The team emphasized that if any customer fails to withdraw his/her funds within the announced period, a commission fee might be taken – if no services are being provided, there is no storing customers’ crypto for free according to the Terms of Use.

The team underlined that the exchange may resume its services in the future, provided that the situation in the crypto market changes for the better.
