🗞 Crypto Exchange Bitfinex Denies Rumors of 'Insolvency' and 'Banking Issues'

Major crypto exchange Bitfinex has responded to a recent swathe of online rumors, denying that the firm is “insolvent” or facing banking issues, in an official blog post published October 7.

Bitfinex’s rebuttal comes in the wake of last week’s reports that the exchange’s banking partner, Puerto Rico’s Noble Bank International, is seeking a buyer and had lost both Bitfinex and affiliated firm Tether — who share a CEO, Jan Ludovicus van der Velde — as clients.

STEEM Trading Update by my friend @cryptopassion

Here is the chart of yesterday :

Here is the current chart :

This sunday, we had the start of a nice up trend on the STEEM. All the day of yesterday, we went a little bit higher each hour to finally reach 0.85$. We are now consolidating but let's hope this trend will resume soon. If only the BTC could start also a UP move in the coming hours, I'm sure it would help us to quickly join the 1$ level.
