No one from the users will forgive you about this shit show.
No one.

People just lost 80% of their funds, because of your childish behavior.
People == Your customers, that pay your salary.

People dont care about what the issue is, If you have an argument , solve it like an adult.
GROW UP and solve this shit show.

-Customer Since 2011.

When you close why add a new pair? reenable the BTC withdrawal and such instead of something useless.
Or is the closing cancelled?

There are some posts related to it here in BT, reddit and chat. But yeah wex is still online ..surprise
But given the fact you hold us hostages and withdrawal of funds don't work (just NMC, PPC (broken), NVC) XMR withdrawals also reported to be broken.

So it makes just sense if you try to accumulate more money on wex that can't be withdrawn anymore. Since wex and you constantly ignore the question on when the withdrawal functions of BTC,BCH, DSH, LTC will work!
Thanks for the fish man and overprices XMR

What a bad excuse. These guys are low russian criminals. Glad I got my shit out right after they relaunched as Wex. I didn’t think they ever really intended to pay everyone back. But they made it seem like they made a good start with that token system. But after all it was just to build back some confidence, reap months of commissions and now pull an exit scam anyway.

i managed to get my $$ out in XMR.  

BTC, LTC, BCH withdrawals are disabled.  Prices are way out of whack.  Stay away from WEX.

You are both somewhat right and somewhat wrong (Yes they quote August 15th 2018, yet they didn't post this about the disabled wallets)...

More specifically, because the August 15th date had nothing to do with the disabled wallets; it was posted regarding the completion of code for the Bitcoin Cash hardfork and it was posted by WEX as an official update on May 14th 2018!

WEX posted a link regarding the hardfork on May 14th and the link led you to a publication that mentions August 15th as the expected timeline for maintenance, but it was for the Bitcoin Cash Hardfork... The Article was published on August 8th at https://www.bitcoinabc.org regarding the timeline for a code completion date; not for WEX specifically...

WEX referenced this in their Official Update notice that they posted on May 14th 2018 with regard to Bitcoin Cash; not cold or disabled wallets...

https://www.bitcoinabc.org/2018-08-08-nov-code-complete-reminder/

Hi guys,
At the very moment I am writing this, the price of BTC in USD is 8300 on your platform, while 6500 USD at Bitstamp (one of the most reliable exchanges and also one of the best rates of the markets).

Just one question: how is that possible?
Thanks in advance for replying.

hi, im new to WEX, and deposited 9.5btc, via PPC and ZEC (arbitrage purposes Poloniex <-> WEX)
reading FUD made me worry

please tell me current withdrawal situation.. are arbitrage possible?
i really wish WIX.NZ could get back to its feet

1PenekAV7bcEFXFxY68NYrTotBETdDiGk8

thank you for your reply, are you customer relation of exchange market WEX.NZ?

Are the BTC, ETH, BCH, LTC, DASH withdrawal will be back enable again?

what about monero XMR and USDT?

XMR withdrawal is enabled.

Arbitrage is not possible due to price incosistencies and inability to withdraw certain coins.

Nice try, i suspect you just cost yourself 5% of your entire transaction in fees and shitty prices on WEX. 

wex.nz, how do you choose what altcoins to list in your exchange? Do you do your own diligence and research? Are you also open to listen to suggestions from the community? Ty.

1PenekAV7bcEFXFxY68NYrTotBETdDiGk8

Can you proceed to do a full economic and developmental research on Burst? The coin has a growing community after the Proof of Capacity Consortium has taken over development and stablized the software.

I will leave this for your consideration. Ty.

Its not too young. The code was forked from NXT way back on 2014, and the original developer removed Proof of Stake and replaced it with Proof of Capacity with its own genesis block that has no premine and no ICO.

Its one of the oldest coins that has lived through its own test of time and hardships but came out stronger. It is a robust coin with a solid community.

This is an interview that will show what kind of people are supporting Burst.

Nixops Podcast interview (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wk5JTIN4t8g)

He is one of the original miners of BTC. I hope that helps in changing your mind. Ty.

Can somebody explain me why traders are still interested in Wex (btc-e) after they've proven over and over again to be quite unreliable with a high risk of a exit-scam?

