Finex: "At 00:00 UTC we will restart trading. Between now and 00:00 UTC users can cancel any active orders they may have."
So... 3 ... 2 ... 1 ... NOW!
Nope

Something is happening!!! .. there is some weird interference! Lag spikes and delays! Do you seem to see the same problems??? DDOS attack?

I think we're done for a while till some corrections wash through.
Everything's gone saturated on all ranges.
That 12-hour....might retrace back to the next support level @ 670. Needs to wash through I think - even if it's just a gentle correction like June 8th-12th.

What do you think China will do after it has too much coins? #WinkWink
Hysterical rally euphoria stalls as the price, up there at the apex of its trajectory, hangs frozen in that magic moment of Nash Equilibrium ... before the cruel forces of gravitation drive it down, faster and faster, onto the heads of hapless rocketeers... 9.8 m/s/s, like it always has done in the past, guaranteed by immutable laws of the cosmos & heartless ballistics.

Bitfinex update: "Update - We will allow users to cancel open orders during a 10 minute period before we will restart the trading engine. Our best estimate is this will be about one hour from now. We will announce when this period will start as soon as we have a precise ETA. "

10 minutes is a very short period of time, but I guess if these are active traders, they may be able to act upon canceling their orders, if they wish, upon the reopening.
As far as I can recall, all of my open orders on Bitfinex are more than like $50 away from the current price.

I noticed crazy walls getting put up in both directions immediately before trading halted. They looked like the walls on OKcoin where all you get is two almost vertical lines with no gap in-between them. I felt something was wrong because walls like that don't happen on bitfinex.

They will take profits from other exchanges as well.
Especially when they can coordinate and know in advance what the moves of the plan is. And knowing that: The West follows China like a drunk Amsterdam pony!
You are talking with a kind of subterfuged xenophobic nonsense - like dog whistles

This is breaking down and BFX still does "investigate a platform issue"... Grrr... 
PS. Looks like it's holding for now, we'll see tomorrow morning...

BFX has investigated the platform issue, discovered an internal network issue, and is now working on recovering from it. The last issue was solved in about an hour. This one's taking a little longer to solve but BFX will probably be back online soon.

The price is breaking back up again.

and BTC785 till $850 where did the order book go?
and BTC785 till $850 where did the order book go?trade has been halted for about 10m
no news yet....
pray china doesnt do anything in the meantime.
Bitfinex twitter: "We are experiencing platform issues. We are investigating and will resume normal operations as soon as possible."
Did the CEO of bitcoin just turn off bitcoin?
I thought that bitcoin could not be turned off?
Edit:
Here, I found this statement from Bitfinex:
"Trading has been paused while we investigate an infrastructure issue impacting the trading engine. The issue does not involve funds or system security. We will resume normal operations as soon as possible.?
I noticed crazy walls getting put up in both directions immediately before trading halted. They looked like the walls on OKcoin where all you get is two almost vertical lines with no gap in-between them. I felt something was wrong because walls like that don't happen on bitfinex.
I was kind of busy with something else, so I did not notice that kind of activity, and I had not realized that trading had been frozen until I saw the message on this thread.
Hopefully, their issue is not too major. I recall that last year (maybe it was even late 2014-ish), on several occasions, Bitfinex had issues and shut downs, and I believe that they had lost some credibility because of going through those issues. We always hope that they are learning from these kinds of issues, and that the corruption (if any) is not coming from within the exchange itself.. and if they lose coins, then they are able to contain it to small amounts (even though frequently, there tend to be self-imposed limits in the degree to which they are willing to be completely transparent about what is happening and their fixes). Also, Bitfinex has several more complications on their exchange, as compared to bitstamp, based on the kinds of additional trading that they allow (including marginal trading and shorting)

Unlike back then, now some people are bound to dump their btc at the slightest sign of bubble (like that one.) bursting.
People like to think that they're older and wiser now, but they're always going to be prone to mania and squealing 'this time it's different'. Human nature doesn't change. And perhaps one day it will be different. Not yet though.
The only people who will be dumping at the key moments are the ice men who are above such things and will always be with us pulling the strings.
It's ironic how they cannot see that their actions mirror the actions of players in the previous bubbles. Oh well, more coin for the icemen.
