Upbit has scheduled an end to trading support for Zilliqa (ZIL) and Sophon (SOPH) at 1 a.m. ET (0600 UTC) on Nov. 16, with withdrawals set to remain available until Dec. 16.

The cutoff covers ZIL/KRW and ZIL/BTC, along with SOPH/KRW, SOPH/BTC and SOPH/USDT. Neither notice mentions XRP or makes a broader statement about its future status on Upbit. Upbit had previously set the Zilliqa cutoff.

Upbit’s review found that the grounds for ZIL’s trading-caution designation remained unresolved. SOPH had also been designated for trading caution before the cutoff was announced.

Separately, a flaw in the Zilliqa Ledger application affected signing for legacy, non-EVM transactions. The incident involved 683,130,969.66 ZIL stolen across 66 transactions, with 51 accounts drained. Zilliqa EVM transactions were unaffected.

The notices concern trading support on Upbit; they do not announce a shutdown of either network or changes by other exchanges. Withdrawals for both assets are scheduled to end Dec. 16.
