It is not the first hack of bitfinex, but it is the second time, and after that I think n one will believe o bitfinex and everyone is going to leave that exchange, I also now do not want to go there.

I don't know if it is really hacked and they didn't know who are the hackers or they just made it up because it's an inside job and they stole the user's BTC. The users bear the loss and its CEO is nowhere to be found as what I have read in one of the news. The trust of the people in exchanges will not be the same again as it happened also before and the fact that the withdrawals increase upon the open of the exchange again will support it.People should be careful as to where they should put their money/bitcoin and always to spread their funds in several wallets or exchanges to manage risk.

thats true, though it is good to see that those problems always get resolved so we dont need to worry about it too much right now

"I believe they are actually trying to resolve them right now, it may just be PR.
Although I have seen some people actually receiving their coins back from bitfinex."

Is this true? Is BFX actually returning coins seized in "socialized loss?" Do you have a source?

Most frustrating is that Bitfinex socialized the losses between the clients without any permission.
Would be fair If there would be an authority to put them back into their place.

I do not believe that their guilt for what happened there. Their safety should not cause doubt, and always should be monitored, and they are easily hacked and stole a huge sum. And now they want to compensate for losses due to users.

They avoid any questions asking about technicals of the hack by saying there is an ongoing investigation, and they cannot comment until it's completed. They keep pasting this quote all over reddit in reply to any awkward questions.


After the ongoing investigation there will probably be a court case, and they will again say they cannot comment until it's completed.
