The exchange stated that despite the review process, the concerns surrounding ZIL were unresolved, leading to the termination of its trading support.<\/p>\n<p>Bithumb&#8217;s announcement of delisting ZIL follows a similar rationale, though they have yet to specify when trading will cease on their platform. This lack of clarity has raised questions among users and investors about the future of ZIL.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Implications_for_Other_Tokens\"><\/span>Implications for Other Tokens<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>In addition to the delisting of ZIL, Bithumb announced that the <strong>MANTRA<\/strong> token will remain on the delisting watchlist, extending its review period. This indicates ongoing scrutiny but does not automatically suggest an impending delisting.<\/p>\n<p>Cryptocurrency exchanges frequently reassess the assets they offer based on a set of criteria. The withdrawal of support for a token generally reflects unresolved concerns over its performance or stability.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Market_Impact\"><\/span>Market Impact<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The removal of Zilliqa from these major exchanges could impact its trading volume and investor sentiment, given the prominence of both Upbit and Bithumb in the South Korean cryptocurrency market.
