I am devastated, my wife is divorcing me she is taking the kids and talking all sort of **** to them that their daddy their daddy lost the money for their college and such. And I am here on my knees just crying.

It may not look like much to you, but this is all we had, I don't wanna even live anymore....

First, you have to accept this loss and move on. It's not the end of the world, but unfortunately, it's just a very expensive lesson for you.

However, I have to criticize you.

They don't reply to my emails, there is no way to contact them through social media, they have no phone number no nothing......

How the hell did you start looking for their phone numbers and contacts only after you sent the money? Isn't it logical that you check all that first before you send $48k?

Look at what at03gopoh found in a short time, and it's enough for a red flag to stay away from these fraudsters.

I'm not gonna jump to conclusions either one is legit, I noticed the .io domain was also just registered recently (5 months ago as of today)^[1]. Just thinking of the possible scenario of the same scammer making multiple copy versions too to make some sort of repressions that the original is only one of them.

I found one review that attached proof of payment^[2], the bitcoins were sent to the (what I assume) Mexc account deposit address 332jBJ2vM7hy8DSbPWwGCukAcBoaEtskE1
ended up in a hot wallet^[3] 33ze68qZoBE9R4uMtRQGNnvgFTYN4sPBUq.

So I am here begging you, please help me get my money back from these thieves.

Unfortunately, in addition to your despair, this forum does not have the power to help you return these funds. You should have come here to ask for advice before you sent the money. Surely you would not be in this situation now.
Follow albon suggestion and try to talk with MEXC, it's probably your only chance.
