Guys
Bitfinex has been experiencing tremendous growth due to its success formula.
People can short bitcoins on it and leverage their positions and this 2 functions have been attracting a lot of attention and caused an exponential growth in traffic.
Bitfinex is upgrading its systems and also has recently appointed a database administrator that is working on it.
We are confident to be able to migrate our platform on a much stronger and powerful solution within a week time from now.
Please be aware these have been very intense moments for us and we are constantly working on new implementations to help out our customers and improve their trading experience.
We thank you for your support
Have a good day

Urwhatuknow, thank you for the response. Sadly after already losing ~20% of my total position due to margin being down for over an hour earlier, it doesn't help much.
Some type of notice as to why we were getting all of these delays and errors BEFORE we get ass-raped by the problems would have been great.
Cheers
