As part of our ongoing efforts to optimize ecosystem resources and strengthen our exchange partnerships, Reef has made the decision to conclude our listing partnership with Hotcoin.

Effective May 14, 2026 at 08:00 UTC, the REEF/USDT trading pair will no longer be available on Hotcoin.

Reef regularly evaluates exchange partnerships to ensure our resources—including liquidity support and marketing efforts—are deployed where they generate the most value for the ecosystem.

After reviewing activity on Hotcoin over the past year, we determined that trading volume and user engagement did not meet expectations. The liquidity and marketing resources currently allocated to this partnership can be better utilized to support exchanges with stronger performance and deeper engagement with the Reef community.

This was a strategic decision made by Reef, and we communicated it directly to the Hotcoin team.

After June 14, 2026 at 08:00 UTC, withdrawals will be closed. Any $REEF remaining on Hotcoin after this date may be unrecoverable.

If you hold $REEF on Hotcoin, withdraw your tokens to a self-custodial wallet before June 14, 2026 at 08:00 UTC.

A list of supported wallets is available at awesomereef.xyz.

Native $REEF remains available on the following exchanges:

• MEXC

• Gate

• CoinEx

• WhiteBIT

• KuCoin

• CoinSpot

• Bitrue

• Poloniex

• HTX

• BitMart

• Paribu

A complete list of supported exchanges is available at reef.io.

This decision allows us to concentrate resources on partnerships that deliver stronger results for the Reef ecosystem. As we continue building toward the Deep Current upgrade and our vision as the tokenized equity platform for all, we remain focused on quality over quantity in every aspect of our operations—including exchange relationships.

We thank the Hotcoin team for their support over the past year and wish them continued success.

If you have questions, reach out via Discord, Telegram, or the live chat feature at docs.reef.io.
