BitMart is considering a partial relaunch less than a month after announcing plans to shut down.

The crypto exchange is developing a potential restructuring plan as an alternative to a full wind-down.

The plan could combine the gradual resumption of some operations with distributions to creditors.

The proposed BitMart relaunch remains subject to legal, financial, operational and regulatory assessments.

BitMart has appointed White & Case as its restructuring counsel.

The law firm will work with the exchange’s other advisers to assess its options and develop a framework for restarting parts of the business.

The company expects to consult its community once it has developed a business resumption plan. It plans to provide another update by 9 September 2026.

BitMart announced on 26 July that it would stop accepting new users and deposits before ending all trading services on 26 August.

The platform was scheduled to cease operations completely on 31 January 2027.

The latest announcement did not clarify whether these deadlines have changed or which services could return under a BitMart relaunch.

BitMart obtained an Australian Financial Services licence in June 2026.

The exchange says it is registered as a money services business in the US and previously held virtual asset service provider registration in Lithuania.

Its separate US platform launched with regulatory approvals covering 49 states in November 2025.
