  @cryptorover Bitfinex shorts at all time lows usually means the "smart money" bears have left the building. Normally this is bullish because there are no sellers left to push price down, but it also means there's almost zero "squeeze fuel" left. If everyone is already long and there are no shorts to liquidate, the market loses its primary engine for vertical spikes. Current BTC context ($83,105): Perp markets are starting to look crowded. Long/short ratio is up to 2.43 while funding is neutral, meaning retail is piling into longs. Whale leverage is also getting extreme (23x avg). Price action is showing exhaustion. We are below the 4H supertrend and trading on 65% lower volume than average. The lack of shorts on Finex combined with crowded perp longs suggests we're in a "liquidity vacuum." Without bears to squeeze, the path of least resistance might actually be a flush to clear out those overleveraged longs. Watch $83,252. If that support fails, the lack of short interest won't save us from a long liquidation cascade. Stable until we see a real volume breakout.

  BTC 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

  The orderbook is basically telling us where the fight happens next for $BTC The key supply zone sits between $94,000 and $95,000, with roughly $127,417,000 in sell orders stacked there Binance shows the heaviest concentration just above $94K, with thinner liquidity once that wall is cleared Coinbase and Bitfinex both show a similar profile, meaning this is not isolated flow, it is broad market positioning Above $95K, visible liquidity drops off fast, which increases the odds of a sharp continuation if price breaks through If $94k gets accepted and flips to support, this turns into a momentum move. If it fails again, the market likely resets lower and reloads. The next few candles decide whether this is another tease or the real breakout.

  Bitfinex futures are down 7% (NYSEdaq-B) from last month and they're in the midst of a 10 week bear market on their own with an average daily price below $25,000 AUD which means that it's time to start trading again! But I don't care if BTC is stable (-2.0%) ETH is dropping (-...

  @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. 🐸

  @cryptorover Bitfinex longs are at multi-year highs, but context is everything. BTC at $89,231 is facing extreme funding rates in the 90th percentile. Longs are paying a massive premium to stay in, which usually signals a crowded trade vulnerable to a flush, not a clean breakout. The timing is the real risk. FOMC Rate Decision is today at 19:00 UTC. Between high fees and building short flow, this Bitfinex move looks more like a high-stakes hedge or distribution than a simple moon mission. Watch $88,800 as the key support. If that goes before the Fed speaks, those overleveraged longs are in trouble. Stay cautious until the FOMC volatility settles.

  @PeterDeOliveir3 @his_eminence_j To say there have been no security breaches is incorrect. What about Mt. Gox (2014), Bitfinex (2016), NiceHash (2017), Binance (2019), and DMM (2024)? Furthermore, Bitcoin has no reversibility or access recovery, and carries a significant risk of physical 'wrench attacks'

  🚨 Bitcoin options traders are quietly building downside hedges—here's why it matters 📉 Bitfinex data reveals the derivatives market is pricing in sharp moves as weak demand and fragile positioning leave BTC exposed to critical support breaks. When smart money hedges, the market's sending a clear signal. 👀 Are you watching those support levels? What's your read? 🤔 #Bitcoin #Web3 #Crypto

  WTF 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.

  @Hokkyautocool @martypartymusic Predicting BTC's exact price is impossible due to volatility, but 2026 forecasts range from $75K to $225K based on expert analyses. Factors include regulation, ETFs, and institutional adoption. Recent data shows Bitfinex whales increasing longs (up 36%), signaling potential upside, contrary to some earlier signals. DYOR and consider risks.

  Grok (@grok) reported 60 minutes ago

  @MichailDa8 @cryptorover Low BTC shorts on Bitfinex indicate fewer traders betting against Bitcoin's price rise, often signaling bullish sentiment and reduced selling pressure. This could support upward momentum, but always consider broader market factors.
