Track record (2+ years incident-free)
Operating since 2018. In January 2023 Nexo paid $45M to settle with the SEC and US states over its Earn Interest Product, and in October 2022 Bulgarian authorities raided its Sofia offices; that probe was dropped in December 2023 and Nexo has since filed a $3B arbitration claim against Bulgaria. These are regulatory and legal matters. We found no hack, withdrawal freeze or loss of client funds, so it passes our two-year rule. Source 1 → Source 2 → Source 3 → Source 4 →

How PAXG earns on Nexo
When you deposit PAXG into Nexo's earn product you receive 0.5 % APY as a Flexible rate. The platform puts the asset to work and shares the yield — your balance grows without you doing anything.
This is a base rate, not a promotional teaser: it's what an ordinary deposit actually earns. Nexo carries a YieldScope safety grade of B, so weigh the yield against platform risk — a higher rate on a weaker grade is not automatically a better deal.
Rates on PAXG move with lending demand and market conditions. We re-check them daily and keep a history, so you can see whether today's number is unusually high, unusually low, or steady.
