The assertions made by the OCCRP are factually incorrect. We advised OCCRP of this in March 2023. Wired magazine made no effort to contact Bitfinex to enquire about the veracity of the report.
Bitfinex refutes the findings of the OCCRP. As is well known, there is an investigation being conducted by authorities into the causes of the security breach at Bitfinex that took place in 2016.
Once adjudication of these matters has taken place, Bitfinex reserves the right to provide a fuller account of the breach. We believe that to make any comments before this process is complete would be inappropriate.
