The network access in this airport lounge is so insecure that even the Bitfinex suspects would be seeing red flags

@paoloardoino Reading this and It seems both BitGo and Bitfinex got played in some sort of SE that eventually led to escalated access. Looking forward to the postmortem

@BanklessHQ No not bullish, bullshit really. They need to give that **** back to the people that lost it in Bitfinex. It does not belong to the government and they better not keep it. The moment they decide they want to keep it, we in the crypto community would have to protest that!

@haydentiff @bitfinex The thing is, the thieves didn't steal $71m, they stole 120k BTC. The property that was stolen should be returned. If it had gone down in value then there's restitution to make up the shortfall, however, the dollar value is inconsequential.

Considering that Bitfinex already compensated the people that had their BTC stolen and Bitfinex will be getting the BTC back at BILLIONS over what they paid in compensation I can see the people that took the compensation suing the **** out Bitfinex in in greed.

@alexhern Isn't it usually down to centralization or flimsy smart contracts? e.g. Bitfinex was hacked, Bitcoin never has been. Mt Gox was hacked, Uniswap hasn't been. Not sure it's fair to say neither of those will improve. Why wouldn't they?

The DOJ seizure of the $2.5B plus worth of #Bitcoin from stolen Bitfinex exchange is going to be a headwind for $BTC price. Increasing the supply by 1.5% liquidated onto the market will have down side pressure for its price.

(@ODELL) reported
The setup was not designed with security in mind, but rather with regulatory arbitrage in mind: at the time bitfinex was fighting with the US Gov about their lack of financial compliance and this was an attempt to say "we do not hold customer funds so we do not have to comply."

@bitfinex @paoloardoino So you needed the government, that BTC and crypto are supposed to take power away from, to use their power to help you recover what was supposed to already be more secure than fiat, because your own security sucked? Let me have some of that shiite your smoking.

@Mr_589_ @BanklessHQ The money belongs to the ppl that lost it in Bitfinex. Gov should not use it, they would be stealing from us. The national debt is the governments problem, not ours.

@dougboneparth @laughingmantwit probably the husband did or he had at least access to the private keys(and so the funds). he might have been "tech savy", exploited a hole in the bitfinex security sytem or he somehow saw the private keys and copied paste lol

If you're gonna finesse Bitfinex or whatever platform, don't withdraw that much money to ... *sigh* ... become a terrible white lady rapper.

your #1 source for absurdist true crime 🐍👑 🌷
(@davidgerard) reported
In 2016, Bitfinex kept customer funds segregated in their own multi-signature blockchain addresses. Access needed two of three keys held by Bitfinex, BitGo and the customer. BitGo had built an API for Bitfinex to use - not public, only the two companies knew about it. 2/8

@cz_binance Didn’t Tether loan Bitfinex funds to cover the loss? Shouldn’t the seized BTC go to Tether to help mitigate that time bomb?

(@21Millones_BTC) reported
@newskhool @GoingParabolic Read the victims were already made whole in USD converted at time of hack. So if this is true, then the BTC belongs to Bitfinex, minus the “fees” incurred by US government. Now, Bitfinex owners control Tether which had issues w/ CFTC so unsure if that changes the dynamic a bit…

@cryptomanran Why the Hell does the US Government get the assets? Bitfinex is a foreign company and not Headquartered in the US. Also, how did they seize the Bitcoin? They have some new technology that we don't know about getting them access to the Keys
