Bithumb to Temporarily Halt USDT Withdrawals on Tron Network
South Korean cryptocurrency exchange Bithumb has announced a temporary suspension of Tether (USDT) withdrawals on the Tron network. The halt is scheduled to begin at 2:00 p.m. UTC on July 18, according to an official notice from the exchange.
Bithumb did not provide a detailed explanation for the suspension in its initial announcement. However, such pauses are often related to network upgrades, wallet maintenance, or security checks. The exchange has stated that the suspension is temporary, but has not yet specified when normal service will resume. Users are advised to complete any pending USDT withdrawals on the Tron network before the cutoff time to avoid delays.
The suspension affects only USDT withdrawals on the Tron network. Other tokens and networks remain operational. Tether (USDT) is the largest stablecoin by market capitalization and is widely used for trading, remittances, and as a store of value. The Tron network is one of the most popular blockchains for USDT transfers due to its low fees and fast transaction times.
Traders who rely on USDT on the Tron network for arbitrage, liquidity, or cross-exchange transfers may need to use alternative networks such as Ethereum, Solana, or Binance Smart Chain during the suspension period. Bithumb has not indicated whether the suspension is related to any security incident, but the move is precautionary in nature.
Bithumb’s temporary suspension of USDT withdrawals on the Tron network is a routine operational measure that may cause short-term inconvenience for users. The exchange has not provided a specific timeline for resumption, but such pauses typically last from a few hours to a couple of days. Users should monitor Bithumb’s official channels for updates and plan their transactions accordingly.
