Bitfinex is offering a reward to help catch and prosecute the hackers: http://www.coindesk.com/bitfinex-6000-btc-bounty-stolen-bitcoin

I wish them luck, but doubt their chances are very good at tracking the thieves down.

it's a joke. it's a theft not a hack
This is really a theft. For many sources and forums people say about it. A bitfinex still wants to attract many customers, and probably to rob again.

Don't expect that bitfinex will work again as before its already bean hack and looks like they are trying to get their loses..
Better to withdraw your funds there if you are still have some.. and dont expect to other coins to get it back..
Just bye bye to that site never comeback again..

OK, Bitfinex is supposedly back up and processing withdrawals after the "haircut". Are withdrawals happening promptly?

Obvously, you want to withdraw everything you can immediately and never deposit anything again.

you will be amazed of how many will continue to use them

Their hot wallet has been emptied with withdrawals. The transaction to replenish it appears to be unconfirmed at present.

And now in CNN they are giving out fake news and making it look as if every bitcoin owner ever is going to get a haircut due the bitfinex bailin scandal. Man those exchanges are going to keep fucking us over all the time as it happens again and again and we still dont have decentralized alternatives.

Such is life. When something about happened people will start creating some ridiculous news in other to get popular or have more money in their pocket. We gotta do something ourself concerning the exchanger mess up thing.

if they had 90% BTC Offline cold storage this would not have happened, are people seriously that dumb. Stuff your tokens Btc is what we want tokens are for toking on because you got all the BTC. Sound like Bitstamp shut down lots of accounts took their funds like stealing stole BTC and sent it all to bitfinex to try to camoflauge it. And open multiple accounts from all the Bitstamp KYC policy send verification while they blackmail your deposits, trading with your money making money from your loss. And they try to pretend to be russian but from the grammar they use when they speak they are not suka bleyt at all no nordcore radio, no kotzaak nothing. i can tell in the name spelling they dont grasp english grammar properly and spell their russian looking names with indian spelling because they never bothered to learn another language they are so lazy.
When bitstamps volume decreassed bitfinex when through the roof all that BTC had to go somewhere. And they release customers private verification details to US federal marshals and seize bitcoin accounts later selling the accounts to the federal marshals afters they made big profits trading the stolen BTC.
The silk road BTC stolen from phishing and idiots laptop coz he's to lazy to type the url in the address bar in firefox to prevent this google phishing attack. is still full, the turned 8,999.00568663 BTC into 27,000 bitcoin multiple times.
https://blockchain.info/address/167ZWTT8n6s4ya8cGjqNNQjDwDGY31vmHg
i posted this on twitter and they got the shits, they turned off the blockchain and wallet access for KORECOIN that i was trading at the time for likr 300-900 satoshi it then went upto 64000 satoshi, they tried to kill the coin and get it off the market i ended up selling the coin and losing so that they would stop trying to kill the coin. i kept Korecoin alive from last Dec to march16 this year cost me over 10 bitcoin to maintain trading the coin, i had about 60,000 Korecoin but then just dumped it all because someone accused me of being a scam. check my korecoin account address, i can post the CSV tx orderd if you like.
Im not at war with us federal marshals. I will kill anyone who tries to do wrong by me. Or closer to haydes then the minotaur can lurk.
when sites get hacked they still sell some BTC on there thats left for like $50- $150 a coin as compensation.
Why did bitfinex turn BTC trading into stock market type trading? stocks are worthless.
they cant get rid of stocks cheap enough because corporations buy complete towns to kick out all small local business.
if you cant access bitfinex webby try using the app on your phone. Bitstamp, played with my account so i couldnt access my funds, crashed my firefox with a script lucky i had the app, i just logged on the AP API said heres your account withdraw bang 30 seconds they didnt have time to mess my transactions up. However you want it you can have it your way.....If you fvck up my night i'm going to fvck up your day!
If the Us federal marshals want to sell that 8999 BTC they should sell it for 60,000 USD 90% off retail, i'll buy it from you before our aussie dollar goes back up to 99 cents to the dollar you should sell it and i can make and exchange that trades in a dozen old coins no new coins no IPO no stake BS, the miners stake the coin when the wallet mines currency while it has coins in it and is active. Atleast i'd run an exchange site that doesnt rip off the hard work the miners and traders learn. Ive had 7 bitcoin dissapper infront me i check the logs and there at that time so many ftc sold for 6.1 plus 0.7 BTC worth of feathercoin. Those blue arrows on the side of the website buy all the trades but caluate wrong, i read the summary after i counted the sumarry from the tables live so twice i calculate how much coin for how much BTC i will get. if i sell FTC at a 3000 FTC loss every trade 10times thats 30,000 FTC lost due to selling at a price higher then i payed for not 7 BTC. I explained the error and the bug in their software and they a quiet happy that i lost BTC and they gained from my lose. made me throw the 12 BTC left over onto a casino that wouldnt pay jackpots i noticed lol spend 17 BTC winning easily 40-50 BTC and not getting a 5 or a 9 bitcoin jackpot lol.

just wait to see how bitfinex token is going over 1 USD. customers will get a refund and bitfinex will make some more money!

What incentive would a non bagholder have to buy it? I find it bizarre how they've rolled it out without being clear about timings and obligations. No one knows enough about it.

I suppose that never stopped brainless pump and dumpers before. For those who lost out's sake I hope it does go the moon for no particular reason.

Its simple. Who have much bitfinex tokens? The Bitfinex whales! They will not sale until price is over 1 USD! Its like an ICO. 1USD entry price!

who will buy shit tokens and where do you see their price?

Exactly bitfinex will do anything to get back their losses, and as always it happened, they would do it at the expense of customers. The first thing is not to lose those that have, the second is to attract new, and in the third sell bitcoin only when the price rises.

i open my account in Bitfinex

now trading platform is up again.

but something fishy is, the BTC/USD price is 612 USD, while other is under 600 USD?
and the price is keep rising Huh Huh Huh

whos doing that?
are they doing by themself to get new investor??

i think if there are normal people, they will sell their coin when the price is above other market like stamp, huobi etc
and prepare for withdraw all their money

This will keep happening again and again, the only solution is a decentralized exchange so no single point of failure exist...

I don't believe this would be permitted to happen with places like Gemini, Itbit and Coinfloor.

Anyone with a few minutes to google would quickly work out that Bitfinex is no different than all the other piece of shit Bitcoin companies of the past.

No regulation, check. Murky beginnings, check. Lack of communication, check. Uncertain jurisdiction, check. Pisspoor track record for stability, check

if the people will still use Bitfinex, they are really idiots and they will deserve to lose all their funds Smiley

no one deserves to lose their coins, but even more important, if turns out that the owners somehow are involved, then it's even more stupid to keep using that exchange. i personally would directly withdraw all funds from that exchange and never look back. but i'm sure people will still be using that exchange.
