TON Sets September 1 Deadline For Legacy Bridge Shutdown
The TON Foundation has confirmed that its legacy bridge will be permanently decommissioned on September 1, setting a deadline for users holding wrapped TON and related bridge assets to move back to native forms.
The shutdown affects bridge-v3.ton.org, according to TON materials. Users holding Wrapped TON as an ERC-20 token on Ethereum or BNB Chain, or j-tokens such as jUSDT on TON, need to bridge assets back before the deadline to avoid losing access.
This is a planned infrastructure transition.
It should not be described as an exploit, emergency shutdown, or security failure unless official sources say otherwise.
TL;DR
- TONโs legacy bridge will be decommissioned on September 1.
- Wrapped TON and j-token users need to bridge assets back before the deadline.
- The shutdown is planned and should not be framed as a hack.
