Dear CoinEx Community,
Today, I am announcing that CoinEx will cease operations and begin an orderly wind-down.
First, what matters most: your assets are safe. CoinEx’s reserve ratio exceeds 100%, and every user asset is fully backed and available for withdrawal. Withdrawals are open starting today and will remain open until December 22, 2026. Certain tokens may take slightly longer to process while funds are moved between cold and hot wallets, but every withdrawal request within the withdrawal period will be honored and processed.
CoinEx officially went live on December 22, 2017. Exactly nine years later, on December 22, 2026, the platform will be formally closed. Nine years is a long time in crypto. Together, we lived through multiple bull and bear cycles, witnessed the rise and fall of countless projects, and watched many of our peers leave the market in one form or another.
After much reflection, I have come to accept a hard truth. CoinEx did not become one of the industry’s leading exchanges, and the security and compliance risks of running a crypto exchange have become increasingly difficult to contain. Revenues can decline, responsibility does not. Carrying unlimited risk for limited revenue is no longer a rational choice. That said, CoinEx has survived nine years in one of the most volatile and unforgiving industries, weathered every storm, and is leaving intact, and with dignity. We may not have won the race, but we are finishing with honor.
On CET: CoinEx will buy back CET at its initial listing price of 0.005 USDT per token, with no cap on quantity. To every CET holder who has supported us over the years, thank you. CET represents your belief in CoinEx and, for many of you, your belief in me personally. I am sorry that we were not able to create the long-term value we once hoped CET would deliver. The least we can do now is bring that chapter to a responsible conclusion.
I did seriously consider selling CoinEx. Ultimately, I decided against it. Users entrusted their assets to CoinEx because they trusted the platform and, in many cases, trusted me personally. I did not feel that handing the platform and that trust to a new owner was the right way to end this journey. A clean ending is the right ending.
Nine years, millions of users. I did not turn CoinEx into the “great” exchange I once hoped it would become. But I can give it a decent ending: making sure users can withdraw their assets in full, giving my employees a dignified farewell, and providing CET holders with a clear and responsible conclusion. This is the best ending I can give CoinEx.
To everyone who traded with us, built with us, and stood by us through the hardest days of this market, thank you. It has been a privilege to walk this road with you.
To the CoinEx team, thank you for building this platform with me, for carrying it across every cycle, and now for seeing it through to the very last day.
For detailed arrangements, please refer to the official announcement: coinex.com/en/announcemen…
Thank you all for nine years of trust.

🛸Alien Base Weekly Update - August 21th 2026
🛰️ Big week for crypto with the market showing signs of life again, and we keep the pace right alongside it. Epsilon got faster, smarter execution and a round of fixes, while the migration contracts keep progressing. And in the background, we keep charting toward horizons that aren't on the usual map. Here's the breakdown:

Epsilon has been through a full security review with @hexens.
Advanced order types on Base, built to be dependable from day one.
The audit covered the order and matching layer, swap routing, and oracle price validation across Redstone and Uniswap V3 TWAP.
Full report 👇
Audit Completed: @AlienBaseDEX
We're glad to have supported Alien Base with a security review of Alienbase Epsilon, their on-chain order execution engine on Base.
Our audit covered the order and matching layer (limit, DCA, trailing-stop and stop-loss orders), the swap routing
We’ve been building this in silence for months.
Today, Alien Base becomes much more than a DEX.
We’re proud to launch Epsilon Router, an advanced meta-aggregator and orders toolkit on Base.
For the first time @base spot traders have access to Stop Losses, Trailing Stops and
UX & UI
- ⚠️ Redesigned the slippage warning as an inline banner below the order form with one-click buttons to apply the minimum or suggested slippage, replacing the old blocking popup. Applied across limit, DCA, and trailing stop.
- 🎨 Chart and form panels are now resizable. On desktop you can drag to resize the chart height and widen or narrow the swap form.
- 🍹 Upgraded the token ticker bar with a type selector (Trending, Gainers, Losers, Watchlist), arrow navigation, and click-to-select straight into the swap form.
- 🎬 Launch video finalized and ready for the Monday rollout.

🇪 Epsilon
- 🚀 Epsilon launches Monday. We are finalizing articles and marketing resources around launch.
- ✅ Reworked the token approval flow to increase the approval by the exact order amount, fixing an issue where orders could break for testers using exact approvals.
- 📊 Improved the data source behind charts and stats for more reliable trading volume and price data.
- 🔮 Tuned the oracle price tolerance and keeper timing so orders fill more reliably in volatile conditions.
- ❌ Fixed cancelling active limit orders that had already been submitted on-chain, so cancellations now trigger the proper on-chain action rather than only updating the backend.
- 📈 Fixed chart price direction when dragging to set a limit price, which was being calculated inverted and placing orders at the wrong level.
- 💼 Fixed balance and portfolio refresh so they update correctly once a swap confirms.
- 📉 Fixed a chart issue on the 5 minute timeframe where previous candles were not reloading correctly.
- 🖼️ Fixed unnecessary chart re-renders that were causing flickering and resets when the form updated.
- 🔒 Hardened the security setup around order execution
- 💬 Feedback from the public beta has helpful to address several bugs. You can still try epsilon before public launch on Monday at beta.alienbase.xyz

Mothership
- 🎛️ Strong progress with strategy optimization