Personally I really cannot understand this

wex.nz, ty for the chance. If you have more questions I can contact nixops from the Burst community. He is the same guy in the interview and the spokesperson for the project in conferences. The PoCC developers can also be contacted through Discord and email in the links provided.

SCAM site which is pretending to be exchange. Once you deposited your funds, there is no way to get them back.

I'm scared to deposit my bitcoins here. since withdraw disabled. I need convert my btc to yandex money.

Do you know an alternative website that has not been disabled to withdraw money to convert Yandex money? so I can deposit my btc safely.

1PenekAV7bcEFXFxY68NYrTotBETdDiGk8

why you not post it in twitter ?

it's too early to publish in twitter

Before 2019  ;D

1PenekAV7bcEFXFxY68NYrTotBETdDiGk8

is this guy wex offical username ?

1PenekAV7bcEFXFxY68NYrTotBETdDiGk8

@wex.nz
Why you are not announcing it on the site? Here: https://wex.nz/news - is it still official page or scam page? That's a serious question.

Soon? I here this from July and now is September. Are you try to troll me?

No explanation for lack of ability to withdraw main coins in 10 weeks, no updates on the issues/plans on official twitter channel, and nothing from  user "wex.nz" here since Monday. We deserve better than 3.8:1 loss ratio to convert and withdraw via XMR, USDT or ZEC. 

1PenekAV7bcEFXFxY68NYrTotBETdDiGk8

WEX is a SCAM

1PenekAV7bcEFXFxY68NYrTotBETdDiGk8

At least some transparency (considering it's true), but I really pity the people who chose to make deposits at Wex.
Cannot say they've not been warned before though.

1PenekAV7bcEFXFxY68NYrTotBETdDiGk8

These fraudsters will never opens withdrawals

1PenekAV7bcEFXFxY68NYrTotBETdDiGk8

There are greatest scammers of a whole blockchain history

1PenekAV7bcEFXFxY68NYrTotBETdDiGk8

WEX.nz account is sending very mixed messages. They don't seem to want to admit they're never opening withdrawal's however they're also apologizing. WEX, do you still have hope for opening withdrawals at some point in the future? Why not give every holder of closed withdrawal coins debt tokens like you did last time, or if that's not possible, why not create a new site like the migration to wex?

Offer a withdrawal at 70% loss (or whatever WEX can afford), or conversion to tokens like last time.

Good question, however on the previous page it is said that they got stolen their financial assets, the support on this page has not been very clear (and in poor English to be honest) but for me this is an indirect way to say they are technically bankrupt. Sadly. Of course I hope I am wrong regarding this situation. Good luck all.

btc withdrawal is disabled

If Wex comes back, there's only one way they can win back the trust of users.  They'll need to tell us what happened, why they were silent about it and how it they'll prevent it in the future.  Paying off the tokens would go a very long way in wining trust.  Wex is a cash cow, so I don't see then just jumping ship.

1PenekAV7bcEFXFxY68NYrTotBETdDiGk8

when do you end maintenance ? 1 year , 2 years or forever ? I wait this for long time

1PenekAV7bcEFXFxY68NYrTotBETdDiGk8

Admin, please tell me:

Who is responsible for that? Who is steals 80% money from WEX?

Why deposit BTC still work? You should not disable it?

because they're scamming. it's pretty clear at this point that wex users were robbed by the exchange owners. no legitimate wallet "maintenance" involves accepting deposits but not honoring withdrawals. and no legitimate wallet "maintenance" lasts for several months at a time.

there's no chance they can restore trust at this point, which removes any incentive they have to make good on their obligations. eventually, i think volumes will dwindle to nothing and they'll just shut down the site.

If end of this month. They do not open widthraw the coin. We should arraign them. the WEX.NZ ( BTC-E ) is big robbers.

@wez.nz please answer why BTC deposits still work? You should not disable it?

it's simple because they need more  money , they can't refund our money. they are big scammers. LOL

Now I'm having trouble withdraw NVC
Who will help me?

People don`t believe anything you say because you can`t write anything on the website`s blog and you can`t prove you're an admin. you`re probably just a fake account

Dear wex admin, I have send usdt to wex and it confirmed on network. 1 day have gone and I still dont receice txid in my wex. I contact to support but no one reply to me. Please check it for me.

