Fact Check
I could not locate the specific Bitget announcement page confirming the exact ELA-Ethereum deposit suspension effective 2026-07-29 15:53 UTC+8. However, the surrounding context strongly supports plausibility: the official Elastos blog confirms a July 20, 2026 main-chain security incident and advises all exchanges to keep ELA deposits/withdrawals suspended. Other major exchanges have complied — MEXC posted an ELA suspension on July 24, 2026, and KuCoin suspended ELA deposits on July 14, 2026. A Bitget ELA-Ethereum suspension around July 29 fits this pattern. Absent the exact Bitget primary source, the specific date, time, and 'wallet maintenance' wording remain unverified, so the claim is treated as plausible but not fully confirmed.
