Self-Custody is a right. Say no to"Non-custodial"
Sure, Bitfinex had several opportunities already to employ an exchange exit scam -
For all we know, they have already executed two partial exit scams.
If you want to ground your views of the world on conspiracy theories, then sure that is possible.
I've seen enough exit scams. I know the way this story usually ends. 'Trust but verify' doesn't work, unless you actually get around to the verification part. How's that audit looking?
You don't know shit.... You are merely, guessing, assuming, speculating and also coming to too strong of a conclusion that there is a scam going on based on pretty skimpy evidence, even if you are proclaiming to have some kind of "gut feeling"
You're right. I don't know shit about Bitfiniex's situation. Which is why I don't trust them with my money.
'Trust but verify' doesn't work, unless you actually get around to the verification part. How's that audit looking?
Yeah, keep repeating your tagline, which is your last sentence to suggest that there is only one way in which the free market works....
Sure, we can have audits, and sure that would be helpful, but in the end, we have numerous people making choices to use the bitfinex service - and USA individual folks have been excluded from such choice by Bitfinex's own business decisions. Bitfinex also likely bans other kinds of accounts or does not verify every Tom, Dick or Harry that walks in the door - yet, they seem to continue to have enough of these Tom, Dicks and Harries to keep their business going - and maybe you could be correct, that some day they will do an exit scam.. perhaps... so keep whining about it, and try to scare people away from using their service.. maybe some people will believe and surely others will not, and perhaps, Bitfinex will chose, at some point, to change some of it's offerings or to improve its credibility through an audit or some other method that they choose, instead of an audit...
We are still in a kind of bitcoin wild, wild west, to some degree, which is both good and bad, but it is our current environment - and they don't have to do an audit, as you seem to be whining your preference as if it should be some kind of rule.
