Crypto mining pool Poolin halts BTC and ETH withdrawals due to “liquidity issues”
Cryptocurrency mining pool Poolin has announced it will halt Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH) withdrawals from its wallet service.
In the announcement, Poolin said:
“We are here to let you know the withdrawal options of Pool Account and Poolin Wallet are deactivated while setting payout wallet addresses. That is, you will only be allowed to set external wallet addresses and all the payout will be regularly made per day.”
Poolin is temporarily halting the withdrawals because of “liquidity issues” due to the recently increased withdrawals.
When will the withdrawals resume?
Poolin’s support noted in its Telegram channel that it was impossible to give the exact time when normal operations will resume through it said it might not be long. The mining pool’s help page had, however, indicated that the resumption plans would be announced in two weeks’ time.
The note on Telegram stated:
“Please be assured, all user assets are safe, and the company’s net worth is positive. We will make a snapshot of the remaining BTC and ETH balances on pool on September 6th to work out the balances. The daily mined coins after September 6th will be normally paid out per day. Other coins are not affected.”

Ethereum Network Bellatrix upgrade causes ETH price to spike
The Ethereum Bellatrix upgrade, which kicks off the final countdown for the much-anticipated Merge upgrade, is now live.
ETH price shot above $1,678 minutes after the Bellatrix upgrade was activated. At press time, ETH price had, however, dropped to $1,598.80 almost eroding the gains made after the Bellatrix upgrade.
The Bellatrix upgrade has added impetus to the recovering Ether that had previously been struggling amid strong bearish headwinds.
What is the Bellatrix upgrade?
The Merge is a two-step process and the first step is the Bellatrix upgrade that was triggered by an epoch height. The second step is the Paris upgrade that will be triggered by the targeted Terminal Total Difficulty (TTD) of 58750000000000000000000 expected to be reached between September 13th and 15th.
Bellatrix is the last upgrade on Ethereum’s Beacon Chain before the Ethereum blockchain completely shifts from proof-of-work (PoW) to proof-of-stake (Pos). The Beacon Chain went live last year.
Currently, each Ethereum node is represented on two different layers, the main chain which is a proof-of-work layer and the C layer (consensus layer). The Merge is expected to combine these two layers and transition to a PoS-based blockchain.
Bellatrix upgrade will enable validators to start producing updated Beacon Blocks, which will then contain the codebase for the merging of the two layers.

Crypto processing platform Calypso Pay adds support for Tron, Polygon And BNBChain
Calypso Pay users can now enjoy support for additional cryptocurrencies on the Tron (TRX), Polygon (MATIC) and BNBChain (BNB).
Calypso Pay, an all-in-one crypto processing & acquiring platform, announced on Tuesday, September 6th, that it has added support for new currencies on Tron, Polygon and BNBChain.
According to the company, the list of new currencies includes USDT TRC-20, USDT on Polygon, MATIC, BNB and BUSD. Thanks to this latest development, Calypso Pay users can now make and accept payments in the added cryptocurrencies.
While commenting on this latest development, Alexey Korneev, Operations Director, said;
“We at Calypso Pay work hard to provide one of the best solutions on the market for our customers. Previously Calypso Pay allowed its customers to accept payment with USDT ERC-20, BTC, ETH, USDC, and many others — today, we’re glad to announce we’re adding support for new blockchains and now enable our users to operate with USDT TRC-20, MATIC, USDT on Polygon, BNB and BUSD with more coins to follow to cover the growing demand of our users.”
Calypso Pay enables users to receive payments from their clients fast and in a secure way. With Calypso Pay, users can create invoices and/or use a payment widget to accept payments, initiate payouts for individuals or make payments to up to 1000 recipients at the same time. Furthermore, the platform allows users to manage their finances and more.
This latest development comes a few weeks after Calypso Pay partnered with WatchData, a platform that helps web3 developers seamlessly interact with the blockchain, to launch Tron Mass Payouts.
The solution enabled customers to quickly set up Tron payouts to tens of thousands of addresses while saving both time and money on fees.
The company said it plans to increase functionality for Tron in its platform in the coming months. The adoption comes at a time when the broader cryptocurrency is experiencing a bear market.
BNB, MATIC, and TRX have all lost more than 50% of their values over the past few months.
