Bancor Network temporarily closes IL Protection

Bancor Network, which claims to be “the only DeFi trading and staking protocol with Single-Sided Liquidity and 100% Impermanent Loss Protection,” has closed its Impermanent Loss Protection, citing “hostile market conditions.”

Per the official announcement, withdrawals performed during this “unstable period” would not be under the IL protection, and the users who remain to use the protocol would continue earning yields. Bancor Network stated that such users are “entitled to withdraw their fully-protected value when IL protection is reactivated.” 

Notably, the decision will not affect the trading on all liquidity pools on the network. However, Bancor is not accepting deposits at the moment to “prevent confusion via direct contract interaction where the information on paused protection is not visible.”

Bancor Network believes that this temporary measure is necessary to protect the protocol and its users. It said the move should give the protocol “some room to breathe and recover.” It also cleared any clouds around the chances of an attack by stating that all the funds on the protocol are secure.

Consequences of crypto winter

The unfavorable market conditions have affected almost every crypto company. Several crypto exchanges are in a hurry to save themselves by downsizing their workforce. While on the one hand, Gemini laid off 10% of its staff, Coinbase Global Inc has also announced the retrenchment of around 18% of its global workforce.

However, despite the ongoing meltdown, several companies have taken a positive approach to deal with it. Recently, crypto exchange Kraken announced its plans to hire over 500 new employees before the end of 2022.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.

No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.

Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.

We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.

Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.

Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.

We stand behind the value of our research. If the documented upside from our published research during your 12-month membership does not exceed three times (3X) the annual subscription cost, you can request a full refund. Historical context: In every completed market cycle since 2017, cumulative documented upside has exceeded 10X this threshold.
