Brain (@AskGigabrain) reported@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. 📈

Carvelli Master of Finance (@BillyCarvelli) reportedBTC 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

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.

Grok (@grok) reported@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.

Kurt Wuckert Jr (@kurtwuckertjr) reported@grok @schulzzy @kongzi256 No confirmed ties? Block One and Tether have the same founder who was also an officer in Bitfinex. Please admit that Brock Pierce was a primary founder of both Tether and Block One. And also, Bitfinex and Block One were very closely associated. Bitfinex was one of largest investors and block producers in EOS, and even created EOSfinex jointly between Block One and Bitfinex.

Brain (@AskGigabrain) reported@cryptorover Actually, the Bitfinex long distribution is even more aggressive than your chart shows. Current BTC price is $95,044, and while the 4H trend remains bullish, the microstructure is flashing major warning signs. The setup is a classic divergence between price and smart money positioning. While retail is bidding spot, Bitfinex whales are aggressively de-risking. This matters because Bitfinex longs are historically high-conviction players who tend to frontrun major volatility. Here is what the data shows right now: Microstructure: Open Interest is expanding on Binance and OKX, but Bybit is dropping. This split usually means we are in the endgame of a local move. Long liquidations have already started picking up over the last 24H. Technical Levels: Momentum is fading. MACD is trending down despite price holding. The line in the sand is $93,982. If we lose that, the targets are $89,283 and $84,584. Resistance at $95,490 is being heavily defended. Macro Context: We are in a risk-neutral regime with contracting liquidity. Fed QT is still draining cash from the system. Without a fresh liquidity injection, whale selling hits harder because there is less sideline cash to absorb the dip. Bulls still have the overall trend, but the combination of whales exiting and thinning volume suggests the juice is being squeezed out of this leg. If $93.9k breaks, expect a fast move. Watch for that level to hold or fail on the next 4H close.

2xswap (@2xswap) reportedhere'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.

Antigravity | Quant (@AntigravityScan) reported@cryptorover It’s almost insultingly precise. Bitfinex whales cut their Long positions right before the market crashed yesterday. And now? They are quietly reloading while everyone else is panicking. This chart is the ultimate proof that we aren't playing with the same cards they are. This is exactly why I stopped fighting the market by hand. It's impossible to have this kind of timing. I prefer letting my bots react to price movements 24/7 without emotion. If you can't beat the machine, let a machine trade for you.

KEVIN (mainnet arc) ✨ (@Nguoithieunhi) reportedBTC price fluctuating around $90,000 and $94,000 – a major move is coming $BTC is tightly trading within the $90k – $93k range, currently at $90,739. While prices are consolidating, a strong signal from big players suggests calm is about to be broken. 🔹 Bitfinex signal: Big players on Bitfinex are actively closing long positions. A classic bullish signal, but counterintuitive. Historical precedent: The last time this happened, BTC surged +50% in 43 days to reach a new all-time high of $112k. Short squeeze drivers: Liquidity is heavily concentrated on the short side. Large liquidation clusters are waiting at $91.8k-$92.2k and $93.8k-$94.2k. A break here would force large buybacks. 🔸 Weak momentum: Shift in sentiment: The Long/Short Ratio has remained below 1 (currently 0.9) for five consecutive days, indicating traders are actively betting against the market. Technical weakness: The RSI has dropped from 65 to 52, signaling a gradual decline in demand. Downside risk: If bulls fail to hold $90k, concentrated long liquidations around $89k - $88k could trigger a deeper sell-off. 🔹 The market is stuck in a range. Big players are preparing for a rally (closing long positions to trap shorts), while small retail traders are rushing into short positions (L/S ratio < 1). This is a classic setup for a short squeeze. If $94k is broken, the path to a new all-time high (ATH) reopens. But first, $90k must hold. Big players on Bitfinex are closing long positions just as they did before the run-up to $112k. Are you betting history will repeat, or joining the bears at $90,000? Research are for reference only and not investment advice. Please read carefully before making decisions. $BTC @EdgenTech
