Title: [2016-08-04] Bitfinex Releases Initial Relaunch Plans for Bitcoin Exchange Post by: elyas772 on August 04, 2016, 04:02:42 AM Bitfinex is planning to slowly re-enable user access following its announcement that it had been hacked and robbed of nearly 120,000 bitcoins earlier this week.
In a new message today, the exchange reiterated past statements that it is in the midst of bringing the exchange online, a process that would include allowing users to check balances. Trading, withdrawals and deposits will remain suspended. "The first step is bringing the site online and allowing users to login and view the state of their accounts," the exchange said. Bitfinex closed its trading platform on Tuesday after revealing that it had lost 119,756 BTC, an amount worth roughly $69.5m at current prices. http://www.coindesk.com/bitfinex-relaunch-plans-bitcoin-exchange/ |
