OKX will remove six spot trading pairs for three tokens in two stages, with deposits already suspended and withdrawals available until November. The exchange did not disclose the reason for the delisting.
The first batch, three margin-settled pairs against the dollar, will be taken down between 16:00 and 18:00 UTC on Aug. 14. Those are GODS/USD, PRCL/USD, and DUCK/USD. The second batch follows on Aug. 17 during the same two-hour window, covering GODS/USDT, PRCL/USDT, PRCL/EUR, and DUCK/USDT.
The exchange suspended deposits for the three tokens at 16:00 UTC on Aug. 7. Withdrawals remain open until 16:00 UTC on Nov. 7, giving holders roughly three months to move their assets. The timeline separates trading cessation from the final withdrawal deadline, a common practice among exchanges.
For holders of the affected tokens on OKX, the delisting means they cannot trade these pairs after the scheduled dates. Anyone holding the tokens on the platform must withdraw by Nov. 7 to avoid losing access. The absence of an explanation for the removal leaves open questions about whether the tokens might be relisted or if the exchange has compliance concerns.
The delisting coincides with a series of operational changes at OKX across multiple regions. In July, the OKX Android app returned to South Korea's Google Play Store after a four-day suspension. Google had restricted access to dozens of overseas exchange applications. South Korea had tightened oversight of unregistered virtual asset service providers, and the restrictions affected platforms beyond those on the Financial Intelligence Unit's enforcement list, Digital Asset reported. The restoration made OKX the first of the recently restricted platforms to regain access.
Also in July, OKX launched a one-way USDT-to-USDC conversion service for eligible customers in 30 European Union and European Economic Area countries. The service operates under the exchange's Markets in Crypto-Assets license and allows users to voluntarily convert USDT holdings into MiCA-compliant USDC. European exchanges have been reducing support for Tether's stablecoin after the regulation's implementation.
Last month, OKX appointed former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo to its board of directors. Cuomo had been advising the company on U.S. regulatory and institutional strategy since 2023, and the appointment formalized that role. The exchange is also working with Intercontinental Exchange on a planned joint venture focused on blockchain-based financial products. Cuomo will serve as co-chair of the initiative, which aims to combine ICE's market infrastructure with OKX's blockchain technology, subject to regulatory approvals. Intercontinental Exchange carries an AlphaScala score of 54, with a Mixed label in the Financials sector. ICE shares trade on the New York Stock Exchange.
The withdrawal deadline for the three tokens is Nov. 7 at 16:00 UTC.
