Bitfinex hack incident results in profit, says crypto community

Many crypto players shared their thoughts on the latest recovery of the stolen Bitcoin of the Bitfinex exchange.

In 2016, Bitfinex exchange lost around 120,000 Bitcoins in a hack attack. A couple of days ago, US agency successfully arrested two people and also found the private key of Bitcoin, which containd around 94,000 Bitcoins. Hopefully these bitcoins will go to the Bitfinex exchange. 

Ran Neuner, the host of Crypto Banter, shared his thoughts on this matter and said that Bitfinex lost $76 million worth of Bitcoin and in return, it will get $3.6 billion worth of Bitcoins. In this way, Ran suggested to people that we can buy Bitcoin at loan and can pay slowly. 

Changpeng Zhao, CEO of Binance, also shared his thoughts and asked the community two important questions. The first question Zhao asked whether Bitfinex will make money or not. From this hack incident matter and secondly, how will they split if they will get their Bitcoins.

Binance CEO raised a really good question but here the community is somewhat confused with the Leo token and RRT token. Reportedly Leo token was donated to the community in componsation of loss.

Binance CEO also supported crypto and claimed that Bitcoin and crypto are traceable but fiat not. Indirectly appreciated the blockchain technology features. 

On the other hand, people are raising voices in support of Bitcoin and claiming that the US government is officially holding $4.5 billion worth of Bitcoin on its balance. 

Even Michael Saylor, CEO of Microstrategy, also shared his happiness on this matter.
