ZEC just tanked 11.79% in 24 hours to $236.85, hitting a low of $228.78 amid high volatility, but this underperforms its milder 7-day dip of -1.98%. With $728.75M in volume and rank #41 at $3.87B market cap, liquidity holds firm on majors like Bitfinex. The post-July 2024 halving has curbed supply issuance—96.2% of max 21M coins already circulating—setting up reduced inflation that historically sparks momentum. Yet, negative funding at -0.0203% and low open interest of $627.75M signal bearish bets without overleverage. Down 92.49% from $3191.93 ATH, ZEC screams undervalued for privacy plays, but persistent selling exposes long-term downtrend risks. This dip looks like an overreaction; support at $228.78 could ignite a short squeeze if buyers step in.

@BTCjunkies The only firm, public, on-record number for U.S. government-held forfeited Bitcoin right now is from a recent FOIA response showing the U.S. Marshals Service (USMS) holds 28,988.35643016 BTC. Beyond that there are multiple large DOJ seizures and forfeiture orders (Bitfinex, the Silk Road recovery, etc.), but custody status and whether coins are “government property” (forfeited) vs “seized / earmarked for victims or return” varies — so totals you see quoted (e.g., ~198k BTC or ~200k BTC) are estimates and include coins that may not be in Marshals custody.

Never had a Binance account. The only CEX I still use for offramp is Bitfinex, which is older than that **** Binance. Get everything off Binance and send CZ back, he's the worst person to idolize in this market. CZ go home or jail

@maxtannahill @bitfinex 1) The increased risk is the much larger files on OP Return blessed by core 2) if you don’t think spam exists and is a problem then we won’t be able to find common ground, 37% of block space is non monetary now 3) we want core to reverse course too, and also discuss BIP 444

@DisIsVirgil As of October 2025, the US government holds about 325,000 BTC, valued at roughly $36 billion, per recent reports from The Block and Arkham Intelligence. These holdings come mainly from law enforcement seizures in criminal cases, such as the Silk Road bust, Bitfinex hack, and a October 2025 forfeiture of 127,000+ BTC from a crypto scam network. Since March 2025, seized BTC contributes to the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, which the government does not sell.

🪙 #Bitcoin’s still stuck around the $108K zone — and it’s starting to feel heavy. Analysts from #Bitfinex warn that ETF outflows (over $1.2B since Oct. 13) are putting pressure on support around $107K–$108K. Without fresh institutional inflows, that level could crack.

@__Con_ @sk230303 The whole cryptoexchange industry has problems You’re right that many of Coinbase’s competitors have faced the same or worse issues, including hacks, insolvencies, fraud, or opaque operations. A few examples: Binance faced multiple regulatory bans (U.K., Canada, Netherlands), lawsuits from the U.S. SEC and CFTC, and founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ) pled guilty to AML violations in 2023 and resigned as CEO. Despite its global volume lead, its reputation took a big hit. FTX as we all rem a catastrophic collapse from outright fraud, wiping out tens of billions in customer funds and destroying confidence across the industry. Kraken paid $30 million to the SEC in 2023 over staking-service violations and remains under scrutiny for other compliance issues. Bitfinex / Tether have long been accused of reserve opacity and faced settlements with regulators. So, yeah Coinbase has its own problems (mainly U.S. regulatory friction and data breaches), it is still considered among the “cleaner” and more compliant exchanges a big reason why institutions and mainstream investors tend to prefer it over offshore competitors. $coin isn’t just a trading fee business anymore. From 95% down to 45% or so.

@Fusionlab88xAI @Danny_Crypton These images from Arkham Intelligence show recent blockchain outflows: - BlackRock's IBIT ETF: Multiple 300 BTC transfers (~$32.7M each) to various addresses. - Binance Hot Wallet: BTC/ETH transfers to exchanges like Bitfinex, Coinbase, MEXC. - Coinbase Prime: BTC/ETH to various wallets. They total ~$1.1B in moves, amid reports of market rebalancing and a crypto dip, with BlackRock shifting some to ETH. Not all outflows mean sales—could be internal or redemptions. BTC is down ~5% today.

💹 Bitcoin bounced off the $107,000 support like it’s got nine lives 🐱👤 but the bulls face a brick wall near $112,000 to $116,000. Bears haven’t thrown in the towel yet. Consolidation—not reversal—is the name of the game, say Bitfinex analysts.

@CatoTheElder17 @bitfinex 1) Core isn’t “allowing” anything. It’s been trivial to add arbitrary data to the protocol since the earliest days. OP_RETURN is a better place for it than elsewhere. The block size ensures it cannot be considered “large” by any definition of the term.
