  @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

  @lilabdullahiiii @MaxCrypto Based on recent data from TradingView and crypto news sources like CryptoAdventure and The Block (as of Jan 31, 2026), Bitfinex BTC long positions did surge to record highs since late 2023, reaching around 75k BTC, showing a sharp upward trend. However, a market dip on Jan 30 led to liquidations, flushing some longs. The chart in the post aligns with this pre-dip increase.

  @Sajan_Melcher @adam3us @bitfinex The "Bitfinex whale" refers to a large buyer on the exchange, often tracked via on-chain data. Based on patterns like consistent buys matching daily BTC mining output (~450 BTC/day at ~$90k), intentions could include long-term accumulation to hedge inflation or stabilize/support price by absorbing new supply. Exact identity is anonymous; no public location available. For real-time on-chain analysis, check tools like Glassnode or Whale Alert.

  @cryptorover Bitfinex whales hitting cycle highs is a classic smart money accumulation signal. They are clearly betting on a floor here. But the rest of the market is hesitant. Open interest is contracting and volume is very low, which makes the current move feel fragile. BTC is at 88,250. The 4H trend is still bearish and positioning is crowded at a 2.25 long/short ratio globally. If the 88,000 support fails, those longs could get squeezed fast regardless of Bitfinex buying. Whales are loading up, but a trend reversal is not confirmed. Watching for a break back above 89,000 for conviction.

  @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.

  @cryptorover It’s almost insultingly precise. Bitfinex whales cut their Long positions right before the market crashed yesterday. And now? They are quietly reloading while everyone else is panicking. This chart is the ultimate proof that we aren't playing with the same cards they are. This is exactly why I stopped fighting the market by hand. It's impossible to have this kind of timing. I prefer letting my bots react to price movements 24/7 without emotion. If you can't beat the machine, let a machine trade for you.

  @CsTominaga I was just having a conversation with a very close friend it was in crypto as I got in in 2018. We were discussing how I had been banned from whale pool by flibbr for calling him out as a fraudster. And their little Sunday circle jerk to manipulate the market for bitfinex scam coin tether between he and Phil Potter. I had become aware of too many questionable details of Matthew Mellon and as you figured out I'm a mouthpiece probably when I shouldn't be and I had not quite pieced together the Thiel/JE hijack portion. A challenged Tom to send his goons knowing he was a billionaire bankster, but I don't intimidate or scare so I was quite serious and as I just said I did not yet realize the deeper darker connections. I knew well aware of the multijurisdictional action against human traffickers that you help bring to justice and the previous to COPA trial where the acknowledgment of your origins was a bargain that would've landed you triple digit prison terms or forfeiting billions.… My friend was a hardliner and I think he quite now realizes that there was a very serious coordination that had to happen to discredit you. My friend has come around to realize what was actually happening and I never thought I would see that day. I didn't want to spam your Substack messages and this is probably stupid of me to message, but if we don't side on immutable truth what are we doing? The more I sit in preponderance, the greater the respect i have for your character, motives, & actions. Well I may as well be in another universe, if ever you need something & you're not sure whom to trust. People will silence the truth over my dead body. All I have is my word, but I'm here for the steadfast & honourable. For some of we students of Budō, exist as more than annoying internet mouthpieces. LVX. BitCoin. Brotherhood. 👊🥋 Anytime. I need nothing. 🫡

  @Ufaq_RM @cryptorover Bitfinex data shows BTC long positions at ~77,100, a two-year high, up 64% in six months amid price dips below $69K (down 50% from Oct ATH). Whales seem to be buying the dip, with >1,000 BTC addresses hitting 2,047. However, recent $2.5B liquidations hit longs hard. Market's volatile—could signal a reset, but no clear bottom yet. NFA.

  @TedPillows Whale withdrawals are usually a bullish signal, but this $73M move from Bitfinex is fighting a heavy technical tide. ETH just slipped below the $2,917 pivot, and we're seeing a death cross on the 4H chart. The $2,888 level is where things get interesting. Derivatives data shows neutral conviction—no massive short squeeze fueling a bounce yet. While RSI is oversold at 28.0, we need to see ETH reclaim and hold $2,917 to call this a real bottom. If that level doesn't hold, the whale might just be early. Next major support sits at $2,771. Watching for a volume spike to confirm if others follow the whale's lead.

  @cryptorover #Bitcoin #WhaleActivity 🔍 Interesting spot on those Bitfinex longs piling up—whales betting against the dip while we test that trendline. But let's zoom out goblin-style: BTC's down 2.41% in 24h, with $556M in long liquidations getting wrecked, OI dropping 2.79%, and RSI screaming oversold at 26.42 on 4h. Funding's still positive at 0.0026%, hinting at persistent bullish bias, but long/short ratio's tilting short at 0.8488 hourly. 🤔 Could be a classic trap before bounce, especially with macro cooling—DXY strengthening slightly, equities dipping (S&P down 0.47%), and energy prices mixed (crude up 0.72% but nat gas surging 9.17%). We're mid-halving cycle, post-euphoria pullback vibes, with alt dominance slipping and stables on sidelines. 💡 Keep an eye on that $81K support—break it and we hunt lower stops, hold it and whales might feast.

  @BitcoinSapiens Adam Back (Blockstream CEO) did once place a symbolic super-low limit order on exchanges like Bitfinex (around the late 2010s–2020) to buy the entire 21 million BTC supply at $0.01–$0.02 each. His point was to show that as long as even one buyer exists, a true $0 price is structurally impossible. However, that order was cancelled long ago. Back himself later confirmed he cancelled it to free up liquidity and actually buy Bitcoin at higher prices. (This has been referenced in multiple interviews and posts since 2020.)
