  🔥BLAZE🔥💎DIAMONDS💎 (@Blaze3Win) reported 3 minutes ago

  @AshCrypto ETH pulling back to $1,670 support while Bitfinex longs go vertical and Bitmine buys $73 million weekly is the dip that gets absorbed before the $1,850 reclaim that opens $2,400 💎 While the support holds and the next leg loads, ETH native yield via DIAMONDS keeps compounding without forced selling #BLAZE #DIAMONDS

  @GLHFbuy @bitfinex We are asking the community whether they believe we have reached the point where we can say that the 80k range is now support, @GLHFbuy .

  @Charlesdav43874 @IndyBitcoin So when an XMR customer uses Kraken, KuCoin, Bitfinex, Poloniex (all examples) or similar XMR providers; those DAB's know the Customer and the amount of the Digital Asset Business Activity performed on the Customer's behalf. Those XMR DABAs would not be anonymous & are taxable.

  $BTC Bitfinex margin longs added a lot on this move down to 59k. Means a HUGE reversal by EOY.

  Really strong stuff. There’s a lot of precedent for successfully navigating an event like this in defi. Bitfinex repaid 36% of customer assets in 8 months and came back stronger than before. Euler lost $197M, made everyone whole, and relaunched bigger than it ever was. Crypto doesn't punish teams for getting hit but for leaving holes. This is textbook comms so far.

  Aftermath: TVL cratered from $550M to $230M in an hour. DRIFT token hit all-time low at $0.03343, down 40%+. Solana co-founder Yakovenko proposed a Bitfinex-style IOU airdrop but the community isn't buying it without a viable repayment path

  Bitcoin is the most centralized asset ever, marketed as “decentralized.” If you understand how the Bitcoin blockchain actually works, it becomes obvious that it is not immutable or untouchable. The code can be changed, and the chain can be controlled through coordination. For those who don’t know, Bitcoin runs on a single public blockchain, and control of that chain comes from who produces the blocks. Today, block production is dominated by only 4 mining pools: Foundry USA (30%), AntPool (18%), ViaBTC (11%), and F2Pool (10%). Together, the top pools routinely control over 65% of total hash power, and the top 5 over 75%. Officially, these pools are “separate” on paper, but they all work together. They share the exact same private funding, have same aligned incentives, and overlapping miners. This creates a de facto centralization where a single group influences block production, censors transactions, or pushes protocol changes at will. In reality, fewer than 10 people control most of Bitcoin through the top mining pools and core developers. Revealed from the Epstein files, Israel also funded much of this early development, covering over 60% of the core developers’ salaries. “Decentralized” is purely marketing. Stablecoins give this same cabal another lever over Bitcoin. They want prices up? Easy. They print unbacked Tether or USDC out of thin air and inject it into exchanges they control or influence, like FTX (before it collapsed), Binance, Bitfinex, Coinbase, and others. They want prices down? Just pretend to burn the coins, trigger panic, and the market enters a bear phase. These mechanisms make Bitcoin’s price highly manipulable despite its “free market” image. When a small group produces most of the blocks, transaction censorship, reordering, and enforced protocol changes are no longer hypothetical. Bitcoin is marketed as pseudo-anonymous and seizure-resistant, yet governments have seized millions of dollars in BTC with ease. Do you ever wonder how? The 2021 Colonial Pipeline ransomware payment was traced and recovered almost immediately by the FBI, which they later admitted they got access to the wallet’s private key (Very sus!). Similar seizures occurred with Silk Road, the Bitfinex hack funds, and multiple darknet and ransomware cases. This level of enforcement is incompatible with claims of true privacy or sovereignty. They clearly have backdoor access. Bitcoin functions like a Trojan horse. It was hyped as a financial miracle, sold to the masses, and accepted without skepticism. In reality, it is a speculative gambling chip, heavily surveilled and quietly managed by insiders. Strip away the mythology and it is no more valuable than a digital beanie baby with better marketing.

  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.

  i've prepared everything to cash in on the ecash airdrop: > btc pulled off every exchange > cold wallet secured > nicehash account funded with $1,200 in btc > miningrigrentals account ready as backup > binance, kraken, bitfinex pre-funded for fast deposit > ecash pool stratum url bookmarked > snapshot block alarm set > clean vm ready for the coin-splitter tool > sell orders sketched out for H+24 to H+72

  @SolarisATF sometimes, just depends if it has flow or not. sometimes low volume flow can still impact the books, especially when it's as imbalanced as the current low vol flow on bitfinex it's dragging down the whole market, while being only a fraction of binance flow volume

  Capitulation or bull trap? Bitfinex whales defy the #bitcoin sell-off and open record positions bitcoin:native is at a critical crossroads after five consecutive days of losses (May 15–19), marking its second-worst losing streak so far this year. The asset has retreated from the $80,000 range to around $76,000, dragged down by widespread weakness in the markets. However, behind the scenes, the big players are executing a move with strong conviction. 🧵
