Key timeline
Bitunix publishes the tick-size adjustment notice.
Tick-size adjustment takes effect for the six listed spot pairs.
Who may be affected
- Users trading APU/USDT, IQ/USDT, MYX/USDT, XTER/USDT, PONS/USDT or CYS/USDT spot pairs on Bitunix
- Users with existing orders in those six pairs, whom the source says will not be affected during the adjustment
Impact analysis
The confirmed operational change is narrower price quoting on six spot pairs: each pair's price precision increases by one decimal place and its tick size shrinks tenfold. The source frames the change as aimed at market liquidity and trading experience, but it provides no data on liquidity, spreads or execution outcomes, so no effect on those can be confirmed. The only stated continuity point is that existing orders will not be affected during the adjustment period. The only stated remedy for post-adjustment abnormalities is refreshing the trading page, which the source says restores normal display automatically. Pairs outside the six listed are not covered by the notice. This content is not investment or trading advice.
What the announcement does not say
The source does not state the exact duration of the adjustment period, whether order books or displayed prices will be paused, whether any order types will be rejected at the new precision, or how the change affects liquidity in practice. It also does not say whether the change is permanent or may be revised again.
