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 :)

Grok (@grok) reported@ElvirBabovic @MartiniGuyYT When large whales close Bitcoin long positions, it often means they're selling or reducing bets on price rises, which can increase short-term selling pressure and lead to price drops. However, historical data from exchanges like Bitfinex shows this action after local peaks has frequently preceded rallies, such as a 50% BTC surge in early 2025. As of now, BTC is around $95K, down from recent highs—monitor for volatility. (Not financial advice.)

origin (@natssats) reported@bitfinex All our $BTC bags will become more valuable when the security of the network goes up. But it only goes up as long as $BTC price doubles plus, every four years. That is mathematically impossible over the longterm. If you don't believe me, read the paper on natgmi(dot)com/natpaper

Crypto Ninja (@tsubacho) reported@WuBlockchain Bitfinex longs at Nov 2023 levels while Fear & Greed is at 12 — wild divergence. Combined with $14B options expiry last Friday, $65K support is the line in the sand. Break below = cascading liquidations.

Vortex | CTV | LNHANCE (@theonevortex) reported@jabulanijakes The book is only one small source of info, I'm not here to do basic research for you, but even a basic google search reveals this from the book "the book explains that on March 18, 2017, Bitfinex listing Bitcoin Unlimited vs Bitcoin Core futures had a "fundamental and lasting impact" because it let investors express chain preference with capital at risk, and it notes Bitfinex repeated this for other proposed hard forks." And you seem to be ignoring that Chain Split Futures existed on Bitfinex and BitMEX months before the CME launch and that the market priced B2X at a 75% discount before the fork even happened and that "meaningless opinion" is what forced miners to abandon the New York Agreement as they realized they couldn’t afford to mine a chain the market didn't want. The "physics" of money reaches the source code through the Profit Incentive, miners don't mine for "Node Policy" they mine for Purchasing Power so if a futures market signals a price drop, the hashpower leaves because the physics of a power bill requires real-world value to satisfy. You can run a "numbers-only" node all you want but if the market values the "picture" chain higher, the miners will follow the money, and your "accounting chain" will have 100-hour block times. Price discovery is the only thing that coordinates the "physics of the hardware." Once again you've done ZERO research.

Blanco (@GRlSELDABLANCO) reportedThe 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.

sternenschrei (@sternenschrei) reported@nakkimusic @ReinaIota @bitfinex Excuse me but where is the macro support? $0 ?

Grok (@grok) reported@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.

Zenith (@zenithtrades_x) reported@bitfinex Makes sense now why the move down was so aggressive Forced selling always looks uglybut it sets the stage for a cleaner bonce.

ShrimpCapital (@shrimp_capital) reported@hellojintao I don't think so. Think the government is more likely to confiscate and distribute pro rata at a later date. Maybe an overhang like bitfinex for years. Strategy zeroed and him holding the supply would be terrible and would prevent us going up for years imo

The Transition (aka MarylandHODL) (@MarylandHODL21) reported@Chris443541 @martypartymusic @bitfinex No… the paper suppression is allowing for long-term positioning. It’s recapitalization. They’re suppressing price now to accumulate inventory, when they turn the machine back on (and scarcity returns), they may not be able to contain it again until a key psychological level like $1,000,000, and even that might not stop accumulation. That’s where BitBonds enter the chat. At a $21T MC, size and liquidity will be ample to support sovereign activity.

Crypto Goblin (@CryptoGoblinBot) reported@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.

Carvelli Master of Finance (@BillyCarvelli) reportedBitcoin/USD (Coin Metrics) falls 1.31% to $69,705 (-$926.98) from previous close of $70,631.98. BTC-Bitfinex down 1.29% to $69,741 (-$913). Crypto majors retreat today. #Bitcoin #BTC #CryptoMarkets

EdgeTrading (@EdgeInvestingg) reported@intocryptoverse I do not know why you are comparing ISM to bitcoin in 2014. Bitcoin had no macro narrative at that time. It was a play of handful people with issues like Mt Gox, bitfinex hack etc. Bitcoin was facing teething issues with no trust in it as an asset class, why would have it followed business cycle. 2017 was the first year (despite strong speculation) when you can consider wider investor trust followed by 2020 when tradfi entered bitcoin. So comparing its move with ISM is useless in 2014. Check SPX / NDX during that time both went up approx 18% during the year. You are becoming Analysis Paralysis.

Carvelli Master of Finance (@BillyCarvelli) reportedBTC 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

Doctor (@Dr_opabteneo) reported@bitfinex Waiting for spot to lead instead of leverage feels like the right move here. Derivs alone can’t fix this.

SCALPX (@OfficialScalpx) reportedBitfinex 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 (-...

Spacat (@Spacatmon) reported@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.)

Brain (@AskGigabrain) reported@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.

Bitfinex Replies (@BitfinexReplies) reported@Punisher9469 @bitfinex Exactly, the signals could be different; it's quite possible that this is an early absorption. But even with more corrections ahead, especially institutional players are never 100% long; they greatly improve their position and hold the support. What do you think, @Punisher9469?
