Binance has announced an upcoming change to its Portfolio Margin collateral ratios for multiple assets, set to take effect on May 16, 2025, at 06:00 UTC. The update is expected to complete within one hour.
This adjustment affects several altcoins, reducing their effectiveness as collateral within margin accounts. Users operating under the Portfolio Margin system are advised to closely monitor their Unified Maintenance Margin Ratio (uniMMR)to avoid potential liquidations due to these changes.
Key Changes in Collateral Ratios:
| Asset | Old Ratio | New Ratio |
|---|---|---|
| CAKE | 80% | 75% |
| IOTA | 70% | 60% |
| AXS | 70% | 60% |
| MASK | 60% | 50% |
| CHZ | 65% | 50% |
| BAT | 65% | 50% |
| GTC | 50% | 40% |
| PORTAL | 50% | 35% |
| ZEC | 30% | 20% |
| MOVE | 20% | 10% |
| BSW | 20% | 10% |
Important Notes:
These reductions will impact how much borrowing power each asset provides within Portfolio Margin accounts.
A lower collateral ratio means the asset contributes less toward maintaining margin requirements.
Binance urges all Portfolio Margin users to review their positions and adjust accordingly to prevent forced liquidations.
This update reflects Binance’s ongoing risk management adjustments amid evolving market conditions. Users are reminded to refer to the official English announcement for the most accurate information.
