Leading crypto exchange Binance has announced its support for upcoming network upgrades and hard forks for Terra (LUNA), Kadena (KDA), and Sei (SEI). The exchange aims to ensure minimal disruption for its users while these updates take place. As a result, deposits and withdrawals for these tokens will be temporarily suspended, but trading activities will not be affected.

Terra (LUNA) Upgrade Set for 4th February 2025

The Terra (LUNA) network upgrade and hard fork are scheduled to occur at block height 14,154,000, approximately on 4th February 2025, at 17:00 UK time. To facilitate this transition, Binance will suspend deposits and withdrawals for LUNA from 16:00 UK time on the same day. This update is crucial as it involves the Axelar Bridge Account, which will burn the difference between on-chain Axelar assets and those recorded on Terra.

Kadena (KDA) Hard Fork Coming on 5th February 2025

The Kadena (KDA) blockchain will undergo a hard fork at block height 5,555,698, scheduled for 5th February 2025, at 02:00 UK time. As a precaution, Binance will halt deposits and withdrawals for KDA from 01:00 UK time. This upgrade will introduce Pact 5, a new version of its smart contract language, improving system performance and enhancing error messaging to create a more user-friendly experience.

Sei (SEI) Network Upgrade on 5th February 2025
