Incident history
2025
Around 44 million dollars was taken from an internal operational account. CoinDCX said customer funds were unaffected and covered the loss from its treasury.
Our read
Handled its 2025 incident better than WazirX handled 2024: the loss hit the company rather than customers. That distinction matters a great deal.
