Bitfinex, one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges, was temporarily down earlier this morning after suffering a distributed denial of service (DDOS) attack. “Bitfinex is currently under extreme load,” the company tweeted Tuesday morning. “We are investigating the issue and will keep you all up to date as we learn more.”
It appears the company faced two different problems today. In its detailed statement, it said that the first outage was caused by issues with one of its infrastructure providers. “While the platform was recovering, the attack caused extreme load on the servers,” the company said in its announcement.
