With the plan dismissed and no new timeline in place, all hope for June restitution is gone.<\/p>\n<h2>Radio silence<\/h2>\n<p>WazirX\u2019s sudden legal relocation to Panama, kept quiet until unearthed through court documents, has ignited a firestorm among users. Initially based in India, then Singapore, WazirX&#8217;s third move has drawn intense backlash.<\/p>\n<p>Indian investors now find themselves tangled in legal obscurity, uncertain of their rights or whom to approach for clarity. The silence from the company\u2019s leadership has made matters worse.<\/p>\n<p>Since the court ruling, no one, including founder Nischal Shetty, has addressed users publicly. The only communication has been an email acknowledging the judgment and stating that legal options are being explored.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, WazirX&#8217;s social channels have restricted replies, effectively muting its once-vocal user base.<\/p>\n<h2>Investors revolt<\/h2>\n<p>Investor frustration has reached a boiling point.
