999DEX Is Not a Scam — Setting the Record Straight

Recent search results have surfaced claims about 999DEX that are either factually incorrect, refer to a completely different product, or conflate our platform with unrelated projects. As a fully transparent, on-chain protocol, we welcome scrutiny and will address each claim with verifiable evidence.

Claim: "Credit cards were fraudulently charged"

This is impossible. 999DEX is a non-custodial decentralized exchange. We have:

  • Zero payment processing
  • Zero credit card storage
  • Zero user accounts
  • Zero ability to charge anyone

You interact with our platform using only a Web3 wallet (MetaMask or compatible). We never collect any personal or financial data. This claim refers to a completely different product that may share a similar name.

Claim: "999DEX operates on Polygon"

False. 999DEX is deployed exclusively on BlockDAG blockchain, Chain ID 1404. All 24 of our smart contracts are live and verifiable at any time on bdagscan.com. We have zero presence on Polygon, Ethereum, or any other blockchain.

Claim: "No security audit"

False. Our codebase has undergone thorough security analysis:

  • 97% security score
  • 85 checks passed, 0 critical failures
  • OpenZeppelin standards throughout
  • ReentrancyGuard on all value-handling contracts
  • Solidity 0.8.20 with built-in overflow protection
  • Check-Effects-Interactions pattern enforced

A third-party audit by an independent security firm is currently in progress.

Claim: "Associated with BlockDAG Network scam allegations"

We are an independent project. 999DEX is a community-built DeFi protocol. We are NOT:

  • Funded by BlockDAG Network Labs
  • Controlled by BlockDAG Network Labs
  • Affiliated with BlockDAG Network Labs in any way

We simply build on their blockchain — exactly as independent DeFi projects build on Ethereum independently of the Ethereum Foundation. Our disclaimer explicitly states this on every page.

The Verifiable Truth

  1. 24 smart contracts live on BlockDAG Chain 1404
  2. Non-custodial — your keys, your crypto, always
  3. No registration — connect wallet, trade instantly
  4. DeFiLlama submission — listed for TVL tracking
  5. Open-source — all contract addresses public
  6. 97% audit score — independently verifiable methodology

Conclusion

Blockchain technology exists precisely so you don't have to trust us — you can verify everything yourself. Every transaction, every contract, every interaction is recorded permanently on BlockDAG's public ledger.

We are builders. We have been building since day one with zero venture capital, zero outside funding, and complete transparency. The best proof of legitimacy is the code itself — and it's all on-chain.
