OKX urges users to avoid direct MEXC transfers as it freezes deposits under tightened FinCEN-related risk controls

OKX has advised users to temporarily avoid transferring funds directly from MEXC to OKX, saying deposits linked to that platform may be frozen pending review under its compliance risk controls. The exchange said it is applying standards similar to financial sanctions in response to special measures from FinCEN, and chose to tighten controls well before the end of a 30-day transition period. The statement responded to a user complaint that USDT deposits from a personal MEXC account were frozen on the grounds of originating from a "potentially high-risk address." OKX said affected accounts may face further investigation.
