It seems that tradeogre has had some very suspicious activity over the last couple of weeks/months. When u add it up, over 18 million $ has been withdrawn from @TradeOgre to 0xad4b3671fc83156322540eda364f8c19ecb18dae in the last three weeks
Added context: Thread on nitter
Can recommend this exchange. Used several times and all good! Sometimes had to wait for withdraw/deposit confirmation, but in the end, brilliant! :) 5/5 I hope TO stays for long time. <3
This seems to be one of the best order book type exchanges out there. The things I dislike about them is:
- deposit/withdrawal can be nervously slow
- all the dam captchas to login
- you can't generate a new deposit address meaning you have to be mindful not to link transactions
Their support on twitter is weirdly quick to reply though.
I came here to make sure this was on your list. I’ve had numerous transactions 1k$+ LTC/USDT then go USDT/XMR or BTC. No problems. All under 1 account. Have always had quick access to withdraw also. Takes 10 confirmations though before you can do anything with it. Can be hassle when markets are fluctuating and I didn’t send enough gas or some bs. Not gonna lie lost 30-40 easy 1/2 times with not timing it right. but I’ve also made 30-40 back easy by just setting a higher price and forgetting about it.
Not sure if i put 5 stars on the last one...
I've used TradeOgre a few times in the last three months for small altcoin trades; withdrawals worked fine, but I always follow the rule to avoid keeping funds on any exchange longer than necessary.
It is been over 24 hours and they are not allowing me to withdraw my funds, is this a scam service? Admins please check this.

Fixed, all good.
Good. If you want to change the rating you posted, you should make a new comment with the updated rating.
No issue to report, never had any issue with their service (exchanging thousands to/from monero).
TradeOgre was a go-to for privacy coin fans — no KYC, fast swaps. Sad to see it shut down. ⚠️
