Six pairs will move to the Stablecoin Schedule: TBTC/BTC, USDS/EUR, USDD/EUR, METH/ETH, CMETH/ETH and EURR/USDC. Ten pairs will move to the Spot Crypto Schedule: BTC/FIDD, ETH/FIDD, BTC/EUROP, BTC/USD1, BTC/EURC, BTC/AUSD, ETH/PYUSD, ETH/EUROP, ETH/USD1 and ETH/EURC.
The announcement noted maker rebates will continue on 650+ other trading pairs and described the update as part of ongoing steps to keep the rebate programme effective and sustainable.
