK, the other coin delisted, wasn't on the May list, so a tag won't always show up first.

There's a practical tell on the trading screen. To trade tagged tokens you have to "pass the quiz every 90 days on the Binance Spot and/or Binance Margin platforms, and accept the Terms of Use". If buying a coin suddenly asks you to take a quiz, it carries a risk tag — the Monitoring Tag, or another one such as the Seed Tag. The label next to the pair tells you which.

Where I land: don't add to a tagged coin. If you already hold one, glance at the Delisting section of the announcements every so often. If a notice does come, that still leaves the two weeks and the two months to work through everything above without rushing.
