On May 7, 2025, Binance will temporarily suspend deposits and withdrawals of Ethereum (ETH) 
$2,433 and its associated side networks. This suspension is intended to support a critical network update and hard fork scheduled to begin around 13:05 local time. Binance aims to protect its users with this pause in operations. A subsequent announcement confirmed updates and hard forks for the Optimism (OP) and Metal DAO (MTL) networks on May 9.
Suspension of Deposits and Withdrawals
On May 7, Binance will temporarily halt deposit and withdrawal operations for networks including Ethereum, Arbitrum (ARB), Optimism (OP), zkSync Era (ZKSYNC), Base (BASE), Manta Network (MANTA), Starknet (STRK), Polygon (POL), Metis (METIS), Scroll (SCR), Cyber (CYBER), Metal DAO, Celo (CELO), and Worldcoin (WLD). Users will not be able to conduct deposit or withdrawal transactions on these networks during this period. This measure is scheduled to ensure the smooth progression of the planned hard fork.
The suspension affects only fund transfers. Trading activities for ETH and other relevant altcoins will not experience any interruptions. Once the networks stabilize post-update, Binance will automatically reinstate deposit and withdrawal functionalities without further announcements. Users can monitor the resumption through Binance’s system status screen.
On May 9, a second update is planned for the Optimism and Metal DAO networks. The update for OP and MTL is expected to commence at 19:00 local time. Prior to this, deposits and withdrawals for these two networks will be temporarily paused starting from 18:00 on the same day. Following the update completion, deposit and withdrawal functionalities will resume automatically without additional announcements.
