TON bridge-v3 cross-chain bridge will permanently close on September 1, requiring users to complete asset recovery in advance
Toncoin officially announced its cross-chain bridge and Token Bridge (bridge-v3.ton.org) will permanently close on September 1, 2026. During the transition period before the closure, all proportional cross-chain fees have been waived. The official reminds users who have used the bridge to promptly check their wallets and withdraw any unprocessed or unrecovered assets before the deadline. After September 1, 2026, the cross-chain bridge will stop all transfer functions.Users holding Wrapped TON on Ethereum or BNB Smart Chain should bridge it back to the TON network via bridge-v3.ton.org before the deadline. Those holding j-tokens such as jUSDT, jUSDC, jDAI, and jWBTC need to bridge them back to the Ethereum network.All submitted transfers have been processed. For transfers that have been executed but not yet claimed, the on-chain fees have been covered and settled by the system. Starting from June 2026, the bridge oracles will exit staking but will continue operating until the final closure. Users must complete all asset migration before the deadline to avoid assets becoming unable to be cross-chain operated.
