Following the security incident involving the Zilliqa Ledger app, we worked with major exchanges to coordinate the migration of ZIL to Zilliqa EVM. This included South Korea’s five major exchanges: Upbit, Bithumb, Coinone, Gopax and Korbit. Throughout this process, we responded to the questionnaire and subsequent follow-up questions from the Digital Asset eXchange Alliance (DAXA), the self-regulatory organisation representing these exchanges.

After several months of coordination, we are disappointed by Upbit and Bithumb’s decisions to delist ZIL. However, we appreciate that both exchanges are supporting ZIL withdrawals on Zilliqa EVM, allowing holders to move their funds without completing the migration manually.

For holders on Upbit and Bithumb, there are two withdrawal options:

- Withdraw to a self-custody wallet, such as MetaMask or Rabby. Add the Zilliqa EVM network using the official network details, then use your wallet’s Zilliqa EVM receiving address.
- Withdraw to another exchange that supports Zilliqa EVM, such as Binance or KuCoin. Check that ZIL deposits are enabled and select the correct network before transferring.

Please check each exchange’s official notices for withdrawal deadlines and instructions. Before transferring, confirm that your destination supports Zilliqa EVM and, if sending to another exchange, that ZIL deposits are enabled.

If you experience any withdrawal issues, contact the support team of the exchange you are withdrawing from.

Send a small test transfer first and confirm it has arrived before moving the rest of your ZIL balance.
