In 2016 Bitfinex was hacked which gave a huge lose to the community and especially to the users of bitfinex. Now as the bitcoins recovered what will be its decision. Did the bitfinex paid the lose to the customers at that time or not. If yes then will the bitcoins be given to bitfinex or the customers are still waiting for to recover their bitcoins?
We do not know if who are the owners because their information are confidential but bitfinex knows it because they are the owner of the exchange and they hold their costumers' KYC documents.

I am not sure if bitfenix paid their costumers back in time but now that the hack bitcoins are recovered. They can now return this into their respective owners if the owners of those coins are still using bitfenix but it was a long time since the hacked begun. It's now 2022 and for sure most of us have moved on, using a different exchange that they think safe from hacks but I do not think such exist. Different exchanges are still reported being hacked from time to time.
