ME News reports that on May 23 (UTC+8), the Toncoin official team announced that its cross-chain bridge, Token Bridge (bridge-v3.ton.org), will be permanently shut down on September 1, 2026. During the transition period prior to closure, all proportional cross-chain transaction fees have been waived. The official reminds users who previously used this bridge to promptly check their wallets and withdraw any unclaimed or unrecovered assets before the deadline. After September 1, 2026, the cross-chain bridge will cease all transfer functions. Users holding Wrapped TON on Ethereum or BNB Smart Chain must rebridge their assets back to the Ton network via bridge-v3.ton.org before the deadline. Those holding j-tokens such as jUSDT, jUSDC, jDAI, or jWBTC must rebridge them back to the Ethereum network. All submitted transfers have been processed. For transactions that were executed but not yet claimed, network fees have been covered and settled by the system. Starting in June 2026, the bridge oracle will exit staking but will continue operating until final shutdown. Users must complete all asset migrations before the deadline to avoid losing the ability to perform cross-chain operations. (Source: ODAILY)

On May 23, 2026 (UTC+8), Toncoin announced that the TON Bridge-v3 cross-chain bridge (bridge-v3.ton.org) will be permanently shut down on September 1, 2026. This on-chain update affects all users holding assets on Ethereum, BNB Smart Chain, or TON. Users must transfer any unprocessed or unredeemed tokens before the deadline. Wrapped TON on Ethereum or BNB Smart Chain should be bridged back to TON, while j-tokens such as jUSDT or jUSDC should be moved to Ethereum. The system has already processed all pending transfers and covered chain fees for unclaimed transactions. The bridge oracle will cease staking in June 2026 but will remain operational until the shutdown. This change is likely part of a broader network upgrade strategy.
