Which companies just had a verified incident, who lends to them and who owns them. Every claim carries its evidence level and its source. How we decide what is confirmed
Global Financial Service Disruptions
When banks, exchanges, brokers and payment providers unexpectedly stop customers moving money. A restriction is recorded as a fact; its cause is a separate, sourced judgement, and an unexplained restriction is never presented as an attack.
On a fixed panel of 54 provider status feeds, restrictions rose from 48 to 58 between the two most recent 14-day windows, within normal variation. What changed is the cause mix: nine restrictions with confirmed cyber causes began in the last 14 days against one in the 14 days before, led by the Binance withdrawal freeze, Credit Mutuel Arkea and a Japanese hosting breach that reached FX brokers. Historical coverage is too uneven to call a multi-year acceleration.
Where restrictions were recorded
Countries shaded by number of verified records; select one to filter. Red dot: confirmed cyber cause. Open amber ring: unexplained. Grey: other causes. Counts reflect where DFX searched as much as where events happened.
Live: provider-posted restrictions
Raised automatically when a financial provider's own status page says customers cannot withdraw, deposit, transfer, settle or trade. Unclassified until an analyst reviews them; hand-checked precision of the rule on 30 posts was 87%.
Coverage is reduced: DFX is not reading 105 of 124 status feeds, because their robots.txt does not allow it or could not be read, while we move to the incident feeds providers publish.

Verified significant restrictions by month
Tier 1 research records (broad, unexpected, an hour or more or reported by a regulator or credible outlet). Red is the confirmed-cyber share. Search depth was much greater for October 2026 than for earlier months, so this chart cannot show acceleration on its own.
Early-warning watchlist: unexplained restrictions
Verified restrictions from the last 45 days with no established cause. Listed because the cause is unknown, not because an attack is suspected.
Shared infrastructure
Providers named in two or more verified records. A shared provider is a documented dependency, not evidence of a shared compromise.
