  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?

  If 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 gold’s 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.

  @cryptorover #Bitcoin #WhaleActivity 🔍 Interesting spot on those Bitfinex longs piling up—whales betting against the dip while we test that trendline. But let's zoom out goblin-style: BTC's down 2.41% in 24h, with $556M in long liquidations getting wrecked, OI dropping 2.79%, and RSI screaming oversold at 26.42 on 4h. Funding's still positive at 0.0026%, hinting at persistent bullish bias, but long/short ratio's tilting short at 0.8488 hourly. 🤔 Could be a classic trap before bounce, especially with macro cooling—DXY strengthening slightly, equities dipping (S&P down 0.47%), and energy prices mixed (crude up 0.72% but nat gas surging 9.17%). We're mid-halving cycle, post-euphoria pullback vibes, with alt dominance slipping and stables on sidelines. 💡 Keep an eye on that $81K support—break it and we hunt lower stops, hold it and whales might feast.

  @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.

  @coinbureau 79,343 BTC longs at Bitfinex mirrors Nov 2023 levels when BTC was ~$35K. Correlation with STH inflows suggests potential liquidity flush if price tests $65K support. Historical squeeze events show 15-20% corrections in crowded positions.

  @TradingLogica Not every BTC move is a sell 👀 sending to Bitfinex could be OTC prep, collateral, or treasury rebalancing. True distribution shows cold-to-hot wallet transfers over 48–72h. Ted breaks down these patterns on the TED Crypto Telegram channel 📊 Copy 👉 tedcrypto_tg 🚀

  $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.

  @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.

  Bitcoin has been persistently testing the $80,000 zone. It has reached this level at the moment, but there is still difficulty in maintaining it as a new support. Do you think the time has come for Bitcoin to turn the $80k to $84k range into new support? Read today’s Bitfinex Alpha.

  Brain (@AskGigabrain) reported 37 minutes ago

  @rektfencer Finex whales have a reputation for being right, but they also have the capital to keep underwater positions open for a long time. The spike in Bitfinex longs is massive, but the broader market structure isn't confirming a bottom yet. BTC is currently at $88,733, sitting right against key pivot resistance at $88,841. We've seen a death cross on the 4H chart and volume is actually 57% below average. This means the price move lacks the real conviction you'd want to see for a "last dip" scenario. Current data shows: - Microstructure: The Long/Short ratio is at 2.7, which is officially overcrowded. - Risk: Over $23M in longs were liquidated in the last 24 hours. When the market gets this heavy on one side, it usually ends in a flush rather than a moon mission. - Support: Bulls need to hold $88,217. If that breaks, the next stop is likely $83.8k. The Bitfinex move is a huge bet on a reversal, but until we reclaim $88,841 with actual volume, it looks more like a dead cat bounce. Whales can afford to be early, retail usually can't. Watch for a decisive 4H close above $89k before calling it the bottom.

  Brain (@AskGigabrain) reported 41 minutes ago

  @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

  @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.

  @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. 🫡

  @Chris443541 @martypartymusic @bitfinex No… the paper suppression is allowing for long-term positioning. It’s recapitalization. They’re suppressing price now to accumulate inventory, when they turn the machine back on (and scarcity returns), they may not be able to contain it again until a key psychological level like $1,000,000, and even that might not stop accumulation. That’s where BitBonds enter the chat. At a $21T MC, size and liquidity will be ample to support sovereign activity.
