  • rafacote13 Rafa Merino (@rafacote13) reported

    @TheBitcoinConf Even from Bitfinex? Never had problems with this exchange.

  • etherbalance ChaosElephant (@etherbalance) reported

    @Bighippo66 @IIICapital Blockstream, DCG, Bitfinex (iFinex, tether); share the same funding and use the same tactics: censorship, astroturfing and disinformation. All focused on desperately diverting attention away from the one working cryptocurrency that is capable to wipe out the banks: #BitcoinCash.

    @bitfinex Does not one person help in this world? I need it for my mother's treatment

    @BitcoinMagazine It seems to me that if it were not for the help of Tether and bitfinex, all this would not have happened

    . @bitfinex matching engine update. I've been working on some deep optimisations to further reduce latency: - 66% less messages (reusing same data streams more heavily) - tradable balance calcs speedups (3x) - reduced significantly memory usage - increased multicast coverage

    @WhalesMetaverse Shilling you $LEO a token that supports bitfinex community. This will sure not going to let you down

  • MrSNARK_io Mr. SNARK (@MrSNARK_io) reported

    Since the chain is being forked, Tether has to decide which chain they will support the redemption of USDT for fiat USD on, since they cannot support both. The problem is both Tether & Bitfinex are closely affiliated with and influenced by the Asian community.

  • CampanadeTudela Campana de Tudela D. (@CampanadeTudela) reported

    @BitcoinMagazine I think a lot of businesses will also be attracted, there are projects to support small businesses with Bitfinex, all this attracts tourists of course

    @davidzmorris Wait is ETHPoW currently speculative like the fork tokens Bitfinex did during the block size war?

  • sangye Rurry Mothbard -- technical broseph (@sangye) reported

    @ApeDurden Totally agree but on Bitfinex it's more like just absorbing shorts so most of the pressure to break the support seems to come from other exchanges ... it's that choppy thing that helps alt trades move more intensely

  • MrSNARK_io Mr. SNARK (@MrSNARK_io) reported

    Tether & Bitfinex: Tether is the largest stablecoin issuer and Bitfinex is a large centralized exchange. Both need to make a choice when considering supporting the PoW chain. It is easier for Bitfinex because they can support both, but Tether needs to make a tough choice.

  • Blackstone_fr Blackstone.neo ⚡️ 576 (@Blackstone_fr) reported

    @lockyer83 Used to be Kraken for exchange Fiat to coins. And Bitfinex for trade. But, it's a shame, kraken doesn't support Neo for now (because of gas). Also both of them, are bulletproof and oldy. ((ps: avoid and never use leverage.))

  • hindenbear 🎈🐻 (@hindenbear) reported

    @jp_koning How are you this credulous? They've also been claiming to be working on an actual audit since 2017 (2016 counting Bitfinex). Their most recent claim to be working with a "big 12 firm" is absurd, and that came a year after Stu claimed they were within months of an audit.

  • ItsMrWallace Tensa Gizzla (@ItsMrWallace) reported

    @dt43jji @MoonLamboio How would it get to $20...quick example...Ripple wins the lawsuit or settles...XRP is no longer seen as potentially a security...the bitfinex index has to buy millions of it...mass fomo happens...$20 XRP. Make sense?! Now plz explain how this is impossible....?

  • Cagivos Crypto_Cag (@Cagivos) reported

    @MMCrypto Why? Only thing i can think off: Mt.Gox selloff, bitfinex selloff, Saylor stepping down, greyscale selling BTC on discount, recurring inflation bugs, no gains for 5 year hodlers, goverment teardown on proof of work, expensive hw and electricity to secure it. Only bullish on $HEX

  • fredudoteth Fredu.eth (@fredudoteth) reported

    @udiWertheimer @PeterMcCormack I mean isnt this kinda similar to how the feds got their hands on the bitfinex hack couples btc? The seed phrases were stored on a centralized server and that’s why they were ”compromised”. It’s not that btc or sol failed. The seed phrases were not properly stored or secured.
