Binance is going to quit offering three products, futures, options and leveraged tokens to Australian users, a report from the company website says.
Existing Australian users will have 90 days to reduce and close positions for those products, starting at 9 a.m. on Sept. 24.

And they won’t be able to manually reduce or close their positions after 11:59 p.m. on Dec. 23 this year, and all remaining open positions will be closed at that point.
