Bitfinex Not Accepting US retail customers

in #cryptocurrency7 years ago

It is Official, Bitfinex NOT accepting US customers. If you're US based, you need to withdraw your crypto currency before November 9, 2017.

“Bitfinext is terminating it’s relationship with US individual customers

US Individual customers must cease trading and funding activity, close any open trading positions, return any reserved funding you may have, and withdrawal all of your balances from the platform as expeditiously as possible.

For verified individual U.S. customers, we have already disabled deposit pages and financing from being submitted. After a short grace period to allow for withdrawing your funds, all services will be blocked for US individual accounts. For more information, see the announcement post and the following Knowledge Base articles“.

I've used Bitfinex exchange to provide how to procedure - How to buy an EOS token?

I've created my accounts to US based exchange during my research. I will check if they enforce the same restriction.

This is why it's highly recommended to have your own offline wallet to keep your crypto currencies with you. Anyway, that's another post to share.

I first posted this to my blog. https://que.com/blocklist-com-report-1-how-to-buy-an-eos-token/
