Crypto exchanges selling tokens during active migrations without disclosing material terms
Kraken continued selling a digital asset to new buyers during an active token migration without disclosing the migration or its terms, including a 90/10 allocation model that significantly reduced what buyers received. Migration notices went only to existing holders, leaving new purchasers materially disadvantaged by information asymmetry the exchange held internally.

Similar Problems
surfaced semanticallyCryptocurrency exchange Kraken provides confusing or absent disclosures
A Kraken customer filed a complaint about confusing or missing disclosures on the platform. The brief description lacks detail about the specific disclosure failure but reflects a broader concern about crypto exchange transparency obligations.
Crypto Exchanges Force-Liquidate Delisted Assets at Distressed Prices
When exchanges delist tokens, investors receive only cursory notice and a narrow withdrawal window that offers no viable sell venue, resulting in forced conversion at near-zero prices. Holders of illiquid assets have no meaningful way to protect capital during delisting. This structural flaw costs investors thousands and exposes exchanges to regulatory and civil liability.
Crypto Exchange Accounts Frozen With No Support or Resolution Path
Cryptocurrency exchanges are restricting user accounts and blocking access to funds without explanation, while providing no phone support and only templated email responses. Affected users cannot retrieve their digital assets or understand the basis for the restriction. The absence of regulated dispute resolution processes for crypto custody creates acute and lasting financial harm.
Crypto Exchanges Provide No Protection Against Sophisticated Domain-Spoofing Phishing
Attackers use convincing lookalike domains that pass users' basic verification checks to steal crypto credentials, resulting in total account losses. Exchanges provide no behavioral anomaly detection or transaction confirmation delays that could interrupt fraudulent withdrawals. Victims have no insurance or recovery path once funds are moved.
Crypto Exchange Failed to Freeze Account During Active 2FA Bypass Attack
A Kraken user's account was compromised via a 2FA bypass and the user contacted support in real time to request an account lock, but Kraken failed to act and unauthorized withdrawals were processed. This exposes a critical gap in real-time incident response capabilities at crypto exchanges. The problem is high-urgency and recurrent across the industry.
