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.
门罗币（CRYPTO：XMR）是一种以其隐私功能闻名的数字货币，在币安宣布将很快将该加密货币从其交易平台上退市后，一天内下跌了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.
发生了什么：根据币安2月6日的声明，门罗币以及阿拉贡（加密货币：ANT）、多链（加密货币：MULTI）和Vai（加密货币：VAI）将于2024年2月20日从该交易所退市。
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，币安将停止所有与门罗币相关的交易对，其中包括与比特币（加密货币：BTC）、以太坊（加密货币：ETH）、泰达币（加密货币：USDT）和币安币（加密货币：BNB）的配对。
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.
该公告进一步详细说明，在停止交易后，“每个交易对停止交易后，所有交易订单将自动删除。”它还规定，在2024年5月20日之后，将不支持提取这些代币。
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."
退市后，币安可能会将移除的XMR代币转换为稳定币供用户使用，尽管这尚不确定。币安澄清说：“如果适用，将在转换前单独发出通知，稳定币将在转换后记入用户的币安账户。”
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.
从币安移除XMR的决定受到多个标准的影响，包括该代币对强大而可持续的加密货币生态系统的贡献以及对不道德或欺诈活动的担忧。
Binance also considered the responsiveness of the tokens to its periodic due diligence requests.
币安还考虑了代币对其定期尽职调查请求的响应。

Why It Matters: Following the delisting announcement, the value of Monero took a sharp downturn.
为何重要：宣布退市后，门罗币的价值急剧下跌。
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的数据显示，世界标准时间上午9点21分，币安XMR的价格跌至136美元，在短短几个小时内下跌了近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.
尽管略有回升，XMR在报告时的价格为140.30美元，但这些数字是自2023年9月中旬以来从未见过的低点。
Binance's move to delist Monero is not an isolated event.
币安退市门罗币的举动并不是一个孤立的事件。
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，加密货币交易所OKX还宣布打算在2024年1月5日将门罗币和另一种以隐私为中心的代币Zcash（加密货币：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，币安此前曾计划在2023年5月移除法国和意大利等某些国家的所有隐私代币，但在2023年6月撤销了这一决定。
