Binance Supports THORChain Network Update and Hard Fork

Binance has confirmed its backing for THORChain’s critical network upgrade and hard fork, scheduled for May 1, 2025. The exchange aims to minimize disruptions for RUNE investors during the transition.

Deposits and withdrawals via the THORChain network will be temporarily halted starting 17:00 local time on May 1. Trading of RUNE tokens, however, will continue unaffected. The suspension coincides with the hard fork at block height 20,940,000.

Binance’s proactive measures reflect the growing institutional maturity in handling blockchain upgrades. The exchange advises users to complete pending transactions before the cutoff to avoid complications.
