Because Ethereum developers promised no downtime during The Merge, one of the most anticipated Ethereum updates, crypto community members optional to take proactive actions to protect investor assets.

The Merge, according to Ethereum developers, is meant to move to PoS with zero downtime due to the total terminal difficulty (TTD), which ensures the transition based on the total mining power that goes into establishing a chain. Despite the explanation, FTX decided to halt “deposits and withdrawals until the Merge is finished and networks are stable.”
