WEMIX trading support will end on Korean crypto exchanges including Bithumb and Coinone by June 2, 2025, as announced by the Digital Asset eXchange Alliance (DAXA) due to unresolved security issues.
The suspension underscores ongoing debates about security in digital asset trading, leading to potential market volatility and legal challenges by Wemade as they seek to overturn the decision.
WEMIX Faces Second Removal from Korean Exchanges
WEMIX trading support on prominent Korean exchanges will cease following DAXA’s May 2 announcement. The decision stems from inadequate issues resolution by Wemade, the company behind WEMIX. Chang Hyun-guk, CEO, Wemade, said, “Immediately after the announcement of trading support termination, we filed for an injunction to suspend the effectiveness of the termination decision as stated in our official press briefing and video statement.”
Involved parties include Wemade and DAXA, a consortium of significant Korean exchanges. WEMIX had previously faced delisting due to transparency concerns but was later reinstated. This marks its second removal following DAXA’s assessment.
DeFi Liquidity at Risk as Suspension Looms
The suspension directly impacts WEMIX tokens, potentially affecting DeFi protocols reliant on these tokens for liquidity. Market reactions have been mixed, with some expressing concerns about the long-term viability of WEMIX trading.
Institutional involvement remains unchanged, though regulatory scrutiny might increase. Historical trends suggest a decline in liquidity following such decisions. The outcome may prompt changes in how exchanges evaluate digital asset security and risk.
Parallels with 2022 Delisting Events Highlighted
WEMIX’s situation is reminiscent of previous delisting events in 2022, when discrepancies led to its temporary removal. Many stakeholders are comparing DAXA’s actions to prior industry incidents that impacted digital asset trust and transparency.
Experts from Kanalcoin believe the suspension could lead to legal precedents affecting future digital asset trading. Historical data indicates potential shifts in governance mechanisms tied to WEMIX, especially affecting DeFi and GameFi applications.
