Binance, the cryptocurrency exchange, will delist QuickSwap (QUICK) from all spot trading pairs on October 28, 2026, the company announced on October 14. The decision follows the exchange’s periodic review of listed assets and triggered an immediate sell-off in the token. Epic Chain (EPIC) was named in the same notice and will be delisted on the same date.
According to Binance’s official announcement, spot trading for QUICK will stop at 03:00 Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) on October 28. All open orders will be cancelled at that time, and Spot Trading Bots services for the affected pairs will end. The notice did not say which review criteria the token failed to meet.
Key Delisting Dates for QUICK Holders
Binance will wind down support for QUICK in stages across its products. According to the delisting notice:
- October 15: Margin borrowing for QUICK will be suspended, and the token will be removed from the Buy & Sell Crypto service.
- October 20, 08:30 UTC: Users will no longer be able to open new QUICK futures positions. Futures are derivative contracts that let traders bet on price without holding the token itself.
- October 20, 09:00 UTC: Binance Futures will automatically close and settle all open QUICK contracts.
- October 20, 10:00 UTC: QUICK cross margin, isolated margin, and portfolio margin pairs will be removed. Margin trading allows users to trade with borrowed funds.
- October 21, 03:00 UTC: Spot Copy Trading will stop supporting QUICK. Remaining balances will be sold at market price, or moved to users’ spot accounts if they cannot be sold.
- October 28, 03:00 UTC: All QUICK spot trading pairs will be removed.
- October 29, 03:00 UTC: QUICK deposits will no longer be credited to user accounts.
- December 28, 03:00 UTC: QUICK withdrawals will no longer be supported.
Binance said it may convert any remaining QUICK balances into stablecoins after December 29, 2026, but the conversion is not guaranteed. QUICK Simple Earn positions will be redeemed into users’ spot accounts.
QUICK Price Falls 19.4% After Binance Announcement
QUICK fell sharply after the notice. CoinGecko data showed the token at $0.008189 at press time, down 19.4% over 24 hours. Its 24-hour range ran from a high of $0.01089 to a low of $0.007617, a drop of about 30% from peak to trough.
Trading activity rose as holders moved to exit. QUICK recorded $1.568 million in 24-hour trading volume. The token’s market capitalization stood at $5.364 million. Its fully diluted valuation (FDV), the market value if the maximum supply were in circulation, was $7.308 million.
The same listing shows a circulating supply of 656.058 million QUICK, a total supply of 893.72 million, and a maximum supply of 1 billion. QuickSwap’s total value locked (TVL), the value of assets deposited in its smart contracts, was $70.99 million. That is roughly 13 times the token’s market capitalization.
At $0.008189, QUICK traded about 96.4% below its all-time high of $0.2298 and about 37.9% above its all-time low of $0.005937.
QUICK Was Already Under Binance’s Monitoring Tag
The delisting did not come without warning. Binance placed QUICK under its Monitoring Tag on April 30, 2026. Binance applies the label to assets that show higher volatility and risk than other listed tokens. The exchange has said tokens with the tag face regular reviews and may be delisted if they no longer meet its listing standards.
Users must pass a risk quiz every 90 days to keep trading tokens that carry the tag, according to a Binance Monitoring Tag announcement. The same announcement lists the criteria Binance uses in these reviews:
- the team’s commitment to the project
- the level and quality of development activity
- trading volume and liquidity
- network and smart contract stability
- public communication
- responsiveness to due diligence requests
- any evidence of unethical or fraudulent conduct
Earlier this year, Binance followed the same tag-then-delist pattern when it removed eight altcoins in April, including FORTH, IDEX and LRC. Several of those tokens had been placed under the Monitoring Tag weeks before the delisting was announced.
What Is QuickSwap?
QuickSwap is a decentralized exchange (DEX), a platform where users trade tokens directly from their wallets without a central intermediary. It launched in 2020 on Polygon. It now runs on several Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) compatible networks, including Base and Polygon zkEVM.
QUICK is the platform’s native token and is used for staking and governance. It was redenominated from an older QUICK token at a ratio of 1:1,000.
QUICK remains available on other trading venues, including QuickSwap’s own liquidity pools and other centralized exchanges listed on CoinGecko’s markets page. The QuickSwap team had not issued a public statement on the delisting at the time of writing.
Binance Continues Periodic Asset Reviews
The QUICK delisting is part of a broader pattern of asset reviews at Binance. Last week, the exchange said it would restrict eight services and halt trading of 22 tokens for users in Brazil from October 27 to comply with new central bank rules. QUICK was not part of that action.
Binance has also involved users in delisting decisions before. In April 2025, it removed 14 tokens after its first community “Vote to Delist” exercise, though the exchange kept the final decision.
A Binance delisting does not end a token’s existence. It usually reduces liquidity and access for retail users, because one of the largest trading venues for the asset closes. QUICK holders on Binance now face a series of product closures over the next two weeks, followed by a withdrawal window that ends on December 28.
