BTCCrest is pinned to our watch chart for a reason. When our cartographers traced the operation, the trail lined up with an official warning record rather than with any verifiable licence.

On 7 November 2023, the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority (UK FCA) issued a warning that BTCCrest was providing financial services or products in the UK without authorisation. You may visit: https://www.fca.org.uk/news/warnings/btccrest-https-wwwbtccrestcom

If you have funds with BTCCrest
Stop sending money immediately – especially any payment framed as a tax, unlock fee, or verification deposit. Preserve everything: transaction hashes, wallet addresses, receipts, chat logs and emails. The paper trail is what a recovery review runs on.
