Binance to Delist EPIC and QUICK on October 28, 2026
Key Takeaways
- •Binance announced on October 14, 2026, that spot trading of EPIC and QUICK will end on October 28, 2026, and it did not cite any reason such as liquidity, volume, or compliance for the removals.
- •EPIC is the native token of Epic Chain, which rebr from Ethernity Chain in early 2025 via a 1:1 swap of ERN, and Binance opened the EPIC/USDT market in March 2025.
- •QUICK serves as the governance and utility token for QuickSwap, a decentralized exchange built on Polygon, and Binance adjusted its margin and futures offerings in June 2026.
- •Binance has not yet published withdrawal timelines or explained how remaining balances will be handled once the delisting takes effect, making this the main open question for holders.
- •The removals are separate from Binance's October 2026 restriction of 22 tokens for Brazilian users, and neither Epic Chain nor QuickSwap has offered public commentary on the decision.

Binance will delist two tokens this month, removing EPIC and QUICK from its platform on October 28, 2026. Once that date passes, spot trading in both assets on the exchange comes to an end. The exchange announced the decision on October 14, 2026, leaving holders exactly two weeks to decide what to do. Binance did not attach a public explanation, so traders received a date without a stated reason.
Two Tokens, Two Different Histories
EPIC is the native token of Epic Chain, a project that was previously known as Ethernity Chain. Its token traded under the ticker ERN before a rebrand in early 2025. Binance supported that transition with a 1:1 token swap, under which every ERN converted into one EPIC, and opened trading on the EPIC/USDT pair in March 2025 — the same market this delisting now brings to a close.
QUICK plays a different role. It serves as the governance and utility token for QuickSwap, a decentralized exchange built on the Polygon network. QUICK had already seen changes on Binance before this: in June 2026, the exchange made adjustments to QUICK's margin and futures offerings. Neither token, however, had previously faced a global spot delisting announcement on Binance.
What Binance Has and Hasn't Said
The announcement covers the essentials: which tokens are going and when. Binance did not cite liquidity, trading volume, or compliance concerns as reasons for the removals. As of now, the exchange has not published on withdrawal timelines, nor has it explained how any remaining balances will be handled once the delisting takes effect. Delisting notices are often followed by separate instructions on withdrawals or balance conversions, so until Binance publishes one, that remains the biggest open logistical question for holders.
The projects themselves have also not offered public commentary on the decision.
The Broader Binance Backdrop
The timing lands during a busy stretch for Binance on the compliance front. In October 2026, the exchange restricted access to 22 tokens for users in Brazil as part of regional regulatory measures. EPIC and QUICK were not part of that Brazil action, and there is no indication in the available material that the two removals are connected to it.
What This Means for Holders and Traders
There is a structural difference between the two cases worth keeping in mind. QUICK is tied to QuickSwap, a decentralized exchange where the token can trade entirely outside of centralized venues; its governance and utility functions on the protocol do not depend on any single Binance listing. EPIC, as the project token of Epic Chain, depends on whatever other markets and platforms continue to support it. Holders of either asset will want to check where else the tokens trade before the Binance window closes.
For now, the practical checklist is short. Holders should watch for any follow-up notice from Binance on withdrawals, monitor statements from the Epic Chain and QuickSwap teams, and decide on positions before October 28.
