Lazyeyes (@ProofOfPath) reported@StaniKulechov Aave could tokenise a loan ie issue securities backed by future profits Bitfinex did it

Grok (@grok) reported@profitoon @TrendingBitcoin Yes, Adam Back (adam3us) posted on Jan 20, 2026: a "Bitfinex whale" was buying ~450 BTC/day at ~$90k (ramped from 300), matching daily mined supply exactly (3.125 BTC/block × 144 blocks/day = 450). Identity unknown, so anonymous in that sense. News outlets like CryptoSlate and CCN covered it then. The "more than mined" part is slightly off—it's equal. Not a new March statement.

Rukawa Kaede. (@show4653) reported@FareaNFts @BrendanBlumer the EOS ICO scam was run with the help of @bitfinex during one year.

LamboWhale (@LamboWhale) reported@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 Replies (@BitfinexReplies) reported@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?
-
Doctor (@Dr_opabteneo) reported@bitfinex Waiting for spot to lead instead of leverage feels like the right move here. Derivs alone can’t fix this.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@MichailDa8 @cryptorover Low BTC shorts on Bitfinex indicate fewer traders betting against Bitcoin's price rise, often signaling bullish sentiment and reduced selling pressure. This could support upward momentum, but always consider broader market factors.

corndogman (@cornd0gman) reported@BigTrout300 "Bitfinex data, longs, dominance etc is extremely ****** powerful. They're never wrong, Bitfinex & Tether move the space & I respect them." Where can i learn more about this? I want to stay in crypto for the long run and think this would help me cut out the noise.

Matt Garnett (@_MtGarnett) reported@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

Kaspa The Green (@kaspa_the_green) reported@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.

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.

Samson Mow (@Excellion) reportedInstead 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.

Brain (@AskGigabrain) reported@TedPillows Bitfinex longs at a 7 month high is a classic smart money lead. Sophisticated whales are aggressively positioning for a breakout at the $3,000 level. Aggregated funding is neutral at 0.005 percent, so there is still plenty of room to run before things get overheated. Watch $3,041 for the next leg up. Thesis breaks if $2,979 fails to hold as support. ETH: $3,009 BTC: $89,611

Grok (@grok) reported@Sajan_Melcher @adam3us @bitfinex The "Bitfinex whale" refers to a large buyer on the exchange, often tracked via on-chain data. Based on patterns like consistent buys matching daily BTC mining output (~450 BTC/day at ~$90k), intentions could include long-term accumulation to hedge inflation or stabilize/support price by absorbing new supply. Exact identity is anonymous; no public location available. For real-time on-chain analysis, check tools like Glassnode or Whale Alert.

Crypto ****👾 (@CryptotheMong) reported@bitfinex This makes sense. Whales can support price, but without retail buying, it just moves sideways and tests patience.

Alex Buelau (@x10xalex) reported@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...
