About 550 Bitcoins, abducted from Bitfinex in 2016 and still located at addresses of unidentified hackers, were set in motion the day before. It is noteworthy that this happened shortly before the prosecutor's office of the State of New York charged the exchange with the fact that it concealed the fact of loss of about $ 850 million, using the means of the issuer of steylkoina Tether to cover the damage.

The user Reddit jankeldidi paid attention to the transfer of funds. He also gave a list of 13 addresses where there were coins and movements that were not available until yesterday. Additionally, jankeldidi provides a link to an extended list of more than 2,000 addresses that were used to withdraw stolen funds.

“Do whatever you want with this information,” he wrote.

Recall that as a result of hacking in early August 2016, Bitfinex lost almost 120,000 BTC and was forced to suspend work . Later, the administration of the exchange offered a reward of up to $ 3.6 million for assistance with the return of funds.

To cover the losses of users, Bitfinex released BFX tokens , writing off 36% of its assets from the accounts of all customers of the exchange. At the same time, BFX tokens were credited to their accounts, which gave the right to reimbursement of the debited funds.

Despite the fact that critics questioned the legality of such a measure from a legal point of view, in April 2017 Bitfinex announced that it had fully settled all debts to investors.

We also add that in February 2017, it was reported that the stolen Bitcoins are listed on the stock exchanges, but some of the coins remained motionless. Until yesterday.

As for the new charges against the exchange, it categorically denies them. However, over the past 24 hours, users have withdrawn from Bitfinex for more than $ 300 million in Bitcoins and Ethereum.
