bitfinex that are supposedly in beta with 40k daily volume already?

[CryptoPanda]

According to
http://bitcoinity.org/markets/list?currency=ALL&span=24h

bitfinex has 43k BTC volume for the last 24 hours.
If I remember right, they just started and are still in beta? Any news that I've missed about how did they do that?
Or it's again China that's responsible for most of the volume there? (they are based out of Hong Kong)

nobody else heard about them either i suppose?

They are longer around than you on this forum.

Yep. BFX is pretty old. I use them when I can't find someone local.

Then I guess it's my mistake I haven't heard about them.
Also on their page they claim they are in beta, so that helped for my confusion as well
