Binance Drops a Bomb: TAO, ADA, DOGE, PEPE Get Fresh Margin Moves

Binance, the grown-up of the crypto playground, has tinkered with its rules in a way that will amuse and annoy traders of DOGE, PEPE, ADA, and the rest of the alt-tribe.

Prices wobbled upward after the announcement, and yet I suspect there’s more going on than a single press release-perhaps a general market flutter that’s borrowed a little lipstick for the day.

The New Pairs

TAO/USD1, ADA/U, DOGE/U, and PEPE/U have joined Binance’s Cross Margin. This is the bit where all funds in a margin account share the glory (and the losses) across every open trade. In Cross Margin, a stumble in one position can be paid for by the others, which keeps the party going a bit longer.

Today, Bittensor (TAO), Cardano (ADA), Dogecoin (DOGE), and Pepe (PEPE) are looking sprightly in green-roughly 4% to 9% up. While the usual suspects deserve a nod, the bigger plot line is likely the overall market resurgence in the last 24 hours.

The whole crypto carnival has lifted, with Bitcoin nudging past $66,000 and Ethereum flirting with the $2,000 mark.

Do note: bigger pumps after a Binance listing are more common when a token first appears than when it merely grows more trading pairs. Last September, the arrival of the lesser-known Avantis (AVNT) caused a 50% leap after the news landed.

The latest listing centers on U (United Stables) – a stablecoin launched in late 2025 and pegged to the dollar. Binance has been keen on extending its support for U, adding XRP/U, SUI/U, ASTER/U, and PAXG/U on Binance Spot.

Goodbye to These Ones

Binance is also trimming the grove a bit by delisting certain pairs that no longer pass the criteria. Farewell to DOT/BRL, GALA/BRL, GALA/EUR, GRT/ETH, GRT/EUR, OP/EUR, and SOL/ARS on February 27.

The company explains that removing a spot trading pair doesn’t wipe the tokens from Binance Spot; users can still trade the base and quote assets via other available pairs.

The delisted assets haven’t swooned; in fact, they’re all in the green amid the market rebound, with Polkadot (DOT) standing out by jumping about 17% in the last 24 hours.
