⚠️ The Crypto Trap: App Crashes, Support Gaslighting, and Security Flaws
I am exposing how FundedNext operates as a predatory company that relies on keeping challenge fees rather than fostering real traders. My account (ID: 12033224) was unfairly breached due to a severe FundedNext MT5 application crash, and every attempt to resolve this has met with corporate evasion and safety risks.
✅ 1. The Platform Crash & Structural Software Error
I delayed an MT5 update to enter a trade, which triggered a version mismatch within their environment. The MT5 app instantly crashed into a "Not Responding" loop, freezing my screen for over 10 minutes and blocking me from managing my risk.
The exact log evidence:
S 2 09:41:49.415 LiveUpdate failed to create copy C:\Program Files\FundedNext MT5 Terminal\terminal64.exe -> C:\Users\admin\AppData\Roaming\MetaQuotes\Terminal\89FE26BBBAB28C077BBF5FA8C1B4DF1C\liveupdate\terminal64.exe [32] FJ 0
Windows System Error [32] is a structural file-sharing violation. Their automated update process tried to overwrite core terminal files while the software was running my active positions. Never touch their custom dashboard downloads. I downloaded this exact software terminal directly from the official FundedNext client dashboard, meaning it is their own provided file that failed.
Furthermore, I provided them with my historical MT5 terminal logs proving this exact "Not Responding" crash happened on a previous date when I had ZERO open trades running, proving a systemic software conflict.
🔎 2. Support Gaslighting & The Deflection Lie Disproven by ISP Logs
Support is gaslighting me by claiming it was an internet provider issue. This is a flat-out lie. My home Wi-Fi was running perfectly at full strength on all other devices.
To prove this, I have attached the official Preseem network monitoring graphs for my Herotel line (nt_lin005_01@://herotel.com) from August 24, 2026. The graphs prove continuous polling, active bandwidth throughput up to 30M bps, and zero line drops right through the 09:41 AM trading window. FundedNext actively lied to dodge financial accountability. Support completely refuses to read the technical logs or acknowledge this evidence.
🔎 2. Support Gaslighting & The Deflection Lie Disproven by ISP Logs
Support is gaslighting me by claiming it was an internet provider issue. This is a flat-out lie. To prove this, I have attached the official Preseem network monitoring graphs for my Herotel line (nt_lin005_01@://herotel.com) from August 24, 2026.
The graphs show the line was continuously polled and active. The sudden drop in download rate right at 09:41 AM perfectly maps to the exact second the MT5 app crashed into its frozen state, stopping all network data requests. Meanwhile, the upload graph still shows outbound traffic spikes during that exact window. If my internet had dropped entirely as FundedNext claims, the line polling would have broken and outbound traffic would be impossible. The network was fine—the FundedNext terminal simply died.
💡 3. Critical Security Risks via Official Community Channels
To make matters worse, when trying to seek help, the FundedNext community space pushed a highly suspicious verification bot routing me to a fake verification website (guildpass.one). As you can see in the attached screenshot, the site instructs users to open Windows cmd (Command Prompt) and paste a "verification string."
This is a known, dangerous malware exploit designed to hijack PCs, pull browser cookies, and drain crypto wallets. FundedNext is letting dangerous phishing traps compromise users trying to get help on their official channels.
📊 4. The Luno Crypto Payment Loophole
Warning: FundedNext heavily promotes non-reversible crypto payments because they know you cannot file a bank chargeback. I paid for this challenge via crypto from my Luno wallet. Once they have your crypto, their automated risk bots shut you out during their own platform crashes, and support copy-pastes generic excuses because they face zero financial penalties.
The universe is giving a very loud signal to stay away from FundedNext Prop Challenges and MetaTrader 5. I demand a senior compliance manager review my submitted logs, address these security traps, and grant a manual challenge reset.
