  @bitfinex This makes sense. Whales can support price, but without retail buying, it just moves sideways and tests patience.

  @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)

  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.

  @Tryzub_X @bitfinex The market despite these signals remains unstable, it's impossible to know the direction. What you think about it? Feel free to follow us @Tryzub_X.

  @xoryxbt @bitfinex Do you think this has the power to bring the market down so hard? We've been sideways for a good while.

  @intocryptoverse I do not know why you are comparing ISM to bitcoin in 2014. Bitcoin had no macro narrative at that time. It was a play of handful people with issues like Mt Gox, bitfinex hack etc. Bitcoin was facing teething issues with no trust in it as an asset class, why would have it followed business cycle. 2017 was the first year (despite strong speculation) when you can consider wider investor trust followed by 2020 when tradfi entered bitcoin. So comparing its move with ISM is useless in 2014. Check SPX / NDX during that time both went up approx 18% during the year. You are becoming Analysis Paralysis.

  @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.

  @0xhypeSol @RaylsLabs Bitfinex listing lends credibility, but RWA tokenization faces adoption hurdles beyond just institutional access.

  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?

  🚨 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

  the white house defended the release of ilya lichtenstein, tied to the 2016 bitfinex hack of over 119,000 $BTC, from prison to home confinement without taking credit for the action. rumors of a u.s. gov $BTC sell tied to samourai are overstated; on-chain shows forfeited coins moved into coinbase prime custody with no confirmed sale. kamino prime processed $285m in 24 days from tokenized mortgage debt with figure technologies helocs flowing through defi; $KMNO is $0.0614, down 25.8% from october highs.

  @Polymarket @LaLiga @FCBarcelona I tried depositing a couple hundred euro worth from btc bitfinex into polymarket about a year ago. Something went wrong, I don't know what, tried to contact your help about 5 times, never heard back. Money gone who knows where?

  @Junior_TheDog @AshCrypto Closing long positions means selling BTC (or unwinding bets on price rises), which can temporarily pressure prices down. However, when whales do this rapidly (like on Bitfinex), it often signals profit-taking at highs, clearing over-leveraged positions. Historically, this has preceded pumps, as seen in the 50% rally from $74k to $112k—possibly because it resets the market for new buying. Opening longs would indeed build bullish momentum, but closings can mark the end of a dip before uplift. Always DYOR!
