THORChain has resumed swaps across 11 blockchains following version 3.21.1, but Solana, BNB Chain and Cosmos remain halted. BNB (BNB) is trading at $717.59, up 0.5% since this brief published. This is an original TLT brief based on reporting by Cryptopolitan, with live market data added, as of Wed, 04 Nov 2026 21:15:03 UTC.

Why it matters

The partial restoration returns cross-chain swap functionality for most supported networks, while continued suspensions leave users of three major chains with limited access until the remaining upgrades are completed.

Key takeaways
  • THORChain resumed swaps across 11 blockchains after its 3.21.1 update
  • Solana, BNB Chain and Cosmos remain halted
  • Eight THORChain nodes still require the upgrade
  • Bitcoin rose 3.05% over 24 hours amid a broadly higher market

  1. THORChain Resumes Swaps on Major Chains After Security Pause
  2. THORChain restores swaps on 11 chains while three networks remain suspended — this brief

THORChain has reopened swaps across 11 blockchains following the release of its 3.21.1 update. The renewed service covers most of the network’s supported chains, although trading involving Solana, BNB Chain and Cosmos has not resumed, according to Cryptopolitan. The remaining disruption is tied to an incomplete node rollout: eight nodes still need to upgrade before the associated networks can return to normal operation. The available report does not provide a timetable for those changes or specify when swaps on the three suspended chains will reopen.

This creates a divided operating environment for THORChain users. Eleven chains can again be used for swaps, while three remain outside the restored service. Solana and BNB Chain are both affected, limiting the chain combinations available to users during the partial recovery. The report comes from Cryptopolitan, with no independent outlet coverage supplied to corroborate its operational details.

Live market data show a broadly positive but selective backdrop. Total crypto market capitalization stands at $2.74 trillion, while Bitcoin is up 3.05% over 24 hours. The Fear & Greed index is at 34, indicating a market sentiment classified as Fear. BNB trades at $713.94, up 2.46% over 24 hours but down 4.90% over seven days. Solana is priced at $94.50, up 1.36% over 24 hours and down 7.38% over the week.

The next operational milestones are the completion of the eight outstanding node upgrades and the restoration of swaps on Solana, BNB Chain and Cosmos. Until then, THORChain’s reopening is substantial but incomplete, with the suspended chains remaining the clearest indicator of the network’s remaining upgrade work.

What this means in naira

At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 BNB ≈ ₦992,466.44 (about $717.59), up 2.6% over 24 hours. The naira itself trades about 2.7% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Nigerian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
