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.
What do you think China will do after it has too much coins? #WinkWink
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.

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:

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.

Sometimes you have to put it on a log chart to explain it to them.
