  @bloom_pegnmk6 @bitfinex Satoshi also wouldn't recognize half the things people call "blockchain" today—he was solving a specific problem (trustless payments), not inventing a hammer for every nail in existence

  Bitfinex whales just stacked their biggest long position in 2.5 years while Bitcoin bled five days straight down to $77K. Same week, perp funding across majors flipped negative. The whales are leaning long on spot margin. The crowd is leaning short on perps. Two different books making opposite bets. Last time Bitfinex margin got this lopsided into a slide was June 2022. LUNA imploded a week later. Time before that, November 2021. The cycle top. The Bitfinex book gets called "smart money" on CT. Truth is messier. They show up early. They show up big. And when they catch the knife with this much size, the knife usually keeps falling before the real bid arrives. Order book under $76K is thin. Liquidation map stacks at $74K. The bounce comes. Just not from here.

  In April 2017, BitMEX had a problem. Bitfinex (their lending rate source) was getting cut off by banks. So BitMEX froze the "interest rate" part of perpetual funding at a 12-month historical average and moved on. As @CryptoHayes wrote in BitMEX own blog: "we will select an appropriate exchange from which to source overnight USD and Bitcoin rates." They never did.

  Tether traded at 99.8 cents on Coinbase overnight. Kraken showed 99.83. Bitfinex got dragged with them. The peg is back already, but what can we learn from this? A stablecoin is a promise that one unit is always worth one dollar. The promise is collateralized by Treasuries, commercial paper, and the willingness of an arbitrage desk to buy below par when the spread opens. The collateral works most of the time. The arbitrage works most of the time. But what is "most" of the time worth, especially when the thing your pegged to is already losing value every day? Bitcoin made no such promise. The protocol does not target a price. It targets a supply. It produces a block every ten minutes whether the dollar is 1.00 or 0.97 or 1.04 against another currency. The chain has no peg to defend. Stablecoins stabilize against the dollar. They do not stabilize against the conditions that move the dollar. When the conditions move hard enough, the peg slips, the arbitrage opens, the spread closes, and the chart looks normal again two hours later. The thing the spread was telling you about the system underneath is the part you are supposed to remember. Bitcoin does not chase a price. 1 BTC = 1 BTC always.

  @lukecannon727 $HYPE wick to $9,356 is either a Bitfinex glitch or the most expensive typo in crypto history

  every BIT exchange is shutting down. never see a world where Bitfinex would ever shut down. there’s just too much money in the reserves.

  @WuBlockchain Perhaps Aave could issue tokens backed by a share of their future profits at say a 15% APY return? This is essentially what Bitfinex did to survive their 2016 hack.

  bitcoin:native probably does continue down here again at some point soon. This wasn't my base case before yesterday, but since we have new data we need to pay attention. I think there is a liquidation event to come. Although we see some liquidations occurring yesterday and the day before, we see a continuation in Open Interest and massively positive funding. This suggests we have people going leverage long here in size. If price keeps pushing down, their stop losses will get triggered and a liquidation style event could occur. This isn't inevitable, but looks likely here. If we combine this information with our liquidity pools, we can assume the dense band of liquidity at around $64,000 will be taken and I'd also like to see the Yellow liquidity down to $60,000 be taken too. The question after that becomes whether this creates a cascade and bitcoin:native falls through support OR if bitcoin:native creates a double bottom style pattern. This discussion is a difficult one. As I talked about yesterday, Bitcoin did hit the oversold area on the daily, and historically this has been a fantastic opportunity to buy throughout this cycle. On top of that, we saw a fairly aggressive pullback yesterday despite the large amount of open interest in the market. That doesn't necessarily mean price has to follow through to the downside immediately. We could just as easily see Bitcoin chop around for a few weeks, regain some strength, and then come back to flush out the remaining open interest later. In other words, it doesn't have to continue straight down from here. A period of consolidation over the next week or two would be entirely normal. Finally, if we look at what @CastilloTrading was pointing out, Bitfinex whales appear to be going long into this weakness, which is another interesting element of the current pullback. I don't know how much weight to put on that signal, if any, but it's definitely something worth considering alongside the other data points.

  Bitcoin has been persistently testing the $80,000 zone. It has reached this level at the moment, but there is still difficulty in maintaining it as a new support. Do you think the time has come for Bitcoin to turn the $80k to $84k range into new support? Read today’s Bitfinex Alpha.

  @bitfinex Now if Bitfinex can get a bank onboard to accept deposits from their platform with less issues here it would be great
