WIKIFX REPORT: CYSEC BLACKLISTS FXWET, CRYPTOBANXATRADE, AND SKYECRYPTOFX

CryptoBanxaTrade | 2022-06-07 14:50

Abstract：The Cypriot regulator has warned against entering into transactions today, particularly involving CFDs, cryptocurrency and forex trading, via online trading platforms operated by unlicensed providers.

The Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission said before that some of these illegal brokers were just spinoffs of previously shuttered companies while others misleadingly claim affiliation with other brokers that are already regulated in Cyprus and hold its CIF License. The watchdog has blacklisted the following domains:

cryptobanxatrade.com
fxwet.com
skyecryptofx.com
capitalbasefx.com

One of the blacklisted brokers, CryptoBanxaTrade, claims to be based in New York and licensed in the UK for offering binary options, Forex and spreads. The shady website also falsely claims to be properly regulated by the US CFTC and the IFSC of Belize, as well as CySEC, which the Cypriot watchdog has just denied.

Meanwhile, Skyecryptofx touts itself as one of the largest stock exchange-listed FX & CFD brokers in the world. It further claims that it has offices in more than 10 countries including Belize, UK, Poland, Germany, Spain and France.

CySEC stresses that these firms are not licensed to operate a brokerage business in Cyprus, nor are they affiliated with a regulated entity. Additionally, it warns that if consumers lost their money on platforms that are not licensed, they are not protected under the Investor Compensation Fund (ICF). This serves to protect the claims of covered clients and provide them with compensation in case a member was unable to meet its financial obligations.

While many providers claim to be Cyprus-based, CySEC said, previously it believed such companies were based overseas and providing false addresses, adding that it would look into taking further action if companies were actually based within the country. It further explains that it is sometimes hard to find the names of the platforms operators on their websites, and that the addresses given as the company headquarters are often offshore letterbox addresses.

Under current laws, CySEC has no powers to force internet companies to refuse financial advertisements or block access to their domains. It can only ask them to take down fraudulent promotions once they have been spotted. As a result, fraudsters and promoters of high-risk schemes have been able to place advertisements claiming to be based or licensed in Cyprus.

Rupee Ends 13 Paise Up at 95.15 After RBI Holds Repo at 5.25%: The Effect of a Weak USD, Cooler Oil

The Indian rupee settled at 95.15 against the US dollar on 5 August 2026, gaining 13 paise after the Reserve Bank of India's Monetary Policy Committee voted 6-0 to keep the repo rate unchanged at 5.25 percent for the third time in a row in FY27. The rupee had opened 46 paise higher, rallied to an intraday strongest of 94.89 ahead of the policy decision, and then drifted back as RBI Governor Sanjay Malhotra noted that the currency 'has not appreciated as intended despite the high flows from foreign shores.' A weak dollar index, a sharp pullback in Brent crude from above USD 100 in July, and net FII equity inflows of Rs 2,447 crore on Tuesday combined to support the rupee. USD-INR is expected to trade in a 94.80-95.50 band in the near term.
