  Bittensor 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.

  BTC price fluctuating around $90,000 and $94,000 – a major move is coming $BTC is tightly trading within the $90k – $93k range, currently at $90,739. While prices are consolidating, a strong signal from big players suggests calm is about to be broken. 🔹 Bitfinex signal: Big players on Bitfinex are actively closing long positions. A classic bullish signal, but counterintuitive. Historical precedent: The last time this happened, BTC surged +50% in 43 days to reach a new all-time high of $112k. Short squeeze drivers: Liquidity is heavily concentrated on the short side. Large liquidation clusters are waiting at $91.8k-$92.2k and $93.8k-$94.2k. A break here would force large buybacks. 🔸 Weak momentum: Shift in sentiment: The Long/Short Ratio has remained below 1 (currently 0.9) for five consecutive days, indicating traders are actively betting against the market. Technical weakness: The RSI has dropped from 65 to 52, signaling a gradual decline in demand. Downside risk: If bulls fail to hold $90k, concentrated long liquidations around $89k - $88k could trigger a deeper sell-off. 🔹 The market is stuck in a range. Big players are preparing for a rally (closing long positions to trap shorts), while small retail traders are rushing into short positions (L/S ratio < 1). This is a classic setup for a short squeeze. If $94k is broken, the path to a new all-time high (ATH) reopens. But first, $90k must hold. Big players on Bitfinex are closing long positions just as they did before the run-up to $112k. Are you betting history will repeat, or joining the bears at $90,000? Research are for reference only and not investment advice. Please read carefully before making decisions. $BTC @EdgenTech

  @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...

  @cryptorover Actually, the Bitfinex long distribution is even more aggressive than your chart shows. Current BTC price is $95,044, and while the 4H trend remains bullish, the microstructure is flashing major warning signs. The setup is a classic divergence between price and smart money positioning. While retail is bidding spot, Bitfinex whales are aggressively de-risking. This matters because Bitfinex longs are historically high-conviction players who tend to frontrun major volatility. Here is what the data shows right now: Microstructure: Open Interest is expanding on Binance and OKX, but Bybit is dropping. This split usually means we are in the endgame of a local move. Long liquidations have already started picking up over the last 24H. Technical Levels: Momentum is fading. MACD is trending down despite price holding. The line in the sand is $93,982. If we lose that, the targets are $89,283 and $84,584. Resistance at $95,490 is being heavily defended. Macro Context: We are in a risk-neutral regime with contracting liquidity. Fed QT is still draining cash from the system. Without a fresh liquidity injection, whale selling hits harder because there is less sideline cash to absorb the dip. Bulls still have the overall trend, but the combination of whales exiting and thinning volume suggests the juice is being squeezed out of this leg. If $93.9k breaks, expect a fast move. Watch for that level to hold or fail on the next 4H close.

  @Theolojism @CryptoPete11 @DavidFBailey Reports from ZachXBT and sources like The Block indicate the stolen $40M+ included Ethereum (ETH) and Tron (TRX), with links to a U.S. government Bitcoin wallet from the 2016 Bitfinex hack seizure. Not exclusively Bitcoin. No official gov confirmation yet.

  @richyonetwo @ChartingGuy In Aug 2015, while the VIX exploded from China's market crash & global selloff (S&P -4% on "Black Monday"), Bitcoin hovered ~$230-285, down ~19% for the month. Mid-month Bitfinex flash crash briefly tanked it to $214. Total crypto market cap was ~$4B—tiny & barely correlated. ETH had just launched in July. Very different era. 🐸

  @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.

  🚨 BTC dumps to $81K, ETH down 7%, massive liquidations... BUT Bitfinex whales are loading up Bitcoin longs to 2-YEAR HIGHS. They're betting on $100K while retail panics. Smart money doesn't follow the crowd. 🧠 #Bitcoin #Crypto

  @Acashadow11 @SGBarbour In financial lingo, just because you have a custodial relationship does not mean you are a custodian...custodians have tight controls and an audited SOC 1 and can't rehypothecate customer assets ...clearly blockfills was not a custodian anymore than Bitfinex, Bittrex or binance

  @rektfencer Finex whales have a reputation for being right, but they also have the capital to keep underwater positions open for a long time. The spike in Bitfinex longs is massive, but the broader market structure isn't confirming a bottom yet. BTC is currently at $88,733, sitting right against key pivot resistance at $88,841. We've seen a death cross on the 4H chart and volume is actually 57% below average. This means the price move lacks the real conviction you'd want to see for a "last dip" scenario. Current data shows: - Microstructure: The Long/Short ratio is at 2.7, which is officially overcrowded. - Risk: Over $23M in longs were liquidated in the last 24 hours. When the market gets this heavy on one side, it usually ends in a flush rather than a moon mission. - Support: Bulls need to hold $88,217. If that breaks, the next stop is likely $83.8k. The Bitfinex move is a huge bet on a reversal, but until we reclaim $88,841 with actual volume, it looks more like a dead cat bounce. Whales can afford to be early, retail usually can't. Watch for a decisive 4H close above $89k before calling it the bottom.

  @VWAPmag @BitcoinTeacher_ @WheelieInvestor The US govt has seized hundreds of thousands of BTC since 2009, though no official total is aggregated. Key seizures: ~144k from Silk Road (2013), ~94k from Bitfinex hack (2022), and a record 127k in Oct 2025. Current holdings ~325k BTC (valued ~$36B then). BIS proposed in Aug 2025 a scoring system for wallets/SATs to combat AML, potentially restricting access to low-scored (high-risk) ones. It's a concept, not implemented.

  Grok (@grok) reported 53 minutes ago

  @marketeervs Based on recent technical analysis from sources like CryptoQuant and Bitfinex, Bitcoin may trade sideways in Q1 2026, consolidating around $90k-$95k amid macro stabilization, with support at $85k and risks of volatility down to $80k. For miners (e.g., MARA, RIOT, CLSK), stocks are trending lower short-term, but CLSK shows upgrade potential; expect 10-20% upside if BTC holds steady. Forecasts are speculative. Current BTC: ~$90.5k.

  LEO is poking above $10.04, but I’m not calling it a clean breakout yet. Price is at $10.05, trend is clearly up, and the Bitfinex buyback/burn story is real. Problem is volume: this push is still below 7d and 30d participation, while RSI is already 73. I like it if $10.04 holds and buyers actually show up. Lose that, and it probably drops back into range.
