The Binance Pool shutdown is scheduled for 07:00 UTC on November 10, 2026 (12:00 noon PKT), making the cutoff a same-day deadline for miners still using the platform. Binance’s October 13 notice says the shutdown covers Pool, Pool Savings, cloud mining, Transaction Accelerator, pool APIs and notifications.
The notice also says Stratum URLs and endpoints will be disabled at the cutoff. Shares submitted afterward will not be accepted, processed or counted. Shares eligible before the deadline will be included in final reward calculations under the applicable pool rules.
The schedule has two separate milestones. Service access ends at 07:00 UTC on November 10, while the account, payment and identity-action deadline runs to 23:59 UTC the same day. The later date for historical pages is November 24, so miners should not confuse record access with continued mining service.
What exactly ends at the November 10 cutoff?
The change applies to Binance’s mining-pool services, not to the Bitcoin protocol or the wider Binance exchange. It means miners should treat the listed pool infrastructure as unavailable after 07:00 UTC. Binance’s notice does not identify a hack or other security incident as the reason for the shutdown. It should not be read as an update to the exchange’s separate October withdrawal-reopening process.
What should miners do before Pool closes?
Before the cutoff, miners should redirect their machines to another pool and confirm that the new pool’s connection details are correctly configured. Users with Pool Savings should check their position, redeem where applicable and unsubscribe if required. They should also confirm that their account can receive eligible payments and complete any required identity actions by November 10 at 23:59 UTC.
When will rewards be paid, and how long can records be accessed?
Binance says unpaid rewards, balances, refunds and settlements remain subject to the relevant product rules, account status, risk controls, compliance checks and applicable laws. That means users should not treat the notice as an immediate or guaranteed payout promise. Pool pages for historical records and payout status are expected to remain available where offered until November 24 at 07:00 UTC, after which access will close. Users should save records they may need before that access window ends.
What does the latest Bitcoin-block report show?
CoinDesk’s November 9 report said Binance Pool found one Bitcoin block over the previous seven days. That was a historical snapshot from the report, not a current measurement of the Bitcoin network. A one-block count alone cannot establish the pool’s exact hashrate or predict what its mining performance would have been later.
For miners, the practical priority is the cutoff sequence: move machines before Stratum access ends, review Pool Savings and payment requirements, and preserve account and payout records. The shutdown changes where participating miners connect; it does not change Bitcoin’s underlying rules.
