Closed and Paused Crypto Prop Firms

This page lists closed crypto prop firms: firms we track that have stopped selling challenges or paused new sign-ups. We keep them on record because traders still search for them, and because a firm closing tells you something useful about the ones still open.

What happens when a crypto prop firm closes

A closure is not always a collapse. Some firms stop selling new challenges while existing funded accounts keep trading and getting paid under the old rules. Others pause to rebuild their rules or platform. The worst case is a firm that stops paying, which is why we log every change with a date on our rule changes page.

If you hold an account with a firm listed here:

1. Read the firm's own announcement and terms, and save a copy.
2. Request any payout you are already eligible for as soon as the rules allow.
3. Do not buy resets or add-ons while the firm's future is unclear.
4. Keep your trade history and payout records.

How we decide a firm is closed

We mark a firm closed only when it stops selling challenges to new traders, according to its own site or announcement. A firm that changes its rules or prices stays open; those changes go to the rule change log instead.

Closed crypto prop firms and how to pick a safer one

Firms rarely close without warning signs. Watch for payout delays, sudden rule changes that apply to existing accounts, unclear company details and very low prices funded by high fail rates. Our methodology scores transparency and payout terms for exactly this reason. For firms that are open and paying, see the best crypto prop firms and are crypto prop firms legit.
