It seems that there have been a lot of people complaining about Bitfinex. It seems that Bitfinex has been using Theters to pump Bitcoin price. Now a lot of people is shouting this might be the next MTGOX.
What is your opinion on this one?
Bitfinex may pump and try to manipulate the price of many coins, it's not a secret that many exchanges boost trading volume too, its manipulation to increase profit, the bigger volume will attract new investor and for sure you will have a more attractive price. Exchanges are also a victim of hacks and often lose money.
I am not very surprised they try to increase profit in any possible way including price and volume manipulation.
In August 2016 Bitfinex was hacked and around 120,000 bitcoin was stolen this can explain why exchanges can't be trustworthy and will always do anything possible to increase profits.
