Binance Pool ends on November 10, 2026, at 07:00 UTC for miners

Key takeaways

  • Binance will discontinue Binance Pool and related mining services at 07:00 UTC on the 10th of November, 2026.
  • Mining connections, Mining Pool Stratum URLs, other mining endpoints, mining pool APIs, Telegram hashrate alerts, and email notifications will stop.
  • Hashrate submissions and mining shares received after the cutoff will not be accepted, processed or credited.
  • Miners must redirect equipment to another pool before then to avoid interruption in Bitcoin mining activity.
  • Final rewards, balances, refunds and settlements remain conditional, and Binance has not quantified affected hashrate or users.

What happened

Binance has scheduled the closure of Binance Pool and associated mining services for 07:00 UTC on the 10th of November, 2026. At that time, the company will disconnect mining connections and disable Mining Pool Stratum URLs and other mining endpoints. After the cutoff, affected products will not generate new rewards, yield, or other service benefits.

The discontinuation is described as part of Binance’s ongoing review of products and services, but the announcement did not provide a more specific reason. The closure ends an operation that has run for more than six years.

The service removal is broader than the core pool. Pool Savings, Cloud Mining, and Transaction Accelerator will also end, together with mining pool APIs, Telegram hashrate alerts, and email notifications.

Market context

The operational effect is a required change of pool endpoint, not an announced shutdown of miners’ hardware. In pool mining, equipment submits work through endpoints, and accepted shares are later used in reward calculations. Once Binance’s endpoints are disabled, machines still pointed at them will no longer submit work to Binance Pool.

Binance has not named a replacement provider. Its notice also does not quantify the pool’s current mining hashrate, the number of affected users, or the volume of computing power expected to move. That leaves the scale of the migration unclear.

For Bitcoin miners, the immediate issue is avoiding downtime. Miners must redirect their equipment to another pool before 07:00 UTC on the 10th of November, 2026 to avoid an interruption in Bitcoin mining activity.

Why it matters

The deadline affects two different processes. The mining cutoff at 07:00 UTC controls whether new work can be submitted. A later account deadline at 23:59 UTC on the 10th is meant to help facilitate timely processing of eligible rewards, refunds, or settlements. That later account deadline does not extend mining access beyond 07:00 UTC.

Eligible mining shares submitted before 07:00 UTC on the 10th of November will be included in the final reward calculation under applicable Binance Pool rules. This preserves the pre-cutoff calculation process.

Binance says eligible outstanding rewards, balances, refunds, and settlements may be processed after services end. Processing remains subject to product terms, account status, risk controls, compliance checks, and applicable laws. The announcement does not establish a universal payment date or guarantee that every balance will be paid.

The closure also leaves users with a limited record window. Binance Pool pages will remain accessible for 14 days after the service cutoff, until 07:00 UTC on the 24th of November, for historical data, account records, and payout status where available.

What to watch

The practical priority is endpoint reconfiguration before 07:00 UTC on the 10th of November, 2026, and completion of any required identity verification or other account steps by 23:59 UTC on the 10th. Because Binance has not quantified affected users or hashrate, the scale of migration and the pace of final processing will remain uncertain.

The absence of a named replacement provider adds uncertainty. Any migration path beyond Binance’s own endpoints is unspecified, while final rewards for pre-cutoff shares remain governed by applicable Binance Pool rules.
