Shuttered bitcoin exchange BTC-e respawns as Singapore registered WEX

BTCe relaunches already as WEX

The bitcoin and cryptocurrency trading exchange BTC-e has been in limbo ever since its domain got seized with one operator arrested back in July. FinCEN fined BTC-e $110 million for various infractions and Russian national Alexander Vinnik, one of the administrators of BTC-e was arrested in Greece with FinCEN further imposing a $12 million penalty against him for his role in the firm.

BTC-e since released a statement saying that Alexander Vinnik is not their founder, nor their CEO. Regardless of what really is going on behind the scenes, the exchange has returned in the last week as a Singapore based entity making a point to advertise strict adherence to KYC/AML laws with USA users not accepted, which was cited, among many others, as one of BTC-e’s violations.

The new WEX operation is registered as World Exchange Services Pte. Ltd. in Singapore with the domain wex.nz. To note, the .nz domain is intended for entities connected with New Zealand, WEX is not based in New Zealand, but possibly in the future, this is the plan.

WEX opened their new website with an announcement which can be read below (unedited):

WEX. Rising.
