Bitget Opens Withdrawals for SIGN on Base Network
Bitget states that SIGN withdrawals on the Base network have resumed after a suspension for wallet maintenance that began on 2026-05-31 17:56 (UTC+8).
Fact Check
Bitget has a documented recurring pattern of suspending and resuming SIGN withdrawals on the Base network for wallet maintenance, evidenced by support articles at bitget.com/support/articles/12560603882774 (suspension on 2026-04-16/17), /12560603882807 (resumption on 2026-04-19), and /12560603859429 (resumption on 2026-02-28). However, I could not locate the specific Bitget support article corresponding to a suspension starting 2026-05-31 17:56 (UTC+8) or its resumption. The claim is consistent with Bitget's standard announcement template, but without the exact primary source confirming the 2026-05-31 instance, the evidence is insufficient to verify it directly.
Summary
Bitget said withdrawal service for SIGN on the Base network has resumed after an earlier suspension that began on 2026-05-31 17:56 (UTC+8) for wallet maintenance. The exchange had previously said the reopening date would be announced separately, and the latest notice confirms withdrawals are now available again. Bitget apologized for the disruption, thanked users for their understanding and support, and did not mention any changes to deposits or trading for SIGN.
