Upbit Alternatives — Evidence Comparison

Alternative venues are shown for evidence comparison and are not recommendations. They are included because published evidence attributes differ from Upbit — not because Upbit is “bad”, and not because of commercial relationships.

Why these venues are included

Each candidate differs from Upbit on at least one published evidence attribute (regulation, legal-entity mapping, PoR, custody, geographic records, products, or completeness). Inclusion is deterministic from the public snapshot.

What remains unresolved

Open questions and missing domains stay unknown. An empty cell is not a safety finding.

  • Upbit: No dated official PoR/attestation snapshot located for SAFE insert
  • Upbit: No confirmed primary incident packaged
  • Crypto.com: HISTORICAL only: Mazars AUP as of 2022-12-07 still hosted. Re-check 2026-09-13 found no newer dated official Exchange PoR / attestation / wallet disclosure snapshot. STALE as current reserve evidence — do not present as current.
  • Crypto.com: Status page located; no dated material incident structured (status≠incident)
  • HTX: Current HTX Platform User Agreement defines contracting parties as collective 'HTX Operators' (legal persons/DAO/unincorporated organisations/teams) without naming a single global operator company. Do not inherit Huobi Global Limited / Huobi Global S.A. as current HTX operator without a current primary source tying that name to today's platform.
  • HTX: No regulator-register row attachable: named current global HTX operator entity still unresolved. Legacy Huobi licence claims from secondary news not applied.
  • Binance: ADGM Nest trio roles mapped from official ADGM Terms; Binance FZE mapped from FZE Terms + VARA VL/24/04/001. Do not treat any single entity licence as brand-wide global authorisation. Nest Trading Limited role kept as unknown enum (broker-dealer/off-exchange per terms) pending richer role taxonomy.
  • Bitget: FSA Seychelles lists BTG Technology Holdings Limited on the VASP Assessment list (2026-03-09). Not a granted licence. Operator marketing licences (AUSTRAC etc.) were not confirmed on primary registers in this pass; VARA public register has no Bitget VASP licence row (2026-09-13).

Limitations

This is not a “best alternative” ranking. Evidence differences can change as records are re-verified. Regional records do not imply global approval.
