According to Foresight News , the ICON network will be permanently shut down on December 31st. At that time, the on-chain system will cease operation, leaving only a read-only archive for historical transaction queries. The deadline for token migration from ICX to SODA is also December 31st; migration will not be possible after this date. From September 30th, only one-way migration from ICX to SODA has been supported.
ICON is an L1 network launched in 2017, with its token being ICX. In 2025, the project was restructured into the cross-chain DeFi execution layer SODAX, abandoning the independent maintenance of its public chain and shifting to building cross-chain liquidity and execution infrastructure based on the Sonic network. ICX and SODA were migrated in a 1:1 ratio. This shutdown of the ICON network is the final step in the project's full migration to SODAX.
