Bybit and Binance announce delistings of USDT perpetual contracts

Bybit said it will delist its VELODROMEUSDT perpetual contract, and Binance said it will delist the PTBUSDT and MITOUSDT USDⓈ-M perpetual contracts. Each announcement applies to a specific contract rather than to USDT itself.

Claims and open questions

What sources claim

  • Bybit published an announcement titled "Delisting of VELODROMEUSDT Perpetual Contract," stating the contract will be delisted.
  • Binance published an announcement stating that its USDⓈ-M perpetual contracts PTBUSDT and MITOUSDT will be delisted on 2026-10-23.

Still unresolved

  • What effective date and time Bybit set for the VELODROMEUSDT delisting, and the settlement price used to close positions, would need Bybit's full announcement text or an exchange notice.
  • The settlement price and delisting time Binance will apply to PTBUSDT and MITOUSDT would need Binance's complete announcement or a futures notice.
