Bitfinex Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Tony Velasco (@Tony_Afterburn) reported@foxy_blocks @seldo Im pretty sure you are correct, but I don't think that's the issue. Its if they are printing tethers simply so they can buy more bitcoin, then sell the bitcoin, then transfer the money back into their account. Them being Bitfinex etc
-
Crypto Khan (@TheCryptoKhan) reported@radixdlt @bitfinex I don’t see the issue you have? It looks perfectly clear? It went live when bitfinix said it would. Radix tweeted at least 3 times in the lead up. It was pinned to the top of their account for a week, it was alll over telegram. What exactly did you want to happen?
-
Richard Lawrence (@TheRealRichL124) reported@NewYorkStateAG @Tr0llyTr0llFace @davidgerard Ms James..Glad you are cracking down on that Tether/ Bitfinex scam! 👍
-
markdono (@markdono) reported@coloradotravis This is way simpler than everyone is thinking. Tether is backed by cash and other non-cash assets the key one being the bitfinex loan. If you think the loan is solid backing no big story here. if not there's a problem. Was the loan legal in the first place? NYAG will weigh in.

cody (@cody75700594) reported@APompliano Pomp shilling the bitcoin trap to newbies in the crypto market; when he knows of all its obvious shortcomings and inefficiencies. Chinese controlled Tether ponzi scheme Tether vs bitfinex lawsuit POW electricity usage Double spend possible 2% own 98% Open to 51% attack Slow Fees
-
ama8999 (@ama8999) reported@cryptoburnerac1 But wait, maybe you mean the one on the extreme right. If I'm not wrong Bitfinex moved its $ETH to another wallet not yet labeled by Cryptoquant. That's why it's showing as an outflow. If I find the link I'll attach it down here
-
Al Kotov (@kotov_in) reported@bitfinex Down. $btc is absolutely useless
-
Mixmaster Hash (@hashamadeus) reported@paoloardoino @bitfinex take it down
-
stefan weixelbaumer (@weixelbaumer) reported@bitfinex then further down
-
Eric Ervin (@eervin1) reported@svrnco @NateGeraci Trying to refute these is a bit like trying to argue with all the $TSLAQ folks or the #ETF = "weapons of mass destruction" people. Don't get me wrong, Bitfinex and Tether have definitely had issues over the years but most of these these are seriously overblown.
-
Banjooie (@CocoaEyebrows) reported@odriano1 @Tr0llyTr0llFace Yeah, I'm confused too. I expect Bitfinex/Tether to go down, but, uh, not yet, by any means, they found another delay tactic.
-
Chris on Crypto (@ChrisOnCrypto1) reportedYou find out which platforms are worth your money when activity picks up on an exchange. For example, Coinbase, cryptocom and Binance literally shut down when volumes pick up. They are bad exchanges. By contrast, Bitfinex never goes down.
-
Doc (@Docta_Holliday) reported@SBF_Alameda @binance @bitfinex has the best UI / UX by a magnitude of.. infinity. It’s not even close. That said, FTX is a far better exchange. The UX / UI is so, so, so terrible though.

jsjj (@jsjj02010318) reported@bitfinex Polkdot.1 High rental fees 2 No autonomous security and sovereignty 3 Unsustainable project scale vicious blood-sucking competition. cosmos 1 Low cost for normal use 2 Universal blockchain protocol 3 Sovereignty and safety fault tolerance guarantee normal power, and power down
-
Michelle Lucey (@chemille01lucey) reported@Velasfounder why use @Bitfinex as exchange partner with all their issues. There are hundreds of swap platforms open taking a mere 3 seconds to do conversions. Your help team wont have to lie to coverup a 56 hour wait for a conversion to take place.
-
Tadeusz @tadeusz@bitcoinhackers.org (@tpuzniakowski) reported@Evan_ss6 @crypto @roomofsatoshi It works, but it is not as easy as we would like it to be. The biggest problem is routing and channel balancing. I am using it to move funds to Bitfinex, but there are always some problems when the channel is almost empty - my peers don't have enough output capacity to forward it
-
will.i.am (@leveritas) reported@TishJames Dear @NewYorkStateAG It's time to go after the #Bitfinex #Tether scammers and shut them down for good.
-
Kaushal Patel (@KPHouston24) reported@markdono @coloradotravis Most people don’t understand that NYAG lawsuit is to stop Tether from making loans to Bitfinex not to stop tether from issuing USDT. Since Bitfinex is financially stable currently this is non issue.
-
Thox (@Hox36) reported@bitfinex @john_j_brown Find a way to shut down your BTC/tether Manipulation scheme
-
Satoshi Spawn 🛸🌒 (@BusHodl) reported@CryptoMaje @JacobOracle Maybe...they’d shut down Bitfinex, but people could flood DEX’s and facilitate the trade since TUSD is on Eth.
-
will.i.am (@leveritas) reported@NewYorkStateAG Dear @TishJames it's time to shut down the #Bitfinex #Tether #Bitcoin scam, we are all counting on you to do it as soon as possible, they're scamming people especially new investors
-
mosfetti (@mosfetti) reported@bitfinex charts are not updating. fix it
-
will.i.am (@leveritas) reported@NewYorkStateAG Dead @TishJames it's time to shut down the #Bitfinex #Tether #Bitcoin scam, we are all counting on you to do it as soon as possible
-
Giovanni Sabbagh (@GiovanniSabb) reported@bitfinex Way down
-
Daniel (@daniel4055) reported@bitfinex 33-34 imo, unless another scare drops to 28.5 resist again weak hands are playing into minerd's plans unfortunately, he wouldnt be planning to go in if he thought it was going down, but he wanted to avoid paying 30-40
-
💺Armchair Crypto Trader💸 (@Ilikedtolurk) reported@diaryrektman @ha1331 @bitfinex Where are these fabled weekend Tethers though? I haven't seen a new Tether in a long time. What went down the 15th of January? I mean, what really happened? Inquiring minds would love to know.
-
₿0₿ Godwin (@bobgodwinx) reported@bitfinex we’re going to have a short rally to resistance level of 35k but what happens there depends on the volume because miners are selling heavily. #Bitcoin recent pullback is manipulated 2 keep price down. We might still see a dips to 30k afterwards or it go to 40k #Mission100kBTC
-
Raj Patel (@abp0824) reported@_lonedd @APompliano Crypto Capital accounts are frozen the transfer never happened it's just a entry in the ledger. Now Bitfinex is down $1.475 billion. For Pomp to assume its 1:1 now is just foolish 2/2
-
Raj Patel (@abp0824) reported@BennettTomlin I see after reading the bloomberg article and the information you provided. Bitfinex actually is down $1.4 billion. $850 frozen in Crypto Captial account and the $625 borrowed from tether’s deltec account. Is that right?
