Odaily Planet Daily News According to community user @chaoge_btc, AEX Exchange (formerly known as Bit Era) founder Huang Tianwei was arrested in Thailand on the evening of July 3 and was bailed out by his family. Reports indicate that currently only three people have successfully retrieved their funds from the exchange, including users Wu Jun, Rong Hua, and Shi Dewei. The methods used to recover the funds involved extreme measures such as 'digging up ancestors' graves' and 'forcibly reclaiming,' while other users still cannot withdraw their coins. AEX Exchange has been operating since 2013 and has a large amount of accumulated funds.
