Bitfinex Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Mafevents detodoymas (@Mafevents) reported

    @Cointelegraph Judging by the BTC chart on Bitfinex, $58k may become a new support level for BTC

  • BITCOINALLCAPS 🐝🇸🇻⚡BITC0IN 🐦🐦🐦 (@BITCOINALLCAPS) reported

    @adam3us @Excellion Not just institutions, but retail. If I know Bitfinex, they are gonna fractionalize these bonds and make them available for retail participants on their platform. it'll be interesting to see if other crypto exchanges support this token.

  • nkecprobz Mark Allen (@nkecprobz) reported

    @TheCryptoLark I already wrote to the Bitfinex technical support, they did not give me a clear answer

  • tequilaboycute Oscar Samuel (@tequilaboycute) reported

    @Bitfinexed Did I get it right that according to the example of Bitfinex if you help any country, invest in its future, it is considered something bad? If so, our society that thinks that way is doomed.

  • jahirgj Jahir Garcia (@jahirgj) reported

    @CoinMarketCap Binance vs. Bitfinex. which is better ?! Fix your opinion.

  • VidaDeTigre Vida de Tigre (@VidaDeTigre) reported

    @WatcherGuru i would have bought more eth - it's my biggest bag on bitfinex. **** seems ambitious

  • BitcoinRelaxshi BitcoinRelax (@BitcoinRelaxshi) reported

    @btc_chilly @adam3us @stacyherbert Bitfinex us customer

  • TheScientistB O Cientista (@TheScientistB) reported

    @paoloardoino Can i get any help with having Bitfinex release my crypto? They randomly froze my account and now are demanding private information for the release.

  • thing_of_ours1 Frank White (@thing_of_ours1) reported

    @paoloardoino @bitfinex Blow this market to ****** smithereens Paolo. Fukk it. Worthless humans deserve it. ****....

  • indykpol Michał Świtnicki (@indykpol) reported

    Hey @paoloardoino, when support for @ultra_io mainnet on @bitfinex?

  • Spyglass_Alt Spyglass (@Spyglass_Alt) reported

    @Cointelegraph Meanwhile the US still talking **** about threatens for their economics. Lol, almost everyone made their crypto policy and it's mostly accepting. And USA prohibits Bitfinex and wants to regulate stablecoins... What's wrong with this country?

  • CryptLaila laila22q8 (@CryptLaila) reported

    @Cointelegraph @cz_binance Good thing I have no problems with DOGE on Bitfinex and I can safely trade and sell it for anything

  • CuidateDelKarma CuidateDelKarma (@CuidateDelKarma) reported

    @BTCTN It's bad when a big crypto platform has a problem like this. That's why I prefer bitfinex. They never had problems like this.

  • adrianrecena #AdriánRG (@adrianrecena) reported

    @TheBlock__ @Yogita_Khatri5 India is a prime example of how the government is killing crypto. I would advise all Indian traders to switch from local crypto exchanges to Bitfinex, where rates are 15% more profitable on average, and there are no problems with liquidity

  • Via_Osmosis Via Osmosis (@Via_Osmosis) reported

    @abhiabhi444 @TechDev_52 It’s impossible to track total $ invested. I would take a guess at a 1:10 ratio. 3T valuation; maybe 300B invested. Something to learn would be market liquidity depth; that’s what matters. 42m$ worth of btc was sold a month ago in one tx, on Bitfinex. It sent btc from 59k>51k.

  • Su Su (@Su) reported

    Kinda disappointed that @nayibbukele went with @bitfinex to issue BTC bonds by El Salvador. He should probably look into @Bitfinexed and why Tether/Bitfinex ought to be avoided.

  • Den0180 Den (@Den0180) reported

    @DanielJoe916 Before the last BTC pump, I watched a lot of analysts including DavinciJ15. Nobody guessed right. Except whale Joe. No miracle - he has an insider because he is connected with Bitfinex and Tether. Search for "JoeBitfinex" in Telegram. It will help you to avoid many losses.

  • omidaladini Omid (@omidaladini) reported

    @paoloardoino @bitfinex Right, so if there is a xyz-btc and xyz-usdt and btc-usdt, and these 3 run on more than one machine, wouldn't there be either some dist lock (slow) or otherwise race condition of amending two orders at once that possibly exceed available balance?

  • TheThirdHit Transforming Machine Elf (@TheThirdHit) reported

    @DWhitmanBTC @Excellion He's wearing the Tether shirt because he knows, that Tether and Bitfinex both stand for freedom, and bitcoin, and are always working to push bitcoin forward.

  • thecrypt0god Cryptoz (@thecrypt0god) reported

    @bitfinex WHERE IS THE REST OF MY BOBA I ONLY GOT 1/3 BECUSE YOU DIDNT HAVE ENOUGH OMG? WTF

  • WillRohns Will Rohns (@WillRohns) reported

    @scottmelker Well, Bitcoin is not down, it's just on sale. I already bought some on Bitfinex. And keeping money to buy it if it's gonna dip even lower.

  • SylvainFox BEZARD SYLVAIN (@SylvainFox) reported

    @Cointelegraph I haven't used Coinbase for a long time. These problems have occurred too often. I just switched to Binance and then to Bitfinex.

  • MyMomJeans Crypto nerd (@MyMomJeans) reported

    @Cointelegraph @NewarBrian South Korea? I heard that Bitfinex is from there. Is this news about the whole crypto market or about this particular crypto site?

  • TheFansTogether The Fans Together (@TheFansTogether) reported

    @Yukiaga06 @bitfinex @bitpanda any news for this customer?

  • chyeeahhh Chyeeahhh (@chyeeahhh) reported

    @bitfinex Y’all shutting down ?

  • supriyafair supriyafair (@supriyafair) reported

    @Mikehobbiton @JacobOracle @CryptoWhale Yep, that's why I went to Bitfinex and others, Coinbase always has technical problems

  • cursilhodaIBT cursilhoIBT (@cursilhodaIBT) reported

    @binance @cz_binance You should deal with this problem. Take bitfinex for example, they never have this kind of breakdowns.

  • paoloardoino Paolo Ardoino (@paoloardoino) reported

    @omidaladini @bitfinex Yup. That's a trade-off that can actually happen (although we run our matching engine on a single 2x XEON platinum 8180M server, but we coded support for multi-machine). A user, in multi-machine setup, could go in overdraft and the system then would lazily settle the overdraft.

  • altseason21 0xMumu ⚡ (@altseason21) reported

    @AventurasCrypto @1kisfud Still didn't get an answer where this glitch is coming from. Bitfinex doesn't have any link longs.
