    800 Ether tokens have been withdrawn from the HEX account and allegedly sent to Bitfinex which has caused suspicions that HEX is preparing for an exit scam. These news were first revealed on Reddit and then supported by evidence from Etherscan.

    The founder of HEX, Richard Heart, stated that there are 46,000 ETH left to withdraw and they are held in a single address that is controlled by anonymous individual. This makes users uncomfortable, especially considering that Richard Hart was revealed to be a former internet “Spam King” with ties to a Panamanian criminal network.

    This could be nothing or it could be a prelude to the next exit scam in the industry. At this point it's hard to tell what's paranoia and what's genuine suspicion.

    I was hoping people were just paranoid but apparently it's more than that.
