  @HarrisChri99199 @Cryptotea Exactly my argument. On the front end to promote adoption, yes. But go down the rabbit hole of what Lightning does. Especially the largest lightning node hub bitfinex.

  @Excellion @bitfinex He could also set up an actual customer support. There's many things he can do in his own shop before weighing on things above his skull.

  @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.

  @cryptorover Bitfinex whales hitting cycle highs is a classic smart money accumulation signal. They are clearly betting on a floor here. But the rest of the market is hesitant. Open interest is contracting and volume is very low, which makes the current move feel fragile. BTC is at 88,250. The 4H trend is still bearish and positioning is crowded at a 2.25 long/short ratio globally. If the 88,000 support fails, those longs could get squeezed fast regardless of Bitfinex buying. Whales are loading up, but a trend reversal is not confirmed. Watching for a break back above 89,000 for conviction.

  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.

  @ArdiNSC Distribution idea has a problem Bitfinex whales hold 78835 BTC long only 417 $BTC short that is about 189 to 1 This is not how distribution looks distribution means smart money sells to retail but here big players are mostly buying not selling

  The USG is having a bad day, $24million stolen from Bitfinex by arguably the worst rappers ever, was subsequently re-stolen by a teenager, launching a meme coin and triggering a Whitehouse response on how US Marshalls have lost access to stolen crypto. I'll watch it @netflix

  @cameron Save some ammo guys for when Bitfinex and Binance dump Bitcoin back down overnight $ETH too

  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?

  Centralization cost real points: BNB: 80 → 74.5 (27 super-reps, Binance controls the set) TRX: 72 → 67.5 (same problem) LEO: 48.5 (Bitfinex controls everything, barely listed elsewhere) Logos on a council page ≠ decentralization.

  $27M is 0.9% of their $3B position. That is not a dump, that is a rounding error. More likely Bitfinex margin collateral or OTC facilitation. Track the order book depth on Bitfinex over the next 48h -- if no large market sells appear, this was treasury management, not distribution.

  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.

  @misterrcrypto Bitfinex longs hitting ATH while spot ETF flows are cooling? Classic setup. When leverage peaks and retail FOMO dies down, that's when the real move starts. Watch for the flush before the moon.

  @bitfinex So basically this area decides if we go up or cool down again, right?

  @bitfinex $78.5K break was important; losing that support matters.

  The orderbook is basically telling us where the fight happens next for $BTC The key supply zone sits between $94,000 and $95,000, with roughly $127,417,000 in sell orders stacked there Binance shows the heaviest concentration just above $94K, with thinner liquidity once that wall is cleared Coinbase and Bitfinex both show a similar profile, meaning this is not isolated flow, it is broad market positioning Above $95K, visible liquidity drops off fast, which increases the odds of a sharp continuation if price breaks through If $94k gets accepted and flips to support, this turns into a momentum move. If it fails again, the market likely resets lower and reloads. The next few candles decide whether this is another tease or the real breakout.

  Instead of helping with QC, it would be great if he could just keep Coinbase from going down whenever there’s a spike in trading volume. Maybe he could use some technical support from @bitfinex engineers.

  🚨 Bitcoin options traders are quietly building downside hedges—here's why it matters 📉 Bitfinex data reveals the derivatives market is pricing in sharp moves as weak demand and fragile positioning leave BTC exposed to critical support breaks. When smart money hedges, the market's sending a clear signal. 👀 Are you watching those support levels? What's your read? 🤔 #Bitcoin #Web3 #Crypto

  @cryptorover Bitfinex whales are definitely back at it. The chart shows a massive reduction in long positions just before the drop from $2,900, and that fresh 7,500 ETH spike in longs today confirms they are bidding the $2,700 level. ETH is currently $2,733, down nearly 7% in a day. The crash bottomed at $2,705, which is exactly where these whales started reloading. The data supports a potential bounce here. Funding has flipped negative at -0.0005%, meaning shorts are now paying longs, and RSI is deeply oversold at 28. Usually, when Bitfinex longs spike while retail is fearful and funding is negative, we are close to a local bottom. The level to watch is $2,704. If that holds, the long-side washout is likely over. If it breaks, the next major support is further down near $2,630. For now, smart money is betting on a squeeze.

  Aftermath: TVL cratered from $550M to $230M in an hour. DRIFT token hit all-time low at $0.03343, down 40%+. Solana co-founder Yakovenko proposed a Bitfinex-style IOU airdrop but the community isn't buying it without a viable repayment path

  @vaportoshi Hey, Sounds like their KYC or banking rails are blocking the fiat leg. Bitfinex fiat withdrawals fail before the transfer if something’s off. I can help pinpoint it quickly if they want, there are a couple of checks most people miss

  @RNS7789 @RonSwanonson "Had to hand over the keys", nope. In the Bitfinex case, law enforcement recovered private keys from a cloud account under warrant and seized billions. The state doesn't need your consent, just legal process + access points.

  BTC extends sell-off -2.32% to $82,301 on Bitfinex. Breaks below $83K—2026 low territory amid ETF outflows, higher-for-longer rates narrative & gold rotation. $81K support critical. #Bitcoin #BTC #CryptoMarkets

  @Kristian_Kho I think alot of exchanges got hit with regulatory issues when it came to XMR especially the EU I know they are the biggest anti XMR guys. Do you know where bitfinex is based ? maybe that explains why
