Binance is also offering the users the facility of making deposits and withdrawals in the form of Pax Dollar (USDP) on the network of Ethereum. The Ethereum network of Binance now allows users to make deposits and withdrawals in Pax Dollar. The network of Binance Smart Chain will come into operation at a later date to enable the deposit and withdrawal of the Pax Dollar at a later date. The trading pair USDP/BUSD will be available for trading at Zero Trading Fee Promotion against the PAX/BUSD pair.
The platform of Binance has released the following notifications in the course of rebranding the Pax Standard:
Binance is going to suspend deposit and withdrawal in Pax at 02:00 UTC on 2021-09-06. It is advisable that Binance users make sure they have enough time for processing the Pax deposit prior to the suspension.
The platform of Binance is going to suspend trading for every Pax trading pair that includes PAX/BUSD, PAX/USDT, BNB/PAX, ETH/PAX, and BTC/PAX.
