Early BitMEX Investor Files Suit Against the Platform

Amato claims he was one of the first people to invest in the exchange, providing the company with more than $30,000 in the year 2015 on account of his promises of equity. In November, it was revealed that email data belonging to the customers of BitMEX had been leaked during a security breach.

The exchange later explained that the mistake resulted from employees utilizing the CC email option instead of BCC, which ultimately hides the email address of recipients from other users. The company issued a statement explaining: We are aware that some of our users have received a general user update email earlier today, which contained the email addresses of other users.
