ICON will officially sunset at the end of 2026, ICX migration to SODA deadline set
Breaking: SODAX, a cross-chain liquidity layer platform, officially announced that ICON Network—a Layer 1 blockchain with nearly nine years of operation—will permanently shut down on December 31, 2026, with all assets fully migrated to SODAX. After this date, the ICON chain will be decommissioned, retaining only a read-only function for historical queries.
Per the announcement, the final deadline to migrate ICX tokens to SODA is also December 31, 2026. No further ICX migrations will be allowed past this date. Starting September 30, 2026, two-way swaps between ICX and SODA will be suspended, with only one-way migration from ICX to SODA supported afterward.
SODAX stated that as cross-chain infrastructure matures, the industry’s core bottleneck has shifted from settlement to liquidity, user experience, and execution efficiency. The project will therefore focus fully on developing SODAX’s cross-network execution and liquidity system, which currently enables transaction coordination acros

Trump Says US and Iran Close to Peace Deal, Strait of Hormuz May Reopen
May 25 — The New York Times reports that U.S. President Donald Trump announced a "basic agreement" with Iran, which could cover ending hostilities, reopening the Strait of Hormuz, and rolling back some U.S. sanctions on Tehran. But major gaps remain between the two sides on the deal’s specific terms.
Multiple Iranian officials say Tehran has agreed to a memorandum of understanding (MOU) that includes halting cross-border conflicts, restoring commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz free of tolls, the U.S. lifting its naval blockade on Iran, and unfreezing roughly $250 billion in Iranian assets held overseas.
U.S. officials highlight a key pillar of the agreement: Iran has tentatively agreed to dispose of its stockpile of highly enriched uranium, though the exact process will be worked out in future nuclear negotiations. The Iranian side added that the nuclear issue will be discussed over the next 30 to 60 days.
The report notes that since the U.S. launched strikes against Iran in

Analysis: Even with the reopening of the Suez Canal, it may take several weeks to months for the 1,500 stranded ships to fully resume passage.
The New York Times reported on May 25 that even as the U.S. and Iran edge closer to a deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, getting nearly 1,500 ships stranded in the Persian Gulf for almost three months back to sailing through the waterway will still require complex coordination. As a result, global energy shipping isn’t likely to return to normal anytime soon.
The outlet noted that once the strait is actually reopened, shipping companies will still need to work through key issues: setting ship priorities, securing passage permits, arranging routes, and addressing potential risks from naval mines. Industry insiders predict that even if a formal agreement is finalized, it could take several weeks or even months to get back to the pre-conflict average of 130 ships transiting the strait each day.
Since the Strait of Hormuz carries roughly one-fifth of the world’s oil and gas shipments, this slow recovery of logistics means international energy prices won’t drop quickly in the near term.