Yep, Alexey Demidov (Moscow) and Alexey Vlasov (Penza) - is a famous fraudsters

The most important thing is not to panic

This thread would be hilarious if it was not about people losing their money. And then the account wex.nz replying "please do not panic". I know it's bad but it made me chuckle.
Sadly in 2018 it's just another proof of how easy it is to scam people. When I signed up at Wex.nz before there were signs already that this platform was not very professional. First, the support is very slow, or even does not bother to reply to the customers. I remember trying to upload my ID + proof of residence it was refused, and I never got reply about the reason why it was rejected (I should be glad about it today).
Second, their rates were "too good to be true".

Should be a lesson to everyone.

Other typical example of similar platform is Exmo, be very careful with them. They have one of the worst customer service I have seen. Once I logged in and waited to get into the live chat assistance, it took 2 hours to reach them, and all I got was a template answer + their rates are way too high to be legit.

Forget about your money, and take this as a lesson learned the hard way.

that's why you should always research an exchange (or any service) before trusting them with your money. that's usually how people get scammed: by not researching the businesses they deal with and not asking the hard questions.

the fact that wex is so closely associated with btc-e (seized by the USA government) should have been a red flag. their partially incomprehensible announcements and the inability of support to speak english should be another. and whenever an "arbitrage" opportunity exists, you have to stop and ask---why didn't traders take advantage of the opportunity and return prices to normal? anytime a sustained price disparity exists, there is a deeper problem going on and you need to assess the heightened risk.


interestingly, exmo (by way of domain registration) was proven to be connected to btc-e. btc-e is connected to wex. by way of the transitive property, exmo is also connected to wex. be very careful dealing with these guys.......

that's not necessarily true. this story was published 3 hours ago (https://www.coindesk.com/data-shows-millions-leaving-crypto-wallets-tied-to-long-troubled-exchange/amp/?utm_campaign=Organic%20&utm_content&utm_medium=social&utm_source=hootsuite&utm_term). according to binance, the account freeze is only temporary. without official communication from law enforcement agencies, nothing may come of it:


no matter what, i'd say chances of recovery are slim. :-\

WEX wallets on Binance are blocked exactly forever. Read chinese news

But where? in USA?

I don`t think anyone`s trusting them anymore

Yes, I see people waiting a lot of days but nothing good comes to them. People no longer trust this exchange, they just want to get their money back.

Exactly, I was hopeful and very very patient. But no, I just want my money back now

Anybody alive?

It`s sadly pretty silent here

How do you know all these?

from twitter

WTF? Where is the site now???
Is there any other link to reach there? Because people could still get part of their money by withdrawing different currencies and the site was still working. Now what're we gonna do?

Hopefully they'll be up with a new domain soon.

Does anyone know where can I report this matter to the police, or how can I contact binance about the funds?
A great deal of money is stolen.

Same here. Please help

https://www.dnc.org.nz/statement/wexnz

Well all anonymous exchanges gone. wex did it again....
there is no hope for crypto... btc dying... buuhu

guys read this post:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5073044.msg48094360#msg48094360

Now I can access wex.nz

Please use our mirror https://wex.link

Has anyone tried this and succeed? I just dont' trust anything anymore

Me too, I also can't trust anything anymore. So, it is better to copy-paste few lines in the system file.
Follow the instruction as described here (use google translator https://translate.google.com) :
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5073044.msg48094360#msg48094360

When you will done, all your bookmarks/api links will work without changing anything.

never seen you on wex, looking at chat right now, all seems new, i feel like wex can't be trusted anymore, hack rumours might be truth looks like.

I'm wondered that you never saw me at chat.  :-[
I'm there since Wex was Btc-e.
By the way, I'm not saying to trust on me or wex.
I shared a link of a senior member of BitcoinTalk, who described how to access wex.nz using the ip address of wex.

nah just seeing that you have a new account here, suspicous about everything, i havent seen kneedrag online atleast might be a sign.

I'm here since August 14, 2014.
My previous account was hacked by someone last year.
My last post of that account was on October 08, 2017.
The hacker is using my account since June 06, 2018.
My previous nick was kk777.
When I contacted Welsh, he told me to contact theymos/cyrus.
I contacted both of them, but didn't get any reply from them till now.

