It was previously announced that on June 10, 2020, Bitfinex will be able to perform a system upgrade on Wednesday to provide for the stability and scalability of the iFinex trading infrastructure.

Bitfinex has expressed that it is now possible to reach top trading influencers on Bitfinex Pulse.

They have now made it possible to attach charts on messages.  Further, users will be able to see and link previews when anyone shares a URL. Users will also now be able to get notified anytime a pulser sends you a message.

Paolo Ardoino tweeted:  New unique features will be available in the coming weeks. This is an important milestone that will allow Bitfinex to deliver the next wave of products! Bonus: this upgrade will bring 5x perf increase to some core processes to become even more resilient.”

Paolo Ardoino expressed his opinion about auto-scaling and stated that it is not really good with Burst, which needs to be handled in matters of milliseconds.

He also gave several tips like:  “1. Use bare-metal servers 2. Ensure your infra/services can handle 10x spikes in milliseconds, not minutes 3. UI should rely entirely on WebSockets 4. Push users towards WebSockets 5. Use standard DBs only for historical data, serve real-time data via in-mem processes.”

Sydney Ifergan, the crypto expert, tweeted:  “Paolo Ardoino recently stated that Bitfinex can run on a Commodore 64 as long as devs and traders keep listening to Metallica. Really?”

Paolo previously acknowledged, stating, Thanks for having me nic_carter and OnTheBrinkCIV! Really friendly conversation and a lot of important topics covered.

Paolo opines that we need to grow lightning networks together and further reinstated that wider connectivity means a stronger and more resilient network.

Paolo is clearly passionate and objective in the way he expresses himself.  He opines that scalable software development is a mix of science and art.  So, Anything about Bitfinex should be a mix of art and science.
