Bitfinex Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • FRNT_Financial FRNT Financial (@FRNT_Financial) reported

    @StephOFRNT in @BNNBloomberg: “Last night there was a huge arb,” he said, adding that “everything at Tether and Bitfinex appears to be working as usual. There’s no indication anything has going wrong besides the market move, which is now looking like it was circumstantial"

  • jeffreyt1981 jeffreyt1981 (@jeffreyt1981) reported

    @ColinTCrypto If $usdt unpegs you may see a collapse that makes $luna look like a blip. I thought when Bitfinex was under investigation $usdt was going down, since it’s the same ownership group. Could be used by the powers that be at some point to take crypto down. Ace in the hole

  • niquedegraaff Nique de Graaff (@niquedegraaff) reported

    @geoffre51470987 @MMCrypto That's what the attackers (Blackrock, Citadel) want you to think. They want retail to go full panic sell USDT because they can't bring it down own their own. This causes a supply increase of USDT on exchanges and little depegging on those exchanges. But BITFINEX:UST/USD is fine!

  • DjinnDrip 🌛DjinnDrip🌜 (@DjinnDrip) reported

    @GeorgeTosounid1 @austerity_sucks A spokesperson for Bitfinex and Tether has said that the CEO of both firms is Jan Ludovicus van der Velde.[27][28] According to Tether's website, the Hong Kong-based Tether Limited is a fully owned subsidiary of Tether Holdings Limited.

  • KPHouston24 KP (@KPHouston24) reported

    @DoombergT God get some basic information and stop following garbage accounts like Bitfinex’d. You can’t move crypto to self custody until your deposit final settles. This is because they have no recourse once you move the crypto off exchange.

  • CryptoWhale CryptoWhale (@CryptoWhale) reported

    @cryptolegacy20 I would've assumed so had it not happened on multiple exchanges such as Binance and Bitfinex as well. Also, an API issue like this just days after the collapse of another stable coin is very coincidental, and suspicious, I would say the chances are very slim.

    @paoloardoino @bitfinex Help a 20 year old achieve her dreams please send 1 bitcoin please Help a 20 year old achieve his dreams please send 1 bitcoin please… Network:BTC Deposit adress:113jfzuSgWpEP5uCbBjvLTGnQeEmiSfRyf

  • eugllionaire Eugene (@eugllionaire) reported

    @LidoOnTerra I have been unable to withdraw/deposit UST and LUNA on any exchange (tried binance, bitfinex, and kraken)--really frustrating since support just says to wait

  • thelukepryor Luke Pryor - High Priest Of Bcash (@thelukepryor) reported

    do kwon talked too much **** and the bitfinex tether cabal pulled his card

  • Guru_BCUBE Guruprasad Venkatesha (@Guru_BCUBE) reported

    @bitfinex is a massive exchange having hundreds of billions of dollars in reserves. They won’t allow it to go down. IMHO it won’t fail so easily. Small price variation shouldn’t be an issue. So nothing alarming to be at the moment. I still have $USDT (2/3)

  • FRNT_Financial FRNT Financial (@FRNT_Financial) reported

  • DesoGames Deso, God of Vision #Silversqueeze #Lentilsqueeze (@DesoGames) reported

    @graemeblake No you're correct. Hell you don't even need to go that deep. A simple conclusion that "arbitrage is broken" - which it needs to be for Bitfinex to go up while Kraken goes down - suffices to indicate problems. It's not enough for the situation to stabilize. It needs to improve.

  • dogeldoge dogeldoge (@dogeldoge) reported

    @ashwsbreal Binance fixed the limit problem for $LUNA - it is allowed to buy 9 million $LUNA at once instead of 90 000 till one hour. Now the crush will end when Whales will be able to buy enogh. Next is @bitfinex that still limited they $LUNA Buys to 50000 only.

  • CryptoWizardd THEWIZARD ( beware scammers ) (@CryptoWizardd) reported

    @paoloardoino @bitfinex Probably down

  • daa_llc Jpegjunkie (@daa_llc) reported

    @ysong00_nft It’s literally dragging the whole market down but the whales on bitfinex and extremely long right now.

  • SiegfriedHedge1 Siegfried the Hedgehog (@SiegfriedHedge1) reported

    @Bitfinexed It just seems like the accusations against Coinbase (shilling, wash trading, keeping airdrops) are orders of magnitude less serious than the accusations against eg Bitfinex. Is there any indication Coinbase ever took customer funds for themselves? Genuinely curious.

  • QuantInMayfair TheMerovingian (@QuantInMayfair) reported

    If #USDT doesn't depeg, I promise to use all my brain juice to help @bitfinex

  • ShireHODL Shire (@ShireHODL) reported

    - Luna/UST unraveling - Kraken issues with balances & withdrawals - Coinbase issues with balances & withdrawals - Bitfinex - massive longs and USDT previously to 94 cents 🤔

  • BiIboSV Bilboˢᵛ (@BiIboSV) reported

    @m_murfy Not doubting the BTC should come down to the POC but I think the BSV Volume POC is fairly irrelevant. Pretty much everything has to die before BSV can do anything. There are too many enemies. All those folks like iFinex (Tether, Bitfinex), Coinbase, etc have too much to lose

  • pleb_anon Fat Cat (@pleb_anon) reported

    @insiliconot Ser what’s happening on bitfinex. USDT dumping. Finex btc trading 1000 dollars above coinbase. finex longs all time high. finex shorts going up super high. Their buys walls are getting demolished all the way down. armageddon started?

  • nibhals nicole panicat (@nibhals) reported

    @TheMoonCarl Man, that's awful... I just recently started buying it on Bitfinex and thank god I didn't buy much at the previous price.

  • GooseStanding Standing Goose (@GooseStanding) reported

    @tienne_e @bitfinex I have never felt so confident about a marked prediction, btc is going down and people are going to get liquidated.

  • CryptoEdgar_ Crypto.Edgar (@CryptoEdgar_) reported

    4/ * Issues with potential ties with @bitfinex. Many of the directors at #USDT are in fact also directors at the exchange * Has been able to keep the $1 peg extremely well which helped their success * ERC-20 token * Centralised

  • ekimris Mike (@ekimris) reported

    @apinttoomany @IncomeSharks I hear you. I've been watching and tweeting about USDT for a few days since UST started wobbling. Tether depegging was bad last night. Next time it tanks, sub 20k, maybe sub 10k. And the US gov might keep the bitfinex hack BTCs after closing bitfinex down.

  • CryptoReda REDA (@CryptoReda) reported

    Also please for christsake stop comparing a pile of **** called $ust with $usdt. Bitfinex whales are the only ones that can say that their size is actually real size. Take a break and let everything play out. Dont make irrational moves on the middle of a capitulation event.

  • enchiridion47 JaylaCrypto (@enchiridion47) reported

    Bitfinex whales buying whatever it’s all fugazi respect the pumps but we all know this **** is gonna continue grinding lower as this year plays out

  • mattverse2 Matt Park (@mattverse2) reported

    @dsrvlabs_jiyun What do you think about the approach on ******* UST to a point below a dollar, say $0.5 or $0.2 and issue a future IOU, as of what Bitfinex did?

  • mazuretsky Alex Mazur (@mazuretsky) reported

    @LucioMM1 (according to their report - they claim $1 on 1 USDT but some of it is 'commercial paper' or some **** like that which many suspect to be Bitfinex loans)

  • yaneholers Yane (@yaneholers) reported

    @TheMoonCarl unfortunately anything can happen but 1 btc in my bitfinex portfolio calms me down too
