Users on Binance, OKX and 
Gate reported delays when attempting to deposit funds linked to MEXC, according to Blockonomi. The reports do not yet establish that the major exchanges have imposed a uniform block on MEXC-origin deposits, and the scope of any restrictions remains unconfirmed.
FinCEN alleges that MEXC facilitated at least $16 billion in illicit transactions between May 2021 and May 2026. The agency’s transfer restrictions reportedly take effect after a 30-day period. Blockonomi also reported that Bitget Wallet stopped accepting MEXC-origin funds for card top-ups as compliance checks tightened.
The reported disruption extends beyond the exchange named in the allegation. Delayed deposits at other centralized platforms and a pause in a related wallet service suggest that compliance controls may be affecting multiple transaction routes, although no exchange-wide block has been confirmed. The relevant entities are MEXC, Binance, OKX, Gate and Bitget Wallet.

Bitcoin was down 0.23% over 24 hours, while the Fear & Greed index stood at 28, indicating fear. Gate’s GT token traded at $9.63, up 0.41% over 24 hours and 1.14% over seven days, with a market capitalization of $1.01 billion. The next points to monitor are the confirmed scope of transfer restrictions, additional exchange responses and whether deposit delays spread beyond the platforms already reporting issues.

The chart plots GT's price: grey is the move before this brief published, the vertical dashed line marks the moment it published, the horizontal dashed line is the price then, and the coloured area is the move since — from Token Times's market data (daily resolution). It shows what happened after the news, not that the news caused it; many factors move prices. Not financial advice.
At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 GT ≈ ₹993.95 (about $9.65), down 0.4% over 24 hours. The rupee itself trades about 9.4% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Indian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
