Scam exchange. The domain was registered less than a week ago. It has fake seals in the bottom right of the page. It suggests there is an iOS app and an Android app, but there isn't.

I got a message on Discord suggesting I won 0.61 BTC which I needed to "verify my account" by giving them documents. Getting a message like this already screams scam, and uploading documents is something I wouldn't do for a very new service that screams scammy.

If you attempt to withdraw the BTC, they give you an error message stating you're a new account and you need to deposit 0.02 BTC to prove you're not a bot. Basically, they're trying to trick you into giving them 0.02 BTC by making you think you've got some amount of BTC, which is just a number in the account. You're able to use the BTC to trade for ETH or other coins but, again, you're unable to withdraw unless you deposit 0.02 BTC. The trades happen instantaneously and there is a stream of trades "appearing" to be processed, though it's highly unlikely that's the case and doesn't include the trade you made. It's most likely an automatically generated "trade" with random values.

Any reputable exchange sending out 0.61 BTC to all, or even some, of their customers would operate totally in the red. It wouldn't make sense as they wouldn't profit off these people. It's basically if a casino told you they'll give you $10,000 in monopoly money if you paid $100 for it.

Avoid.

Send you random code telling you won few thousands of BTC then ask you to send 0.02 BTC to withdraw. Pure scam, as usual.
