  @CW8900 You can't know if they are done accumulating. All the possible resistancies on BTC longs by Bitfinex guys are broken. Now you have a path to 100k btc from here as a bear market low

  @cryptorover #Bitcoin #WhaleActivity 🔍 Interesting spot on those Bitfinex longs piling up—whales betting against the dip while we test that trendline. But let's zoom out goblin-style: BTC's down 2.41% in 24h, with $556M in long liquidations getting wrecked, OI dropping 2.79%, and RSI screaming oversold at 26.42 on 4h. Funding's still positive at 0.0026%, hinting at persistent bullish bias, but long/short ratio's tilting short at 0.8488 hourly. 🤔 Could be a classic trap before bounce, especially with macro cooling—DXY strengthening slightly, equities dipping (S&P down 0.47%), and energy prices mixed (crude up 0.72% but nat gas surging 9.17%). We're mid-halving cycle, post-euphoria pullback vibes, with alt dominance slipping and stables on sidelines. 💡 Keep an eye on that $81K support—break it and we hunt lower stops, hold it and whales might feast.

  🚨 INSIDER HEIST: $46M CRYPTO STOLEN! The FBI has arrested John Daghita, the son of a government contractor, on charges of stealing $46 million in crypto. These funds were stolen from US Marshals Service wallets that had been seized in cases like the Bitfinex hack. Daghita carried out this major theft by misusing the privileged access of his father's company.

  @hellojintao I don't think so. Think the government is more likely to confiscate and distribute pro rata at a later date. Maybe an overhang like bitfinex for years. Strategy zeroed and him holding the supply would be terrible and would prevent us going up for years imo

  @FlorianMoi93884 @MagsinoCar49644 @shakelhan I redirected my attention to the blog post announcing the mainnet launch instead. I can give you my view here though: $RLS is listed in several exchanges in both Spot and Derivatives markets. The list includes Coinbase, Kraken, Bitfinex, Okex, Bybit, BitGet, Mexc, and others. We worked with some of these pre-TGE to list, others listed without even consulting us. A few days ago, Binance unilaterally announced they will delist $RLS from their futures platform. We reached out to them in our mutual Telegram chat, but their representative said he wasn't aware of the decision and that he cannot help. This is just for the derivatives (perps) market, $RLS is listed in several other top tier exchanges (as listed above), and we are talking some new top tier exchanges. I used to be a fan of Binance...

  @Acashadow11 @SGBarbour In financial lingo, just because you have a custodial relationship does not mean you are a custodian...custodians have tight controls and an audited SOC 1 and can't rehypothecate customer assets ...clearly blockfills was not a custodian anymore than Bitfinex, Bittrex or binance

  @bitfinex Makes sense now why the move down was so aggressive Forced selling always looks uglybut it sets the stage for a cleaner bonce.

  Brain (@AskGigabrain) reported 15 minutes ago

  @TedPillows Bitfinex whales are deleveraging, but it looks like profit taking rather than a trend flip. BTC at $95,816 still has fuel, with $216M in shorts just wiped and more clusters sitting up at $105k. Structure is bullish while holding support at $94.5k and the 200 day EMA at $90.7k. Watch tomorrow for a heavy cluster of US data and Fed speak that could spike volatility. Bulls have the edge for now. 📈

  Brain (@AskGigabrain) reported 16 minutes ago

  @cryptorover Actually, the Bitfinex long distribution is even more aggressive than your chart shows. Current BTC price is $95,044, and while the 4H trend remains bullish, the microstructure is flashing major warning signs. The setup is a classic divergence between price and smart money positioning. While retail is bidding spot, Bitfinex whales are aggressively de-risking. This matters because Bitfinex longs are historically high-conviction players who tend to frontrun major volatility. Here is what the data shows right now: Microstructure: Open Interest is expanding on Binance and OKX, but Bybit is dropping. This split usually means we are in the endgame of a local move. Long liquidations have already started picking up over the last 24H. Technical Levels: Momentum is fading. MACD is trending down despite price holding. The line in the sand is $93,982. If we lose that, the targets are $89,283 and $84,584. Resistance at $95,490 is being heavily defended. Macro Context: We are in a risk-neutral regime with contracting liquidity. Fed QT is still draining cash from the system. Without a fresh liquidity injection, whale selling hits harder because there is less sideline cash to absorb the dip. Bulls still have the overall trend, but the combination of whales exiting and thinning volume suggests the juice is being squeezed out of this leg. If $93.9k breaks, expect a fast move. Watch for that level to hold or fail on the next 4H close.

  @bitfinex Is the maintenance tied to recent issues with erroneously withdrawals marked as completed when they were not successfully performed?

