Lisk Chain Shutdown

Lisk (LSK) · Deadlines · November 2, 2026

Lisk Chain (L2) shut down at the end of November 2, 2026 (moved from Oct 31); remaining ~4M LSK staking rewards are burned, and funds left on the chain will be claimable on Ethereum from January 2027.

Lisk, the Ethereum Layer 2 network, shut down Lisk Chain at the end of November 2, 2026 (moved from October 31 so it happened on a weekday) as the company pivots into a money operations platform for finance teams and winds down the Chain and DAO. Users had to withdraw every asset held on Lisk Chain, including LSK, ETH, stablecoins, bridged tokens and DeFi positions, to Ethereum before the deadline. Staked LSK could be unlocked penalty-free (3-day wait), and the standard bridge to Ethereum takes about 8 days, so the window to start bridging closed on October 24 and withdrawals had to be claimed by the end of November 2. About 4M LSK of remaining staking rewards are burned. After the closure Lisk said it is building a dedicated smart contract so funds left on Lisk Chain can still be claimed, and withdrawals in progress at shutdown will be credited to their destination address on Ethereum; the claims process is planned for January 2027. LSK already held on Ethereum or on exchanges needs no action.
