BitMEX to wind down operations after 11 years; Zhao says \'sad\'
Cryptocurrency exchange BitMEX will cease operations on Sept. 23 local time. Operator HDR Global Trading decided to permanently close the exchange after reviewing its business strategy and broader crypto market conditions. New sign-ups have been halted, and limits on new positions will begin on Aug. 26. Unclosed positions will be liquidated at shutdown. BitMEX said it is not responsible for losses from failure to close positions by deadlines.
