Portrades — sealed dossier

Our custody desk has logged Portrades as a flagged counterparty after pattern review. The signature aligns with multiple breach categories documented over the last 18 months.

What we know

Public-facing material from Portrades positions the platform as a regulated digital-asset venue. Cryptoslock case intake has surfaced multiple disputed transactions, account freezes, and off-platform escalation attempts.

Custody breach signatures

• Off-platform escalation by parties claiming to be ‘recovery agents’ or ‘compliance officers’.
• Account balances showing volatility inconsistent with public market behavior.
• Aggressive upselling of leveraged products to retail clients without disclosure of risk.
• Communication routed through non-corporate email domains or short-lived messaging accounts.

Custody desk recommendation

If you have an active position or unwithdrawn balance with Portrades, open a custody case before any further deposits or compliance steps requested by the broker. The earlier the case is filed, the faster the chain of custody can be locked.
