So nearly 120,000 bitcoins stolen. Hacker all in your face playing games. This is so much like the DAO hack.
So is this additional incentive for the community to support a Bitcoin Hardfork? Or maybe the hack is legit, done to incentivize the Chinese miners/exchanges to go along with a split.
Crypto is getting crazier by the day.

Leave it to the government to set you up! --- [Bitcoin.com] - Bitfinex Hack: US Regulation [CFTC] ‘Prevented Cold Storage Use’ By William Suberg - August 3, 2016 --- If you can't get a couple federal agents to work on the inside [like with Gox] that's a good way to set up a Chinese exchange for a massive hack. Serious talk of a blockchain rewind or better yet, supporting a Hardfork should be imminent now. With the Chinese onboard a Bitcoin split at this point is a near guarantee. They have to choose between playing ball or going bankrupt, Gox style.

The main things I have learned as a trader of crypto is to not get too attached to any coin and to take profits when they present themselves. My best strategy so far is to buy while the price is going down, and sell while price going upward (sounds easy right, in theory it is).
Stay frosty.
-PoolMinor
My problem isn't picking coins which will skyrocket, but selling them in time. I tend to choose coins which give me a strong feeling of conviction and sometimes the fundamentals aren't as strong as my feelings, or at least the timing isn't right yet so I tend to hold and not sell. I need to learn to sell after having really good profits staring me in my face. It is definitely easier said than done. Staying frosty!

Oh shit, Andreas is finally right about something. LATE, but at least he's finally right.
--- [Cointelegraph] - Bitcoin will have a hard-fork, eventually, I think," predicts the author of Mastering Bitcoin. "When bitcoin has a HF, there will be 2 chains after the fork and there will be 2 coins. It is almost guaranteed that some people will refuse the new chain and will remain on the old chain. There are enough people with significant amounts of bitcoin who will never agree to a fork and can afford to keep mining the old chain. Ethereum demonstrated this issue very well.” --- Boy, we're so lucky banker backed Ethereum came along when it did, luckily had their DAO hacked [with no crime committed], then hardforked against popular vote and luckily had both chains survive and do well and luckily also worked out all the bugs like replay-attacks. Boy that worked out nicely for the classic camp. lol The good news is that if you lost everything on Bitfinex you'll get it all back. The Chinese will be playing ball with the Bitcoin split now so they won't lose the 120,000 BTC. But this Hardfork will change everything. Not that the pipedream was ever real but most really did drink the crazy crypto koolaid. Shame on you!!! You guys ready for Satoshi/Wright? I pee myself a little everytime I think about it. Bring me that #AussiePower, Dr. Wright!!!This is gonna be sooooooo much fun!!!!

Is there more to it? 52 alone doesn't add up. Edit: Got it. Was looking for something more complex. It's my natural inclination.

I think we'll see only 2 gaining traction. They're preparing 2 wallet versions, with and without an algo change depending if they need to protect themselves from the miners. My guess is the miners will do their own thing on the original chain using sidechains so then the new Bitcoin will indeed use a different PoW algo so that will be the wallet they use which will result in two coins (original and classic although I really can't see them both using the Bitcoin name). This is effectively printing another 21 million bitcoins, 100% inflation overnight. 200% inflation would be too much at this point. Maybe next year they'll dilute us again. Enjoy your "free" bitcoins - and don't worry about market forces, they'll pump it up like Hanz and Franz.

You guys, err, muppets should be buying some UNB [UnbreakableCoin]. I think it's about to get Terpinized. lol
At $5k-$10k cap it can be a 100+ fold coin. Solid development and low float.
Ridiculously favorable risk/reward ratio if you believe in their devs and I do.
Cheers!

Don't think of them as free, but think of it as having a 50% off coupon for any bitcoin you buy (and don't sell) before the HF.
Excellent way of looking at it. When people realize this is gonna really happen there should be a mad rush into Bitcoin. Alts will collapse then after the HF a massive rush back into alts. Get the timing right and become disgustingly rich [and a chance to be a true Champion of the people].

This really should be historic and exciting!
--- [Coindesk] - Newly back from a leave of absence, Overstock CEO Patrick Bryne is already promising big blockchain news ahead. Addressing a group of investors during a Q2 earnings call today, Byrne spoke about Overstock subsidiary Medici, the division of the online retailer developing the post-trade blockchain project tØ. Byrne said: "You’ll see a historic announcement in the weeks ahead. If all goes well, about four-ish weeks from now." --- So in about 1 month we'll see t0.com launch their own coin. This coin will be a billion dollar+ coin so buy it up like crazy on any dips. Just for the record, I really did my best to get them to use IXC. I opened the door to Tron [actual true story] but couldn't close the deal. Nothing wrong with IXC - they simply wanted a more privatized chain so my guess is they'll launch their own coin, although there is a small chance they found one which they can use. 1 month away. This really is gonna be big news even if IXC didn't get the deal. Thanks for the opportunity, Tron!

Well, the best way to take on manipulators is to outdo them. They really need a people's coin up there in the top 3 to shake things up [and to keep things real]. Give people a honest, raised up from grassroots choice!
