Upbit Resumes Trading After Delay, Plans Staged Deposit and Withdrawal Return

Upbit has restored trading in its Korean won (KRW), Bitcoin (BTC) and USDT markets after server maintenance, while the exchange prepares a separate, staged return for deposits and withdrawals. The South Korean crypto exchange shifted the planned reopening to 5 p.m. ET (22:00 UTC) after instability emerged during the trading restoration process. The schedule change followed an earlier delay to Upbit’s trading restart . Upbit plans to process deposit and withdrawal requests that accumulated during maintenance before gradually restoring those services. It plans to reopen access in stages, with some digital assets first. NFT services have a separate restart plan.
