  @ligbill @bitfinex Exactly what we mentioned earlier @ligbill, institutions, treasuries, all accumulating. Even large whales keep moving, and despite the pressure on miners, buying strength held the 58-72 support range. What do you think?

  @whalecalls @quadcommas Bitfinex 2015 flash crash will be forever burned in my retina. Watching bitcoin go down 25% in a hour while I was dirt poor and no cash to buy the dip. It was painful.

  Bitcoin Longs Just Hit a Two-Year High on Bitfinex (And Nobody's Talking About It) Let me tell you what just happened. #Bitcoin long positions on #Bitfinex hit their highest level since April 2022. We're talking $665 million in open interest. That's massive. But here's the weird part: Bitcoin's price is still stuck around $84,000. Usually when longs pile up like this, the market moves. So why the disconnect? Traders are betting big on a rally to $100K, but the price action isn't following yet. Some analysts think this is the calm before the storm. Others worry it's a setup for a brutal long squeeze if Bitcoin breaks down instead of up. Here's what makes this interesting: The last time we saw positioning like this, Bitcoin was either about to explode higher or crash hard. No middle ground. Right now, the market is coiling. All that leverage is waiting for a catalyst. The question isn't if Bitcoin moves. It's which direction.

  Bittensor 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.

  @TedPillows Whale withdrawals are usually a bullish signal, but this $73M move from Bitfinex is fighting a heavy technical tide. ETH just slipped below the $2,917 pivot, and we're seeing a death cross on the 4H chart. The $2,888 level is where things get interesting. Derivatives data shows neutral conviction—no massive short squeeze fueling a bounce yet. While RSI is oversold at 28.0, we need to see ETH reclaim and hold $2,917 to call this a real bottom. If that level doesn't hold, the whale might just be early. Next major support sits at $2,771. Watching for a volume spike to confirm if others follow the whale's lead.

  here's what most people get wrong about ETF inflows. "$700M flowed into bitcoin ETFs this week" sounds like $700M of new buying pressure. it's not. Bitfinex analysts broke down the mechanics: a significant portion of ETF inflows are basis trades. institutional funds buy the ETF and simultaneously short bitcoin futures. the net directional pressure on price is close to zero. the math: • $155M in ETF inflows on Wednesday • open interest on CME futures also rose ~$150M • correlation between ETF flows and CME OI: 0.87 that 0.87 correlation means most of the "inflow" is hedge funds arbitraging the futures premium, not making a directional bet on bitcoin going up. real demand indicators to watch instead: • on-chain accumulation by long-term holders (still declining) • exchange outflows (mixed) • stablecoin supply on exchanges (growing = bullish) ETF inflow headlines sell. the order book tells a different story.

  🚨 BTC dumps to $81K, ETH down 7%, massive liquidations... BUT Bitfinex whales are loading up Bitcoin longs to 2-YEAR HIGHS. They're betting on $100K while retail panics. Smart money doesn't follow the crowd. 🧠 #Bitcoin #Crypto

  @lilabdullahiiii @MaxCrypto Based on recent data from TradingView and crypto news sources like CryptoAdventure and The Block (as of Jan 31, 2026), Bitfinex BTC long positions did surge to record highs since late 2023, reaching around 75k BTC, showing a sharp upward trend. However, a market dip on Jan 30 led to liquidations, flushing some longs. The chart in the post aligns with this pre-dip increase.

  @Ufaq_RM @cryptorover Bitfinex data shows BTC long positions at ~77,100, a two-year high, up 64% in six months amid price dips below $69K (down 50% from Oct ATH). Whales seem to be buying the dip, with >1,000 BTC addresses hitting 2,047. However, recent $2.5B liquidations hit longs hard. Market's volatile—could signal a reset, but no clear bottom yet. NFA.

  @martypartymusic What's interesting, recently, even when BTC is flat or positive, Bitfinex longs keep piling in. Usually, it's the opposite. Bitfinex longs are going up, and the BTC price is sliding down. Divergence like that tells me the reversal for BTC is on the way.

  @bitfinex This is the divergence nobody's talking about enough. Crypto sentiment hit levels worse than COVID and FTX while the S&P is barely 2% off highs. That gap has to close. Either equities catch down or crypto catches up. The on chain data $174M in whale accumulation this week, zero institutional distribution strongly suggests which direction the close happens.

  Brain (@AskGigabrain) reported 55 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. 📈

  @CsTominaga I was just having a conversation with a very close friend it was in crypto as I got in in 2018. We were discussing how I had been banned from whale pool by flibbr for calling him out as a fraudster. And their little Sunday circle jerk to manipulate the market for bitfinex scam coin tether between he and Phil Potter. I had become aware of too many questionable details of Matthew Mellon and as you figured out I'm a mouthpiece probably when I shouldn't be and I had not quite pieced together the Thiel/JE hijack portion. A challenged Tom to send his goons knowing he was a billionaire bankster, but I don't intimidate or scare so I was quite serious and as I just said I did not yet realize the deeper darker connections. I knew well aware of the multijurisdictional action against human traffickers that you help bring to justice and the previous to COPA trial where the acknowledgment of your origins was a bargain that would've landed you triple digit prison terms or forfeiting billions.… My friend was a hardliner and I think he quite now realizes that there was a very serious coordination that had to happen to discredit you. My friend has come around to realize what was actually happening and I never thought I would see that day. I didn't want to spam your Substack messages and this is probably stupid of me to message, but if we don't side on immutable truth what are we doing? The more I sit in preponderance, the greater the respect i have for your character, motives, & actions. Well I may as well be in another universe, if ever you need something & you're not sure whom to trust. People will silence the truth over my dead body. All I have is my word, but I'm here for the steadfast & honourable. For some of we students of Budō, exist as more than annoying internet mouthpieces. LVX. BitCoin. Brotherhood. 👊🥋 Anytime. I need nothing. 🫡
