In part 2, Paolo recounts his memories surrounding the infamous Bitfinex hack of 2016 where cybercriminals made off with $70 million in crypto, one of the largest crypto hacks ever, at its time. He details how Bitfinex managed to emerge with its reputation intact, by repaying the platform's users within 7 months, by issuing a token. He also discusses the challenges of meeting regulatory demands, for both Bitfinex and Tether, and the current status of Tether's ongoing audit of reserves.
