Binance has announced adjustments to the tick size, or minimum price increment, for multiple spot trading pairs by October 14, 2025. This move aims to enhance liquidity and improve the trading experience on its platform.
According to Binance’s official support announcement, the tick size adjustments are intended to optimize price precision and overall liquidity in the platform’s spot markets. The company explained that this change is part of a periodic review of trading activity and order book depth to ensure efficient pricing and minimal slippage. Binance added that these refinements are part of its ongoing efforts to align its trading infrastructure with industry best practices and evolving market dynamics.
In this update, Binance specified that the tick size for select trading pairs will be adjusted at two intervals — by 05:00 (UTC) and 07:00 (UTC) on October 14, 2025. For example, AVAX/ETH will change from 0.00001 to 0.000001, AXS/BTC from 0.0000001 to 0.00000001, and DOT/BNB from 0.00001 to 0.000001. The company said that these refinements will not affect spot trading functionality or open orders placed before the update, which will continue to be matched at the original tick size.
Binance also noted that API users must fetch the updated tick sizes via the GET /api/v3/exchangeInfo endpoint after the update takes effect. It emphasized that users running algorithmic strategies or trading bots should modify configurations in advance to avoid execution errors or rejections post-update. The changes are part of a broader initiative to standardize tick increments across key markets and instruments, improving pricing uniformity for all traders.
