TON’s legacy cross-chain bridge reaches its scheduled shutdown.
This is not a TON blockchain shutdown. Wrapped assets can remain in wallets after the bridge closes. The risk is that the official route for redeeming or moving those wrapped representations disappears.
That can create liquidity fragmentation, reliance on secondary markets and price discounts for legacy wrapped assets.
Retiring old bridge infrastructure can reduce long-term attack surface, but the shutdown creates migration and phishing risk for users who miss the official process.
Evidence Status
Confirmed: bridge closure warning and migration instruction.
Not established: TON base-layer failure or a new exploit causing the shutdown.
Risk Assessment
High for users still relying on the legacy bridge.
What to Watch Next
Alternative redemption, stranded balances, wrapped-asset liquidity and phishing.
FAQ
Is TON shutting down?

Will wrapped tokens disappear?
