Bithumb, a prominent cryptocurrency exchange, has announced a temporary suspension of deposits and withdrawals for Aptos (APT). This measure is in response to a scheduled Aptos network upgrade slated for July 23rd at 18:00 (Korean Standard Time). The exchange stated that the suspension is a precautionary measure to ensure the safety and stability of user funds during the upgrade process. Bithumb aims to prevent any potential issues that might arise during the network transition. While specific details of the Aptos network upgrade haven't been explicitly stated by Bithumb, network upgrades generally involve improvements to performance, security, or functionality. Users holding APT on Bithumb will be unable to deposit or withdraw their tokens until the upgrade is complete and the exchange deems the network stable. Bithumb has not yet announced the specific time APT services will be restored. ```
