Vertex is unregulated and operates on a fake license. This is all clear now when i requested for a withdrawal of my investments with profits and my account was closed. This made me do a bit of research into them and lead me to seekrail.com which is a private funds recovery firm engaging victims of different investment scams. They certified them to be a scam company, using the idea of crowdfunding to invest in cryptocurrency assets, making a lot of profits, redirecting investors funds and never allowing investors to withdraw. Seekrail.com was able to recover my funds with profits due to quick intervention.
