Binance announced an adjustment to tick sizes for multiple USDⓈ-M Perpetual Futures Contracts on September 3, 2025, aimed at improving liquidity and the trading experience.
According to Binance, “tick size” refers to the minimum increment by which futures contract prices can move. Adjusting this parameter is critical to maintaining efficient order execution and tight bid-ask spreads. Such updates are part of Binance’s broader strategy to fine-tune market dynamics and ensure optimal trading conditions for users. The exchange reinforced that these adjustments are standard operational refinements and do not disrupt overall trading functionality.
Binance specified that the tick size changes will take effect on September 3, 2025, at 07:00 UTC across several markets: DOLOUSDT, HAEDALUSDT, and BANKUSDT will see tick sizes change from 0.000001 to 0.00001; WLDUSDC and NXPCUSDT from 0.00001 to 0.0001; XVGUSDT from 0.0000001 to 0.000001; BUSDT and AUSDT from 0.00001 to 0.0001; and AWEUSDT from 0.000001 to 0.00001. These refinements enable more precise order placement, which can enhance market depth and improve pricing mechanisms.
Binance assured users that existing orders placed before the update will continue to be matched using the original tick sizes, preserving continuity. For API (Application Programming Interface) users, updated tick size information will be accessible through the GET /fapi/v1/exchangeInfo endpoint; this ensures that automated systems and tools can read the new parameters seamlessly. The company also advised traders to review the updated Trading Rules and adjust their strategies accordingly.
As detailed on Binance’s official company profile, the exchange was founded in 2017 and has since become the world’s largest cryptocurrency trading platform by volume, serving millions of users across spot and derivatives markets, staking, lending, and Web3 infrastructure. Continuous enhancements—like the tick size update—reflect Binance’s commitment to optimizing market efficiency and elevating the trading experience for its global user base.
