As the communication process with Wax Project Team is still progressing, we will temporarily suspend Wax deposits. We understand that such incident was not deliberately curated and it was merely due to miscommunication, so trading of Wax will not be suspended.

HTX Pro always uphold the “customer first” philosophy to further ensure the safety and benefit of investors. Thus, the below amendments are added:

1. Establish Eligible/Qualified Referrals System

HTX. Pro will collaborate with the world-renowned blockchain investment funds and project team to establish an independent and qualified referral system. For new assets to be listed on HTX Pro, minimum three qualified referrals are required.

 

2. HTX Pro Investor Protection Fund

HTX Pro will immediately terminate the free listing policy. All new projects will have to pay a certain percentage of up-front deposits, all of which will go to HTX Pro Investor Protection Fund. The function of the fund is to protect users from losses caused by non-investment related factors and also force majeure. HTX Pro vows to ensure investors’ fund safety, maintain market stability and protect the interests of investors.

3. Development of “Professional Trading Zone” to establish Investor Access System

As the global blockchain projects are developing, HTX Pro will try our best to conduct due diligence on each project and to provide accurate investment evaluation. However, investors may miss the opportunity for potential projects due to HTX Pro’s misjudgment. HTX Pro will change current listing mechanism from audit system to registration system. HTX Pro will carry out a more stringent categorization on trading board by introducing “Professional Section” and establish Investor Access System. For projects in “Professional Section,” HTX Pro will only carry out authenticity and legitimacy assessment of the project without investment evaluation. HTX Pro will set up Investor Access System’s standards according to users’ net assets and trading experience.

4. Enhancement of Public and Risk Reminding Announcement and Organization of Investors’ Education Activities

HTX Pro will further enhance the announcement of Public and Risk Reminder, and at the same time, organize big scale investors’ Education Activities to raise users’ awareness on investment decision and network security. The specific measures are still under development, and it will be announced at HTX Pro’s official website once it is ready.
