Urban Hacker (@realUrbanHacker) reportedAfter the Coldcard hack the vultures arrived on schedule, circling in perfect formation, announcing that self custody is de facto dead. You've read the posts. If only these poor souls had kept their coins "on an exchange," none of this would have happened. Adults said this out loud, in public, with their real names attached. So let's do the thing nobody circling the corpse wanted to do. Let's look at the data. ๐ด Mt. Gox โ 2014 Hot-wallet theft + years of mismanagement โ insolvency ~850,000 BTC (~200k later recovered) ๐ด Bitfinex โ 2016 Hot wallet breach ~119,756 BTC ๐ด Coincheck โ 2018 Hot wallet breach (NEM) ~523M XEM (~USD 530M then) ๐ด Zaif โ 2018 Hot wallet breach ~5,966 BTC + other assets (~USD 60M) ๐ด QuadrigaCX โ 2018โ19 Not a classic hack: founder death + "inaccessible" cold wallets; monitor found big shortfall / suspected fraud ~26,000 BTC + other coins (~CAD 190โ250M+) ๐ด Cryptopia โ 2019 Hacked, then liquidation (BTC + alts) ~USD 16M+ initially reported ๐ด Binance โ 2019 Hot wallet breach 7,000 BTC (~USD 40M โ SAFU covered users) ๐ด KuCoin โ 2020 Hot wallets breached ~USD 275M mixed tokens ๐ด BitMart โ 2021 Hot wallets breached ~USD 150โ200M mixed ๐ด FTX / Alameda โ 2022 Fraud & insolvency; customer funds misused ~USD 8โ10B shortfall ๐ด DMM Bitcoin โ 2024 Unauthorized outflow 4,502.9 BTC (~USD 300M+) ๐ด WazirX โ 2024 Multisig / custody breach ~USD 230โ235M mixed ๐ด Bybit โ 2025 Cold-wallet / signer exploit ~401,000 ETH (~USD 1.4โ1.5B), not BTC-led Custodial and protocol heists together โ centralized exchanges plus DeFi and bridges โ run into the tens of billions of dollars over their lifetime at event prices, with single bad years clearing USD 2โ3B in hacks alone. That's not counting fraud, insolvency, or the founder who dies with the keys in his head. One Coldcard wave: roughly USD 0.04โ0.07B. Do the division. Very rough math puts Coldcard at somewhere between 0.1% and 1% of a single bad year, and comfortably under 1% of lifetime headline losses from exchanges and DeFi combined. It is a rounding error. It is the tip you leave on the bill for everything else that got stolen this decade. And it is being used as an argument to hand your keys back to the same institutions that produced the top of that table. But I'm not going to end on a smug ratio, because something about this genuinely bothers me. The people who lost money here were not degens. They weren't farming yield on a bridge held together with hope and a Discord moderator. They were the careful ones โ the people who read the guides, bought the hardware, wrote the words down on steel, and did everything the responsible adults told them to do. Playing it safe is exactly what got them hit. That's the part that stings, and anyone selling you a custodial account off the back of their pain should be treated accordingly. The conclusion doesn't move, though. Verify your entropy, verify your seed on a second implementation, stop trusting single black boxes โ and understand that from a strict safety analysis, your funds have never been safer than in self custody.

Hovermere (@Hovermere) reported4/10 Cash is not flowing to โthe RWA market.โ It is flowing to whoever already owns the stack. Alkemya turns idle wire into working capital for GTX. Bitfinex Securities gets a record commodity listing under El Salvadorโs rules. Vault, audit, and venues get paid for the plumbing whether a deep bid shows up or not. Subscribers only start getting paid after the waterfall moves: capital back, 6% preferred, then 80% of surplus. Until a distribution hits, outside money is the product being tested.

