I opened a position and it was filled but it is not showing in the active position list. Is anyone else having this problem?
I'm; see the message above. By the way, I still see the position which I had closed and it seems like I could close it again (with profit). You owners really need to do something with it.

Update: lol I was able to close it again and got some profit.

They need to get on this ASAP!!!!
Calm. The funds I got from the fake position disappered (although the comission was held). What is worse is that I can't withdraw all my BTC (some seems to be reserved for the position). Someone might be goxxed...

Something is definitely wrong with BF. I got an open position (short) on the LTC/USD pair. Just tried to sell more and my order was executed and I could find it the history but it's not displayed in the position. I mean that I still have the same amount in the position that I've had before selling.

Update: The position was partially fixed but still not correct. I guess the exchange is having some delays executing orders. Careful.

What should i do answer them regarding the Margin was not enough and why they not close the rebuy order for the short its obvious or not ?   sorry for my english  btw

is there any chance to get my rights or am i done with that ?
Any order that YOU placed will stay current for as long as there is enough funds to back such order, until YOU cancel it yourself.  This is also true regardless of any other trades that might happen on your account meanwhile.

Please consider changing this so the default is to have them visible, or at least [b
add an option in Account Settings[/b] to allow for this default to be changed, per user.

Thank you for your consideration with this matter."

I personally do not yet feel any major shortcomings of new interface (except lack of sorting I reported above), but I would definitely second the suggestion to provide interface customizations (setting default views). Obviously you cannot "please" everyone, so enabling custom views of sort, can be a very good (and in fact quite common) solution.

Feature re-enabling request (aka "new interface" issue):

Could the tech team please look into the lost in new interface feature of sorting things from within one's account. I am not sure yet if more than one place is affected, but at least in swaps section, sorting of taken swaps by date and by the amount is no longer possible (sorting by percentage seems to be the only parameter working). Within old interface, one could just click on column title and get things sorted (ascending or descending, per repeated clicks).

Thank you in advance.

Open letter to Bitfinex and my apologies if this has been covered in the thread already, but I haven't check posts in awhile:

"Hi I am a Bitfinex customer and I noticed you made several changes to the site recently.  One reason I prefer Bitfinex to your competitors is that you seem to be continually working to tweak and improve it to make it even better.

However one of the recent changes I feel is negative so wanted to give you some feedback.  It seems that the default view for "My Active Positions" and "My Active Orders" is to be closed, so you can't actually see your positions and orders. 

For instance if I am looking at BTCUSD Exchange and want to go to Margin Trade, it automatically collapses them and I have to click on the little arrow to show them again.  If even go between Margin Trade BTCUSD to LTCUSD, it hides them again too.

As you know, speed is of the essence with trading and this just slows everything down. Also if you have an open position and open orders, it's important to be able to see them and act on that information that is displayed, so I'm not sure why you choose to hide them repeatedly, so have to take valuable time clicking and displaying them over and over again.

Please consider changing this so the default is to have them visible, or at least add an option in Account Settings to allow for this default to be changed, per user.

Thank you for your consideration with this matter."

is it possible that someone got the mail with which you have registered at bitfinex. then he/she created an account and so knew the password. then he/she changed the mail adress in the account so you can log in and trade, so he/she then would log in and steal your btc, but you changed the password. so it was just kind of phishing.


No, for I never ever registered with Bitfinex.

Why did they risk losing all these coins? I mean these coins now might be owned by bitfinex. And when no one asks for them then they can keep it.

Why risking that the owners of the email get an email and login? I mean they would lose it pretty fast then. I dont understand this.

By the way... the owners of these emails could have taken the bitcoins too, then claiming the hacker did that.

This all makes no sense to me. At least they could have created accounts with 1 Bitcoins in it. When they are gone then the email is still in use and the owner cares and didnt think its spam.

What did they try to do with the coins anyway? They should have sell and withdraw. End of story.

I absolutely agree. This seems weird. They either were so unbelievable stupid that it hurts, or they have a bigger plan which is so unfuckingbelievable smart that it's beyond our imagination. However, they were pretty smart in setting up the whole cloudminr.io-operation, so why would they now be so stupid. I really don't get it at the moment.

One guy found BTC with a value of about 300'000  USD on his Bitfinex-account which he never opened
...How was he able to log in into an account which he never opened, please elaborate?

Just the same way as I did it: I received an e-mail from Bitfinex on my trashmail.com-mail that I've opened an account. I tried to log in and asked for a password reset. Then I got a link, klicked on it and received a new password on my mail address.

So just for documenting it: This was the first e-mail I received:

With the new password, of course, I was able to log in, the person who originally created the account was locked out. Meanwhile, after several persons have complained, my and several other accounts have been deleted.

If you look at the information which was released by cloudminr or their hackers (which I believe are the same), some persons can be fully identified, others not, with a simple doxing. If you look in the cloudminr-discussion, you'll see that at least one guy never opened "his" account, checked it anyway and found hundreds of Bitcoins there.

So it is obvious that these accounts were not locked or anything, but ready to be used...

What did you post here? Oo 20 times the same text?

No, about a hundred times, because they totally ignore all teh worst bugs on their site for a year or so they know about them. Plus, their system is only able to match about 30-50 orders per second. Did you hear me? They are able to match 30 orders per second, ano more than that and they are fully flooded.

Alot of people in crypto dont wanna use their personal data, thats one of the key points of current crypto community, whats your problem? You wanna have a Big Brother from NSA checking out every single account tracking down every single BTC you send? Every crypto exchange now has an opportunity of unverified account opening and thats fine because if someone wanna wash their dirty BTC they're gonna use BTC mixers as all the darkmarket guys do. If you wanna make a wire transfer or CC deposit or withdrawal - you have to verify your account and thats right. If finex's gonna force verification for every single account - they will simply lose alot of customers, why should they do that?

So if someone doesn't want to reveal personal data: Fine. There are a lot of services they can use. And don't be childish: I never promoted BB or NSA. That seems to be your little obsession. The point is: When scammers can open accounts for other people and transfer stolen BTC on these accounts for laundering, then it gets dirty. One guy found BTC with a value of about 300'000  USD on his Bitfinex-account which he never opened - obviously stolen money from a scam. Now guess who's going to be fried: The scammers - who keep hiding? Bitfinex which claims that they do all necessary KYC and AML-processes? Or an identifiable person who's account information is connected to the transfer of these BTC?

Bitfinex: I had registered an account with cloudminr.io with a throw-away-e-mail, so I was able to log to these scammer's homepage and see if there is anything useful for getting information about their identity.

However, I never invested a dime since I was convinced from the very beginning that it is a scam.

But now the story becomes interesting.

I used a throw-away-email.
I used a fake name.
I used a fake address.

Now I received an e-mail from Bitfinex saying that my account has been opened.

Good. I never applied for an account. So it seems that cloudminr has opened it. Or someone who bought their information. And many people who had an account with cloudminr all the sudden receive an e-mail from you, telling that they have now an account.

Bitfinex: How is it possible that you opened an account for a fully fictious person? On your homepage you write:

So there was no KYC nor any AML-process needed to open an account? At least in the case of my fake cloudminr-user

This stinks. And I'd like to get some answers from Bitfinex...
