<p>Bitfinex, a major cryptocurrency exchange, faces turmoil following reports of a significant data breach. However, Tether’s CEO, Paulo Ardoino, questioned the legitimacy of the breach and said it “seems fake”. Approximately 2.5 TB of data and sensitive information from around 400,000 customers have been leaked. This has spread concerns among users about asset security.
