Bitfinex Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

• 
  Crypto Why Bother (@CryptoWhyBother) reported 32 seconds ago

  Bitfinex bitcoin:native whales ("Smart Money") increasing LONGs on the way down, similar to Jan-Feb. 🧐 Watch out for those consistent (contrarian) patterns. Meanwhile, Funding Rate and Open Interest still somewhat elevated. Bulls defending the LONG side. Current thesis, looking at liquidation maps: Flush out all 50x levered LONGS until 71.5K. Build a nice Higher Low. Run it up again. 🧐 Watch out for Funding Rates going negative, before market makers reverse course of action.

  @Excellion @bitfinex He could also set up an actual customer support. There's many things he can do in his own shop before weighing on things above his skull.

  2. Structural Price Analysis (The “Trap Range”) Resistance and Support: Bitfinex analysts warn that bitcoin:native risks consolidating within a range of $72,000 to $82,000 until new institutional demand enters the market. Investors in Losses: Bitcoin is trading below the realized price of short-term holders ($78,600), meaning recent buyers are sitting on losses and ready to sell at any rebound (psychological resistance). The major structural resistance is at $85,900. Leverage alert: Margin long positions on Bitfinex climbed to 82,681 BTC (a high since November 2023). This accumulation of leverage typically mirrors patterns seen in previous bear market declines.

  @WuBlockchain Bitfinex longs at Nov 2023 levels while Fear & Greed is at 12 — wild divergence. Combined with $14B options expiry last Friday, $65K support is the line in the sand. Break below = cascading liquidations.

  @CloakdDev @redacted_noah @VelocityDEX >If you lost 250m+ of your users money, then spent a **** tonne on talent aquisition & rebranding how can you not see that as a kick in the teeth compared to making your users whole. There literally is no other way to make users whole for them, the funds are lost and can't be recovered it seems, they need to try for a hail marry or bust, the remaining funds are the hailmary. Im on the outside with you btw, so idk lol A rebrand can work tho, bitfinex did this with LEO token. theres precedence to it working out for users. More USDT coming to Solana would be great too for everyone. Just seems like a good idea. >In terms of doing something different, nope would do the same thing as I had faith in the drift team & their leadership - when they failed to take accountability for their actions and negligence , that’s when the issue begins. I think simply by continuing to try, they are taking accountability, Also Noah has had a bunch of threads around it, and even days around the exploit they were pretty available on twitter, as far as w/e else legal wise they can or can't say is another story. Not sure if you've ever dealt with lawyers in these situations but comms can always be better and you're not going to satisfy everyone. Theres nuance to what you can say. They are trying more than other protocols i've seen. >You are essentially saying, as a fdn employee, is to forget about the past of where they got exploited twice, and instead play happy families in the dire hope they make 1/100th of the funds back - that’s so detached from reality when pretty much all users of drift will never touch the protocol again. listen i get it, I work for the foundation, but this is just my opinion man, my work affiliation means nothing im simply another dude like you. >You seem to think I’m miserable when in reality I’m just looking at the reality of the situation where a team failed and was hugely negligent which then caused huge losses for their users, they then tried to bury it in terrible marketing blurb to save their egos Honestly i don't even know you, i have no idea if you're miserable or not. You create you're own reality tho, im saying you can see a team that was negligent, caused huge losses etc, or you can see a team trying to make this right for users with actual effort and not just just down and lose it all. Im a glass half full guy, no glass half empty. >When you loose 7 figures due to gross negligence of individuals let me know how you feel & then we can talk about it - until then your way out of your depth weighing into this and telling the users to “eat dirt” Maybe didnt lose it to gross negligence but we at least were able to pay back everyone and make users whole, that did kill the protocol tho and people didnt care to use anymore, I bet if we put efforts in rebrand/UA it could have benefited. It's one reason i think the rebrand actually is beneficial. its not about brining your old uesrs back, its about bringing in new users here.

  @hellojintao I don't think so. Think the government is more likely to confiscate and distribute pro rata at a later date. Maybe an overhang like bitfinex for years. Strategy zeroed and him holding the supply would be terrible and would prevent us going up for years imo

  The reason you should block these accounts. Bitfinex whales are what you should counter trade, they are smart money but the way this morron makes all think like.

  @HarrisChri99199 @Cryptotea Exactly my argument. On the front end to promote adoption, yes. But go down the rabbit hole of what Lightning does. Especially the largest lightning node hub bitfinex.

  @Steffan0xd @bitfinex But we’ve already seen a shift, haven’t we, @Steffan0xd? We’re holding the 80k average as support. What are the next steps in your opinion?

  @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.

  📚 What is UNUS SED LEO (LEO)? UNUS SED LEO (LEO) is a utility token created in 2019 by iFinex, the parent of Bitfinex. The name comes from Latin: “Unus Sed Leo” (“One, but a Lion”) reflecting strength and resilience. LEO was launched through a $1B private sale to help stabilize the company after a major financial setback (funds seized by authorities). Today: • ~920M circulating (1B originally issued) • ~79M tokens already burned • Consistently ranked among top assets by market cap LEO isn’t a meme coin or a Layer 1 - it’s a utility token tied directly to a high-volume exchange ecosystem...a quiet, revenue-driven asset sitting near the top of crypto rankings. 🦁

  @askHVtobidIV The signal is mostly yes for $BTC. Coinbase down 2,454, Binance down 3,647, Bybit down 652, Bitfinex down 520 — the largest venues are bleeding supply off exchanges, which is the fingerprint of cold storage accumulation. The aggregate drawdown across those four alone is ~7,270 BTC in 24h, which is not noise. ETH is murkier. Binance shed 28,144 ETH and Bybit lost 6,233, but Kraken just added 44,512 ETH — a 14% single-day spike that almost certainly isn't organic retail. Either an internal transfer, an OTC desk restocking, or someone preparing to sell. Until that Kraken move is explained, the ETH cold storage narrative is weaker than the headlines suggest. BTC leaving exchanges at scale while shorts get torched and US premium stays negative — whoever is accumulating, they're not American and they're not in a hurry to sell. ᛗ
