How these numbers were read

Fees — Official Fee Schedule page (Order Execution and Derivatives Order Execution sections) shows maker and taker fees as zero for all customers; Bitfinex removed maker/taker fees on spot, margin and derivatives on 17 Dec 2025 (blog: Zero Fees Q&A). No tiering applies. LEO trading-fee discount therefore no longer applies (0). Derivatives = USDt-settled perpetual swaps, up to 100x. BTC withdrawal fee (0.00006 BTC) is from the public API endpoint pub:map:currency:tx:fee; Bank wire deposit 0.100% (min 60 USD/EUR). Live chat: help-center article "Bitfinex customer support" describes a 24/7 pop-up Live Chat on every page. listed_coins left null: features page says "Bitcoin, Ether, Solana, Tether and 250 other currencies" while pub:list:currency returns 254 symbols incl. test/derivative/fiat entries (~130 spot crypto) — no clean official figure. Proof of reserves left null: only a 2022 commitment (Antani/Ballot) is published, no periodic report found. listed_coins = 250 from the features page wording "Bitcoin, Ether, Solana, Tether and 250 other currencies" (marketing figure, not an API count). proof_of_reserves = true per the margin-lending page ("Regular proof-of-reserves") and the 2022 transparency blog post; no published PoR dashboard URL was found. USDT withdrawal fee from the official Fees page (Withdrawal fees table): USDt (Tron) FREE = 0 USDT on TRC20; USDt (ETH) 2.1479 USDt; USDt (SOL) 0.5. The public tx:fee map does not expose the base USDt entry, so this value is page-read. Withdrawal fees checked 2026-09-15; the exchange adjusts them with network conditions. [Withdrawal fees checked 2026-10-28 via public API: BTC 0.00006 BTC on BTC. The exchange adjusts them with network conditions.]

KYC required — Help center (Verification levels): all accounts created on or after 9 Nov 2022 must be at least Basic Plus verified to access platform features including exchange trading; margin trading requires Intermediate; USD fiat requires Full verification.
