@thales21m @bitfinex @MuunWallet It is a cryptographic protocol after all. It got developed for Bitcoin because the Bitcoin L1 is just too slow and expensive by todays standards. There are a variety of other reasons why I do not believe in Bitcoin anymore.

@cmdoerfler @EamonJavers There’s commentary from BitGo saying they didn’t recommend the structure to Bitfinex as a solution to the “actual delivery” problem, and that Bitfinex didn’t implement it correctly anyway. I need to locate. BitGo’s rep took a huge hit at the time, so it could be just deflection.

@austinhill @bitfinex Yes, indeed. BFX is like no other site in terms of customer contact. In principle, similar situations that occurred with other exchanges confirm it

@cmdoerfler @EamonJavers Of course, it was Bitfinex’s fix that was the flaw (and Bitfinex’s misinterpretation of the order, and a dozen other things probably) that was the cause. But the CFTC order set the ball in motion.

@cryptonator1337 For narrative yes, but still need ecosystem to support it. Ie: they traced bitfinex hack money through monero due to less private endpoints

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."

Linus Behrbohm
(@linusbehrbohm) reported
@thales21m @bitfinex @MuunWallet It is unnecessarily slow, as modern blockchains prove, and Proof of Work has some security flaws. It promotes centralization in mining pools and an attacker doesn't lose their investment when they overtake the network, so it is economically feasible to attack a PoW network.

(@PeterTLuce) reported
@cmdoerfler @EamonJavers Incompetent - well yeah. Bitfinex wasn’t much better than Mt Gox. No idea on complicit. I’d need to do some thinking on what benefit the company would derive from it. Maybe some others have? They lost access to US customers shortly after as well. Seems all bad to me.

Bitfinex is the sorta combo of Bitcoin federal reserve/market maker. If this all comes crashing down (holders can’t sell and there’s a run) because the Justice Dept won’t release the coins that rapper woman stole that will be a hilarious end to it all.

(@cauchickrenan) reported
@danheld Recent events showed that Bitfinex reacts quickly to situations like that to prevent this from happening in the future. With the help of the US government the stolen funds were found. The only thing left to do is to wait for the funds to be returned to their owners.

@DefichainV @defichain I don't see this as a problem. If you don't have billions stolen from Bitfinex or another exchange, no one cares about you.

PEACEFUL NONCOMPLIANCE
(@btcKaz) reported
It is not a coincidence the US Government decided to drop the news about stealing 120,000 BTC from Bitfinex only days after Bitcoiners raise over 15 BTC to support the Canadian truckers. FUD all you want. People all over the world are demanding censorship-resistant money.

@Domingroso If El Salvador's debt rating becomes such that they are effectively shut down from the market, then they will borrow exclusively via Bitfinex.

In 2016, a crypto exchange known as Bitfinex got hacked, with 120k BTC stolen (est $70m, now worth $3b+). The problem is since all transactions are registered on the blockchain, it wasn’t as simple to convert the BTC into actual cash. They caught the couple behind it.
