Tech & Launches ·
Bithumb temporarily halted deposits and withdrawals for 28 virtual assets tied to BNB Smart Chain beginning August 25 at 9:00 AM. The suspension affected a specific set of tokens operating on the network, though the exchange did not immediately disclose the underlying reason for the action.
Temporary asset suspensions at major exchanges typically occur during network maintenance, security reviews, or technical issues affecting the blockchain or token contracts in question. The scope—28 assets from a single chain ecosystem—suggests either a systemic problem isolated to BNB Smart Chain or a coordinated action tied to those particular tokens.
It remains unclear whether the suspension was precautionary, how long it would persist, or whether other exchanges implemented similar restrictions. No statement was provided on the cause or expected resolution timeline.
