After a year and a half since a significant ₹2,000 crore hack, WazirX is launching its trading platform again. On October 24th, 2025, trading will resume with the initial phase of zero-fee trading for 30 days, simplifying the process for users to get started. This phased rollout of tokens across four days aims to stabilize and enhance liquidity.
WAZIRX will roll out tokens in phases over four days: on October 24th (Phase 1), some major tokens will be available in the USDT market; the next day, USDT/INR pair will become available. On the 26th and 27th of October, more tokens are to be added in each phase. Eventually, all tokens will become active across all markets by October 27th.
The exchange has also announced that trading for tokens will be enabled gradually over four days, with orders being placed at 10:00 AM IST and order matching starting at 5:00 PM IST. Tokens that are live will show real-time last traded prices, while those not yet active will temporarily reflect CoinMarketCap prices.
Token updates and withdrawals will resume on October 24th. Users can begin withdrawing tokens gradually based on the phased rollout. INR withdrawals are already active. The Funds page has reopened with rebalanced tokens, and both crypto and INR deposits are live.
WazirX emphasizes a cautious approach to trading during the initial days of resumption and advises users not to place large market orders right away as price volatility is expected.
The platform’s success in regaining trust was evident in the WRX token’s impressive surge following its announcement, gaining almost 32% on October 23rd. This reflects investor confidence in the platform’s return.
In a statement by WazirX co-founder Nischal Shetty, the company is focused on recovery and value creation for its users, and the zero-fee trading period might be extended depending on the community’s response. Trading is scheduled to begin tomorrow, October 24th. The exchange aims to restore full functionality in a safe and transparent manner.
