Users across Binance, OKX and 
Gate reported delays affecting deposits linked to MEXC following U.S. Treasury action, according to Blockonomi. The accounts described frozen or delayed transfers rather than a confirmed, industry-wide suspension, and no broad exchange block had been verified at the time of the report.
Blockonomi also reported that Bitget Wallet stopped accepting funds originating from MEXC for card top-ups as part of tighter compliance checks. FinCEN alleges that MEXC facilitated at least $16 billion in illicit transactions between May 2021 and May 2026, with transfer restrictions set to take effect after 30 days.
The distinction between reported user-level delays and a formal platform-wide freeze remains important. The available reporting concerns deposits sent through MEXC and their reception on other major exchanges, while Bitget Wallet’s response specifically involved card funding rather than the full range of exchange services.
Market conditions were subdued as the reports circulated. Total crypto market capitalization stood at $2.61 trillion, with the broader market described as flat.
