BitMEX

On 14 October 2022 at 12:00 UTC, we will delist 14 FX perpetual swap contracts, namely:

  • EURCHF
  • USDCHF
  • USDTCHF

  • USDCNH
  • USDTCNH
  • NZDUSD
  • NZDUSDT

  • USDBRL

The contracts will be settled early at 12:00 UTC on 14 October 2022 ( “Tsettle”) according to the standard practice described in our Exchange Guide.

The decision to delist this contract has been made due to insufficient trading interest in these contracts. The 8 most liquid FX perpetuals contracts will remain listed.

The timeline for the delisting process will be as follows:

The contracts will trade as normal until 04:00 UTC on 14 October 2022 (“Tstart”).

At Tstart 04:00 UTC on 14 October 2022:

  • The Funding Rate, F0,will be calculated as normal using prices from the previous eight  hours  
  • After Tstart, the Funding Rate will no longer be calculated and the next Funding Rate will be set to 0
  • The Contract Specification pages will display early settlement information

At Tsettle 12:00 UTC on 14 October 2022:

  • The contracts will expire, all trading will cease, and all open orders will be cancelled
  • Funding, calculated using F0,will be exchanged (longs pay shorts if F0 > 0 and shorts pay longs if F0<0)
