Crypto exchange Poloniex announces the planned removal of nine cryptoassets (FLO, FLDC, XVC, BCY, NXC, RADS, BLK, PINK and RIC) from its platform on August 2, 2018. The exchange introduced a new asset framework after being acquired by Boston based Circle in February 2018. According to the Poloniex team, the aforementioned nine assets "either do not align with the framework and/or exhibit limited trading volume for an extended duration of time" and are the reasons for delisting.
