Bitcoins stolen from Bitfinex again in 2016

Bitcoins stolen in 2016 from the Bitfinex exchange have again set in motion. So, about 30 BTC were moved (more than $ 314 thousand at the exchange rate at the time of writing).

This year several cases of the transfer of these coins have already been recorded.

In April, 550 bitcoins came into motion. It is noteworthy that this happened shortly before the New York State Attorney General accused Bitfinex of concealing a loss of $ 800 million and covering it with Tether Limited reserves.

Note that litigation between the state authorities and Bitfinex continues to this day.

In addition, in June, five wallet transactions were recorded under the name Bitfinex Hack 2016. Then about 170 military-technical cooperation was moved.

Prior to this, in 2017, more than 800 bitcoins stolen from the exchange, set in motion and ended up at other sites.

Recall that in August 2016, as a result of hacking, Bitfinex lost almost 120,000 BTC.
