Binance has announced plans to adjust the tick size on several USDⓈ-M perpetual futures contracts, aiming to enhance market liquidity and trading efficiency. The tick size, which is the minimum price increment for futures contract prices, plays a critical role in order placement and liquidity.
According to Binance's announcement, these changes are intended to optimize the user trading experience and open interest by aligning contract increments with trading activity. The company reassured that overall futures trading operations will remain unaffected by these backend adjustments.
On August 25, 2025, at 07:00 UTC, Binance will implement the tick size revisions on eight USDⓈ-M perpetual futures pairs. These include AIOTUSDT, IPUSDT, IPUSDC, ESPORTSUSDT, AEVOUSDT, SWELLUSDT, BICOUSDT, and HOOKUSDT. The announcement specifies that AIOTUSDT, IPUSDT, and IPUSDC will adjust from 0.00001 to 0.0001 while ESPORTSUSDT and AEVOUSDT will change from 0.0001 to 0.00001 among other pair-specific updates. These adjustments aim to reflect liquidity characteristics and improve price accuracy across diverse contracts.