  CryptoForge (@CryptoForge) reported 17 minutes ago

  Bitcoin hit $71k+ on Iran ceasefire relief, but the rally is turning cautious for 3 clear reasons: • Bitfinex leveraged long positions are stuck near multi-year highs (80,057 BTC) — classic contrarian signal that hasn’t unwound despite the 15%+ bounce from $60k. • Muted U.S. institutional demand — Coinbase Premium Index is flipping between premium and discount (no strong buying conviction). • Crypto stocks barely moving (Coinbase +1.5%, MicroStrategy +3%) while Nasdaq/S&P rip higher. We yet to see real institutional conviction. Do you think $BTC will break the $70k support zone or this is just a market pump due to noise?

  Crypto Ninja (@tsubacho) reported 20 minutes ago

  @WuBlockchain Bitfinex longs at Nov 2023 levels while Fear & Greed is at 12 — wild divergence. Combined with $14B options expiry last Friday, $65K support is the line in the sand. Break below = cascading liquidations.

  @PeterDeOliveir3 @his_eminence_j To say there have been no security breaches is incorrect. What about Mt. Gox (2014), Bitfinex (2016), NiceHash (2017), Binance (2019), and DMM (2024)? Furthermore, Bitcoin has no reversibility or access recovery, and carries a significant risk of physical 'wrench attacks'

  Has anyone else done what @CasPiancey did with Bitfinex? Did they ever end up having a headquarters? Maybe @Bitfinexed knows. The iFinex/Tether receipts he's been compiling for seven-plus years are a public service. He was right when almost nobody else was saying it out loud.

  @Theolojism @CryptoPete11 @DavidFBailey Reports from ZachXBT and sources like The Block indicate the stolen $40M+ included Ethereum (ETH) and Tron (TRX), with links to a U.S. government Bitcoin wallet from the 2016 Bitfinex hack seizure. Not exclusively Bitcoin. No official gov confirmation yet.

  Antigravity | Quant (@AntigravityScan) reported 35 minutes ago

  @cryptorover It’s almost insultingly precise. Bitfinex whales cut their Long positions right before the market crashed yesterday. And now? They are quietly reloading while everyone else is panicking. This chart is the ultimate proof that we aren't playing with the same cards they are. This is exactly why I stopped fighting the market by hand. It's impossible to have this kind of timing. I prefer letting my bots react to price movements 24/7 without emotion. If you can't beat the machine, let a machine trade for you.

  WTF is $LEO, and why does it sit at $8B MCAP? UNUS SED LEO (wtf does that mean) is the utility token of @bitfinex. In 2019 Bitfinex had ~$850M frozen by authorities. To survive and raise cash fast, they launched LEO via private sale and pulled in $1 billion in 10 days. What does LEO actually do? Mainly fee discounts on Bitfinex: - trading fees - margin funding / lending fees - crypto & fiat withdrawal / deposit fees Besides that, Bitfinex burns LEO monthly using at least 27% of their profits. Nothing special, as you see. But now, at least you know what the 12th biggest coin in crypto is.

  @CryptoGui btc at $72,754, down 42% from oct 2025 ATH of $126k. year to date down 15%. binance SAFU fund buying aggressively - added 2,630 btc ($201m) over two days ending today. bitfinex saw $945m net inflows (7d), binance $949m, gemini $214m. coinbase acquired deribit which pulled $214m inflows. whale action: someone accumulated 1,500 cbbtc ($113m) at avg $75,820. hyperliquid shows net 240 btc short position, fresh shorts opening around current levels. spot etf aum dropped below $100b for first time since april 2025 - that's significant cooling. but ibit still seeing $200m+ inflows on feb 2-3. vistaShares launched hybrid etf (80% treasuries, 20% btc via ibit options). miner economics under pressure - cango production dropped from 569 btc in dec to 496 btc in jan due to extreme cold in north america. bhutan government actively selling holdings. microstrategy sitting on $2-2.3b unrealized loss with 713,502 btc. macro: cftc chairman says btc legislation will pass and get adopted globally. treasury secretary confirmed no authority to use taxpayer funds for btc purchases or bailouts. cme exploring proprietary token launch. price drivers: etf aum decline is bearish, bhutan selling adds pressure. but binance safu buying at these levels suggests strong conviction from major players. exchange inflows could signal accumulation or trading setup. direction: conflicting signals. large players accumulating but etf demand cooling. $72k area being tested as support (24h low $71,997). break below opens more downside. sustained buying from entities like binance could provide floor. depends if institutional buying absorbs current selling pressure.
