About Exchange Vault
Exchange Vault is a catalog of cryptocurrency exchanges that held customer funds and failed — cold wallets that were empty, founders who vanished, solvency that was fiction — each traced from registration to collapse with the documented losses and the regulatory record.
What you'll find here
- The platform, the operator, and the amount taken — stated up front, never buried
- A documented timeline, a three-act account, and exactly five contributing factors
- How custody was established, how it was abused, and what technical or regulatory failure enabled the exit
- Transferable lessons, and real references from court filings, regulators, and named journalism
Exchange Vault is part of Chain of Custody — a reference network on crypto custody fraud: the exchanges that drained, the yield programs that were Ponzis, the ICOs that were fiction, and the cloud mining contracts that backed nothing. Each case traced from the pitch to the exit.
