Victoria, Seychelles, May 26, 2026, Chainwire
MEXC, a pioneer in zero-fee digital asset trading, has published its bimonthly security report for March through April, including the strategic stake of 1,000 BTC to its treasury reserves to strengthen user protection. In addition to this massive capital injection, the exchange continues to scale its compliance architecture to neutralize evolving market threats.
Intercepted 26,897 accounts related to organized risk activities
During this 60-day period, MEXC’s security infrastructure intercepted and restricted 26,897 accounts associated with coordinated fraud – an increase of 18.9% from the previous reporting cycle. Threat Intelligence engines identified 6,903 malicious syndicates (up 33.6%), with the heaviest concentrations coming from the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) and Indonesia, tracking 3,567 and 1,524 threat clusters respectively. All identified entities were subject to immediate platform-wide bans to safeguard ecosystem liquidity and protect user capital.
Deploying on-chain intelligence to immobilize compromised funds
By syndicating threat-linked wallet data with major industry partners, MEXC actively identifies and disrupts illicit capital flows associated with theft and fraud, preemptively restricting assets before secondary transfers can occur. From March to April, the platform processed 254 cross-platform intelligence requests, including 50 freeze mandates for law enforcement agencies. Through this collaborative infrastructure, the exchange has directly immobilized 17,084,031 USDT in 47 active threat cases, 23 of which were carried out through direct law enforcement intervention. All intelligence transmissions and subsequent asset freezes were carried out in strict compliance with multi-jurisdictional laws, ensuring rapid response efficiency while maintaining absolute regulatory compliance.
Misdirected Capital Recovery: 863,127 USDT recovered during 819 incidents
Between March and April, MEXC manually processed 819 erroneous deposit cases, recovering assets worth USDT863,127. Each case underwent rigorous manual review, on-chain verification, and cross-chain tracking procedures to ensure the accurate and secure reimbursement of user capital.
Guardian Fund adds 1,000 BTC reserves
MEXC’s deployment of the additional 1,000 BTC to its institutional reserves has created a formalized dual-asset architecture for the Guardian Fund. This framework uses USDT to ensure immediate operational liquidity, while the Bitcoin tranche acts as a macroeconomic anchor to preserve capital across market cycles. At the same time, MEXC has initiated a mandate to aggressively scale the fund’s total capitalization from $100 million to $500 million over the next two years. To maintain absolute transparency, all institutional wallet addresses are fully public, allowing for real-time, cryptographically verifiable proof of reserves.
Guardian Fund wallet addresses:
Major assets maintain over-collateralized reserves, with a BTC reserve ratio of 293.29%
During this reporting period, MEXC’s key reserve ratios were as follows:
- Bitcoin (BTC): reserve ratio of 293.29%, with a total portfolio asset of 11,895,453 BTC, covering user holdings of 4,055,818 BTC
- Ethereum (ETH): reserve ratio of 122.93%, with a total portfolio asset of 70,167,059 ETH
- USDT: reserve ratio of 116.92%, with total portfolio assets of USDT 2.442 billion
- USDC: reserve ratio of 120.03%, with total portfolio assets of USDC 95.7287 million
During the same period, the MEXC Futures Insurance Fund continued to operate normally, providing coverage for potential negative balance sheet losses under extreme market conditions and reducing the impact of liability spillovers on users’ assets. The fund balance remains publicly available in real time. Users can check the current balance of any trading pair on the MEXC official insurance fund page.
MEXC CEO Vugar Usi said: “Trust must be backed by verifiable capital and transparent mechanisms. The expansion of the Guardian Fund and the addition of BTC reserves mark an important step in MEXC’s continued development of its user protection infrastructure. We aim to provide users with a higher level of security assurance and asset transparency while participating in the market.”
Looking ahead, MEXC will continue to release key data through its bimonthly security reports, covering risk interception, law enforcement cooperation, user asset recovery and evidence of reserves. Through verifiable on-chain reserves, standardized risk management procedures and cross-platform collaboration, MEXC will continue to strengthen the protection of user assets.
