According to the announcement from Binance, U.S. Stock Trading on Binance will be temporarily unavailable because of a scheduled system upgrade by its partner broker. During the upgrade window, users will not be able to place stock trading orders. The system upgrade is scheduled for 2026-08-22 10:50 (UTC) to 2026-08-22 15:00 (UTC). Binance said the downtime is expected to fall within that window, although it may end earlier or extend if additional work is required. The company added that the upgrade is scheduled outside of U.S. regular market trading hours. Once the system upgrade is completed, stock trading services will automatically resume. Users were advised to plan their trading activity accordingly.

According to the announcement from Binance, the temporary suspension applies only during the scheduled maintenance period, and no stock trading orders can be placed until services are restored. Binance said the timing was chosen to avoid U.S. regular market trading hours. The company noted that the upgrade may conclude before the end of the scheduled window, but it could also take longer if further work is needed. After the maintenance is finished, stock trading will resume automatically without additional action from users. Binance also reminded users to organize their trading plans around the outage period. The announcement did not specify any other changes to stock trading services beyond the temporary unavailability during the system upgrade window.
