Binance has announced plans to update the leverage and margin tiers of specific USDⓈ-M Perpetual Contracts from September 23 to 25, 2025. This announcement was made through a press release.

According to Binance, the notice outlines a rolling adjustment to risk parameters on Binance Futures over several days. The UXLINKUSDT contract will undergo multiple revisions between September 23 and 25, while the NEIROETHUSDT contract will be adjusted on September 24. Updates are expected to complete in about an hour per batch. Binance cautions that "existing positions opened before the update will be affected" and warns that grid strategies may expire, urging users to adjust ahead of the changes. The adjustments include tightened notional brackets, rebalanced maintenance margin rates, and in some cases, the removal of higher leverage bands at lower notionals to align contract risk with liquidity conditions.

Numerically, on September 23 at 09:30 (UTC), changes for UXLINKUSDT involve removing the 26–50x band and shifting the 21–25x tier to cover 0–7,500 USDT notionals (from 5,000–10,000), while lowering the 1x cap to 6,000,000 USDT from 12,500,000. On September 24 at 06:30 (UTC), NEIROETHUSDT consolidated tiers with a 5x leverage applying to 0–50,000 USDT at a 10.00% maintenance rate. A subsequent adjustment on September 25 at 06:30 (UTC) for UXLINKUSDT compresses upper notional bands further (e.g., reducing the range for a 1x leverage from between 1,000,000 and 2,000,000 USDT), illustrating progressive de-risking as liquidity and volatility evolve.

Binance is recognized as commanding a leading share of global crypto derivatives volume. Even marginal parameter shifts can impact millions in notional exposure. Public trackers in recent years have frequently shown Binance clearing tens of billions of dollars in daily futures turnover and maintaining a market share around the mid-50% range. For risk desks, a change of just half to one percentage point in maintenance rates or a reduction of top-band notionals can significantly alter liquidation thresholds and available leverage across portfolio strategies tied to single-asset perpetual contracts.

Founded in 2017 by Changpeng Zhao and Yi He, Binance operates one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges by trading volume. It offers spot trading as well as margin and derivatives markets alongside Earn programs, custody services, and developer tools. Since November 2023, Richard Teng has served as CEO. The platform’s USDⓈ-M and COIN-M futures options and Portfolio Margin frameworks aim at capital efficiency while enforcing exchange-set risk controls. With its distributed corporate footprint and large retail/institutional user base, Binance is central to digital-asset price discovery and liquidity.
