RE: EOS Tokens Bitfinex Support Reply (US Customers READ THIS)!
Why you would sell at a loss and not just send to your wallet is a personal investment decision but I don't know why you would suggest others to do so.
(I am guessing at a loss because if I remember correctly the USD price for the first window was .86 then quickly to 1.26 on day 2 and up further from that point until just recently and one other short time when the market corrected)
I struggle to understand how anyone in the US doesn't have a VPN because of all the tracking. and Vpn's make your connection on free WIFI safer. Anyone wishing to participate in ICO's needs to have one anyway. All for less than $50 a year
I use Bitfinex and have no issues at all with deposits, withdrawals or margin using a VPN and have not verified and have no plans to verify my identity. Nor am I verified on Polo, Bittrex, Openledger, Binance or any of the others I trade on.
I'm just suggesting people in the US get their stuff off that exchange. They can keep or sell what the want. My personal choice may not be yours. Read the email reply again that I got from them just today. It does not look good for US customers. I'm not going to trust a lot of money on a VPN either.
The post was edited too after reading it again. You are correct. There's no reason to sell them, but I wouldn't leave them, or anything else, on Bitfinex.
