Sophon Mainnet Shutdown: Final Countdown for User Asset Withdrawal Begins
The project team has released an official timeline for the decommissioning of the Sophon mainnet. The network will be permanently shut down on November 30, 2026. However, the critical deadline for all users is November 25th, which marks the end of the asset withdrawal period.
Action Required: Key Steps Before the Deadline
All users holding assets on the Sophon network must take immediate action to secure their funds. The required steps are straightforward:
- Withdraw All On-Chain Assets: This includes SOPH tokens, ETH, USDC, and any other supported digital assets.
- Claim Outstanding Rewards: Any unclaimed staking rewards or Guardian node incentives must be manually claimed before the cutoff.
- Check Integrated Platforms: Users with assets in associated yield platforms must also withdraw them through the respective platform interfaces before the deadline.
Critical Warnings and Security Advisory
The announcement carries a stern warning. Core infrastructure and official web services will begin winding down after November 25th. Assets remaining on the chain after this final withdrawal date face a significant risk of becoming permanently inaccessible.
The team advises users not to wait until the November 30th shutdown date to act. Proactive migration is essential. For security, users should only interact with official Sophon channels and links during this process and remain vigilant against potential phishing sites or fraudulent migration portals posing as official services.
The mainnet shutdown concludes a chapter for the Sophon ecosystem. For participants, the immediate focus must be on safely transferring all digital assets within this limited window.
