Binance delistings: do coins recover? Price 1h/24h/7d after the notice
The numbers in this article are computed live from our record of exchange announcements and change as new events are priced. Latest event included: October 16, 2026.
When Binance announces that it will delist a token, the pairs usually keep trading for several days before they close. That window raises an obvious question: is the first drop an overreaction that recovers, or the start of a longer slide?
No predictions — just the record. Since Aug 2023 our radar has stored 55 Binance delisting announcements covering 169 measured coins, each priced on the same market at the moment of the notice and 1 hour, 24 hours and 7 days later. All figures are medians, recomputed as new notices are priced.
The short answer
The median delisted coin was at -12.2% an hour after the notice, -15.5% after 24 hours and -21.4% after 7 days. 18% of coins were above the notice price a week later.
Do they recover after the first day?
“Recovery” can mean two things, so we measure both. Against the price at the notice: 18% of coins were higher after 7 days. Against the 24-hour price — did the coin bounce after the first-day drop? — 27% of coins were higher on day 7 than at hour 24 (n = 122). For the rest, the price on day 7 was at or below where it stood after the first day.
The spread matters more than the median here. The table shows the quartiles at each horizon: a quarter of coins did better than the right-hand column, and a quarter did worse than the left-hand one.
| After | n | Worst quarter at or below | Median | Best quarter at or above | Share higher |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 hour | 168 | -23.6% | -12.2% | -2.8% | 11% |
| 24 hours | 168 | -30.4% | -15.5% | -2.9% | 16% |
| 7 days | 122 | -46.6% | -21.4% | -5.8% | 18% |
Year by year
Binance's delisting announcements have become more frequent, and the reaction differs from year to year. Years with few coins are marked as small samples.

Binance vs other exchanges
Is a Binance delisting worse than the same notice elsewhere? The 24-hour median by exchange on our record: Binance -15.5% (n = 168), Upbit -9.0% (n = 23), OKX -5.5% (n = 105), Bybit -3.8% (n = 517). The delisting research page has the full per-exchange table at every horizon.
What this means in practice
- Compare the 24-hour median (-15.5%) with the 7-day one (-21.4%) before treating the first drop as an overreaction.
- Liquidity thins out before the pairs close: spreads widen and slippage grows, so the price on the screen is not always a price you can trade at.
- Upbit usually flags a coin before delisting it — see what happens after an Upbit warning flag.
- Delisting notices from all five exchanges appear on the announcements radar as they are published.
How this is measured
Every announcement from the exchange's public feed is stored with the coin's price on the same market (Binance or Bybit, spot first) at the moment it was published, then 1 hour, 24 hours and 7 days later. Brand-new tokens whose trading started after the announcement are left out of the medians: their first price is an opening auction, not a reaction to the news. One coin-event is one ticker in one announcement; moves beyond ±1000% are treated as bad data and left out, and groups of fewer than 5 coins show no median. Older announcements come from the exchanges' archives and are priced from historical candles.
