An ominous post was found on the website Medium, in which the user going by the name Hashcrown was replying to a story written by @bitfinexed titled “The Bitfinex Dilemma: Blow up now, or try a Hail-Mary to retain business”

The article was written on November 15th. Inside the comments, the user Hashcrown posted a simply reply, it read “November 19th”.

As we know, November 19th was the alleged hack in which Bitfinex claimed $31 million in Tethers was stolen. It seems an amazing coincidence that on a story regarding the options that Bitfinex has left to keep their Tethers going, someone would post the date of a very large scale hack where tens of millions of dollars go missing.

Who was this user? Was he in contact with the alleged hackers or did he have inside information of what was going on at Bitfinex to plan an elaborate hacking hoax? As of now, we just don’t know.
