Looking at potential offer, says Zipmex
Singapore-based crypto exchange Zipmex said on Sunday that it is in serious discussions with potential investors who want to buy the firm, days after halting all customer withdrawals, citing market volatility and financial hardship on some partners. Zipmex said one of the interested parties has offered to initiate financial due diligence -- a common first step in mergers and acquisitions.
- Zipmex suspended all customer transactions last Wednesday, citing circumstances beyond our control.
- On Friday night in Asia, Zipmex announced that the transaction freeze on its Trade Wallet has ended, but transactions from its Z Wallet will remain disabled until further notice.
- Another victim of widespread cryptocurrency transition, Zipmex had an exposure of US$48 million with Babel and US$5 million with Celsius, the Singapore-based firm acknowledged in a statement last week.
- Zipmex's native token, ZMT, is down nearly 50% from last Wednesday to Sunday.
- It has since risen 7.2% over the past 24 hours to reach USD 0.3145 in early morning trading in Asia on Monday.
