Digital Trust Mining / REALTRADEFX: Mining and Forex Scam Warning

Mining income and forex trading sold under one roof: Digital Trust Mining appears in the official record under a second name, REALTRADEFX. The two names merge on a single website: digitaltrustmining.com.
🔍 Two Names on One Site
On 25.09.2026 the UK FCA included the scheme among unauthorised firms under the name "Digital Trust Mining / REALTRADEFX". The entry gives an address in Merthyr Tydfil, Wales, and the e-mail address [email protected]. The domain itself was registered only on 07.08.2026 through Realtime Register B.V.; it was live for less than two months before the warning.
The Capital Trustblank forex schemeTR, which also has "Trust" in its name, is a separate platform; there is no shared domain or contact link between them.
⛏️ How Is the Mining Promise Built?
In schemes that sell mining and forex trading together, the sequence usually runs as follows:
- The investor buys "daily hash income" from a mining site that does not actually exist.
- The accumulated income is steered into forex trading on the same dashboard and moved to a leveraged account.
- Once a large package is bought, withdrawals are stopped on grounds such as "verification" or the "contract period".
SPK Decision No. 8/297 of 24.02.2017 treats the intermediation of leveraged transactions by unauthorised entities as unauthorised activity.
