      Bitfinex uses hawala through friends-of-employees as a settlement layer, according to their lawyers speaking to the NY AG.pic.twitter.com/FHGtpJU9pa

          Crypto Capital Corp apparently got all the money after they left Noble Bank. This was problematic because Crypto Capital Corp decided to just, you know, keep the money.pic.twitter.com/Dm97Xry4p5

          Bitfinex lied about their liquidity situation and withdraws being honored as requested. (This is my shocked face.)pic.twitter.com/hB5wrwZe2I

          hold on what. So like, as a person if I'm a friend of one of their employee, they could wire me money so I wire that money to their clients? Am I understanding that wrong? Why would they need to do that?

          More likely they pay Friendly Fred in Tether or BTC, Fred uses Fed’s identity to get USD from an exchange, and Fred uses Fred’s bank account to wire to Bitfinex’s customer. Why do this? To keep Bitfinex off a funds flow diagram at a bank, because the bank won’t take their money.

          Thanks to you, I just added Wiki:Hawala to my reading list. Maybe I can get you back? Ever read up on the financial infrastructure of the Knights Templar? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knights_Templar …
