dunno how true this is but here you go. bitfinex plan to issue some type of coin to pay dividends on future bitfinex profits and poloniex are gonna trade it. looks like they'll be back in business soon if this is the real deal.
Zanetackett says the Bitfinex site might be back up in view balance only mode by the end of today EST, although that probably means by tomorrow. He's also talking about making an update of where everything stands, but he's refusing to discuss reimbursing customers until after the site's back up.
I doubt we will find out if that tweet is true until after Bitfinex is online again.
I'm not sure if we'll be able to get it up today but we're trying as hard as we can. As it is getting late i'll try to see if i can get an update of where everything stands and make another post updating everyone with where things stand for now.
