According to the Binance official announcement (Team, 2026-10-23), Binance will support cash dividends for ASML and Nokia via bStocks. For ASMLB and NOKB holders, the net dividend after deductions such as tax and fees will be reinvested as additional units or fractions of the same asset. It will not be paid in cash. This is a product-calendar self-check. It does not recommend buying or selling ASMLB or NOKB or predict their prices.
❓ 【What exactly is changing?】
1. This is based on the Binance official announcement “Binance Will Support the ASML Holding N.V. (ASML) and Nokia Corporation (NOK) Cash Dividend Distribution via bStocks” (Team, 2026-10-23; article detail b3609ecc681f4be1a56da77f5fd26c9f).
2. Eligible users: holders of ASMLB and NOKB. The net cash dividend (after deductions such as withholding tax, fees, and costs) is reinvested as additional units or fractions of the same underlying security, and eligible users receive it in the form of ASMLB or NOKB bStocks.
3. On-chain holders receive the dividend through a multiplier adjustment.
4. bStocks are tokenized securities and certificates. They do not represent direct ownership of the underlying stocks. Do not interpret “dividend” as meaning “cash deposit.”
5. The withholding tax rate and the EUR/USD dividend amounts announced by the companies are not included in this Binance announcement, so they are not stated here. If you are unsure about any figures or times, refer again to the “Binance official announcement.”
❓ 【When is the snapshot, and when will services be suspended?】
1. Eligible snapshot: 2026-10-27 00:00 UTC. In Korea and China (Asia/Shanghai, UTC+8), this is 2026-10-27 08:00.
2. Starting 2026-10-26 23:30 UTC / 2026-10-27 07:30 Korea time: 1:1 stock↔bStock conversions will be temporarily suspended, as will ASMLB and NOKB deposits and withdrawals. Binance Convert conversions involving ASMLB, NOKB, and related pairs will also stop at the same time.
3. According to the announcement, spot trading for ASMLB/USDT and NOKB/USDT is generally unaffected and will continue.
4. Suspended deposits, withdrawals, and conversions will resume once the dividend distribution is complete. The announcement does not promise a separate additional notice.
5. Dividends arising in other accounts (such as Savings or Margin) will be deposited into the Spot account.
❓ 【What is the self-check checklist?】
1. Before the snapshot, first check only your holdings and which account they are in (Spot or another account). “Buy up immediately no matter what” is not an instruction in the announcement.
2. If you need to make deposits, withdrawals, or 1:1 conversions, allow plenty of time and complete them before 2026-10-26 23:30 UTC. Deposits must be fully credited before that time.
3. Plans to convert ASMLB or NOKB using Convert will also be temporarily blocked from the same time. Check the status directly in the app or on the website.
4. According to the announcement, spot trading for ASMLB/USDT and NOKB/USDT will continue, but liquidity and quotes may vary with market conditions. This text does not recommend trading.
5. External calls on social media claiming “cash dividends confirmed” or “buy no matter what” are not in the announcement. Always defer to the Binance announcement in English.
❓ 【What misunderstandings or actions should you avoid?】
1. Be wary of summaries that exaggerate the situation by claiming “bStock dividends mean cash arrives in your wallet” or “you directly own the underlying stocks.”
2. Treat “mandatory dividend purchase,” “urgent withdrawal,” and “official mirror” links on Telegram or social media as phishing attempts.
3. Never enter your seed phrase, private key, or withdrawal verification code anywhere. Use only the official app, website, and Announcement Center.
4. Do not use APKs from unknown sources or downloads labeled “official mirror.”
5. The text does not include buy or sell recommendations or price-target predictions for ASMLB or NOKB. It is not investment advice.
