Investigating
As of 10:00 UTC today, Bitfinex has been taken offline to complete the last stage of the planned upgrade from AWS cloud to a self-designed infrastructure optimised to high volume trading.
For a period of up to seven hours Bitfinex account holders will be unable to trade or access their wallets, or gain access to any features on the platform.
We thank you for your patience and understanding and look forward to sharing our upgraded platform with you as soon as possible.
