- En los últimos 30 días, Paxful Wallet permaneció en funcionamiento y se pudo acceder a todos los fondos pertenecientes a los usuarios sin problemas.
- En abril, se reveló que el mercado P2P cerraría debido a la partida de empleados clave, incertidumbres regulatorias, etc.

Paxful, a peer-to-peer (P2P) marketplace that allows people to buy, sell, and trade digital assets, has finally announced that it will restart operations after almost a month. Interestingly, the marketplace was closed in April due to the departure of key employees, regulatory uncertainties, and a recent lawsuit filed by one of the company’s co-founders. However, it seems that the platform has decided to resume operations and will gradually start to onboard users around the world.
De acuerdo a un mensaje en el sitio web oficial de Paxful, el equipo de desarrollo ahora ha lanzado el mercado después de más de 30 días de inactividad. Muchos miembros de la comunidad cripto han utilizado la plataforma para comprar y vender criptoactivos a lo largo de los años, y la plataforma también es especial para los comerciantes reguladores.
“After a month away, we’re happy to announce that the Paxful marketplace is back online. In early April, we faced a difficult decision to temporarily suspend the marketplace to protect all of our customers and Paxful’s future,” read the message on the official website.
No está claro cómo pretende avanzar el mercado P2P, pero en los últimos 30 días, Paxful Wallet permaneció en funcionamiento y se pudo acceder a todos los fondos pertenecientes a los usuarios sin problemas. Muchos clientes dijeron que sus cuentas fueron bloqueadas luego de la reciente suspensión de servicios. No está claro si el mercado ha resuelto esto.
Recientemente, el director ejecutivo de Paxful Ray Youssef reveló que 88% de los fondos congelados on the P2P marketplace have been unfrozen, with over 3% of funds remaining frozen. These 3% of the funds were “in the hands of the US regulators,” according to Youssef, who added that he doesn’t have the power to unfreeze these funds. He apologized to those whose funds remain unfrozen due to compliance issues with regulators, adding, “I have done more than anyone else would even entertain, and I cannot do anymore by law.”
The executive stated that unfreezing the 88% of frozen funds was his “final act” as the CEO of Paxful, and after achieving this goal, Youssef revealed that he was stepping down as the Chief Executive Officer of the peer-to-peer marketplace on April 18 and continuing with a new project. However, the website continues to mention Yussef as the CEO.
“Throughout the suspension, the Paxful Wallet remained fully operational for our users, and the community was also offered a selection of peer-to-peer platforms to continue trading on. Over the last month, our team has worked diligently to get the marketplace back online with the safety and security of users paramount,” said the P2P marketplace.
As reported earlier by Bitnation, Nigerians relied on Paxful’s peer-to-peer marketplace to carry out crypto transactions following a ban on crypto trading in the country. The African country was ranked 8th in crypto usage and adoption. As a result, the la gente no estaba feliz con el cierre del mercado.
Also, key court documents from March show that Youssef and co-founder Artur Schaback threw allegations at each other over misappropriation of company funds, money laundering, and evasion of US sanctions against Russia, prior to the halt of the P2P marketplace. It is also crucial to note here that Youssef is also working on Jack Dorsey’s Block’s TBD division, as the two aim to debut a new P2P marketplace.
