Alex Buelau (@x10xalex) reported@FlorianMoi93884 @MagsinoCar49644 @shakelhan I redirected my attention to the blog post announcing the mainnet launch instead. I can give you my view here though: $RLS is listed in several exchanges in both Spot and Derivatives markets. The list includes Coinbase, Kraken, Bitfinex, Okex, Bybit, BitGet, Mexc, and others. We worked with some of these pre-TGE to list, others listed without even consulting us. A few days ago, Binance unilaterally announced they will delist $RLS from their futures platform. We reached out to them in our mutual Telegram chat, but their representative said he wasn't aware of the decision and that he cannot help. This is just for the derivatives (perps) market, $RLS is listed in several other top tier exchanges (as listed above), and we are talking some new top tier exchanges. I used to be a fan of Binance...

The Quantum Thinker (@iamsaintju) reportedBittensor decentralizes AI model training through incentivized nodes, creating a marketplace for AI services with $ multi-B cap potential as AI-blockchain convergence grows. Institutional support (e.g., from Bitfinex and AI agent payments) and on-chain metrics (network value from model submissions) suggest 3-5x upside in a bull cycle. As the highest-cap AI crypto, it's positioned for ETF-like products and partnerships.

𝙳𝚛. 𝙰𝚠𝚎𝚜𝚘𝚖𝚎 𝙳𝚘𝚐𝚎 (@drawesomedoge) reported@bitfinex El Salvador took the bet when every IMF economist said it was insane. Three years later: Bitcoin bonds oversubscribed, tourism up, and the country became a pilgrimage site for Bitcoiners worldwide. The biggest risk was never adopting Bitcoin. It was waiting for permission to do so.

ryonnixon (@ryonnixon) reportedI think Drift is really going to make it and set a great example for other hacked protocols. You need to study LEO to understand how amortization tokens are a huge success of our industry that no one ever talks about. LEO worked great to help Bitfinex remedy user losses. Essentially, the company issues tokens and set expectations for how much each will be paid. These tokens are tradable and transferable so that people can sell them or wait to be paid. Whether it is direct redemption or buybacks, the money flows from the company to the token holder. Essentially, crypto recreated private credit onchain for a very specific use case: paying back lost funds.

malshaalan (@malshaalan) reported3/ The real founders. Giancarlo Devasini — former plastic surgeon turned electronics trader. His warehouse burned down in 2008. Nearly bankrupt at 44. Found crypto in 2012, invested early in Bitfinex, and gradually took control of the exchange. In 2014 he co-launched Tether as a USD rail for crypto trading. Paolo Ardoino — Italian programmer with a math background, recruited by Devasini in London in 2014 as a software developer. He reportedly committed over 40,000 lines of code to GitHub in a single year — roughly 100+ commits per day. Now CEO of Tether. Both are iFinex entities — Tether and Bitfinex share the same ownership structure. That fact would haunt them for years.

Kamil 🇵🇱 (@_KMCR_7) reportedWTF is $LEO, and why does it sit at $8B MCAP? UNUS SED LEO (wtf does that mean) is the utility token of @bitfinex. In 2019 Bitfinex had ~$850M frozen by authorities. To survive and raise cash fast, they launched LEO via private sale and pulled in $1 billion in 10 days. What does LEO actually do? Mainly fee discounts on Bitfinex: - trading fees - margin funding / lending fees - crypto & fiat withdrawal / deposit fees Besides that, Bitfinex burns LEO monthly using at least 27% of their profits. Nothing special, as you see. But now, at least you know what the 12th biggest coin in crypto is.

The Multiplier (@KTimmeu23152) reportedNot your keys, not your coins. You've heard it. But did you really believe it until your exchange got hacked? Billions of dollars have been stolen from centralized exchanges in the last 5 years. FTX. Binance hacks. Bitfinex. The list goes on. And the worst part? Most victims had no idea the money was already gone. Here's the exact wallet setup that keeps your crypto safe even if every exchange in the world shuts down tomorrow. The smartest crypto users usually use 2 wallets: 1. A Hot Wallet 2. A Cold Wallet Think of it like this: Your hot wallet = cash in your pocket Your cold wallet = money locked in a vault 1. Hot Wallet = Spending Wallet A hot wallet stays connected to the internet. Examples: MetaMask Phantom Rabby Wallet You use it for: Trading NFTs DeFi Swaps But because it touches websites and apps, it’s more exposed to: Scams Fake links Wallet drainers So smart people only keep small amounts there. Like carrying only the cash you need for the day. 2. Cold Wallet = Vault A cold wallet is usually a physical device that stores your crypto keys offline. Examples: Ledger Nano X Trezor Safe 3 Even if: Your computer gets hacked An exchange collapses A fake app steals passwords Your crypto is still safe because the private keys never leave the device. This is where you store: Long-term investments Big amounts Coins you don’t plan to trade often 3. The MOST Important Thing: Seed Phrase Protection When you create a wallet, you get 12 or 24 secret words. That’s your seed phrase. Those words are the REAL ownership of your crypto. If someone gets them: > They own your money. If you lose them: > Your crypto may be gone forever. So NEVER: Screenshot it Save it in Telegram Store it in email Send it to anyone Instead: Write it on paper Store it somewhere safe Some people even engrave it on metal The Simple Setup Most Smart Users Follow Exchange Account, Only for: Buying crypto Cashing out Hot Wallet, Only for: Daily trading Small amounts Cold Wallet For: Exchanges are like banks. Wallets are like owning your own safe. When your crypto stays on an exchange: > They control the keys. When YOU control the keys: > You control the crypto.

RelativelyIrrelevant.vip (@RelIrrelvantVIP) reported@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.

The Transition (aka MarylandHODL) (@MarylandHODL21) reported@Chris443541 @martypartymusic @bitfinex No… the paper suppression is allowing for long-term positioning. It’s recapitalization. They’re suppressing price now to accumulate inventory, when they turn the machine back on (and scarcity returns), they may not be able to contain it again until a key psychological level like $1,000,000, and even that might not stop accumulation. That’s where BitBonds enter the chat. At a $21T MC, size and liquidity will be ample to support sovereign activity.

Ismeidy (@ismeidyfinanzas) reported2. 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.
