Koineks Teknoloji A.Ş., known online as Thodex, was a Turkey-based cryptocurrency exchange founded by Faruk Fatih Özer. Thodex was the first global exchange based in Turkey and of the 40 cryptocurrency exchanges in Turkey at the time. It had 391,000 users when it froze in April 2021 and an estimated $2 billion in money from investors when the owner fled Turkey and shut down the company. Thodex was founded as Koineks in 2017, at the time only the fourth cryptocurrency exchange to be founded in Turkey. They established Turkey's first Bitcoin ATMs. Koineks went global in 2020, changing its name to Thodex in March 2020. That year, Thodex was also licensed by Financial Crimes Enforcement Network as a Money Service Business (MSB). The total transaction volume on Thodex was ~$3 billion as of November 2020. The exchange had various rewards campaigns to draw in new users and new capital. Thodex ran their final rewards campaign from March 15 until April 15, 2021.
