How long withdrawals usually take ? Last time a few months back Bitfinex's ETH "processing" before transaction took about 2 hours.

Now XRP withdrawal has been under "processing" like 3 hours or so. Just curious, not really complaining (yet)...

cheers

edit: it took 7½ hours to get those ripples moving...  Roll Eyes  kind of eats the idea of quick handling of value. i mean 15mins would ok, but this hours long waiting...  Undecided

Where did hogner say that the lawyer had access since March?

Tether doesn’t print USDT on a whim, they print it based on demand. They didn’t just stop printing USDT, the demand for additional USDT is not there.

It is interesting to see that the outstanding USDT are indeed backed as of June 1st, but stating
that Tether/BFX cannot have sold Bitcoin (or other cryptos) in advance is either disingenuous or a blatant
case of a non sequitur.

Even you must admit that the lack of evidence that any Tethers were ever 'printed' without being fully backed is making the whole conspiracy theory look very silly now.

It is important to note that this date was chosen by the law firm and tether did not know the date the bank balance was confirmed until after the fact. This means tether/Bitfinex cannot have sold bitcoin in order to raise sufficient USD to prepare to have their balance match on that date.

Yes, that is completely impossible, Quickseller!

Oh, wait:

But Hoegner said the law firm had "unfettered access" to Tether's bank balances beginning in March,
even though the report only addresses the balances of one day.

So basically the law firm only had access to data from March to June. This is precisely the period where the
Tether "FUD" was at a low level and Tether refrained from issuing hundreds of millions of USDT every few days.

The much more relevant and interesting time period before March (e.g. March 2017 - February 2018) has been
completely omitted.

It is interesting to see that the outstanding USDT are indeed backed as of June 1st, but stating
that Tether/BFX cannot have sold Bitcoin (or other cryptos) in advance is either disingenuous or a blatant
case of a non sequitur.

Standard example of a non sequitur:
1. The universe has had a beginning.
2. Therefore it also must have an end!!

The Quickseller non sequitur in question:
1. All USDT are backed as of June 1st, 2018.
2. Therefore Tether/Bitfinex cannot have sold any Bitcoin to prepare for the balances to match!!

Why does the LTC withdrawal take so much time? I have to wait for 3-5 hours at least

Well, on June 1st USDT was fully backed 1-1 and more according to a prestigious law firm contracted to have a sift through Bitfinex/Tether's shit. That doesn't speak for any other day in the past and we'll probably never know whether it was naughty, but going forward, there it is.

The other exchanges don’t have any of my personal identification, just an email address. So no, other exchanges are not reporting anything b cause they have nothing to report
You must not be using a major exchange if that is the case.

It is not Bitfinex’s fault this law was passed. They really don’t have any way of not following the law, otherwise they are at risk of much worse things happening.

Bitfinex is really the last reputable exchange that allows anything close to anon registrations and if you don’t want this type of information reported, you really don’t have much of a choice. Other exchanges share similar information with global tax authorities, they might not tell you though.
Not sure what you’re talking about, this is the first exchange to report users to there countries tax departments. I have used many exchanges. This is way over the top
You are mistaken. This is the first exchange I have heard of that is *publicly* reporting information to tax departments. I would fairly confidently say other exchanges are doing the same.

To me it sounds like Bitfinex is warning their customers to make sure their taxes are in order in case information released results in an audit.

Politically motivated and flawed legislation has been rushed through with no cost-benefit analysis and a negative impact on individual privacy and national sovereignty, potentially leading to global data theft, kidnapping, blackmail and political oppression.

Aside from philosophical or constitutionally enshrined entitlements to privacy, many individuals legitimately fear that disclosure of financial information may increase their exposure to kidnapping, extortion or blackmailing by criminals or confiscation of assets by corrupt governments.

Tax has become such a publicly 'moral' issue such that no high profile client wants to be seen to complain about the CRS or be seen as "non-compliant". In essence, may they have been gagged by the media?  Many clients are happy to co-exist with the CRS system so they may be portrayed as 'clean' and 'above board'. At the other end of the spectrum, beyond fear of kidnap and murder, clients are further preoccupied that any leak from the tax authorities following implementation of CRS may lead to their financial affairs becoming headline news, irrespective of the legality and perceived morality of the 'why'.

Looks to be selective according to them at least. Is it not a wee stamp of legitimacy? That's no use to the people who've been asked to hand it over of course.
