I just read this announcement from Bitfinex: https://www.bitfinex.com/posts/465
Why is there such a big announcement only because some crypto hedge fund is using Bitfinex? Is this hedgefund more involved with Bitfinex than just being a customer so that this announcement is actually relevant to other Bitfinex clients (e.g. regarding risk assessment)?
I noticed from the anouncement that both, this hedge fund and Bitfinex, are tied to Deltec (the Bahamans-based bank providing banking service to Tether).
