Axneb Review: “Asset management” themed MLM crypto Ponzi

Axneb fails to provide ownership or executive information on its website.

Axneb’s website domain (“axneb.com”), was privately registered on February 10th, 2023.

SimilarWeb currently tracks top sources of traffic to Axneb’s website as Russia (22%), Brazil (9%), the US (9%) and Italy (5%).

On April 3rd, the Central Bank of Russia issued an Axneb pyramid fraud warning.
