  @AltcoinDailyio I buy BTC on bitfinex every time the price goes down. I am sure that we will see a critical market recovery soon.

  @LPCapitalChi I wouldn’t frame it as being a “good guy” but he could potentially have an overall “good impact.” Same goes for Jesse from Kraken and Paolo from Bitfinex. They still seem to genuinely believe in and support Bitcoin unlike Coinbase Brian, SBF, and the other big crypto scammers

  @cryptoworld202 I have never had any problems with bitfinex. I see no reason to change the exchange.

  Why is @bitfinex so slow to fill small BTC orders? @Bybit_Official would have done it in a second and this one is taking more than 5 minutes. Is it like a technical thing?

  @coinmamba For spot trading and/or if you don't want to self-custody, Bitfinex. If they go down, cryptos are ******* done with.

  @Cointelegraph Just use the trusted exchanges, what's the problem? Bitfinex is a great example of a good trading platform.

  @coinmamba I've been using bitfinex for many years, and idk, had no problems

  @rovercrc Sorry, but I'm not ready to change Bitfinex platform for anything else yet. This is a safety issue, and here I feel actually protected.

  Oh boy. I’m rather picky about giving my phone number to some random internet service. Asking me for photo id is asking me to get off your service, which I’ll happily oblige @bitfinex

  Kraken, Binance, Bitfinex, and Kucoin are popular exchanges that allow you to buy XMR depending on your location. Please note that some of these changes may routinely prevent you from withdrawing your coins due to dubious ‘wallet maintenance’ or ‘network issues’.

  @bitfinex I submitted a withdrawal 5 days ago and it’s status is still “processing”. I had been planning to convert the funds to fiat immediately and price has gone down while my funds have been in limbo. This is disgraceful. Please take steps to resolve asap.

  @Davincij15 No one will ever convince me to stop buying Bitcoin on Bitfinex even under the pretext that it might go down to zero. I don't believe this **** and will continue my way.

  _Ha_yes_ (@moonboys7) reported 39 minutes ago

  Why did Bitfinex act in this way? Well at the same time Bitfinex’s sister company Tether had liquidity issues. And the haircut from users as well as the buying back of debt for half price allowed for liquidity to prop up Tether.

  @DylanLeClair_ Many different jurisdictions already fighting re process/ownership of the bankruptcy proceedings it looks rather unlikely imo they can pull off a Bitfinex style restucturing. + legal/reg uncertainty, different creditor groups, customer trust in FTX 2.0?

  @SBF_FTX @cryptomanran The Bitfinex Model… are you aware of Bitfinex Model Sam? It was a large exchange like yours and got hacked. I throw this out there because I genuinely believe you have zerooooo interest or knowledge of the industry. Jesus Sam… you had that golden egg. Wtf?!

  @DU09BTC I think bitfinex did something similar years ago with their token and lost customer funds. They're inextricably linked to tether too.... Full circle ⭕

  Tommi Komulainen (@tko) reported 48 minutes ago

  Back in the day I bought a couple bitcoins at 40€ .. can I use them to earn som interest or something now that bitfinex with their funding program chose to make their service unacceptable

  @bitfinex What is going to happen to old users with unverified accounts? I understand you'll no longer service them? what is going to happen with their accounts?

  @WatcherGuru Glad to see he wants to do what bitfinex did to their customers after they got hacked. What happened to customer funds? You get a **** coin while they keep your btc, crypto, lol!

  @lopp I’d be down for letting ftx run as a business with the entire management team disbanded and put in prison for those responsible. And attempting to pay people off with fees / business performance as bitfinex did. I don’t see a huge downside to this.

  @JoelKatz @cz_binance @benbybit If the exchange is re-started for the creditors, it in their best interest to use the product and help it grow. It's an exchange owned by the creditors and they can sell their "stake" at any time. Bitfinex did something similar and it worked great! 2/2

  @fillbeforeshill How would this work, it's not the same situation at all. Bitfinex got hacked, but people still liked bitfinex and were willing to support it. Ftx commited fraud, under what management would this new exchange operate?

  @maziyarkamran Tether (USDT) is a cryptocurrency stablecoin pegged to the U.S. dollar and backed "100% by Tether's reserves," according its website. Tether is owned by iFinex, the Hong Kong-registered company that also owns the crypto exchange BitFinex.
