Binance Convert to undergo scheduled maintenance on Aug. 2, 2026

Fact Check
All three claimed service interruptions are confirmed by primary Binance sources. The Convert maintenance is stated as 2026-08-02 08:30 UTC+9 (~1 hour) in the official Binance Japan announcement, matching the global English announcement's 2026-08-01 23:30 UTC — the same event framed in different timezones, so 'Aug 2' holds in JST. The 'Binance Will Support BNB Smart Chain (BEP20) Network Upgrade and Hard Fork' announcement confirms BEP20 deposit/withdrawal suspension tied to wallet maintenance on July 30, 2026, and the BNB Smart Chain hard fork on Aug 25, 2026. The claim accurately summarizes these official notices.
