ZachXBT names Axiom in investigation into alleged employee insider trading

Blockchain investigator ZachXBT published an investigation naming crypto trading platform Axiom, alleging that a senior business development employee named "Broox" abused internal customer support tools to access private wallet data of Axiom users. ZachXBT cited recordings where Broox described tracking wallets discreetly and alleged that Broox shared screenshots of internal dashboards showing wallets linked to specific traders and compiled lists of key opinion leader wallets. The investigation further suggested plans to use this privileged data to profit from trades, including helping an associate profit $200,000. Axiom acknowledged the allegations, stating they were surprised and disappointed, and confirmed they removed the employee's access to the tools while promising further investigation. ZachXBT noted that Axiom's internal access controls were unusually permissive, allowing employees to view extensive wallet and transaction data. The probe followed significant speculation on prediction markets like Polymarket regarding which company ZachXBT would expose for insider trading.
