Following the rumours regarding shutting down crypto accounts, AliPay has clarified that their accounts are out of all the risk and cannot be shut down. It has been stated that until and unless there is a payment page of Alipay and are not involved in any illegal activities, there will not be any kind of fund freeze for AliPay’s accounts.
