Impact analysis
The confirmed operational change is narrow: on MEXC, BABY deposits and withdrawals stop at Sep 14, 2026, 09:00 (UTC), one hour before the stated 10:00 (UTC) upgrade, and resume only once the upgrade is complete and stable. MEXC explicitly says BABY trading is unaffected, so the suspension applies to transfer rails, not to the order book as described. The source also states the upgrade will not create a hard fork, which is the only technical characterization it provides. MEXC says it will assist BABY holders with technical issues during the upgrade and that no further announcements will be made, meaning users should treat the stated resume condition rather than a follow-up notice as the signal. The announcement does not describe any change to BABY balances, trading pairs, fees, or listing status, and it does not state what users must do beyond its own suggestion to deposit tokens in advance.
What the announcement does not say
The source does not state the exact time deposits and withdrawals resume, the upgrade's technical content or outcome, whether any BABY balances or trading pairs change, or what happens to transfers initiated near the suspension window. It also does not specify which other platforms or networks are affected.
