What the reporting agrees on

Both Blockonomi and Cointelegraph report that Binance initiated the second phase of withdrawals at 04:00 UTC on Tuesday, following an initial reopening on Sunday. They agree that the phase includes Ethereum, Solana, XRP Ledger, Tron, and Base. However, Cointelegraph emphasizes that more assets will become available as security checks are completed, while Blockonomi focuses on the reduction in net outflows from $6.1 billion on Sunday to $2.57 billion on Monday.

Binance has commenced the second phase of cryptocurrency withdrawals, allowing users to access their funds on major blockchain networks including Ethereum, Solana, XRP Ledger, Tron, and Base. This move follows an initial reopening of withdrawals on Sunday and comes after the exchange suffered a $6.3 billion security breach last week.

The phased approach to resuming withdrawals reflects Binance's commitment to ensuring security while gradually restoring normal operations. According to Blockonomi, the exchange has seen a significant decrease in net outflows, which fell to $2.57 billion on Monday from $6.1 billion on Sunday.

Cointelegraph reports that Binance continues to conduct security checks, with additional assets expected to become available for withdrawal as these checks are completed. This suggests that the exchange is taking a cautious approach to ensure the integrity of its systems and protect user assets.

The development comes amid a broader market downturn, with the total crypto market cap at $2.65 trillion and Bitcoin experiencing a 1.10% drop in the last 24 hours. The Fear & Greed Index remains at 26, indicating a state of fear among investors.

Ethereum, XRP, and Solana, all affected by the withdrawal phase, have seen mixed performance in the last 24 hours, with ETH down 0.67%, XRP up 0.61%, and SOL down 1.83%. The total value locked (TVL) in Base has increased by 0.7% over the past week, while Phase's TVL has decreased by 7.4%.

What this means in naira

At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 ETH ≈ ₦3.15M (about $2,279.18), down 0.5% over 24 hours. The naira itself trades about 2.6% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Nigerian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
