The exchange has prepared two actions that will come into effect on March 5.
The world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange has announced another update to its platform, specifically targeting popular altcoins such as Avalanche (AVAX), Litecoin (LTC), Zcash (ZEC), and more.
It also plans to remove some trading pairs that no longer meet the required criteria.
Innovators
Binance said it will open trading for AVAX/U, LINK/U, LTC/U, PAXG/U and ZEC/U on March 5. Trading bot services for these pairs are activated on the same day.
The initiative is once again focused on U (United Stables) – a stablecoin launched at the end of 2025 and pegged to the US dollar. To encourage adoption, Binance is introducing zero advertising for eligible users on U trading pairs and margin.
Over the past few weeks, the exchange has added ADA/U, DOGE/U and PEPE/U to its Cross Margin section, while XRP/U, SUI/U, ASTER/U and PAXG/U are listed on the Spot market.
AVAX, LINK, LTC, and ZEC are all in the green today (March 3), but their gains were likely driven by the broader market recovery rather than Binance’s announcement. While the company may trigger a major pump for a given cryptocurrency, this usually happens after the initial listing, not after the introduction of additional pairs.
Meanwhile, PAX Gold (PAXG) fell 4% on the day as the yellow metal fell. The cryptocurrency is backed by real, real gold, where each token holds a good troy ounce in secure vaults.

In addition to offering more trading options, Binance has also chosen to delist certain pairs that no longer meet its standards. It has cross margin pairs CHZ/BTC, CAKE/BTC, ENA/BTC, UNI/ETH, CRV/BTC, INJ/BTC, XTZ/BTC and separate margins FET/BTC, OP/BTC, PAXG/BTC, CHZ/BTC/BTC/CAV, INJ/BTC, XTZ/BTC on March 5.
“Users will no more able to transfer any amount of assets of the above mentioned pair(s) through manual transfer and automatic transfer mode to their segregated margin accounts. If users have outstanding liabilities for said tokens, those users can only manually transfer up to the amount of that token liability to their margin isolation accounts, subject to any collateral already in place,” the company said.
In addition, Binance warned that customers will not be able to update their positions during the removal process, which can take up to three hours.
The disclosure hasn’t affected the prices of the cryptocurrencies involved, as most are still posting daily gains amid a broader market recovery.
