Luckily i took all my shit out, 2 days before the "planned maintenance", clearly something very wrong is happening at this point.
something is very wrong, yeah.
but what kind of exit scam starts with planned maintenance, then 2 days of the site being up with active markets? and some assets can still be withdrawn? ZEC withdrawals still active as of a few hours ago. i assume USDT withdrawals are active because USDT/USD is trading at 1.5 and BTC/USDT is trading at $5000.
just saw this article from last night: https://www.coindesk.com/something-strange-is-going-on-at-a-crypto-exchange-called-wex/
very strange stuff:

In a July 12 post on Facebook, Dmitry Vassiliev – who, according to Singapore records obtained by Russian news agency RBK, is listed as the owner of WEX's operator, World Exchange Services – attributed the price disparities to the actions of Dmitry Sutormin, who he described as a former WEX manager.
Vassiliev explained that Sutormin, a vice president of the Russian Association for Cryptocurrencies and Blockchain and a venture investor in Russia, had been selling a high number of "WEX codes," which could be redeemed on the exchange for cryptocurrency.

Indeed, statements from Vassiliev suggest that it's not entirely clear who is in charge of WEX at the moment.
RBK also reported that Vassiliev was planning to sell the exchange to Dmitry Khavchenko, a former volunteer fighter in the war in Ukraine and a participant of the militia forces in Crimea that supported the Russian annexation in 2014.
Khavchenko, in turn, told RBK that he was going to move WEX's office to Crimea and register the managing company in the war-torn region of Ukraine known as Donbass.
According to RBK's sources, Khavchenko and other people engaged in the conflict in Ukraine are already involved in the exchange's management, including people connected to Konstantine Malofeev, who has been cited in the press as one of the shadow sponsors of East Ukrainian militants.
WEX denied that the exchange is going to be sold on Twitter, and the exchange did not respond to questions regarding who is in charge or why, exactly, its prices shot up earlier this week.

i remember similar talk when btc-e first went down. the admins made some comments about moving the new exchange to donetsk. i think they always had some connection to pro-russian rebels in east ukraine, so this revelation is not surprising.
WEX is doing exactly what Vircurex, Crytpsy ect. did to their users.
ALL cryptos are the ultimate scam/FIAT currency. WAKE UP!
