Summary

Orionx, a Santiago-based, Tether-backed crypto exchange, announced a permanent shutdown on 3 September 2026 after a forensic audit reportedly found a custody shortfall above US$7 million. The company filed a criminal complaint against two former executives, who deny wrongdoing; Chile's financial regulator says Orionx was unauthorized, rejected its application in June 2026, and cannot order customer repayment.