Btw, kneedrag last seen yesterday in Russian TB https://btceclub.ru/chatlog/?date=22-11-2018&find=kneedrag&lang=ru

i did have seen kneedrag online, both on btc-e and wex as well, almost every time every day i logged in, at least twice a week

i also lost all my funds there on wex but i was so happy when they returned from btc-e and just trusted them when that happened, now im just robbed by some russians. first by some Americans -100%, saved by some russians +100%, then robbed by some Russians -80%, and now -100% by them.

So what's the status now? Does this site exist? Is there any way to use bitcoins from the account?

after the .nz domain was taken down, they posted this from their twitter account (https://twitter.com/WEXnz/status/1065241700237484038):

the site is currently up, trollbox and everything. but it seems like their email server is down, so no one can withdraw anything---not even USDT or any of the others that were previously working.

The site is no longer working, you can no longer login, and the trollbox appears to be frozen.

Yeah, new site is down now.

wex.link is down, please PM with info of any kind, all my life savings went with that site.

That is just sad. I kept trading on this site when they changed from btc-e to wex.nz.
Will they come back again?

Try WEX.FIT

Can you login at wex.fit ? I can't login there. :(

Hope that link never turns to WEX.IT

If you haven't had enough of a clue that this is a site to forget about and move on with your life, the hosts file tweak that worked for wex.nz works for wex.link as well.  You simply use wex.link instead of wex.nz with the same instructions.   However the site will probably lose its SSL padlock soon, and 2fa, if it has no working domain name.

Don't expect much from a new mirror, it will be suspended soon. They used same registrar (PDR) as they used for wex.link, where their domain was suspended in 2 days.
PDR abuse team lock any domain even when the abuse report is fake.

We can not log in and strange thing is, there are users who are chatting. I wonder who are those logged in users. USDT is valued at 10.. This site has some serious agenda.

What good is it when no one can log in or withdraw. Its trying to evade an investigation by keeping itself upfront.
But its time is depleting.

take a patience please

Those logged in users are able to chat because their session cookies were still valid when the wex.link domain was pulled from the site.  If you already have the HOSTS file tweaks in place then your session cookie should still work, if it has not yet expired.   Eventually it will expire if WEX doesn't fix this domain situation soon.  Why not put it on an .onion address and tweet on the official WEX account...

I doubt that keeping the appearance of a running site will prevent any investigation at this point.  I suspect their actions and principal owners are well known to investigators for a long time, but it takes years and years for all the pieces of a case to come together in a solid and robust form that can't easily shot down by legal defense, particularly in a case involving the cooperation of multiple unrelated jurisdictions. Wouldn't be surprised if they bought a few investigators off (or the investigators got their fingers dirty on their own) too, Carl Mark Force IV style.  oooohhh  drama   lol. 

https://news.bitcoin.com/report-troubled-crypto-exchange-wex-finds-new-owner/

They announced on Twitter that the site is now under https://wex1.in/

But I couldn't login

https://news.bitcoin.com/report-troubled-crypto-exchange-wex-finds-new-owner/

Not sure about whether this is accurate but they are saying that WEX has been bought by Dimitri Havchenko and he has said that he intends to relocate operations to Crimea... The saga continues...

Well the source is pretty reliable so I'm hopeful

yeah this is accurate, we talked about this alot on juli before the maintaince, there were no official states that wex was sold but by the end of maintaince most of us could be sure that this was what happened.

What is the current link for wex now? I can't seem to find the site anymore

There is no link to login at wex.  :(

btw you can visit wex.link by adding these lines in "hosts" file:
104.25.30.35 wex.link
104.25.31.35 wex.link

Or you can visit wex.fit by adding these lines in "hosts" file:
104.25.63.7 wex.fit
104.25.62.7 wex.fit
2606: 4700: 20 :: 6819: 3f07 wex.fit
2606: 4700: 20 :: 6819: 3e07 wex.fit

You can find this file here: C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc
Open the file using Notepad with administration right.
But, you can't login there, cause you will get server error when you will try to login.

Sounds like they are trying (not hard enough) but I think this might be an All She Wrote situation.

well... i should have moved my money out of wex after the fail of btce... damn, i liked this exchange a lot...

lets wait and hope again...

