I think that there is no such thing like a minor phishing attack, maybe the impact of such attack was minor... but a single phishing attack can compromise all the company.

BTW Bitfinex is still in operation? WTF, Nobody should trust in a hacked CEX, not even a CEX that was victing of two idiots like The Crocodile of Wall Street and her husband
“Crocodile of Wall Street” and her husband plead guilty to giant-sized cryptocrimes

Yeah, at least though, they have acknowledge that there is such a attack on their platform though, because recently there is a alleged hack on a Philippine crypto exchange and as far as I understand, they didn't deny nor acknowledge such incidence.

Anyhow, I don't trade on Bitfinex and just like you, I'm surprised that they are still in the market as they have a bad reputation and this is not the first time that they have been hacked throughout their existence in the crypto space. It's the question whether their customers fund are "SAFU".

I wonder why anyone would trade on Bitfinex still... It's one of the exchanges with the worst reputation and historically have wronged so many people. At this point it wouldn't be too unlikely that it's just a frond for Tether and their unauthorized printing of fake USDT for money laundering.
