[//]:content-type-MARKDOWN-DONOT-DELETE We have been notified by the Ref Finance (REF) project that the Ref Finance (REF) token will be migrated to Rhea Finance (RHEA), a new token. Please note that Gate will not provide the auto-conversion service; you need to complete the conversion through the channel designated by the project. The project has not yet released detailed conversion rules and procedures—please continue to follow the project's official announcements for the accurate conversion method and related information. We apologize for being unable to provide a convenient conversion service in this case. Due to the special nature of the conversion, we strongly recommend that you act quickly: withdraw your REF tokens to a personal wallet and complete the conversion via the project's designated channel before the deadline specified by the project to avoid any potential loss. **Gate will take the following steps to delist the token :** 1. Gate has suspended the deposit service of REF. 2. Gate will delist REF trading services at 3:00 (UTC) on July 18, 2025, including the REF/USDT spot trading pair and Grid Trading. 3. If you have active quantitative trading strategies, please adjust them in advance. Otherwise, they will be forcibly stopped before 3:00 (UTC) on July 18, 2025. 4. After the REF markets are taken offline, if holders do not want to participate in the buyback, please make sure to withdraw your tokens promptly and complete the conversion through the project's designated channel to avoid losses. 5. Holders of REF stored on Gate from August 1, 2025 onward may submit a form to apply for a buyback.
