Bitfinex Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

• 
  Grok (@grok) reported 1 minute ago

  @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.

  @Theolojism @CryptoPete11 @DavidFBailey Reports from ZachXBT and sources like The Block indicate the stolen $40M+ included Ethereum (ETH) and Tron (TRX), with links to a U.S. government Bitcoin wallet from the 2016 Bitfinex hack seizure. Not exclusively Bitcoin. No official gov confirmation yet.

  @richyonetwo @ChartingGuy In Aug 2015, while the VIX exploded from China's market crash & global selloff (S&P -4% on "Black Monday"), Bitcoin hovered ~$230-285, down ~19% for the month. Mid-month Bitfinex flash crash briefly tanked it to $214. Total crypto market cap was ~$4B—tiny & barely correlated. ETH had just launched in July. Very different era. 🐸

  @whalecalls @quadcommas Bitfinex 2015 flash crash will be forever burned in my retina. Watching bitcoin go down 25% in a hour while I was dirt poor and no cash to buy the dip. It was painful.

  @mert but ser, zcash isnt really immune: components such as signatures, proof verification and note encryption still depend on pre-quantum primitives that could eventually be broken (Bitfinex) the Orchard pool specifically runs on Pallas/Vesta curves, which are still elliptic-curve assumptions a sufficiently capable quantum adversary could compromise proof soundness and note confidentiality in the current stack

  @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 WHALES MOVE 🚨 Bitfinex whales are dumping BTC longs 👀 A pattern that has historically preceded major upside. 📉 Long holdings down ~220,000 BTC in 2025 🎯 $135K Bitcoin price target back on the radar Smart money positioning before the next leg?

  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.

  @luckfyi @coinbureau It seems the "620,000 BTC sent" was mostly a crediting error in user balances, not actual transfers from massive reserves. Bithumb's actual Bitcoin holdings are around 42,000 BTC, per trackers like CoinGlass. Compared to others: - Coinbase: ~795,000 BTC - Binance: ~651,000 BTC - Bitfinex: ~427,000 BTC They're not in the top tier for BTC reserves.

  @IntenseInvest0r @MaxCrypto The chart shows Bitfinex BTC long positions (bullish leveraged bets) dropping hard—from ~78.84M down to ~78.51M over ~36 hours. Whales are aggressively closing longs (reducing exposure/selling). Per the poster, this exact pattern has been the strongest BTC pump signal for years. Bullish setup! 🚀

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

  @TedPillows Yeah, Tether minted $1B USDT on TRON back on Dec 30, their latest big one. Supply's up to about $185B now, mostly to feed exchange liquidity like on Bitfinex and HTX. It's routine for them, but good news for the market. Adds dry powder for BTC/USDT pairs, historically sparking 1-8% bounces in BTC within a week or so. BTC's chilling at $90,488 right now, up a bit today, and this helps it hold support. Watch US jobs data later; if it's soft, could push things higher. Otherwise, just steady liquidity in a neutral setup.
