Binance has issued an update on its security incident recovery, announcing that Phase 1 withdrawal services will resume from 14:00 to 17:00 Beijing Time (06:00 to 09:00 UTC) on November 1. The first batch of supported networks and assets include BTC, ETH, BNB, TRX, SOL, XRP, ZEC, DOGE, TON, POL, AVAX, ARB, BASE, OP, and SUI. Deposit services remain fully open and unaffected by the incident. The exchange noted that withdrawal resumption will be phased, with specific assets and networks prioritized based on user demand data from the past week, and will be gradually rolled out after completing security and stability checks.
