Tether-backed Orionx announces permanent shutdown; audit uncovers a shortfall of over $7 million in custodial assets.
2 hours ago
Chilean crypto exchange Orionx, backed by Tether, announced it is initiating permanent closure procedures. A forensic audit previously uncovered that over $7 million in customer custodial assets were transferred to wallets not managed by the platform. Withdrawals are currently suspended, and the company stated its sole priority is to return customer assets as much as possible. The audit revealed that Orionx’s system-recorded balances of BTC, ETH, XRP, and POL exceeded the actual holdings in its custodial addresses. The firm has filed criminal complaints against two co-founders and former executives, Roberto Zibert and Joaquín Díaz, alleging the relevant assets were transferred between 2018 and 2021. The two denied the allegations, claiming they never harmed customer interests, and the cause of the asset shortfall remains unclear. Tether exclusively led Orionx’s Series A funding round in June 2025, approximately 15 months prior to the closure announcement. As of press time, Tether and Orionx had not responded to requests for comment.
