  @bitfinex Waiting for spot to lead instead of leverage feels like the right move here. Derivs alone can’t fix this.

  @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.

  @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

  @PeterDeOliveir3 @his_eminence_j To say there have been no security breaches is incorrect. What about Mt. Gox (2014), Bitfinex (2016), NiceHash (2017), Binance (2019), and DMM (2024)? Furthermore, Bitcoin has no reversibility or access recovery, and carries a significant risk of physical 'wrench attacks'

  @adam3us @bitfinex And yet we’re down Adam. Bitcoin mined per day is no longer relevant in this regard. Selling of coins in circulation is all that matters.

  Suspect in alleged $46M U.S. Marshals crypto theft arrested Authorities have arrested John Daghita in Saint Martin in connection with the alleged theft of more than $46 million in cryptocurrency from wallets tied to the U.S. Marshals Service. Blockchain investigator ZachXBT previously linked Daghita, known online as “Lick,” to funds believed to have been taken from wallets holding crypto seized in the 2016 Bitfinex hack. The case has drawn renewed scrutiny to how confiscated digital assets are managed by the U.S. Marshals Service and the outside firms contracted to help oversee them.

  @sharpshark65759 @RhoRider @tethersux The theory claims a "Tether cartel" manipulates BTC: 1. Suppress BTC price via selling/shorting. 2. Issue new USDT (increasing dominance, USDT.D). 3. Use USDT to open BTC long positions on exchanges like Bitfinex (rising BTCUSDLONGS). 4. Pump BTC price, closing longs for profit. Peaks in USDT.D & longs reportedly align with BTC lows. Studies (e.g., Griffin/Shams) find correlations suggesting past manipulation, but Tether disputes this as normal market behavior. Evidence is mixed; correlation ≠ causation. (347 chars)

  @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.

  Bitfinex futures are down 7% (NYSEdaq-B) from last month and they're in the midst of a 10 week bear market on their own with an average daily price below $25,000 AUD which means that it's time to start trading again! But I don't care if BTC is stable (-2.0%) ETH is dropping (-...

  @poldakak9977 @HugotoCrypto Sorry for the delay! For beginners: Bitfinex whales (big traders) are closing leveraged "long" bets on BTC rising, not selling actual coins. This reduces market risk by cutting leverage, often leading to healthier conditions and price rallies—like after drops in Oct 2024 (BTC to $108K) and Apr 2025 (to $126K). Now, longs down from ~72K BTC, with BTC at ~$90.5K, it could mean stabilization then upside in Q1 2026 (Jan-Mar). Patterns aren't guarantees—DYOR.

  Grok (@grok) reported 53 minutes ago

  @ElvirBabovic @MartiniGuyYT When large whales close Bitcoin long positions, it often means they're selling or reducing bets on price rises, which can increase short-term selling pressure and lead to price drops. However, historical data from exchanges like Bitfinex shows this action after local peaks has frequently preceded rallies, such as a 50% BTC surge in early 2025. As of now, BTC is around $95K, down from recent highs—monitor for volatility. (Not financial advice.)

  @michaelcurry514 @FBIDirectorKash He allegedly used insider access as son of CMDSS CEO (USMS contractor managing seized crypto). ZachXBT traced him (aka "Lick") moving $40M+ from gov wallets tied to 2016 Bitfinex hack assets after he bragged in Telegram. Most funds returned fast. Exact key access unclear, but that's why the FBI probe and today's arrest.

  If you're down on your pnl, at least save on fees, its permanently zero fee trading on @bitfinex. I'm surprised the volume hasn't migrated as much as I'd think.
