However, the exchange lost ground last year when China forbade its people from trading cryptocurrencies. The crypto ban did, in fact, have a significant effect on Huobi's user base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The crypto ban in China had a significant impact on Huobi's user base, according to data from CryptoCompare. In just September, the amount of trade in crypto derivatives decreased by 27%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On an annual basis, it has decreased by 77%, and Binance has supplanted Huobi as the top platform for trading cryptocurrency futures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-delisting-husd-for-usdd\">Delisting HUSD for USDD?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Separately, Huobi recently disclosed that it would delist its <a href=\"https:\/\/coinscreed.com\/staging\/despite-liquidity-problems-husd-stablecoin-returns-to-1-peg.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">HUSD stablecoin<\/a>. The exchange has already begun to remove the currency from its list and to convert user HUSD into USDT at a 1:1 ratio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As stated in its formal announcement, the conversion would be finished no later than November 4, 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, Justin Sun stated that Huobi would &#8220;probably list all the cryptocurrency versus USDD&#8221; in an interview with Coindesk on October 11. Sun thinks that USDD, a Tron-based algorithmic stablecoin, is safer and more secure than UST, the unsuccessful stablecoin of the defunct Terra ecosystem.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After Justin Sun&#8217;s takeover of Huobi, a number of the company&#8217;s top executives reportedly tendered their resignations.
