He denied allegations of misappropriating customer deposits or removing them before announcing the shutdown.<\/p>\n<p>In his defense, Xia claimed he did not abandon his duties in relation to the exchanges.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_623436\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-623436\" style=\"width: 644px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/HPM5lLsaIAAz4HA.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-623436 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/HPM5lLsaIAAz4HA.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"644\" height=\"456\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/HPM5lLsaIAAz4HA.jpg 644w, https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/HPM5lLsaIAAz4HA-300x212.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 644px) 100vw, 644px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-623436\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: X<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>He also urged users to rely on verified information posted through official channels rather than unsubstantiated claims allegedly made by either current or former employees. However, withdrawals will continue to be the most reliable indicator that these assurances are valid.<\/p>\n<p>Shortly after the 26th of July <a href=\"https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/bitmart-commences-orderly-wind-down-of-its-trading-platform-operations-details\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">announcement<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/lookonchain\/status\/2081555914218455251\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lookonchain<\/a> recorded 58 wallets withdrawing about $805,000, including an eight-hour period with no withdrawals. Meanwhile, BitMart-linked holdings fell from roughly $102 million to $69\u201371 million, though internal movements complicate that decline.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, Xia&#8217;s consideration of court involvement and independent third-party auditors becomes important. Verified asset disclosures and improving withdrawal throughput would provide stronger evidence that customer funds remain accounted for.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>BitMart withdrawal processing accelerates<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>More importantly, the acceleration in withdrawals offers evidence against the earlier stagnation that had fueled concerns around BitMart\u2019s remaining assets. <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While ETH withdrawals were limited in early August, activity surged to over 200 per hour starting on the 7th of August.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Activity then exceeded 200 transactions per hour, while several periods approached 400, with the latest pace averaging roughly 300 hourly.