@nak333 those host entries didn't work for me.

I had a lot of money on Wex, it's my own fault for not taking the bulk of them off after the BTC-e debacle!

Let's keep on top of it, there is still a chance we can get our funds back.

I'm sorry to know that.  :(
My funds also stuck at wex. We can only hope that wex will be back.

Have you noticed that wex.sc is working? I haven't logged in as not sure if it's fake. What do you think?

https://wex.sc/news/5

This roughly translate to:

"We sincerely apologize for such a long silence, and thank you for your patience. In view of certain circumstances, only now can we make an official statement.

The main reason for the problems that have arisen is disagreement in the top management and management of the stock exchange. In more detail, the situation will be described later. Also, the names of all the perpetrators will be made public. At the moment, all problems have been settled, the team has been updated, and we are ready to continue to work fully.

Unfortunately, we lost access to the servers, the past domain of the wex.nz exchange, and some of the data, but most importantly - control over bank accounts of fiat funds and private keys to cold wallets remained with us, which means that all your funds in complete safety.

All your funds are transferred from the old domain, trades are available, conclusions will be open in the next 2-3 weeks."

as far as I know wex.sc is fake. Be careful

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0vEnnNUapaU&feature=youtu.be
This is what wex and where all ur money goes. Cya retards who use this shit.

Very good imitation but fake indeed, anyway I think you guys learned your lesson the hard way and won't come back to this exchange.

Best one is Bitstamp, or go to Binance for more alt coins, but stay away from these fishy websites.

Wex.ink

A "few" years ago, mtGox likely would have been on that list as well...

Is there any known class action?

https://twitter.com/WexScam

I was able to log into WEX until about late November 2018, and soon thereafter there were continued changes in the WEX website location that I had found through the official Wex tweets (https://twitter.com/WEXnz?lang=en) - but those changed WEX website locations did not function for very long either (a couple days at most).  If you click above on the Official Wex tweets, the last tweet that is listed there was on December 5, 2018.

So even with losing complete access to WEX in early December 2018, there was the additional problem that most of us likely had - an inability to withdraw any funds from WEX after about July/August 2018.   Was anyone able to withdraw funds from WEX after August 2018?  If so, probably you had to convert them to specific coins that were "withdraw authorized", and how long did that last?

Furthermore, WEX's BTC prices (and other coins too) were out-of-Wack with other exchanges since at least May 2018.  I cannot recall the exact date of the out of wackness, but that out-of-wackness seemed to have been the beginning of their starting to have withdrawal problems, and likely a run on the bank type of a situation that was contributing to their exchange prices being out of wack with others.

Where are we now? Are we ever going to be able to get back any of our funds?  How does this play out?  Who has our coins?  Did the government seize the coins?  Are they in some person's hands?  Are the coins being used for legal expenses for Dmitry Havchenko or some of the other owners?  Is Dmitry Havchenko the only known WEX owner in custody?


As of mid-2018 (and surely into late 2018, since I was not able to withdraw any funds), I had a decent amount of funds on WEX too, probably more than I should have left there.  I made some additional BTC deposits after they changed from BTC-e to WEX (which might not have been a smart move), and I never did cash out or trade any of my WEX tokens (that they had rewarded in late 2017 based on the social loss calculations of the July 2017 governmental seizure of their BTC-e website) because I had some (perhaps deluded) confidence that WEX was going to redeem my tokens full value, like they had proclaimed that they would (within no later than two years). 

You seem hopeful, woocol, but I am having difficulties seeing how this ends with any kind of meaningful reimbursement for any of us for anything near the amount of value that any of us had in WEX's custody as of November/December 2018 or maybe claims to earlier losses that WEX caused upon us account holders.



It is going to be a bit difficult to know if there is some kind of official announcement from WEX, and surely none of us should be clicking on links that claim to be the new WEX, unless there is some kind of confirmed assurances that link is provided by a real and legit WEX source.

