GrayScale Forex is a forex broker officially registered on January 3, 2024, mainly providing investors with trading services for financial derivatives such as forex, commodities, indices, cryptocurrencies, and futures. However, the physical address of the company's headquarters is unknown. This broker does not offer services to jurisdictions that may violate local laws or regulations.
Corporate Registration Information and Regulatory Status:
The “Law Requests Policy” page on the GrayScale Forex official website shows that its registered entity is Grayscale Forex Global Ltd, and the "Regulation" section indicates that this broker is authorized and regulated by the Seychelles Financial Services Authority (FSA). Additionally, the broker’s website’s "Help Centre" page refers to three financial regulators: the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC), the New Zealand Financial Markets Authority (FMA), and the Vanuatu Financial Services Commission (VFSC), but does not mention whether it has obtained regulation from them.
Upon investigation, the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC), the New Zealand Financial Markets Authority (FMA), the Vanuatu Financial Services Commission (VFSC), and the Seychelles Financial Services Authority (FSA) did not have any record of a broker or a corporate entity named GrayScale Forex or Grayscale Forex Global Ltd. Hence, the authenticity of this broker's registered entity is questionable, and it is suspected of making false promotional claims to mislead investors.

Trading Platform:
