CZ reassured the community that the software bug will not impact token prices, adding,

“If it moves on smaller exchanges, when Binance comes back, our deeper orderbook will bring the price back, causing those guys to lose money. Traders know this.”

As per its latest blog post, Binance has finished the system maintenance. As of writing, the exchange has re-enabled deposits, internal transfers, and order cancellation facilities.

The exchange will also resume withdrawals once it enables spot trading. However, trailing stops will remain suspended on its platform. The CEO of Binance claimed that Binance will cancel open trailing orders and notify users with outstanding trailing orders via emails and push notifications.
