TON Foundation said its legacy cross-chain bridge will be permanently shut down on Sept. 1, setting a deadline for users holding wrapped TON and other bridged assets to move them back into native form. The shutdown affects bridge-v3.ton.org. Users with ERC-20 wrapped TON on Ethereum or BNB Chain, as well as users holding j-tokens such as jUSDT on TON, need to bridge those assets back before the cutoff or risk losing access. The foundation said the change is part of a planned infrastructure transition and should not be described as an exploit, an emergency shutdown, or a security failure.
