Inside the Leak: Axiom's $390M Platform Is Rocked by Allegations That a Senior Employee Used Internal Dashboards to Stalk Trader Wallets for Profit
ZachXBT's February 26, 2026 investigation has named Broox Bauer, a senior business development employee at Axiom Exchange — a Y Combinator-backed Solana trading platform with over $390 million in lifetime revenue — in an alleged year-long scheme to access private wallet data through internal dashboards, compile crypto influencer trading portfolios in shared spreadsheets, and trade ahead of high-profile positions dating back to early 2025.
