Benzinga - The AAX cryptocurrency exchange, which recently halted withdrawals, has seemingly scrubbed its social media accounts amid the FTX (CRYPTO: FTT) contagion spread.
What Happened: AAX's YouTube channel has been deleted abruptly, leaving the users perplexed. It appears that the Facebook (NASDAQ:META) account of AAX has been deleted as well.
Cryptocurrency natives have warned users to not deposit any funds into the exchange. “AAX has liquidated trader futures positions, withdrawals have been halted for two weeks, delete their YouTube channel, executives flying.
