Here's the announcement
Security breach on Bitfinex
Today we discovered a security breach that requires us to halt all trading on Bitfinex, as well as halt all digital token deposits to and withdrawals from Bitfinex.
Will they keep our funds now??I am losing faith in all this digital currencies now.
I stopped all my cryptotrading (just in case, very successful) when I had fully realized after the (in)famous Bter hack in February, 2015, that it is not a matter of
if but
when an exchange gets hacked. Though I was lucky that my funds weren't affected then (only bitcoins were stolen, while I had doges), but I read the writing on the wall very well (and advise everyone to do the same)...
So, no matter how successfully you trade, you will, nevertheless, lose everything in the end
