Founded in 2013 in Hong Kong, ANXBTC was one of the world's early regulated Bitcoin exchanges. The company, ANX International, expanded its services and rebranded its trading platform to ANXPRO, offering multi-currency digital asset trading, crypto debit cards, and third-party blockchain technology solutions. At its peak, it was a prominent player in the Asian crypto market. However, starting around 2018, the exchange faced significant operational difficulties, leading to widespread user complaints about the inability to withdraw funds, and it has since become inactive as a public exchange.
