Gala Trading Releasing Funds – Possible Scam OR What?

Hello guys…
I’ve had an account with Gala Trading for 3 months and technically still have one. Recently, I decided to draw my money out, but now I’m running into issues that make me suspicious.

Here’s the situation:

  • Verification process: They’re telling me I need to ‘convince’ the blockchain that I’m legitimate. This involves putting 10% of my funds into my wallet (£???K) before they release my money. This raised a red flag for me, and I’m worried it might be a scam.
  • Account growth: The trader claims my account grew enormously after the recent bitcoin halving, which seems too good to be true in my opinion.

Basically, I want some advice, as I think this may be a scam. They’ve asked me to put more of my funds into an existing crypto wallet so they can verify me and my funding sources via the blockchain before releasing my funds.

Is this legit? I’m really out of my depth here and could use some guidance.
