BFX Token-for-Equity Exchange Details Imminent
Another update about Bitfinex, things are going in the right direction in my opinion:
We are pleased to provide an update on our partnership with BnkToTheFuture. As we announced on August 22nd, we are coordinating with BnkToTheFuture to launch a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) that will allow the conversion of BFX tokens to equity stakes in iFinex, the corporate entity behind Bitfinex. We expect to release final details and terms on or before Sept. 15, 2016.
As previously reported, we have signed a letter of intent with BnkToTheFuture, an online investment platform, to provide an SPV through which BFX token holders can exchange their BFX for a beneficial interest in iFinex. Since then we have worked on adding functionality to facilitate these exchanges within the Bitfinex platform. Redemption of BFX for the beneficial interest in iFinex will be done at BFX’s face value of $1 US Dollar.
Participation in the SPV will be limited to holders of a minimum of 1,000 BFX tokens. It is principally designed to compensate Bitfinex customers who suffered losses resulting from a security breach that occurred against the company on August 2, 2016.
We are continuing to press forward with our plan to retire as many BFX tokens as possible through the equity conversion.
Going forward, our principal objectives are to raise new capital to help redeem outstanding BFX tokens and fund investment in future growth.
We will continue to provide updates to our customers and keep them informed about the progress of our proposed exchange.
