  • gaga_teal_pubes Kim Logon (@gaga_teal_pubes) reported

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

  • bumaknows ⚡️Buma⚡️ (@bumaknows) reported

    @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?!

  • Jay__1337 Jay (@Jay__1337) reported

    @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.

  • johnfoss69 John Foss (@johnfoss69) reported

    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 ‘wallet maintenance’ or ‘network issues’.

  • TrillionIam TCP (@TrillionIam) reported

    @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!

  • AliceCoatRackRW Effy (@AliceCoatRackRW) reported

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

  • 21HodlChris ChristianSchmidt (@21HodlChris) reported

    @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?

  • transesportes Transesportes (@transesportes) reported

    @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.

  • segmentintender MichaelX (@segmentintender) reported

    @kurtwuckertjr @cryptoAcorns Let's say I am naked short. I supply a margin based on current price. I withdraw any margin that is over the minimum requirement. I have already made money being short. If there are no sellers it becomes Bitfinex's problem.

  • pitchb3nd Blockforce (@pitchb3nd) reported

    @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?

  • 0x_Lotion EmotionLotion (@0x_Lotion) reported

    @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?

  • tko Tommi Komulainen (@tko) reported

    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

  • m_murfy mmurfy (@m_murfy) reported

    Anyone have any insight into why Bitfinex decided to shut down their BSV margin trading market on December 12th? How is it in their interest to force close all outstanding margin positions on BSV?

  • SpenderDonald Donald Spender (@SpenderDonald) reported

  • BodgerLeges Gregory S Bledsoe, CEO Block Builder Labs (@BodgerLeges) reported

    @kurtwuckertjr Bitfinex delayed shutting down bsv shorts a week :-( might not be quite as interesting.

  • cryptomanran Ran Neuner (@cryptomanran) reported

    @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

  • treaclehall101 olivia hall (@treaclehall101) reported

    @Crypto__emily bitfinex, obviously. i can assure you because i've been trading there for years and got 0 issues - everything was as smooth as butter

  • tko Tommi Komulainen (@tko) reported

    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

  • kimchansu8 kim chansu (@kimchansu8) reported

    @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.

  • thaisleom Thais lancaster (@thaisleom) reported

    @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.

  • hrtlndbitcoin Dan (@hrtlndbitcoin) reported

    @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

  • thealpharaccoon alpha raccoon (@thealpharaccoon) reported

    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?

  • moonboys7 _Ha_yes_ (@moonboys7) reported

    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.

  • cryptocrooks 21m CryptoCrooks 🌚 (@cryptocrooks) reported

    @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 ⭕

    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’.
