“Over the last month, our team has worked diligently to get the marketplace back online with the safety and security of users paramount,” Paxful said.
In a statement announcing its decision to shut down last month, Ray Youssef, Paxful’s Founder and CEO, noted that all customer funds were accounted for. He also urged them to withdraw their funds and self-custody.
Additionally, Youssef said Paxful was offering its users outside the United States “easy migration” to other platforms such as Noones, which is a newly-established P2P platform dedicated to the Global South.
“Throughout the suspension the Paxful Wallet remained fully operational for our users and the community were also offered a selection of peer-to-peer platforms to continue trading on,” Paxful explained in the new blog post.
