ZHAO Dong, a Bitfinex stakeholder, allegedly revealed that Bitfinex will launch IEO and some leviathans have subscribed to a value of $ 300 million in tokens.
The statement is not officially verified, however, it has traveled far.
Dovey Wan, founding partner of Primitive Ventures, added some more details, although it has not yet been verified.
"Bitfinex is planning a sale of exchange token + IEO ... plan to raise $ 1B in $ USDT," she wrote on Twitter.
In addition, she proposed three inconsistencies that she detected of all public information. She wrote on Twitter:
"1. If BFX is highly positive for cash flow, why was it borrowed from Tether?
2. If the $ 850m can be easily tracked? Why IEO?
3. If BFX does not really give a NYAG (it's not criminal) charges yet) why bother doing all this? "
ZHAO Dong, confirmed in Weibo (the equivalent of China to Twitter), the plans of the exchange as well as warned about possible scams around his IEO.
"Bitfinex has its token plan, but the details are not finalized At the moment, if there is someone who says they have access to the Bitfinex Token token, keep in mind that they are probably scammers."
