Bitfinex offers on-blockchain Bitcoin transactions

Typically, exchanges work off-chain, meaning that user balances are settled within a central database. Bitfinex will allow users to check their segregated Bitcoin wallets on the blockchain.

Trade settlements will be broadcast once per day.

The exchange recently urged customers to halt deposits following a suspected hack, which is currently being investigated.
