If I have done no verification processes on Bitfinex and am from the United States, will my account still get frozen on the cutoff day?
AFAIK, no.

You can say essentially the same about any regulated exchange out there And I don't necessarily mean Bitcoin exchanges (I don't know how many of them are regulated anyway). Even world-scale exchanges like Nymex have been caught cheating using very illegal practices like front running the orders of their clients (and I don't know what else). They get caught, they get punished, but it is as sure as day that they won't miss a chance to earn a dollar here and there whenever an opportunity arises. People are complaining all the time but things are like they have always been, and will always be like that in the future. Nothing's gonna change

If I have done no verification processes on Bitfinex and am from the United States, will my account still get frozen on the cutoff day? I would like to continue just lending on the site, but if they disable my account, I want to make sure I am fully withdrawn by then. Also, what would happen if I still have loaned coins that are out when the cut off date hits?
Officially Bitfinex is requesting all US based customers to withdraw by 9th November. I guess if you were using a VPN then they wouldn't know where you were, but I'm not sure I would want to take that risk. https://www.bitfinex.com/posts/227Announcements > Update: U.S. Individual Users October 16, 2017
This message is further to our announcement of August 11, 2017, with respect to terminating our business with U.S. individual customers. As indicated in the announcement, we are terminating trading, deposits, and withdrawal functionality for U.S. individual customers by no later than November 9, 2017. U.S. customers are already barred from receiving financing from other users on Bitfinex’s peer-to-peer financing platform. This restriction will remain and, in addition, U.S. individual customers will no longer be able to provide financing on Bitfinex effective November 9, 2017.
All U.S. individual users must make arrangements to withdraw their Digital Tokens by November 9th.
U.S. individuals holding Recovery Right Tokens (RRTs), if any, which relate to the exchange of now-defunct BFX tokens to equity in iFinex Inc., may, starting on October 27, 2017, sell all of their RRTs on the exchange, if they so elect. This is an exception to the general terms of use for RRTs. U.S. individuals are not permitted to buy RRTs during this time period. All terms and conditions relating to the sale of any RRTs remain in full force and effect and are deemed to apply to the sale of any RRTs by U.S. individuals or otherwise. Any RRTs remaining in the hands of U.S. individual verified customers after the November 9th deadline may be sold through Bitfinex on an OTC basis through special arrangement with us.

I guess they will close verified accounts from US customers only and not check/filter based on IP address at all. For banking you need to verify, and when staying crypto only the heat for them will surely be much lower. We'll see soon enough.

Glad that was an error, i'm not an US customer, and i use real rarely finex, so didn't dig up much on the announcement, as 9th november is the "final" date, could also be that they started blocking trading before that date.... But happy for you that solved....

Question. Can I place...advanced orders on the site without any third party tools? I am talking about margin sell/buy WHEN price goes below(or above) a certain price? And then trail that order.

Bitfinex manual trading interface provides OCO (One Cancels Other) so you can place both a profit objective and a stop loss at the same time and the other order will get canceled when one is filled. There is also a trailing stop. What it doesn't have are contingent orders so if I understand what you are asking for the answer is no. You can use either a limit or stop market to enter but then you would have to manually set the trailing stop after you got filled.

Guess this was the last statement so far: https://www.bitfinex.com/posts/203What about... Get some cheap BTC and withdraw them?

Bitfinex is a criminal company and their bank accounts were closed. Of course , they opened another one but it's mainly used for their pockets and some "special" clients. They are using a shell company for that. Bitfinex will never open new bank accounts for its clients because they are banned of the banking system due to their illegal activities. Stay away of them!
