I'm not siding with STEX exchange. I haven't heard of it. It may be a scam exchange or not, but my point is that if you are not planning to trade for the next several months, there is no reason for your funds to stay on exchanges.
It is questionable for any exchange for that matter to simply declare an exchange account as abandoned simply because the owner hasn't accessed it for months. It could be interpreted as a sneaky stipulation in their ToS, or even an attempt by them to just confiscate the funds for no other reason than wanting them.
Let's be honest and call the things what they are. It's not "confiscating funds", but it's literally stealing.
