Notice terminology, English and Chinese

What it solves

The same event gets different words in English and Chinese notices, and even within one language the translations are not standardised. "Delisting", "removal" and "trading suspension" can point at the same thing, while "suspend deposits" and "suspend withdrawals" differ by one word and by an order of magnitude in consequence. This lines them up and marks how urgent each is.

How to work it

The search box matches English, Chinese and parts of the explanations, filtering as you type, no need to press enter. The category control narrows to deadlines, states or actions. Clearing the box restores the full list.

What the categories mean

• Deadlines: the terms attached to dates, which determine how much time you have;
• States — terms describing the current condition of an asset or account, usually without a date;
• Actions: terms that require you to do something.

Where the data comes from

Compiled by the editorial desk from public exchange notices and help documentation, checked in August 2026. It is written into the page and requests nothing, and it does not update itself when a platform changes its wording. Translations were never fully standardised across platforms in the first place, where a phrasing is missing here, the original text of your own notice governs.

How to judge urgency

Each entry notes what it means for you. The order worth memorising: deposits closing is earliest and least consequential; trading closing determines whether you can still sell; withdrawals closing is the real deadline; and a forced conversion clause effectively moves that deadline forward.

Who it is for

Anyone who finds English notices hard going, or who has been tangled up by near-synonyms. Experienced readers can skip it and just read the dates.
