That's still about 16 cents more then nothing, which is amazing considering they just pulled this thing out of their ehhhh... they made it appear out of thin air I mean.

It is indeed something. Just goes to show that people will trade anything as long it's on an exchange and has a number attached to it. I might issue my own ThinAir tokens.

On one page they say the tokens do not not waive any claims against finex, but on another they say transferring them transfers any claims against the Bitfinex Group to the transferee. If finex buys them all it can argue in court that there are no claims remaining against it for the hack.

To transfer a token to another person, a transferor must assign to the transferee any claims that the transferor has against the Bitfinex Group on account of the Losses.
By transferring a token to another person, all transferors thereby assign to the respective transferees any claims that the transferor has against the Bitfinex Group on account of the Losses.

The token has been issued to you without reduction of or other release or waiver of any claims you may have against the Bitfinex Group. Similarly, the Bitfinex Group has not waived any claims or defences it may have under the Terms of Use or otherwise should you choose to assert any claims independent of the token.

Bitfinex announcement today says US customers can sell but not buy bfx tokens, so I think you are on to something. If I was a victim the last thing I'd be doing is selling these tokens.
