Bitfinex Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
M-log1 (@log1_053) reportedThe reason you should block these accounts. Bitfinex whales are what you should counter trade, they are smart money but the way this morron makes all think like.
-
BlockVault (@blockvaultapp) reported@bitfinex two lines of code for an easy block size fix.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@profitoon @TrendingBitcoin Yes, Adam Back (adam3us) posted on Jan 20, 2026: a "Bitfinex whale" was buying ~450 BTC/day at ~$90k (ramped from 300), matching daily mined supply exactly (3.125 BTC/block × 144 blocks/day = 450). Identity unknown, so anonymous in that sense. News outlets like CryptoSlate and CCN covered it then. The "more than mined" part is slightly off—it's equal. Not a new March statement.

Samson Mow (@Excellion) reportedInstead of helping with QC, it would be great if he could just keep Coinbase from going down whenever there’s a spike in trading volume. Maybe he could use some technical support from @bitfinex engineers.
-
Diego Cuenca (@diegoj_cuenca) reported@bitfinex Is the maintenance tied to recent issues with erroneously withdrawals marked as completed when they were not successfully performed?
-
Bitfinex Replies (@BitfinexReplies) reported@Tryzub_X @bitfinex The market despite these signals remains unstable, it's impossible to know the direction. What you think about it? Feel free to follow us @Tryzub_X.

Nuntii News (@thenuntiinews) reported🚨 BREAKING 900 Bitcoin valued at approximately $69,858,175 USD was transferred from an unknown wallet to the cryptocurrency exchange Bitfinex, according to blockchain tracking service Whale Alert.
-
Malachi (@MalachiRevolts) reported@Excellion @bitfinex He could also set up an actual customer support. There's many things he can do in his own shop before weighing on things above his skull.
-
Lazyeyes (@ProofOfPath) reported@StaniKulechov Aave could tokenise a loan ie issue securities backed by future profits Bitfinex did it
-
Crypto Miners (@CryptoMiners_Co) reportedSuspect in alleged $46M U.S. Marshals crypto theft arrested Authorities have arrested John Daghita in Saint Martin in connection with the alleged theft of more than $46 million in cryptocurrency from wallets tied to the U.S. Marshals Service. Blockchain investigator ZachXBT previously linked Daghita, known online as “Lick,” to funds believed to have been taken from wallets holding crypto seized in the 2016 Bitfinex hack. The case has drawn renewed scrutiny to how confiscated digital assets are managed by the U.S. Marshals Service and the outside firms contracted to help oversee them.

🇮🇪🛡 | Mac | 🛡🇸🇻 (@MacOnChain) reported@bitfinex Now if Bitfinex can get a bank onboard to accept deposits from their platform with less issues here it would be great
-
Bitfinex Replies (@BitfinexReplies) reported@bitfinex If confirmations of support at 78k–80k emerge, we may have had a short bear market.
-
RiskRewardGuru (@riskrewardguru) reported@bitfinex yeah that rotation had people excited for a sec… this drain definitely slowed things down but not game over imo
-
Conviction Labs | NVISION (@Conviction_Labs) reported$BTC Bitfinex margin longs added a lot on this move down to 59k. Means a HUGE reversal by EOY.
-
JayCryp (@JayCrypEth) reported@cryptorover Smart money or leveraged degens doubling down on a dip? Bitfinex longs at 2.5yr highs while BTC slides ~13% YTD is wild either way
-
Lazyeyes (@ProofOfPath) reported@WuBlockchain Perhaps Aave could issue tokens backed by a share of their future profits at say a 15% APY return? This is essentially what Bitfinex did to survive their 2016 hack.
-
Jugger (@kkimjaechu25852) reportedAftermath: TVL cratered from $550M to $230M in an hour. DRIFT token hit all-time low at $0.03343, down 40%+. Solana co-founder Yakovenko proposed a Bitfinex-style IOU airdrop but the community isn't buying it without a viable repayment path
-
Marovit (@Marovit_ALTSS) reported@adam3us @bitfinex Yes but we are going down m8. And fronting the market dump as always! Predictions markets kinda give it to you if you cant see it by yourself. If the cycle reapeates itself! Till it doesnt I will believe in it. July August :)

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.
-
Knox (@xknoxbt) reported@mert but ser, zcash isnt really immune: components such as signatures, proof verification and note encryption still depend on pre-quantum primitives that could eventually be broken (Bitfinex) the Orchard pool specifically runs on Pallas/Vesta curves, which are still elliptic-curve assumptions a sufficiently capable quantum adversary could compromise proof soundness and note confidentiality in the current stack

Lea Thompson (@LeaT_Design) reported@whale_alert tether moving **** to bitfinex like it's ******* nothing

ᛗᛁᛗᛁᚱ (@MimirOnChain) reported@askHVtobidIV The signal is mostly yes for $BTC. Coinbase down 2,454, Binance down 3,647, Bybit down 652, Bitfinex down 520 — the largest venues are bleeding supply off exchanges, which is the fingerprint of cold storage accumulation. The aggregate drawdown across those four alone is ~7,270 BTC in 24h, which is not noise. ETH is murkier. Binance shed 28,144 ETH and Bybit lost 6,233, but Kraken just added 44,512 ETH — a 14% single-day spike that almost certainly isn't organic retail. Either an internal transfer, an OTC desk restocking, or someone preparing to sell. Until that Kraken move is explained, the ETH cold storage narrative is weaker than the headlines suggest. BTC leaving exchanges at scale while shorts get torched and US premium stays negative — whoever is accumulating, they're not American and they're not in a hurry to sell. ᛗ

stop pugging meh and stream eyes wide open (@steponmetwice) reported@bitfinex Up or Down EXID

NineInchTrails (@nineinchtrails) reported@NobodyonXI Never say never I'd say. Bitfinex and Tron...y not? But personally would wonder a lot in case Tether collapses. Too important for evil money and too big. Maybe a huge depeg and that's it? But yeah never say never. FTX was also big. And after it had served its purpose it was shot down. And we now have USDC so... Need to watch his stuff about in detail! Saw he posted a lot of very nice stuff about it and is very deep into it. I'm not that deep into it. The stuff here that's it more or less

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.
-
Lucas (@lucas_eth996) reported@lukecannon727 $HYPE wick to $9,356 is either a Bitfinex glitch or the most expensive typo in crypto history
-
Lea Thompson (@LeaT_Design) reported@whale_alert more money into bitfinex. hope they're building **** not just moving it.
-
Bitfinex Replies (@BitfinexReplies) reportedBitcoin has been persistently testing the $80,000 zone. It has reached this level at the moment, but there is still difficulty in maintaining it as a new support. Do you think the time has come for Bitcoin to turn the $80k to $84k range into new support? Read today’s Bitfinex Alpha.
