Cryptocurrency exchange OKX has announced that it will delist the XRP/OKB spot trading pair from its platform, along with several other spot trading pairs. This decision is part of OKX’s efforts to improve the spot trading environment, uphold strict listing requirements, and optimize liquidity. The delisting will take place in two phases, with the first set of spot trading pairs being axed on October 27 and the second set on October 30. OKX has instructed users to cancel all orders associated with the delisted trading pairs before the deadline. Despite the delisting, the price of XRP has not been negatively affected, with the cryptocurrency recently experiencing a price spike of over 16%. OKX still supports other spot trading pairs for XRP, including XRP/BTC, XRP/USDC, XRP/USDT, and XRP/ETH. The decision to delist the XRP/OKB pair was influenced by its low weekly turnover compared to other pairs involving USDT on Binance.
