A temporary deposit and withdrawal suspension notice is an operational update indicating that deposits and withdrawals on the affected network will be briefly paused during a network upgrade. Binance announced that it will support the IoTeX (IOTX) and Filecoin (FIL) network upgrades and hard forks around 2026-10-19 (UTC), and that deposits and withdrawals on those networks will be temporarily suspended. Spot trading may remain available. A temporary suspension does not mean your assets are gone. Don’t assume an exact resumption time down to the minute; check Binance Wallet status and official announcements.

## How should I read announcements about temporarily suspending deposits and withdrawals?

First, distinguish “what is being paused” from “what remains available.” Network upgrade and hard fork support announcements usually state that deposits and withdrawals (the transfer rails) for the relevant chain will be temporarily suspended from a specified time, while spot trading may remain unaffected during the same period. For IOTX, the guidance was to suspend deposits and withdrawals around 2026-10-19 01:00 (UTC), with the upgrade at approximately block height 53,533,081 (around 02:00 UTC). For FIL, the guidance was to suspend them around 11:59 (UTC), with the upgrade at approximately block height 6,470,279 (around 12:59 UTC). Times and block heights may change depending on the announcement and network conditions, so refer to Binance’s English announcement and wallet screen for the latest information. Don’t assume that “trading is available” means “withdrawals are available.”

## When will services resume?

In the context of these announcements, deposits and withdrawals for the relevant network are reopened once the network is considered stable after the upgrade; a separate resumption announcement may not be issued. So don’t assume that they will definitely resume at an exact time. Check whether (1) an official announcement or support document says services have resumed, (2) the deposit/withdrawal buttons or status for the relevant coin and network are available in the app or web wallet, and (3) deposit address generation and withdrawal requests are actually being accepted. Don’t act based solely on third-party claims such as “It just resumed” or “Send it right now.”

## What should I check first if a deposit hasn’t arrived?

Deposits may take longer to appear or may show as pending immediately after an upgrade or resumption. Before assuming your assets are lost, follow these steps: (1) save the TxID (transaction hash) from the sending side; (2) check whether the transaction succeeded and how many confirmations it has on the relevant chain explorer; (3) verify that the deposit address, network, and Memo/Tag match what is shown in the announcement and wallet; and (4) check your Binance deposit history and wallet status message. If there aren’t enough confirmations or the network is still unstable, the deposit may take longer to appear. Reject fake links or DMs offering “customer support recovery” or “urgent deposit recovery.” Never enter your seed phrase, password, or verification code on links outside official channels.

## How should I check withdrawals and transfers?

It’s safer to make a small test transfer before and shortly after services resume. Before withdrawing, check the network name, address format, Memo/Tag, fees, any pending status message, and security verification requirements. Transfers made during the upgrade window may be processed differently by the receiving service, so check the TxID, confirmation count, and status on both sides; don’t assume that funds are “definitely lost.” This guide is about reading announcements and performing your own checks; it does not recommend trading or timing the market.

## Why are fake customer support and recovery links dangerous?

When a temporary suspension of deposits and withdrawals is announced, impersonation scams claiming to offer “help with uncredited deposits” or “wallet recovery” often increase. Stop immediately if anyone asks for your seed phrase, funds password, or verification code. Check only through the Binance app or web wallet while logged in, or through official announcements. A temporary suspension does not mean your assets are gone, and giving a recovery service access to your account could lead to actual losses.

## Frequently asked questions

**Q. Does an announcement about temporarily suspending deposits and withdrawals mean my assets have disappeared?**

A. No. It is often an operational notice that deposits and withdrawals on the relevant network are temporarily paused. Refer to your Binance wallet balance and official announcements for the latest information.

**Q. When will services resume?**

A. They resume once the network is stable after the upgrade, and a separate announcement may not be issued. Instead of trying to predict the exact minute, check the wallet status and official announcements.

**Q. If my deposit hasn’t arrived, is checking the TxID and confirmation count enough?**

A. Check the TxID, confirmation count, address, network, Memo, and Binance deposit history together. Reject fake recovery links.

**Q. If spot trading is available, can I withdraw too?**

A. No. An announcement may state that trading will continue while deposits and withdrawals are suspended. Check the deposit and withdrawal status in your wallet separately to confirm whether transfers are available.

**Q. Are the FIL and IOTX times confirmed?**

A. Treat the approximate 2026-10-19 UTC window and block heights shown on mirrors such as Tokenearly as a reference, but refer to Binance’s English announcement and wallet screen for the latest information.
