There Might be Disruptions Next Week

Binance, the biggest cryptocurrency exchange globally, is planning a system upgrade from April 23 to April 24. During this time, they aim to enhance the platform’s overall performance and stability. Users might experience some disruptions while accessing the website or mobile app during the improvement process.

“Affected functions encompass, yet aren’t confined to, signing up new users, logging in existing users, and trading operations, among others.”

Despite this, Binance reassured that all funds are safe during the upgrade. They further mentioned that services would be restored upon completion of the process.

It is also important to note that the exchange has stated there will be no further announcements on the above. This means that whatever users come across on the Internet should be taken with a grain of salt.
