“Coinbase's decision to delist was likely made as a precaution in anticipation of a future drop in liquidity or operational concerns around redemptions,” Clara Medalie, director of research at crypto market research firm Kaiko, told CoinDesk.
The daily trading volume for BUSD on Coinbase was only about $9 million in the last two months, while the market depth within 2% of the market price was just $600,000, according to data from Kaiko, making the stablecoin’s price vulnerable to wobbles. Market depth represents the open buy and sell orders for an asset within a certain price range; the deeper the market, the more stable the price is.
“The overall liquidity is very thin,” Medalie said, “which is not great for a stablecoin that should theoretically always trade 1:1” with the U.S. dollar.

sndr_krisztian do you expect the Mcap to remain the same knowing that Paxos have stopped minting BUSD? It's expected that BUSD holder's would be converting to other stablecoin
sndr_krisztian Wow, what a huge blow to BUSD's market cap. It just goes to show how interconnected the world of cryptocurrency is, and how one decision from a major player like Coinbase can have a significant impact on the market. It will be interesting to see how Binance responds.
