Seems a local problem on your side. Try a different browser (chrome, firefox etc). Also make sure your logging in to http s://www.bitfinex. com and not on a (phishing) site with another extension (there is one anding in dot eu, which is a scam and has nothing to do with bitfinex...)

@Giancarlo, Raphaele
I'm sure you've been aware of the recent uproar about Bitstamps intrusive KYC procedure. Many have already compared the situation to the beginning of MtGox's downfall where withdrawal limits/account freezes were put in place allegedly to cooperate with KYC. As a company affiliated with Bitstamp and one which has very early anticipated the MtGox fiasco are you actively monitoring the situation of Bitstamp and are you ready to pull out when deemed necessary? Will you inform your clients (us) about such a move?
Also would a sudden closure of Bitstamp (freeze of BFX funds there) put BFX as a company in danger? Would you pass potential losses onto your customers?
Hoping for an answer to these questions.

We are always monitoring the situation and recently had a meeting with Nejc and Damjian in Amsterdam. I don't believe there is anything to worry about. Should our perception change we will pull out as we did with Gox way before they collapsed. Also would a sudden closure of Bitstamp (freeze of BFX funds there) put BFX as a company in danger? Would you pass potential losses onto your customers?
No it wont. Should an event like this happen (and let me reiterate that I do not think this is the case) we will take full responsibility about our bad judgement and not pass losses to our customers, as we never did in the past. I hope this helps. Have a good day Giancarlo Bitfinex Team

Does https://www.bitfinex.com/login work in IE11? To be honest I can't think of a reason why you want to use internet explorer, switch to firefox or chrome.... better browser and more secure

It seems Bitfinex has again worsened the P2P lending from lenders point of view. Now it does not matter if you specify e.g. 30 days lending period. If the borrower wants it for two days, he can just take it. Previously he at least had to cancel it. In this new system, for a lender the only chance to find a 30-day borrower, is to hit a 30-day bid. In that case, the lender loses at least the spread, often more.
An orderbook with different periods mixed is not a good solution. There should at least be a filtering feature. It would help borrowers and lenders alike.

Incorrect, it has always been this way. Maybe you have just been lucky and had loans taken out for the full time, but it's been like this for almost a year.

And not only that, but the days mean: For lenders: Maximum days the money can be lent. For borrowers: Minimum days the money must be lent.

Thus far when I have lent for 30 days, it always said "30 days". Now, since today, it was "2 days" and "5 days". During the past year I've lent at least a hundred times, probably more. It is possible this could have slipped through me a few times, but if it was often, it would be impossible not to notice.

I would say that at least 95% of the loans I set to 30 days get taken for the 30 days, maybe even higher.

How do you receive swaps with flash return rate? My orders are just sitting there in unfilled swap demands. Besides, i cannot take more than tradable balance as if leveraging does no apply here as well.

Unless I'm mistaken, "Tradeable balance" should already include leverage. Flash return rate can be selected from the little 'options' dropdown underneath where you enter a swap demand. If the flash-return rate is the current lowest, it should also be taken automatically if you enter a trade without manually setting up a swap.
