Binance has announced the removal of non-MiCA compliant stablecoin trading pairs for the European Economic Area (EEA), including USDT, DAI, and FDUSD. However, compliant alternatives such as USDC and EURI will remain available. The announcement was made on March 3 via Binance's website.

Starting March 31, Binance will discontinue trading pairs involving these non-compliant stablecoins for European users. According to Cointelegraph, while trading for these assets will cease, users can still deposit, withdraw, and convert their holdings into compliant alternatives like USDC and EURI. This move aligns with the Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation's new requirements for stablecoin issuers, which enforce stricter regulatory oversight and backing reserves.

CoinSpeaker reports that Binance is introducing several promotions to encourage users to transition to MiCA-compliant stablecoins. These include zero-fee trading on select USDC pairs and an incentive campaign for trading EURI. Additionally, the exchange has launched a stablecoin conversion program that allows users to swap non-compliant assets for compliant alternatives before the deadline. Binance's approach aims to facilitate a smooth regulatory transition while maintaining liquidity within the European market.
