CUSTODY ALERTHIGH RISKSEALED DOSSIER
Trade Wise — sealed dossier
Trade Wise is sealed in our broker watchlist with a high-risk classification. Cryptoslock recommends halting all deposits and beginning custody-recovery procedures.
What we know
Trade Wise markets itself as a trading platform offering competitive spreads and retail access to digital assets. The custody desk has triaged complaints alleging a pattern of withdrawal stalls and unverified compliance escalation.
Custody breach signatures
- Requests for additional deposits framed as ‘release fees’ or ‘tax clearance’.
- Withdrawal requests delayed, denied, or routed through unverified compliance steps.
- Inbound contact from third parties referencing your account without your initial consent.
- Lack of verifiable counterparty registration in the jurisdiction the broker claims to operate from.
Custody desk recommendation
Anyone with funds deposited to Trade Wise should file a custody breach intake without delay. Our analysts coordinate exchange outreach and counterparty research from the moment your case is acknowledged.
