#密码资产动态追踪 The delisting wave is here, don’t panic! Veteran traders break it down for you

A recent news story has been dominating the headlines—one major exchange announced it will delist 20 spot trading pairs including ACT/FDUSD, AEVO/FDUSD, effective January 13, 2026. The group chat indeed exploded, but after years in this space, I have to clarify: don’t just look at the news headlines, let’s check the on-chain data before jumping to conclusions.

The official reason given is "review results," but what’s the truth? The on-chain data has long told the story—these trading pairs’ activity has already dried up. Some tokens have daily trading volumes embarrassingly low, clearly inflated by wash trading to create the illusion of activity. This move, frankly, is the platform cleaning house and optimizing the ecosystem—eliminating unpopular trading pairs and focusing resources on truly valuable projects.

In the short term, there will be volatility, especially for tokens sustained by false prosperity. Holders should be alert to the risk of being caught in a dump, and take profits decisively when needed. But—here’s a very important "but."

What about the long term? I dare say the crypto market still has great potential. Why am I so confident? Because on-chain data shows that big funds haven’t left. Real innovations like DeFi and Layer2 are still racing ahead—that’s the main theme of the market. Every reshuffle in the market is essentially a process of pruning the weak and leaving the strong. I’ve previously predicted bottom rebounds by closely monitoring on-chain movements and news, and most of those calls turned out to be accurate.

Delisting isn’t a bad thing; it’s actually a sign of the market’s self-correction. It forces project teams to improve quality and helps retail investors see what’s real gold and what’s air coins. Truly valuable tokens can withstand the test.

So my simple advice to everyone: stay calm, don’t follow the herd and sell off impulsively. Short-term fluctuations are normal—hold onto the tokens you believe in, and don’t hesitate to cut loose the trash projects. The long-term logic of the crypto market remains unchanged—technological innovation continues, and opportunities are always there. Let’s keep an eye on the on-chain data and wait for the wind to come. $ETH

ACT-4,14%

FDUSD-0,02%

AEVO-5,42%

DEFI4,06%

Another one of those "Don't Panic" motivational posts, full of flowery words, but in the end, you still have to bear the risk yourself. Really? If big funds didn't run, how come I didn't notice? It feels like everyone is just watching and waiting. Why weren't those delisted tokens notified in advance? Retail investors are going to get cut again. On-chain data is so impressive, why didn't anyone buy the dip early? I just don't get it. It's easy to say, but when it comes to actually cutting losses, everyone panics. I think many people are thinking the same. Sticking to holding coins, huh? I'll see how far this drop will go first.

Haha, here comes the pump again, this time under a different name --- On-chain data? Bro, I've heard this kind of talk too many times --- Basically, it's just the exchange pumping coins that can't be moved, clever --- Wait, big funds haven't run? Then why has there been so much net outflow in the past two months --- Really? Can my coins still turn around? --- Delisting is just delisting. Don't call it market recovery; it's just clearing out the worthless tokens --- I just want to know if any of these 20 pairs include my holdings lol --- Weakening the weak and strengthening the strong sounds reasonable, but who can be sure which one is truly strong? --- Multiple bottom rebounds don't change the essence, bro --- Air coins should be pumped, but the problem is how to tell who is an air coin --- I believe in DeFi and Layer2, but that doesn't mean the current prices are reasonable

Ha, it's another wave of delistings. Is it ACT's turn this time? It's been obvious for a while—garbage coins deserve to die. Honestly, those most likely to be trapped are the free-riding sheep. I've already reinvested in other projects; once you see through the cuttings, there's no need to panic. On-chain data speaks for itself. Why bother looking at K-line charts? Large funds haven't even left; that's the real signal. Resetting a few coins isn't a big deal. Anyway, the electricity cost party has already recouped their free ride, now just waiting for the next wave of bagholders. Playing the game of interaction and free riding still needs to continue. Making big money quietly is the right way. Don't get mixed up with those who cut their losses.

Oh no, another clearance? I've been annoyed by these pump-and-dump coins for a long time. On-chain data has been dead for a while, and I fully support the platform's recent actions. Short-term retail investors cutting losses, get ready to be slapped in the face by the rebound. Trust me, I'm right. The real money is in DeFi. Don't be scared by the delisting news. Junk coins dying is actually a sign of a healthy market. That's how I see it. This is called reshuffling. Weak coins are being eliminated, creating opportunities for promising projects.

Here comes the harvest again? Those delisted coins were obvious from the start; it's just empty prosperity.

On-chain data doesn't lie. Those that have been delisted are no longer viewed by anyone. Cleaning up junk projects is a good thing for us.

nah, the delisting pattern is actually fascinating from a governance design perspective. if you look at the merkle tree of token activity—volume distributions, holder concentration—most of these pairs fail basic composability checks. it's like they're trying to implement a feature without proper smart contract audits first. market self-healing mechanism tbh.

Ha, it's another good opportunity for panic selling. Retail investors, it's time to wake up. That said, I’ve long looked down on those coins that got delisted. They’re really trash. I believe that big funds haven't run away; on-chain data can't be fooled. Let’s see who can survive until the end. That’s right, short-term fluctuations are normal. The key is what you are holding. This round of delistings is actually a good thing, clearing out those worthless tokens to prevent harming newcomers.
