Crypto giant Binance has expanded its margin trading options. The exchange brought four new cross-margin pairs and six new isolated margin pairs, including familiar coins like XRP and Cardano (ADA).
The update introduced new ways to trade with ADA, AVAX, MATIC, and XRP using margin, potentially amplifying gains (or losses) for experienced users. Additionally, six other altcoins, including AC Milan Fan Token (ACM), FIO Protocol (FIO), and IQ (IQ), were added to the list of borrowable assets.

According to the exchange, the new cross-margin pairs include ADA/USDC, AVAX/USDC, MATIC/USDC, and XRP/USDC. As for the isolated margin pairs, the exchange added ACM/USDT, AVAX/USDC, FIO/USDT, IQ/USDT, NEXO/USDT, and QKC/USDT.
In the announcement, the trading platform wrote, “Binance Margin strives to enhance user trading experience by continuously reviewing and expanding the list of trading choices offered on the platform, allowing for greater diversification of user portfolios and flexibility with trading strategies.”
Despite the potential excitement, prices of the involved altcoins barely budged. Unlike the usual frenzy associated with new listings, these established tokens on Binance saw minimal movement, leaving some traders and investors to wonder.
Possible Reasons for the Calm
Several factors could explain the muted response. First, most of these tokens were already tradable on Binance, so the “new listing” appeal might be missing. Second, margin trading caters to a specific group of experienced investors, not necessarily reflecting the broader market sentiment.

Binance: A Moving Target
This expansion is just another chapter in Binance’s dynamic approach to listings and delistings. Earlier this year, the exchange delisted coins like Monero (XMR) and Aragon (ANT), showcasing their flexibility. Additionally, the upcoming delisting of leveraged tokens like BNBUP/USDT suggests a focus on responsible trading practices.
While the initial price impact appears minimal, the crypto market is a wild beast. Long-term effects could emerge as trading activity and community sentiment evolve.
