Bitfinex Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • onesinglepurpo1 onesinglepurpose (@onesinglepurpo1) reported

    @Domingroso If El Salvador's debt rating becomes such that they are effectively shut down from the market, then they will borrow exclusively via Bitfinex.

  • alixqureshi Ali Qureshi (@alixqureshi) reported

    In 2016, a crypto exchange known as Bitfinex got hacked, with 120k BTC stolen (est $70m, now worth $3b+). The problem is since all transactions are registered on the blockchain, it wasn’t as simple to convert the BTC into actual cash. They caught the couple behind it.

  • Louferlou LF ⚡️ (@Louferlou) reported

    @bitfinex I send sats to support people's work in the #Bitcoin community, and freedom fighters through @tallycoinapp and @HonkHonkHodl I purchase some goods online too I run a LN node to let the network a little bit more decentralized and avoid third parties wallet

  • QuarterToDate Quarter (@QuarterToDate) reported

    The fact that billions in Bitcoin were recovered from the BitFinex ‘16 hack & their token is soaring on token burn hopes: - @chainalysis & DOJ 🤝 - thieves have metaverse money laundering problems

  • PeterTLuce Peter Luce (@PeterTLuce) reported

    @cmdoerfler @EamonJavers Of course, it was Bitfinex’s fix that was the flaw (and Bitfinex’s misinterpretation of the order, and a dozen other things probably) that was the cause. But the CFTC order set the ball in motion.

  • NeilRobertson Neil Robertson (@NeilRobertson) reported

    No doubt every streaming service everywhere is getting their editing bays fired up and their documentarians lined up so their #Bitfinex hack documentary can launch ASAP. Expect a 3 part anthology of 10 episodes each covering hack, trial & follow up. Should just be an hour.

    @HeHateMe1365 Guess my joke didn't land quite right. You a Bitfinex customer?

  • CryptoEmerson CryptoEmerson (@CryptoEmerson) reported

    @cryptonator1337 For narrative yes, but still need ecosystem to support it. Ie: they traced bitfinex hack money through monero due to less private endpoints

  • JhaMurare mj murare jha (@JhaMurare) reported

    @ConcordiumNet @bitfinex The project looks promising ,but now i realized its a **** project

  • alezan111bye Phil. D. (@alezan111bye) reported

    @bitfinex In conferences to demonstrate what should not be done to solve blockchain layer one issues.

  • Jackofa68522901 Jack of all trades (@Jackofa68522901) reported

    So. Bitfinex gets hacked and Lose 71mil in bitcoin. Years later the bitcoin is 3.6bil worth, and they get it back? These hackers should get paid for this service.

  • AndyVCryptonite Yoandy VENEREO (@AndyVCryptonite) reported

    @ErikVoorhees @danheld Nope! Bitfinex and their Leo shitcoin are not getting ****!

  • Hong73527614 Hoàng (@Hong73527614) reported

    @ConcordiumNet @bitfinex Epic listing waited 7 months for this ****

  • PeterTLuce Peter Luce (@PeterTLuce) reported

    @cmdoerfler @EamonJavers Incompetent - well yeah. Bitfinex wasn’t much better than Mt Gox. No idea on complicit. I’d need to do some thinking on what benefit the company would derive from it. Maybe some others have? They lost access to US customers shortly after as well. Seems all bad to me.

  • STAvsBANTING STAvsBANTING (@STAvsBANTING) reported

    @BTCTN I have been alredy using safety defi in a well cyber protected crypto exchange "Bitfinex". My wallets have never been broken.

  • TheThirdHit Transforming Machine Elf (@TheThirdHit) reported

    @bitfinex @bitcoinlawyer Paying my kids for doing jobs round the house to their lightning wallet and buying **** on bitrefill

  • fr4nkcastl3 Bankrupt From Crypto (@fr4nkcastl3) reported

    @sirbullycrypto Okay so now that we know she didn’t hack the Bitcoin are we going to assume United States government has always been trying to bring down bitfinex?

  • PeterTLuce Peter Luce (@PeterTLuce) reported

    @cmdoerfler @EamonJavers There’s commentary from BitGo saying they didn’t recommend the structure to Bitfinex as a solution to the “actual delivery” problem, and that Bitfinex didn’t implement it correctly anyway. I need to locate. BitGo’s rep took a huge hit at the time, so it could be just deflection.

  • ErnieLies ernie luckman (@ErnieLies) reported

    The Departed but it’s about Leonardo DiCaprio undercover trying to track down the Bitfinex hack.

  • flantoshi 🍮FL₳NTOSHI🍮 (@flantoshi) reported

    @Arzhakhov58 "If you owe the bank $100, that's your problem; if you owe the bank $100 million, that's the bank's problem" Laws don't really apply if we're talking about billions of dollars hahaha. I'd think Bitfinex would've gladly waved away any charges to get the money back.

  • btcKaz PEACEFUL NONCOMPLIANCE (@btcKaz) reported

    It is not a coincidence the US Government decided to drop the news about stealing 120,000 BTC from Bitfinex only days after Bitcoiners raise over 15 BTC to support the Canadian truckers. FUD all you want. People all over the world are demanding censorship-resistant money.

  • CheffWallets 🍔Cheff $ADA pool 💧,🤝 (@CheffWallets) reported

    The alleged hackers of Bitfinex got caught paying a VPN service using stolen #bitcoin and giving their real names and addresses... I mean, this is ridiculous

  • zonefog1 ZoneFog 🍁🦅🚛 🧡🧡 (@zonefog1) reported

    @hodldeeznutz She foind old issues of Phrack became 1337 h4x0r telnetted into the mainframe. Either that someone at Bitfinex got nudes and come ons then gave up some deets. In all seriousness this is suspicious.

  • ceosolana CEO Solana (@ceosolana) reported

    @BitcoinSVtrain She is an expert social engineer. The deliberate awful rap and goofy behaviour engineered crypto Twitter to believe she's incapable of pulling off the Bitfinex hack.

  • ArteOBlanco Arte O Blanco (@ArteOBlanco) reported

    @Bitboy_Crypto They should give Bitcoin back, Bitfinex has been working on security since this happened and now it's a reliable exchange

  • CgfodHfjg hfjg (@CgfodHfjg) reported

    The setup was not designed with security in mind, but rather with regulatory arbitrage in mind: at the time bitfinex was fighting with the US Gov about their lack of financial compliance and this was an attempt to say "we do not hold customer funds so we do not have to comply."

  • mmathog Michael Mathog (@mmathog) reported

    Bitfinex is the sorta combo of Bitcoin federal reserve/market maker. If this all comes crashing down (holders can’t sell and there’s a run) because the Justice Dept won’t release the coins that rapper woman stole that will be a hilarious end to it all.

  • Angelli63445130 Angellina (@Angelli63445130) reported

    "Those files contained the private keys required to access the digital wallet that directly received the funds stolen from Bitfinex, and allowed special agents to lawfully seize and recover more than 94,000 #bitcoin  that had been stolen from Bitfinex."
