π Security Notice: Data Exposure During Infrastructure Migration
We are writing to inform our community of a security incident that occurred during our recent database migration from Neon to Supabase.
What happened:
During the migration window, Row Level Security (RLS) was not enabled immediately on our new database. This created a brief period during which unauthorized parties were able to query and export user account data directly from our Supabase instance.
No passwords, private keys, wallet seeds, or financial transaction details were exposed.
What we have done:
> RLS has been fully enabled on all database tables, closing the exposure window completely
> Our infrastructure has been hardened with additional access controls
> We are conducting a full audit of all access logs from the affected period
What you should do:
> Be alert to phishing emails or messages impersonating EBR Exchange... your email address may have been obtained by a third party
> If you receive suspicious contact asking for passwords, OTPs, or fund transfers, do not engage
> Your funds and private credentials remain secure
We take full responsibility for this oversight and sincerely apologize for the breach of trust.
We are aware that this incident has put EBR under a magnifying glass. Critics are watching, and some are hoping this is the end of us... it won't be!!
Every platform that earns lasting trust has faced a moment that tested it. This is ours. We are not running from it. We are fixing it, owning it, and coming back stronger. EBR was built for the Ethiopian community and we intend to be here for the long run. Your trust is the only thing worth fighting for, and we are not letting go of it.

Sometimes we sit back and ask ourselves: why is everyone so determined to tear us down instead of helping us build?
Behind EBR isn't a big company. It's a small team of people sacrificing their time, energy, sleep, and personal resources to create something we believe can genuinely help our community.
We're not perfect. We've made mistakes, and we'll probably make more. But every day we wake up and keep building, fixing issues, listening to feedback, and trying to make the platform better.
What hurts isn't criticism... we welcome that. What hurts is seeing people celebrate our challenges, spread negativity, and hope for our failure instead of contributing to a solution.
If you've ever reported a bug, shared feedback, supported us, or simply believed in what we're trying to build, thank you. It means more than you know.
We're not giving up. We'll keep learning, improving, and building... because we believe our community deserves betterπ₯ π

Should EBR introduce a small trading fee to fund referral rewards?
EBR currently operates with 0% trading fees, and our goal is to keep costs as low as possible for everyone.
However, our referral system is already fully developed, with commission tiers of up to 40% for top referrers. At the moment, referral rewards cannot be distributed because there are no trading fees to share.
We're considering introducing a small platform fee (0.1%β0.5% per trade) solely to fund referral commissions. This would allow users who refer active traders to earn a percentage of their referrals' trading activity, paid automatically in USDT.
Before making any changes, we'd like to hear directly from the community:
> Should EBR introduce a small fee to activate referral rewards?
> What fee percentage would you consider fair?
> Or should EBR remain at 0% fees and keep referrals inactive for now?

EBR is built for its community, and your feedback will help shape this decision.

We are officially opening our Merchant Program to new applicants.
If you're a money exchanger, forex agent, or financial service provider looking to grow your business, EBR gives you a direct channel to thousands of verified Ethiopian users actively buying and selling USDT.
What you get as an EBR Verified Merchant:
Apply through the platform and our team will review your application within 24 hours.
β οΈ Notice to Existing verified Merchants:
We have noticed that a significant number of our current merchants are frequently offline and inactive on the platform. This directly impacts the experience of our users who rely on you for timely, reliable trades.
We understand that running a trading operation is demanding... but inactivity hurts your reputation score, reduces your visibility in the marketplace, and ultimately costs you business.
Effective immediately, we ask all active merchants to:
> Keep your orders live and updated
> Respond to trade requests within a reasonable time
> Stay online during your stated operating hours
> Keep your payment methods and limits current
Merchants with prolonged inactivity may have their Merchant status reviewed. We want every merchant on EBR to succeed... but the platform works only when you show up for your traders.
If you're facing any technical issues or need support, reach out to our team directly. We're here to help.
Thank you for being part of EBR.
