<h2>AAX Suspended Withdrawals to Prevent Fraud</h2>
The company stated that withdrawals are banned to prevent <a href="https://www.cryptoknowmics.com/news/cftc-strikes-order-against-fraudulent-cryptocurrency-arbitrage-company">fraud</a> and <a href="https://www.cryptoknowmics.com/news/moola-market-loses-over-10m-in-market-manipulation-attack">manipulation</a>. In order to assure the highest accuracy, AAX will keep making every effort to restore daily operation for all users within 7–10 days.

The business said that once a collaborator failed and the system recorded anomalous data, users' balances had to be manually restored. Ben Caselin, vice president, posted a tweet that the postponement was being implemented as a precaution after planned maintenance.

<h2>No Financial Connections With FTX</h2>
The business, which used matching technology developed by the London Stock Exchange Group when it originally debuted in 2019 as an external user, declared on Friday that it had no financial connections to FTX or its subsidiaries and that the FTX demise has had no bearing on the AAX business. According to the company, a significant amount of its assets are maintained in cold wallets, and user money is not lent out for business ventures.
