XeggeX Crypto Exchange Scam

XeggeX was a small but fast growing crypto exchange in 2023 that was listing smaller crypto projects.

Nerva ($XNV) was listed there in December 2023. Everything was fine until February 2025 when one day, XeggeX exchange went offline and claimed that their CEO, also known as Karl was hacked. They assured users that funds were safe. A few days later they claimed issues with database but after a few weeks they re-opened the exchange. They allowed deposits and withdrawals but for bigger projects such as ETH, BTC, USDT, they issues IOUs so users could not withdraw those.

Some weeks passed and one day xeggex website went offline and disappeared. All user funds that were on the exchange were lost or rather stolen by “Karl”. Some sources say that he had gambling problem and gambled all that crypto away.

In January 2025, a year after going offline, this account started posting in XeggeX discord server and old website xeggex.com came back online.

And on February 15, 2026, old @xeggex account on X posted a message saying that they’re back and that they’re processing refunds.

Some weeks after that, XeggeX domain stopped working and it disappeared with all the user funds that were on there. The guy who run that exchange called himself Karl. It turned out that he rugged everybody, stole the funds and disappeared for a year.

Looks like Karl or whoever he is, might have run out of money. Here are recent announcements from XeggeX Discord server:

Now a new exchange called AnonEx is online, running XeggeX latest code. It’s listing coins for free, trying to get people to deposit funds and trade there. Surely it’s not the same scammers trying to rug people again.
