BitMEX delists 65 trading pairs, derivatives in July amid exchange shutdown
BitMEX will have removed 65 derivative contracts and trading pairs in July, compared with just 19 across the first six months of the year.
Crypto exchange BitMEX accelerated its delisting of derivative contracts and trading pairs in July due to “insufficient trading interest,” offering a glimpse at declining activity on the platform surrounding its decision to wind down the exchange.
BitMEX’s website shows that in early July, it delisted 21 derivative contracts; two weeks later, BitMEX delisted nine spot pairs for lack of trading interest. On Thursday, BitMEX added another 35 derivative contracts to the queue for delisting, totaling 65 delistings in July.
