    When there were rumors that Bitfinex was having liquidity problems in October 2018, Bitfinex denied all the rumors. Bitfinex lied. New York Attorney General said Bitfinex lied. Remember this when Bitfinex & Tether claims something isn’t true. They are proven liars.

    @Tether_to Tether wants crypto to stay safe; that's why their execs hid the collapse of Crypto Capital and the liquidity problems at Bitfinex in October 2018.

  • acmecryptocorp
    Acme Crypto Corp (@acmecryptocorp) reported

    The point at issue was whether the company had tried to cover up its losses at $850 million by misrepresenting the degree to which its Tether reserves were backed by fiat collateral. According to the terms of the settlement, Bitfinex and Tether will pay the feds $18.5 million,

    Following a settlement between the New York Attorney General's office and Bitfinex and Tether, Letitia James said she she aims to "shut down Coinseed’s fraudulent operation" and warned the entire crypto industry to stay vigilant.

    @paoloardoino @udiWertheimer Paolo, Bitfinex has really big problems for new users to sign in.. I really would like to suggest you some improvements...

    @jmcorgan @adam3us @mir_btc On bitfinex , Bitfinex listed DOGE as MDOGE , one MDOGE being 1 million DOGE. If that help the mass, why not mBTC (milli Btc), which would be around 50 USD now. But then we'll have the same problem when BTC reach 1M, satoshis unit might be more judicious.

    @udiWertheimer Jemima Kelly (FT) is right on one error by Citi - mixing up basis points and percentages related to credit card fraud. her core message is rehashing FUD on #Bitcoin and Tether. of course Bitfinex made one big mistake in the past - Ms Kelly insinuates there is still no collateral

    @russmonk Oh at last someone who gets it. One question: how did Tether manage to issue 350M USDT over a 100+ day period when nobody bought USDT and Bitfinex got only two incoming wires?

    @CryptoGooseEsq @SBF_Alameda Yea, once Wells Fargo cut them off. They (Tether/Bitfinex) have survived while continuously being under attack from the banking establishment and governments all over the world. That's the real source of their problems from everything I have read so far.

    @h3avyplastic they do it all the time. people just ignore it. NYAG is not backing down despite not winning a recent settlement with iFinex-Bitfinex-Tether. I think techincally that's part of why New York can not trade Crypto is cause Tether is not allowed.

    Bennett Tomlin (@BennettTomlin) reported

    The intrabank transfer could be completed quickly and with a minimal of problems, especially at a bank that was started by the cofounder of Tether. From Bitfinex perspective they had just a small accounting adjustment, and from tethers perspective they were getting the funds owed

    $btc current PA reminds me of jan bottoms, where we had every reason to dump, structure was absolute dogshit and abused from tests but we had this slow, choppy grind down because tesla was accumulating. inb4 institution announces buys through bitfinex.

    @congoose1 one of my main scenario would be a retest of like 48.6~~ and then a last dip down to like 40k, and if bitfinex whale want to paint it like that, then it wouldnt be psy-ops but cant be sure obviously

    So much happens in 1 week. Help us write 3 things we learned about centralized finance this week: 1. infra like fed wire can go down 2. $18m cash, a low price tag for @bitfinex to get official "audit" services rendered by a US state gov agency. 3. <fill in the blank, hbu?>

    @SantiagoAuFund @coloradotravis @nope_its_lily Ok - Coinbase and their USDC may find that information of use or the people who are dumb enough to hold large amounts of usdt. If Bitfinex were to go down, the only thing it would give is some really legendary buying opportunities. It makes zero difference in the long run of BTC.

    @KyleSGibson @jp_koning @CoinDesk It definitely does mention other issues: "Tether routinely diverted customer funds towards ... a potentially non-recoverable claim on Crypto Capital Corp, a fraudulent third-party payments processor, and a risky loan to an affiliate company, Bitfinex."

    $20k: double top forming, see ya in 3 years bull cucks $30k: this is unsustainable. You gotta be stupid to buy this high $42k: punting my 150th short since $10k. See ya on my island, bull cucks $58k: next leg down, it's over. Plus, Bitfinex/Tether had to pay a huge fine

    @cryptorebel_SV Stop being paranoid, Bitfinex has few volume. The problem of Bsv is not shorts but horrible branding because of toxic leader and community. Nobody wants to deal with these kind of peoples, you really should change your attitude and be more positive. Basic rule of business & life.

    @StockLizardKing I figured this was in response to Tether and Bitfinex. He did shut Bitfinex down and for good reason. Anyone openly trying to deceive in the crypto community hurts everyone in it.
