BitMart gives US users just days to pull crypto before aggressive new compliance checks risk freezing their assets

Summary

BitMart set an earlier withdrawal deadline for users covered by its U.S. rules: Aug. 8 at 23:59 UTC. This applies to people in the United States or otherwise classified as U.S. users under BitMart’s policies. Covered users should cancel orders, close positions, redeem or withdraw eligible balances, and move any remaining assets; unsupported assets may need conversion or withdrawal to another destination. After the deadline, BitMart may further restrict affected accounts and handle remaining assets under its rules and applicable law. The U.S. notice runs alongside BitMart’s broader wind-down. For the full platform, gradual limits on new registrations, deposits, positions, spot orders and automated trading began July 26, with all spot, futures and other trading ending Aug. 26 at 01:00 UTC. BitMart recommends, but does not require, all users to withdraw by Aug. 26 at 05:00 UTC. Withdrawals may face identity, source-of-funds, wallet-ownership and security checks. The exchange plans to cease platform operations on Jan. 31, 2027.
