Binance will suspend VET network deposits and withdrawals on September 16, 2026 to support Vechain's network upgrade and hard fork.
Tech & Launches ·
Binance will temporarily suspend deposits and withdrawals for VeChain (VET) tokens beginning around September 16, 2026 at 10:15 UTC to accommodate the network's scheduled upgrade and hard fork. The exchange announced the suspension to ensure service continuity during the protocol transition.
The pause affects only VET network transactions on Binance's platform during the upgrade window. Hard forks represent significant protocol changes that typically require infrastructure providers to halt operations temporarily while nodes update to new software versions. This type of coordinated suspension is standard practice across major exchanges when supporting blockchain network upgrades.
Full details are available via Binance's announcement. The timeline and duration of the suspension remain tied to VeChain's upgrade completion. It remains unclear whether other major exchanges will implement similar windows or what specific improvements the hard fork introduces to the VeChain network.
