ViteX to Suspend Display for Certain Trading Pairs

The ViteX team is always looking to provide users with a better trading experience and protect the rights and interests of investors. As such, we recently worked with operators to limit the display of certain trading pairs. In general, operators should monitor activeness of projects after their listings. When an operator sees that a project is no longer actively developing, it should suspend the display of relevant trading pairs for such project.

Note that since ViteX is a decentralized exchange, the trading pairs still live on the Vite chain. The ViteX team is merely making changes to the user interface to disable the display of these trading pairs. Therefore, undisplayed trading pairs are not “delisted.” Users may access them via either a third-party community-built website, or entering URLs on vite.net (example: https://x.vite.net/trade?symbol=XYZ-000_ABC-000). Also, since users custody their own tokens (Vite-wrapped), the security of these assets are not affected.
