Source-checked briefing: prepared from the official notice cited below and checked for source, date, duplication, and risk language. No individual editor review is claimed. Methodology
Bitunix announced on 2026-11-02 that it will adjust risk limits for 15 perpetual futures pairs, effective 2026-11-04 at 06:00 UTC. The published tables show tier value thresholds rising while max leverage and maintenance margin rates per tier stay the same. The source states the new limits apply to both new and existing positions and that some positions may be partially reduced to comply. It does not establish any required action; the only operational step it names is restarting the app or refreshing the webpage if abnormal data such as the liquidation price appears.

Key timeline
Bitunix publishes the risk-limit adjustment notice.
New risk limits take effect across the 15 listed perpetual futures pairs, applying to new and existing positions.
Who may be affected
- Traders holding or opening positions in any of the 15 named Bitunix perpetual futures pairs
- Users whose position value sits near a tier boundary that changes on 2026-11-04
Impact analysis
The confirmed operational change is a re-tiering of position-value thresholds. Because max leverage and MMR per tier are unchanged in the published tables, the shift moves the value at which a given leverage and margin rate applies, rather than altering those rates themselves. Bitunix explicitly extends the new limits to existing positions and warns that some positions may be partially reduced to comply, so holders in the named pairs are directly in scope. The notice also flags possible display anomalies such as liquidation price, for which it prescribes an app restart or page refresh. It does not describe effects on order books, funding, liquidity or asset values, and none should be assumed. This content is not investment or trading advice.
What the announcement does not say
The source does not state which specific positions will be partially reduced, how partial reductions would be executed, or whether any compensation applies. It also does not explain why thresholds were raised, whether further changes are planned, or how the change interacts with funding or mark-price mechanics.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to do anything before 2026-11-04 06:00 UTC?

Will my leverage or maintenance margin rate change?

The notice names only the 15 listed pairs. It does not state any effect on other Bitunix markets, and none should be assumed.
