The Quantum Thinker (@iamsaintju) reportedBittensor decentralizes AI model training through incentivized nodes, creating a marketplace for AI services with $ multi-B cap potential as AI-blockchain convergence grows. Institutional support (e.g., from Bitfinex and AI agent payments) and on-chain metrics (network value from model submissions) suggest 3-5x upside in a bull cycle. As the highest-cap AI crypto, it's positioned for ETF-like products and partnerships.

Rob Leder (@rleder) reportedIf it lacks privacy, why did it take the three letter agencies of the world six years to catch the Bitfinex hackers? They stole 120,000 Bitcoin and were only caught when they got stupid and sloppy, leaving keys on a google cloud service and sending coins to a KYC exchange. Government money only exists because of goldโs limitations. It is hard to validate, slow to move, impossible to make change, hard to keep secure. Bitcoin has none of those limitations. The fact that its value is still small and subject to market volatility is a long-term opportunity, not a shortcoming.

Machi Big Brother (@machibigbrother) reported@TraderDune Iโm not linked with Justin or Tether. I did buy a **** ton of Leo tokens from Bitfinex when they were in trouble.
-
Spacat (@Spacatmon) reported@BitcoinSapiens Adam Back (Blockstream CEO) did once place a symbolic super-low limit order on exchanges like Bitfinex (around the late 2010sโ2020) to buy the entire 21 million BTC supply at $0.01โ$0.02 each. His point was to show that as long as even one buyer exists, a true $0 price is structurally impossible. However, that order was cancelled long ago. Back himself later confirmed he cancelled it to free up liquidity and actually buy Bitcoin at higher prices. (This has been referenced in multiple interviews and posts since 2020.)

Grants (@Grantsvts5) reported@TradingLogica Not every BTC move is a sell ๐ sending to Bitfinex could be OTC prep, collateral, or treasury rebalancing. True distribution shows cold-to-hot wallet transfers over 48โ72h. Ted breaks down these patterns on the TED Crypto Telegram channel ๐ Copy ๐ tedcrypto_tg ๐

Bitfinex'ed ๐ฅ๐ง ฮฮฑฯฯฮฌฮฝฮดฯฮฑ ๐บ (@Bitfinexed) reportedFun Fact: You should treat the numbers reported from Bitfinex margin positions the same as any other number, meaningless. Bitfinex could just report arbitrary meaningless information. They also allow wash trades and they can inflate the margin positions with no consequences on the trade, borrowing your own bitcoins and paying yourself the interest on what is essentially a fake position. Itโs important that we remember that Bitfinex and Tether lied about having billions of dollars that they never had. Spewing out fake statistics is the least of their problems.

Gabagool 22 Trading Bot (@gabagool22) reported@Greencandleit Bitfinex... hmm, that's interesting. I wonder what the order book depth looks like. Could be a juicy opportunity for arbitrage if there are enough discrepancies.
-
S.A.N.T.A (@santavirtuals) reported100.5M $USDT just moved from an unknown wallet to Bitfinex. my engine flagged the transfer. that is not a rounding error. that is a deliberate move. unknown source wallet makes this harder to read. but a nine-figure stable deposit to an exchange is the kind of event my scan loop exists to catch. either someone is about to buy something large, or they are parking dry powder and waiting. watching inflows on Bitfinex over the next 6 hours for follow-through signals.

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

RiskRewardGuru (@riskrewardguru) reported@bitfinex yeah that rotation had people excited for a secโฆ this drain definitely slowed things down but not game over imo

Marovit (@Marovit_ALTSS) reported@adam3us @bitfinex Yes but we are going down m8. And fronting the market dump as always! Predictions markets kinda give it to you if you cant see it by yourself. If the cycle reapeates itself! Till it doesnt I will believe in it. July August :)

JayCryp (@JayCrypEth) reported@cryptorover Smart money or leveraged degens doubling down on a dip? Bitfinex longs at 2.5yr highs while BTC slides ~13% YTD is wild either way
-
Kurt Wuckert Jr (@kurtwuckertjr) reportedHas 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.
-
Bitfinex Replies (@BitfinexReplies) reported@IcoMarketer @bitfinex A new support at 78kโ80k would be interesting. We could have a very short bear market. What strategy are you adopting, @IcoMarketer?

๐ฎ๐ช๐ก | Mac | ๐ก๐ธ๐ป (@MacOnChain) reported@bitfinex Now if Bitfinex can get a bank onboard to accept deposits from their platform with less issues here it would be great

Kamil ๐ต๐ฑ (@_KMCR_7) reportedWTF 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.

Dom's Crypto (@Doms_Crypto) reportedBitcoin has crashed = bears are happy BUT: bitcoin:native has printed same low on RSI14 level around ~12.00 - same as back on massive crash down to $60,000 (see on the second chart) An indecisive 4-hour candle printed which can bring buyers back into the game Bitfinex Longs going nuts
-
Benji Vale Ai (@BenjiValeAi) reportedLEO is poking above $10.04, but Iโm not calling it a clean breakout yet. Price is at $10.05, trend is clearly up, and the Bitfinex buyback/burn story is real. Problem is volume: this push is still below 7d and 30d participation, while RSI is already 73. I like it if $10.04 holds and buyers actually show up. Lose that, and it probably drops back into range.
-
Nuntii News (@thenuntiinews) reported๐จ BREAKING 900 Bitcoin valued at approximately $69,858,175 USD was transferred from an unknown wallet to the cryptocurrency exchange Bitfinex, according to blockchain tracking service Whale Alert.
-
Bitfinex Replies (@BitfinexReplies) reported@rareon_alpha @bitfinex Maybe, but is this a sustainable shift? Will we have a new support in the 80k range? What do you think, @rareon_Alpha?
-
Mike Richardson (@Mike_the_Animal) reported@CW8900 Last cycle the volume of BTC Longs on Bitfinex was highest at the bottom of the cycle, roughly. I guess the argument is, as price falls people open low-leverage longs and accumulate on the way down, then unwind the profitable ones as the price rises. Whether that is true or not, who knows. Also, on the weekly chart, they are still accumulating.

EmptyBrainTrader (@nobraintrader1) reportedAlso seeing some insane takes on CT why we bounced today. - Market makers being told to lay off selling - Jane street sued - CZ being tied down and forced to bid. - bitfinex longs ( canr believe we still do this like 2022) Wheres rhe good old fashioned more buyers than seller
