  @zackvoell The only exchange I remember that kept working was Bitfinex. Bitmex just went offline and wouldn't let anyone close their orders. It was madness.

  @bitfinex Holding support through this much pressure suggests worst might be over.

  @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.

  Suspect 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.

  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.

  @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

  @ArdiNSC Distribution idea has a problem Bitfinex whales hold 78835 BTC long only 417 $BTC short that is about 189 to 1 This is not how distribution looks distribution means smart money sells to retail but here big players are mostly buying not selling

  Alex B (@cryptofoolscom) reported 18 minutes ago

  @martypartymusic What's interesting, recently, even when BTC is flat or positive, Bitfinex longs keep piling in. Usually, it's the opposite. Bitfinex longs are going up, and the BTC price is sliding down. Divergence like that tells me the reversal for BTC is on the way.

  @CW8900 You can't know if they are done accumulating. All the possible resistancies on BTC longs by Bitfinex guys are broken. Now you have a path to 100k btc from here as a bear market low

  @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.

  @TradingLogica Not every BTC move is a sell 👀 sending to Bitfinex could be OTC prep, collateral, or treasury rebalancing. True distribution shows cold-to-hot wallet transfers over 48–72h. Ted breaks down these patterns on the TED Crypto Telegram channel 📊 Copy 👉 tedcrypto_tg 🚀

  @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.

  TraderHC (@traderhc) reported 33 minutes ago

  @_MoarDonuts_ The $12.1B ETF flow is the structural break nobody's pricing in. Prior cycles, marginal buyer was leveraged retail on Bitfinex. This cycle, it's RIA allocators rebalancing quarterly into $IBIT. Different buyer, different hands, different drawdown profile. Funding's at 0% right now . that's not 2021 froth setting up a flush. Doesn't mean no drawdown. Means the shape changes. What's your line for "cycle is broken"?

  @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...

  If you're down on your pnl, at least save on fees, its permanently zero fee trading on @bitfinex. I'm surprised the volume hasn't migrated as much as I'd think.

  @bitfinex This makes sense. Whales can support price, but without retail buying, it just moves sideways and tests patience.

  The stablecoin wars are heating up in 2026 Three big chains fighting to become THE rail for moving dollars (and euros, etc.) around the world instantly & cheaply: 1. **Plasma** (Tether/Bitfinex vibes) Already live since late '25. Zero-fee USDT sends (subsidized rn), EVM-compatible, billions in transfers processed. XPL token is down ~95% from ATH (~$0.08 today), big unlock in July '26 looming like a dark cloud. Still has real traction with ~$2B+ stable supply & DeFi integrations. Proved the "stable-first chain" actually works... but can it survive the hype fade? 2. **Arc** (Circle/USDC crew) Public testnet crushing it (150M+ txns, sub-second settles, 1.5M wallets early). USDC as native gas = no volatile token drama, predictable dollar fees. Super compliance/institutional focus: privacy opts, FX engine, CCTP for multichain USDC. Mainnet push in '26. If banks & big finance want regulated stablecoin rails, this feels like the safe bet. Solid but maybe less "fun" for retail. 3. **Tempo** (Stripe + Paradigm beast mode) Public testnet live since Dec '25, mainnet expected '26. No native volatile token at all — pay fees in ANY stablecoin. 100k+ TPS claims, sub-second finality, enshrined stable AMM, fast lanes for new stables. Backed by Stripe's trillion-dollar payment empire + insane partners (Visa, Mastercard, UBS, Klarna planning their own stable, Shopify, Revolut, OpenAI...). Farcaster founders just jumped ship to join. This one screams "enterprise payments takeover" if they deliver. My hot take ranking (assuming Tempo nails execution): - **Tempo** → 9/10 Stripe's distribution is unfair. Could eat everyone's lunch in real-world payments. ~55-60% shot at being #1 long-term. - **Arc** → 8/10 Circle's reg moat + USDC dominance. ~25-30% chance to win institutional flows. - **Plasma** → 6/10 First mover advantage fading, token pain incoming. ~10-15% to stay dominant unless volume explodes again. 2026 is gonna be massive for stablecoins , trillions in volume up for grabs. Solana/Tron still crush retail transfers today, but these "stablechains" are laser-focused on making stable money actually usable at scale. Which one are you betting on? Or do you think none win and Solana just keeps eating? @tempo @arc @Plasma #Stablecoins #CryptoPayments

  @coinbureau 79,343 BTC longs at Bitfinex mirrors Nov 2023 levels when BTC was ~$35K. Correlation with STH inflows suggests potential liquidity flush if price tests $65K support. Historical squeeze events show 15-20% corrections in crowded positions.
