Impact analysis
The tick size adjustment directly changes the minimum price increment and quantity increment for the three specified spot pairs. Existing orders are not canceled, but their displayed prices and quantities will be rounded: buy orders round down, sell orders round up. Fills for existing orders remain at the original tick sizes. After the adjustment, all users, including API users, cannot use the older tick size. API users must fetch the latest tick size via the specified endpoint. The announcement does not state any impact on asset safety, liquidity, or market price beyond the stated goal of increasing market liquidity and improving trading experience.
