Binance Delists Monero: Privacy Coin Tanks 37% — And It's Not An Isolated Event
Monero (CRYPTO: XMR), a digital currency known for its privacy features, is down 37% in a day following a Binance announcement that it will soon delist the cryptocurrency from its trading platform.
門羅幣（CRYPTO：XMR）是一種以其隱私功能聞名的數字貨幣，在幣安宣佈將很快將該加密貨幣從其交易平台上退市後，一天內下跌了37％。
What Happened: According to Binance's statement on Feb. 6, Monero, along with Aragon (CRYPTO: ANT), Multichain (CRYPTO: MULTI), and Vai (CRYPTO: VAI), will be delisted from the exchange on Feb. 20, 2024.
發生了什麼：根據幣安2月6日的聲明，門羅幣以及阿拉貢（加密貨幣：ANT）、多鏈（加密貨幣：MULTI）和Vai（加密貨幣：VAI）將於2024年2月20日從該交易所退市。
Consequently, Binance will cease all trading pairs associated with Monero, which includes pairings with Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC), Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH), Tether (CRYPTO: USDT), and Binance coin (CRYPTO: BNB).
因此，幣安將停止所有與門羅幣相關的交易對，其中包括與比特幣（加密貨幣：BTC）、以太坊（加密貨幣：ETH）、泰達幣（加密貨幣：USDT）和幣安幣（加密貨幣：BNB）的配對。
The announcement further detailed that, following the cessation of trading, "All trade orders will be automatically removed after trading ceases in each respective trading pair." It also specified that after May 20, 2024, withdrawals of these tokens would not be supported.
該公告進一步詳細說明，在停止交易後，“每個交易對停止交易後，所有交易訂單將自動刪除。”它還規定，在2024年5月20日之後，將不支持提取這些代幣。
Post delisting, Binance may convert the removed XMR tokens into stablecoins for users, though this is not a certainty. Binance clarified, "A separate notification will be made before the conversion where applicable, and the stablecoins will be credited to users' Binance accounts after the conversion."
退市後，幣安可能會將移除的XMR代幣轉換爲穩定幣供用戶使用，儘管這尚不確定。幣安澄清說：“如果適用，將在轉換前單獨發出通知，穩定幣將在轉換後記入用戶的幣安賬戶。”
The decision to remove XMR from Binance was influenced by several criteria, including the token's contribution to a robust and sustainable cryptocurrency ecosystem and concerns over unethical or fraudulent activities.
從幣安移除XMR的決定受到多個標準的影響，包括該代幣對強大而可持續的加密貨幣生態系統的貢獻以及對不道德或欺詐活動的擔憂。
Binance also considered the responsiveness of the tokens to its periodic due diligence requests.
幣安還考慮了代幣對其定期盡職調查請求的響應。

Why It Matters: Following the delisting announcement, the value of Monero took a sharp downturn.
爲何重要：宣佈退市後，門羅幣的價值急劇下跌。
TradingView data shows that at 9:21 am UTC, the price of XMR fell to $136 on Binance, marking a nearly 19% loss in just a few hours.
TradingView的數據顯示，世界標準時間上午9點21分，幣安XMR的價格跌至136美元，在短短几個小時內下跌了近19％。
Although there has been a slight recovery, with XMR priced at $140.30 at the time of reporting, these numbers represent lows not seen since mid-September 2023.
儘管略有回升，XMR在報告時的價格爲140.30美元，但這些數字是自2023年9月中旬以來從未見過的低點。
Binance's move to delist Monero is not an isolated event.
幣安退市門羅幣的舉動並不是一個孤立的事件。
In late 2023, the cryptocurrency exchange OKX also announced its intention to delist Monero and another privacy-centric coin, Zcash (CRYPTO: ZEC), on Jan. 5, 2024.
2023年底，加密貨幣交易所OKX還宣佈打算在2024年1月5日將門羅幣和另一種以隱私爲中心的代幣Zcash（加密貨幣：ZEC）退市。
Furthermore, Binance had previously planned to remove all privacy tokens in certain countries like France and Italy in May 2023 but reversed this decision in June 2023.
此外，幣安此前曾計劃在2023年5月移除法國和意大利等某些國家的所有隱私代幣，但在2023年6月撤銷了這一決定。
