Official Clarification: ExchangeCatalogue Is Not a Broker or Exchange

Last updated: 18.02.2026

ExchangeCatalogue.com is a crypto exchange comparison and research platform owned and operated by CATALINQ LLC.

Third parties might impersonate our brand or misrepresent ExchangeCatalogue as a broker/exchange and claim things like promised returns, withdrawals, deposits, missing funds, account closures, or aggressive support.

Those claims are factually incorrect.

Key Facts

ExchangeCatalogue is informational only. That means:

  • We do not provide trading or investment accounts
  • We do not execute trades
  • We do not accept deposits
  • We do not process withdrawals
  • We do not custody or hold user funds
  • We do not promise returns or profits
  • Users cannot open accounts on ExchangeCatalogue

If you saw content claiming otherwise, it is describing a service we do not offer.

What ExchangeCatalogue Actually Is

ExchangeCatalogue.com helps you cut through the noise and see how crypto exchanges stack up on:

  • Security
