Upbit review of Blur (BLUR) investment-warning designation

South Korean exchange Upbit is reviewing its investment-warning designation for Blur (BLUR) under its delisting policy, with the review running from October 13 through the week of October 26-30, 2026. If the issues are not resolved, Upbit may end support for BLUR on the BLUR/KRW and BLUR/BTC trading pairs.

What is happening

Upbit designated Blur as an investment-warning asset and suspended BLUR deposits at 2 a.m. ET (06:00 UTC) on Tuesday, October 13. The action applies to the BLUR/KRW and BLUR/BTC pairs. Upbit warned that deposits sent after the suspension time may not be credited and cannot be recovered.

According to Upbit, Blur fell short on business substance and sustainability under the exchange's digital-asset listing review standards, creating a potential risk of harm to users. The exchange said it will examine the designation under its delisting policy during the review period, which began on October 13 and extends through the week of October 26-30.

The review is still in progress. If the reasons behind the warning are not resolved by the end of the review, Upbit may terminate support for BLUR. No final decision has been reported so far.

Why it matters

For holders on Upbit, the outcome determines whether BLUR remains tradable against the Korean won and Bitcoin on one of South Korea's major exchanges. The deposit suspension already limits the ability to move BLUR onto the platform, and the warning that mistaken deposits cannot be recovered means users should avoid sending tokens to Upbit during the review.

Traders may want to follow Upbit's official notices during the review window, as a delisting decision would affect liquidity on the BLUR/KRW and BLUR/BTC pairs. Holders who keep BLUR on the exchange may need to consider whether to withdraw or move assets if support is ended. Developments are worth watching around the end of October, when the review period closes.
