Uhm, why quote an outdated post without any context? To show that there were bugs in the past too?

How is that possible?
Anyone to explain?

Hello TheXpert,
I will write you a PM for more details on whats next, but for everyone here is what happened. We are currently testing a new trading engine on DRKUSD and DRKBTC pairs only. Initially this engine used a feedback loop to confirm new balances after exchange execution. Problem was when you inserted the same type of orders for the same account in between this loop, like your bot was doing by sending the same marketable orders over and over, the exchange balance checking would be screwed and allow for a negative balance before catching up with your actual balance.
This wasn't such a serious problem anyway as there was a circuit breaker in place that would limit any possible negative loss to a maximum of 1,000 usd.
Anyways this has now been corrected (this was the purpose of testing on very small volume pairs like DRK). Your bot has been very useful in this regard.
Have a good day

I don't see a convincing explanation of what happened without the hacker having had access to their innermost servers.
Well, we'll find out soon enough if there's userdata out there or not.
Oh, I got the first "Bitfinex - Application for refund" scam mail, from "[email protected]".
Watch out.

Don't forget that hackers look at personal information -names, bank accounts and SINs as good as if not more valuable then the bitcoins that they stole.
Those tiny characters on the screen are the gifts that keep on giving from a hackers point of view.
Anyone know for sure if they got customer's information as well?

It wasn't a hack where the site is breached, no personal information was compromised. Bitfinex just messed up with multisigning their wallets, their cold wallet was not cold at all.

Anyone know for sure if they got customer's information as well? The news has still not been completely released on the damage that was caused. I have a pretty good feeling that they won't disclose this information to the public if it has been comprised. That would put them into full damage control mode.

I stopped all my cryptotrading (just in case, very successful) when I had fully realized after the (in)famous Bter hack in February, 2015, that it is not a matter of if but when an exchange gets hacked. Though I was lucky that my funds weren't affected then (only bitcoins were stolen, while I had doges), but I read the writing on the wall very well (and advise everyone to do the same)...
So, no matter how successfully you trade, you will, nevertheless, lose everything in the end

How does the FRR USD rate spike to 0.18% when the outstanding swap barely moves? Ahh, some crazy person renewed 1-3 million swap - possibly at 0.75% (looks like at least 1 million was renewed at 0.75%). Either a bad algorithm or a misclick perhaps.
