TechFlow news: Tether CEO tweeted that the Bitfinex data leak may be a fake incident, with the following reasons:
- The sample data contains 22,500 email addresses and password records;
- Bitfinex does not store plaintext passwords, nor does it store 2FA secrets in plain text;
- Only 5,000 out of the 22,500 emails match Bitfinex users;
- The alleged hacker has not contacted Bitfinex. If they had any genuine data, they would have reached out via Bitfinex's bug bounty program or customer support channels.
