Bitfinex Resumed Operation After Suffering Trading Outage
Crypto exchange Bitfinex suspended trading on Tuesday after experiencing unexplained "issues."
"We are investigating issues with the platform and have to temporarily halt trading," Bitfinex tweeted from its official account at 12:37 pm London time. The exchange directed users to its status page for further updates.
The status page listed the exchange's web server, trading engine, backend workers, WebSockets and FIX gateways as "under maintenance." Bitfinex last experienced a similar outage in September, according to the status log on its website.
After trading resumed, a Bitfinex spokesperson gave the following statement: "A minor glitch occurred during an internal server update. As a precautionary measure, and given that current market conditions are not volatile, we paused trading to investigate further."
