Key timeline
Bitunix publishes the tick size adjustment notice.
Scheduled tick size adjustment for the nine listed spot pairs.
Who may be affected

Impact analysis
The confirmed operational change is a new minimum price increment and price precision for nine Bitunix spot pairs. For APT/USDT, ASTER/USDT, MOVE/USDT, NOM/USDT, TOWNS/USDT, and XVS/USDT the tick size becomes finer, meaning the smallest permitted price step is smaller than before. For COOKIE/USDT the tick size becomes coarser, from 0.000001 to 0.00001. SHELL/USDT and WAL/USDT also move to 0.00001. The notice states existing orders are not affected during the adjustment period, so no order cancellation or re-entry is described as necessary. After the adjustment, the only stated remedy for abnormal conditions is refreshing the trading page, which the notice says restores normal operation automatically. The source does not describe effects on order books, fills, or prices beyond the tick size change itself.
What the announcement does not say
The source does not state the exact duration of the adjustment period, whether trading is paused, how partially filled or conditional orders behave after the change, or whether any pairs beyond the nine listed are affected. It also does not explain why the COOKIE/USDT tick size becomes coarser.
