Cyprus and Spain both warned about cryptocapitalfx.com itself in April 2019. CySEC rejected a claimed connection to A. Eternity Capital Management Ltd and its licence 346/17. The Spanish notice separately covers investment advice and foreign-exchange transactions.
The Claim About Licence 346/17
CySEC reports that the site suggested ownership by, or a relationship with, A. Eternity Capital Management Ltd. The regulator rejected that representation and said the website did not belong to an investment-services provider authorised under the cited Cypriot law.

Comparing the Approved Website
The CySEC profile for the genuine company gives registration number 368071, licence 346/17 and a licence date of December 11, 2017. The approved-domain field lists a-eternitycapital.ltd.cy. The Nicosia address and contact information on that profile belong to the licensed entity.

Two April Notices With Different Scopes
CySEC’s announcement index dates its warning to April 10, 2019. The unofficial English PDF leaves the day and month blank. On April 15 the Spanish CNMV separately named the root website and described services it was unauthorised to provide in Spain, including investment advice concerning the covered instruments.

Why the Notices Name cryptocapitalfx.com
Both authorities printed cryptocapitalfx.com itself. An investor with a message from the root address can therefore use an exact-domain notice. The word crypto in the name does not identify a token, a custody arrangement or a promised yield. The Spanish warning expressly includes foreign-currency operations within its stated scope.

Limits of the Current Website Check
The apex host failed to resolve over HTTP and HTTPS. Verisign returned HTTP 404 for the domain lookup. No current legal page or certificate could be compared with the historical representation. This leaves the present operator unidentified.
Unverified Customer Terms
The licensed company’s listed portfolio-management and custody permissions provide no evidence about what an account on this website offered. Deposit amounts, return assumptions, withdrawal conditions and customer losses remain unverified.
Who Actually Held Licence 346/17?
CySEC’s account separates A. Eternity Capital Management Ltd from the party claiming its licence. Someone checking an offer should compare the sender and payment recipient with the licensed firm’s independently published contacts. The licence number is precisely the detail that can be copied.
How to Read a Licence Claim on an Old Agreement
There are three separate comparisons a reader can make with a CryptoCapitalFX agreement. First, look at the name printed above the signature line. Next, compare the licence number with the name on the CySEC profile. Finally, check the website through which the agreement arrived. A document could get the first two details exactly right while directing the customer to cryptocapitalfx.com instead of the approved website. That last discrepancy is particularly significant here because CySEC expressly addressed the claimed connection. If the payment instructions then name yet another entity, keep that name in the account history as the stated beneficiary until the relationship can be documented.
How to Cite the April Warning Date
The English-language CySEC document presents an unusual problem for anyone reconstructing the sequence of notices. Its date line alone cannot supply the exact April day. The announcement index supplies April 10, while the Spanish document gives its own date of April 15. Keep the index with the English document when citing the first date. Then cite the Spanish notice separately for the services it covers. This small step makes the chronology reproducible for another reader, particularly one who finds the English PDF directly without first seeing the regulator’s announcement list. In a complaint, a copy of the register entry can sit beside the purported agreement. Mark the line showing the authorised website as well as the licence number. Those two fields make the discrepancy legible even to a reader who has never encountered either business before.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which Date Belongs to the Cypriot Warning?
April 10 is the announcement date in CySEC’s index. April 15 is the date of Spain’s separately issued warning. The blank date line in the English translation cannot settle either date by itself.
Did the Genuine Company Operate This Site?
CySEC expressly rejected the claimed link. Its register points to a different approved website and supplies contact details for independently checking communications attributed to the licensed firm.
Conclusion and Reporting Guidance
The root-domain warning and CySEC’s rejection of the claimed licence relationship are verified. Neither notice identifies the people who made the representation or establishes the outcome of a specific customer payment.
Keep the licence claim exactly as received, along with the sending address, date, payment beneficiary and any screenshot. A report to CySEC or CNMV can then identify both the genuine company referenced and the website that made the claim.