Funny also, if our most up-to-date news about the status of WEX and Dmitry Havchenko comes through WEX scam official tweets (https://twitter.com/WexScam)?  Are there better sources, perhaps?

funny enough, i think Balthazar (friend of the original btc-e admins) had a hand in this: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4838190.msg48476848#msg48476848

if true though, it just indicates more of the same---that wex made very little effort to remain a functioning exchange.


the admins for the last 6+ months (whoever they are) either lost access to most of the site's wallets or staged a very slow exit scam. i think there's actually a possibility that funds were diverted towards alexander vinnik's legal expenses and fight against extradition to the USA. their cold wallets were seen moving through binance a few months ago: https://twitter.com/cz_binance/status/1057080119385157632


it's over IMO. back in july/august, there was hope of recovery. at this point, it seems like a lot of the money is gone and trust in wex has been destroyed anyway. there's really no incentive for them to come back online. :-\

Why do you say that?

Yeah.. they seem to have done an exit scam, but surely much of this started in July 2017 when they were initially shut down. 

Difficult to say that they premeditated any scam, but may have ben cornered into scamming customers into thinking that they could continue to stay open after the original shut down.. and then moving from site to site..

I still have around BTC0.2 stuck in Wex.nz, and now I have lost hope that I'll ever get my money back. Their Twitter account is inactive for more than 4 months and they have issued no statements regarding the resumption of exchange activities.

O.k.  You are not to be taken seriously.  There is no need to speak in ALL CAPS.

Agreed. Even I have lost some money on Wex, but now I have given up pursuing them anymore. I should have moved my coins a soon as the Wex.nz website came online. Made the mistake by keeping the coins in an exchange.

Do we have news??

How can an exchange just disappear like this without causing noise..
There were 1000s of users. No coverage on crypto-media whatsoever..

their gradual downfall was recorded in the crypto media, ever since they stopped withdrawals in summer 2018.

a few examples:
https://www.coindesk.com/something-strange-is-going-on-at-a-crypto-exchange-called-wex
https://www.coindesk.com/bitcoin-price-nears-10k-on-wex-exchange-as-users-await-withdrawals
https://www.coindesk.com/wex-traders-seek-police-action-amid-frozen-funds-sky-high-crypto-prices

there was a report when their domain was taken down:
https://news.bitcoin.com/btc-e-successor-wex-loses-nz-domain/

and after that, it was pretty much over. they only attempted to bring up a few more domains which were quickly taken down. you're right there was surprisingly little coverage when the end finally came. but at the same time, the collapse seemed so inevitable and drawn out....there was barely any volume on wex when it finally went down. by the end of 2018 it was basically a forgotten exchange. same thing happened to vircurex which similarly disappeared and many others too.

Are there any news regarding WEX?

I don't expect anything special, but I wonder if there is any effect of different actions that some people were trying to take to get their money back.

Any news ? Any forum where at least the users are trying to recover stolen funds ? I'd like to be part of any such initiative, even if it has 1% chance of recovery.

There's also a group titled "Wex Money Trail" but I can't find a link right now.

Either way, the chances of getting anything back are very low, so don't get your hopes up.

What is this "Telegram"?    Can this be accessed directly from web browser?

I don't have an account, either, but I believe that if you create a Telegram account, then you will be able to view the content that is linked in malevolent's above post.  


In essence, Telegram does not appear to allow non-account holders to view the content of the posts of the groups.

You can download an app: https://telegram.org/ or you can run it in your browser: https://web.telegram.org/#/login


You need a phone number to use Telegram, that's it, you get a text with code you have to enter to authenticate. Passwords are optional.

Thanks man, appreciate your help ! Will try to look into these. Thanks again.

Is there any news?

Does news like this affect us account holders at all?

BTC-e was fined $110M by US authorities back in 2017, so that coupled with what happened with funds held at Liberty Reserve or Silk Road, I think the chances of any of the rightful owners seeing that money are very low.

Fair enough... I am loosely watching these kinds of matters with a kind of "you never know" mindset, and I even forget many of the details because it seems to be quite a bit of time between any pieces of news... and of course I wrote down recovery to somewhere close to zero for a couple of years now, if not longer.

Seems like a lot of behind the scenes injustices, and some of us (including yours truly) did probably keep more value there than was even close to reasonable given the many risks and attacks on their system... that just ended up imploding.

I did tried everything , adding host file entries to whatever but it didn't worked for me. Lost a couple of hundred dollars on wex
