Spot Trading Ends on August 5, 2026 at 10:00 AM UTC
On August 5, 2026 at 10:00 AM UTC, ApeX Omni will officially disable all Spot entry points and stop all Spot trading functions. This applies to the full Spot product surface across the platform.
Nothing changes before that moment. Spot markets stay open and orders execute as usual right up to the cutoff.
The key dates:
Now through August 5, 2026, 10:00 AM UTC: Spot trading remains fully available.
August 5, 2026, 10:00 AM UTC: Spot entry points are disabled and trading stops.
After the cutoff: Remaining balances are processed and returned according to the rules below.
Swapping to USDT Before the Deadline Is the Simplest Path
The cleanest option is to handle it yourself. Swap your Spot tokens into USDT before August 5. That USDT is then immediately usable for perpetuals and other products on ApeX Omni, with no waiting period and no ticket to file.
Doing this in advance avoids the processing timelines described below. It also gives you full control over the price you exit at, rather than leaving the position open through the closure.
USDT Left in Spot Moves to Your Funding Account
If you still hold USDT in your Spot account after August 5, 2026 at 10:00 AM UTC, it will be transferred automatically to your ApeX Omni Funding Account.
No action is needed on your side. Once the transfer completes, the balance can be traded or withdrawn as normal. The default withdrawal network is Arbitrum.
Tokens on Ethereum, BSC, and Base Will Be Airdropped to Your L1 Wallet
Non-USDT tokens are handled by chain. For assets on Ethereum, BSC, and Base, ApeX Omni will airdrop the tokens directly to your L1 wallet address. Again, no action is required from you.
These transfers involve smart contract unlocking and verification, so they take time. Expect the airdrop to complete within 5 to 7 business days after the closure.
Solana Tokens Need a Support Ticket
Solana tokens are the one case that requires you to do something. SOL addresses and EOA addresses use different formats, so ApeX Omni cannot airdrop these tokens to your existing wallet address automatically.
Instead, SOL chain tokens will be temporarily locked in an on-chain smart contract. To retrieve them, open a ticket in the ApeX Discord. Customer support will verify your identity, and once that is confirmed, your tokens will be airdropped through the smart contract to the SOL L1 address you provide.
Because this involves manual review and a smart contract operation, the process is expected to take 5 to 7 business days. One limit applies: any single token with a total value below 3 USDT cannot be airdropped.
Spot Commissions Will Be Merged Into Your Perp Balance
The Referral and Affiliate systems are also affected. Any Spot commissions you have not yet claimed will be transferred directly into your Perp commission balance. Nothing is lost in the move.
After the transfer, Spot commission data will be hidden from the dashboard, and Spot commission details will no longer appear in Referral and Affiliate invite links. Perp commissions continue to accrue and pay out exactly as they do today.
What to Do Next
Check whether you hold anything in your Spot account. If you do, the recommended step is to swap it into USDT before August 5, 2026 at 10:00 AM UTC and keep trading on ApeX Omni without interruption.
If you leave assets in place, they will still reach you. USDT lands in your Funding Account automatically. Ethereum, BSC, and Base tokens arrive at your L1 wallet within 5 to 7 business days. Solana tokens require a Discord ticket and identity verification before they can be sent.
Perpetuals, Protocol Vaults, and the rest of the ApeX Omni product suite are unaffected by this change and continue to operate as normal.
