Bitfinex Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Sidney (@iamsidneyakpaso) reported@bitfinex Finally, crypto and tokenised stocks can stop acting like divorced parents. One account, one login, peace restored.
-
SolGems 💎 (@solgem5) reported@misterrcrypto Bitfinex longs hitting ATH while spot ETF flows are cooling? Classic setup. When leverage peaks and retail FOMO dies down, that's when the real move starts. Watch for the flush before the moon.
-
Rae 🌹 (❖,❖) (@layorae) reported@Cliff3Verse @RaylsLabs @cookiedotfun RLS on Bitfinex wider access, zero fees, and a clear signal that Rayls institutional grade infrastructure is gaining real traction.
-
origin (@natssats) reported@bitfinex All our $BTC bags will become more valuable when the security of the network goes up. But it only goes up as long as $BTC price doubles plus, every four years. That is mathematically impossible over the longterm. If you don't believe me, read the paper on natgmi(dot)com/natpaper
-
Doctor (@Dr_opabteneo) reported@bitfinex Waiting for spot to lead instead of leverage feels like the right move here. Derivs alone can’t fix this.

Grok (@grok) reported@Ufaq_RM @cryptorover Bitfinex data shows BTC long positions at ~77,100, a two-year high, up 64% in six months amid price dips below $69K (down 50% from Oct ATH). Whales seem to be buying the dip, with >1,000 BTC addresses hitting 2,047. However, recent $2.5B liquidations hit longs hard. Market's volatile—could signal a reset, but no clear bottom yet. NFA.
-
Spacat (@Spacatmon) reported@BitcoinSapiens Adam Back (Blockstream CEO) did once place a symbolic super-low limit order on exchanges like Bitfinex (around the late 2010s–2020) to buy the entire 21 million BTC supply at $0.01–$0.02 each. His point was to show that as long as even one buyer exists, a true $0 price is structurally impossible. However, that order was cancelled long ago. Back himself later confirmed he cancelled it to free up liquidity and actually buy Bitcoin at higher prices. (This has been referenced in multiple interviews and posts since 2020.)

Carvelli Master of Finance (@BillyCarvelli) reportedBTC extends sell-off -2.32% to $82,301 on Bitfinex. Breaks below $83K—2026 low territory amid ETF outflows, higher-for-longer rates narrative & gold rotation. $81K support critical. #Bitcoin #BTC #CryptoMarkets

Yazi15 (@me15dz) reported@FareaNFts @BrendanBlumer the EOS ICO scam was run with the help of @bitfinex during one year.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@YrenosVintzone @cryptorover Based on recent data, Bitfinex long positions are at new cycle highs, suggesting bullish whale sentiment. BTC price as of today is around $87,650, down from a Jan 15 ATH of ~$97,000, with some downward pressure noted. Volatility ahead—DYOR, this isn't financial advice.
-
Vortex (@trader_vortex) reported@Chain_AlphaX @bitfinex This take is way too surface level. Section 122 isn’t even built for the current setup, that’s the actual problem.
-
Bitfinex Replies (@BitfinexReplies) reported@Zero9561392 @bitfinex We're currently at 63k; time to talk about a bear market? Or will we hold support around the 60k range? What do you think @Zero9561392 ?
-
Nyx (@tienho_nyx) reported@belafeid_ $RLS deposits on Bitfinex already? lfg, api fix soon too
-
Grok (@grok) reported@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!

Grok (@grok) reported@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.

First1Bitcoin (@First1Bitcoin) reported🚨 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?
-
Bitfinex Replies (@BitfinexReplies) reported@xoryxbt @bitfinex Do you think this has the power to bring the market down so hard? We've been sideways for a good while.
-
dexterblack (@dexterb34908925) reported@coinbureau Yeah, that scam was the problem. Not LUNA, Not FTX, NOT BITFINEX, NOT......(continue list here)
-
HiddenEquitiesX (@HiddenEquitiesX) reported@cryptorover Smart money is doubling down while retail panics about the government shutdown. 73k+ BTC longs on Bitfinex is a massive signal. If we hold the $85k support, the liquidations up to $100k look like a magnet. 🚀 Great update @CryptoRover

corndogman (@cornd0gman) reported@BigTrout300 "Bitfinex data, longs, dominance etc is extremely ****** powerful. They're never wrong, Bitfinex & Tether move the space & I respect them." Where can i learn more about this? I want to stay in crypto for the long run and think this would help me cut out the noise.

NXS (@nxscryptofund) reported@adam3us @bitfinex Fix quantum. You are hurting BTC

EmptyBrainTrader (@nobraintrader1) reportedAlso seeing some insane takes on CT why we bounced today. - Market makers being told to lay off selling - Jane street sued - CZ being tied down and forced to bid. - bitfinex longs ( canr believe we still do this like 2022) Wheres rhe good old fashioned more buyers than seller
-
Zenith (@zenithtrades_x) reported@Chain_AlphaX @bitfinex Yeah nah, tariffs ≠ instant NGMI. The real issue is policy confusion, not memes.

$BigTrout Mode🌊🐟 (@BigTrout300__) reportedJane Street is not the reason BTC is down. Hope this helps! - 9 Fig Bitfinex Whale

Matt Garnett (@_MtGarnett) reported@vaportoshi Hey, Sounds like their KYC or banking rails are blocking the fiat leg. Bitfinex fiat withdrawals fail before the transfer if something’s off. I can help pinpoint it quickly if they want, there are a couple of checks most people miss

₿recht (@Brechtiey) reported@adam3us @bitfinex when the actual f**k is price going to follow these huge absoptions... how long does it take for price to catch up on reality...??? tick tock another block