EyeOnChain (@EyeOnChain) reportedAbraxas Capital isn't slowing down its ETH buying. Over the past 7 hours, Abraxas Capital has withdrawn more than 15,477 ETH, worth over $29.88 million, from major exchanges. That brings its total ETH accumulation over the past week to more than 48,996 ETH, valued at over $88 million, withdrawn from Binance, Bybit, and Bitfinex. The steady stream of exchange withdrawals suggests Abraxas continues to aggressively accumulate ETH rather than keeping it on trading platforms.

Cryptoinsightuk (@Cryptoinsightuk) reportedbitcoin:native probably does continue down here again at some point soon. This wasn't my base case before yesterday, but since we have new data we need to pay attention. I think there is a liquidation event to come. Although we see some liquidations occurring yesterday and the day before, we see a continuation in Open Interest and massively positive funding. This suggests we have people going leverage long here in size. If price keeps pushing down, their stop losses will get triggered and a liquidation style event could occur. This isn't inevitable, but looks likely here. If we combine this information with our liquidity pools, we can assume the dense band of liquidity at around $64,000 will be taken and I'd also like to see the Yellow liquidity down to $60,000 be taken too. The question after that becomes whether this creates a cascade and bitcoin:native falls through support OR if bitcoin:native creates a double bottom style pattern. This discussion is a difficult one. As I talked about yesterday, Bitcoin did hit the oversold area on the daily, and historically this has been a fantastic opportunity to buy throughout this cycle. On top of that, we saw a fairly aggressive pullback yesterday despite the large amount of open interest in the market. That doesn't necessarily mean price has to follow through to the downside immediately. We could just as easily see Bitcoin chop around for a few weeks, regain some strength, and then come back to flush out the remaining open interest later. In other words, it doesn't have to continue straight down from here. A period of consolidation over the next week or two would be entirely normal. Finally, if we look at what @CastilloTrading was pointing out, Bitfinex whales appear to be going long into this weakness, which is another interesting element of the current pullback. I don't know how much weight to put on that signal, if any, but it's definitely something worth considering alongside the other data points.

NineInchTrails (@nineinchtrails) reportedBTC We went lower. And imo BTC looks like it wants to go lower soon again with breaking $60k eventually. Several BOSs. Closed below demand. Closed below CME gap. Closed below HTF range EQ. USDT.D now BOSs after the SFPs after the bullish 3 drives. Very bullish structure. Confirmed accumulation imo. Also crossed several fibs already. Now in supply. But overall imo USDT.D looks like it wants even higher. All on the daily as well. BVOL out of support. BTC Longs on Bitfinex moving up nearing the next supply level that could indicate a possible local bottom of $44k-$48.9k. So a clean HTF redistribution to me here. The level between $68kish and $70kish acted as a strong "downside trampoline" like I thought. CME Gap + FVG + Range EQ + strong bullish level before at the move up. Things further speed up in terms of going down as thought. Don't know if it's just a coincidence and bs or if I turned knowledge into correct learnings. Waiting for a close below $62.kish SL for confirmed SOW. And as far as I get it there's also no real HTF liquidity there. Would support the idea of a further fast move down. And I think if we close below the $60kish low the probability is very high that we could go all the way down to the $44k-48.9k region for the next local bottom afterwards. FIFA World Cup could act as a nice distraction then maybe, to make the herd believe "everything is good, it's already going up again". HTF Bias: still bearish Main Thesis: we could go below the Feb 6th $60.kish low. Invalidation: in case we should close above $90.kish we have a bullish ChoCh on the daily. // As already stated often but again here and there: Below a TA beginner and not trading yet. So just paper trading here for improving TA.

๐๐ฎ๐ป๐ธXRP (@BankXRP) reportedXRP longs on Bitfinex just printed a massive round trip. Positions surged from 4.9M in June to a peak of 6.45M in late August one of the biggest leverage buildups this cycle. Now unwinding: longs down to 5.62M, price back to $1.41 (-1.61% today). Leverage got ahead of itself. Worth watching if this flushes further or finds support here.
