Didn't bitfinex screw up last august and made the price crash badly? Then they came up with those ridiculous BFX tokens, and now this? Those guys should have closed business. I can't believe why people still trust their money with those guys.
This news may cause another massive withdrawal from whom has bitcoin on Bitfinex, but right now Bitfinex has highest exchange rate ($1265) while other exchanges stay around $1199-$1216, no one could taking this free money as their halt withdrawal maybe. I've never use Bitfinex exchange as their security breached last year which mostly people should aware of it.
