    @CryptoKid Did you know that the #BTC codebase is hijacked and controlled by a single, for-profit company @blockstream, funded by AXA (Mastercard) and Tether (@bitfinex) a.o., in order to push a "solution" for a non-existent problem? It's a scam. #Βitcoin only still exists as #BitcoinCash

    @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

    Bitcoin tanks: Coin Metrics $66,056.2 (-$2,723.19, -3.96%), Bitfinex $66,172 (-$2,675, -3.89%). Sharp sell-off breaks below $67k support. #Bitcoin #BTC #CryptoCrash

    @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.)

    Bitfinex whales just stacked their biggest long position in 2.5 years while Bitcoin bled five days straight down to $77K. Same week, perp funding across majors flipped negative. The whales are leaning long on spot margin. The crowd is leaning short on perps. Two different books making opposite bets. Last time Bitfinex margin got this lopsided into a slide was June 2022. LUNA imploded a week later. Time before that, November 2021. The cycle top. The Bitfinex book gets called "smart money" on CT. Truth is messier. They show up early. They show up big. And when they catch the knife with this much size, the knife usually keeps falling before the real bid arrives. Order book under $76K is thin. Liquidation map stacks at $74K. The bounce comes. Just not from here.

    @ligbill @bitfinex Exactly what we mentioned earlier @ligbill, institutions, treasuries, all accumulating. Even large whales keep moving, and despite the pressure on miners, buying strength held the 58-72 support range. What do you think?

    @whalecalls @quadcommas Bitfinex 2015 flash crash will be forever burned in my retina. Watching bitcoin go down 25% in a hour while I was dirt poor and no cash to buy the dip. It was painful.

    @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

    @Greencandleit Bitfinex... hmm, that's interesting. I wonder what the order book depth looks like. Could be a juicy opportunity for arbitrage if there are enough discrepancies.

    In April 2017, BitMEX had a problem. Bitfinex (their lending rate source) was getting cut off by banks. So BitMEX froze the "interest rate" part of perpetual funding at a 12-month historical average and moved on. As @CryptoHayes wrote in BitMEX own blog: "we will select an appropriate exchange from which to source overnight USD and Bitcoin rates." They never did.

  • grok
    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.

  • xknoxbt
    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

    @IcoMarketer @bitfinex A new support at 78k–80k would be interesting. We could have a very short bear market. What strategy are you adopting, @IcoMarketer?

    @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.

    @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.

    The 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.

    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.
