Sadly there is a lot of red flags indicating that this is not the case, they haven't had banking since April so there are no way to deposit funds to them for regular users at least.

- nickfromseattle 9y agoThe tether scandal is highly concerning. Essentially Bitfinex and Tether are owned by the same people, the Tethers issued do not appear to be backed by USD, and there are almost a billion tethers issued - which many believe is responsible for the increase in BitCoin. They've claimed they are ready to release audit details for 2+ years (no audit), and the founding team has also gone on the record about wash trading and other fraudulent financial activity. Additionally, Bitfinex had some 'flash crashes' that wiped out people's margin accounts. Some believe the flash crash was caused by Bitfinex themselves on purpose to accomplish this exact goal.
