Binance shuts down the deposit and withdrawal channels for CHESS, DF, and GHST, revealing new rules in the cryptocurrency market: network support is no longer a permanent privilege, but a dynamic authorization based on security and activity levels. Users need to actively transfer assets, choose efficient networks, and adapt to this "de-bubbling" evolution in the industry.

Binance suddenly announces: starting from December 12th at 16:00, the specific network deposit and withdrawal channels for Tranchess (CHESS, Ethereum), dForce (DF, BNB Smart Chain), and Aavegotchi (GHST, Polygon) will be permanently closed. This is not just a regular technical adjustment, but a precise “pruning” by leading exchanges on the network support for crypto assets—when deposits no longer credit, and assets may directly be lost, every user needs to understand the survival logic behind this “network clearance”: in the transition of the crypto market from “wild growth” to “refined operation,” “network support” is no longer a permanent privilege, but a dynamically adjusted “risk authorization.”

This action by Binance is actually a continuation of the “gatekeeper” mechanism in the crypto industry. Flipping through Binance's 2025 “Asset Support Standard White Paper,” its assessment of token networks includes three hard indicators: security audit (smart contracts have no high-risk vulnerabilities), ecological activity (daily average number of deposits, growth rate of holding addresses), and project party response speed (fault handling ≤ 24 hours). The three networks this time have all touched the “red line.”

When Binance hits the “pause button” on these three networks, what we see is not an “industry winter,” but a “rational return.” The maturity of the crypto market requires the “safety scissors” of exchanges, the “focused operation” of project parties, and, more importantly, the “active awareness” of users.
