Yeah, he doesn't have the greatest history. Also defended Pirat40's scheme in its heyday.

Still, I think he has an ownership interest in Bitfinex and was one of its founders, but I don't think he is a C-level executive. My recollection is that he used to be CEO in the very early days. Past that, I don't know anything.

He did more than that, he ran a PPT under the nick Patrick Harnett. Mircea Popescu outed him on Trilema. All the same scumbags keep coming back to fleece the Bitcoin community over and over again. Bitcoin is becoming the longest running con in human history.

Any more info on the Harnett line?

Also here is the Dutch current CEO: https://twitter.com/eigerlaw/status/676692310168481792

You would all be wise to look up the symbolic symbolism of the raccoon.

Very fitting explanation for the unfortunate events that just took place.

If that is really the person behind Bitfinex then it's strange you represent yourself that way. With such picture how could people ever think he is really serious with his company. Not really a way how you attract other people on LinkedIn.

Maybe he will tell you to take down his profile pic and linkdin profile for security reasons. Roll Eyes

This is him. He hasn't been on here for a few months. If I were him I probably wouldn't be too into interacting with other users on here right now.

Raphael Nicolle was a man. Yes a big man.
With an eye like an eagle and as tall as a mountain was he.
Raphael Nicolle was a man. Yes a big man.
He was brave, he was fearless and as tough as the mighty Satoshi.

From the coonskin cap on the top of ol Ralph to the heel of his rawhide shoe
The rippin'est roarin'est fightin'est man the crypto frontier ever knew.

Raphael Nicolle was a man. Yes a big man.
And he fought for Crypto to make all Cryptonerds free.
