OKX platform suspected of colluding with currency dealers to defraud money. On December 2nd, I used the payment method of the currency dealer in C2C to transfer Canadian dollars according to the address. The currency dealer insisted that they did not receive it and refused to make the payment. I complained to the platform, and the platform asked me to provide information. After I provided it as instructed by the platform, I have not received any response. Today, on December 14th, the platform directly canceled my order. I did not receive the purchased USDT on OKX, and my bank account has not been refunded. I complained to the customer service, but they just referred me back to the so-called specialist for investigation. I sincerely advise to be more cautious when trading on OKX. I will not use this platform anymore because the risk is too high.

Introduction: An Exchange That Has “Died Once” In previous episodes, we investigated HashKey (the compliance top student), HTX (the sanctions-hit exchange), UZX (the DAO penny-stock project), Phemex (the Morgan Stanley elite team), Tapbit (the “MSB license sticker king”), and Deepcoin (the “El Salvador new outfit”). Todays subject is probably the most dramatic one in the entire series — Coincheck. In January 2018, Coincheck suffered the largest cryptocurrency theft in history at the time: hackers stole $530 million worth of NEM tokens. For most exchanges, such a disaster would likely have ended with a shutdown or even an exit scam. But Coincheck survived. It accepted corrective measures imposed by Japan‘s Financial Services Agency (FSA), was acquired by listed company Monex Group, went public on Nasdaq in 2023, and in 2026 obtained Japan’s first stablecoin-related license. An exchange that had “died once” somehow came back as the “immortal phoenix” of Japans crypto market. However, on the other side of the story:Trustpilot rating: 1.7/5In April 2025, Coinchecks official X account was hacked, causing a platform-wide disruptionUsers complained about account freezes and withdrawal problems Why does an exchange that was acquired by a publicly listed company and listed on Nasdaq still get called a “SCAM” by some users? Today, we will break it down

After BitMart announced its orderly shutdown on July 26, an increasing number of users have reported issues in recent days, including withdrawal difficulties, delayed withdrawals, abnormal account balances, and unresponsive customer support. On July 30, affected BitMart users with significant asset exposure established a joint communication group and completed an initial registration process. According to the preliminary records, 27 users reported being unable to withdraw their funds normally, with total affected assets reaching approximately 3,704,214 USDT. The largest reported individual asset amount reached 700,000 USDT, while several other users reported account balances ranging from 100,000 USDT to 600,000 USDT. Screenshots from the original accounts of just seven users showed a combined balance of 1,692,203.67 USDT. Screenshot of BitMart Users Unable to Withdraw Funds (Source: @MINGLIbtc) Centralized exchanges (CEXs) play a critical role in custodying user assets, facilitating trades, and providing withdrawal services. However, over the past few years, the crypto industry has witnessed multiple exchange risk events. From the collapse of major exchanges to withdrawal difficulties faced by smaller platforms, ordinary users are often the ones who suffer the greatest impact in the end. When such incidents continue to occur, how can users better protect their asset rights and interests?BitMart Shutdown: $3.7 Million in User Assets

Last week, with veteran crypto exchanges BitMart and BitMEX announcing their shutdowns amid a harsh market environment, negative sentiment spread rapidly across the industry. Investors and market observers began asking one question: which exchange could be next to face a crisis? WEEX, an eight-year-old crypto exchange, has also come under the spotlight after a series of negative claims surfaced online. An industry insider who had previously warned about BitMarts potential collapse two months earlier shared a prediction on X, stating: “WEEX is going to shut down.” Some users have also filed complaints on FX110, claiming that they experienced issues such as unauthorized fund deductions, account freezes without explanation, and being asked to “delete their posts before withdrawals could be processed.” Recently, an individual claiming to be a “former BitMart employee and current WEEX employee” posted on social media, accusing the company of poor internal management and misleading employees. On one side, WEEX presents itself as a platform with strong financial backing and regulatory credibility — an official partner of LaLiga, a 1,000 BTC protection fund, and multiple regulatory registrations, creating the image of a well-funded and legitimate exchange. On the other side, there are allegations including “funds deducted without notification,” “withdrawals only approved after deleting
