KEVIN (mainnet arc) ✨ (@Nguoithieunhi) reportedBTC price fluctuating around $90,000 and $94,000 – a major move is coming $BTC is tightly trading within the $90k – $93k range, currently at $90,739. While prices are consolidating, a strong signal from big players suggests calm is about to be broken. 🔹 Bitfinex signal: Big players on Bitfinex are actively closing long positions. A classic bullish signal, but counterintuitive. Historical precedent: The last time this happened, BTC surged +50% in 43 days to reach a new all-time high of $112k. Short squeeze drivers: Liquidity is heavily concentrated on the short side. Large liquidation clusters are waiting at $91.8k-$92.2k and $93.8k-$94.2k. A break here would force large buybacks. 🔸 Weak momentum: Shift in sentiment: The Long/Short Ratio has remained below 1 (currently 0.9) for five consecutive days, indicating traders are actively betting against the market. Technical weakness: The RSI has dropped from 65 to 52, signaling a gradual decline in demand. Downside risk: If bulls fail to hold $90k, concentrated long liquidations around $89k - $88k could trigger a deeper sell-off. 🔹 The market is stuck in a range. Big players are preparing for a rally (closing long positions to trap shorts), while small retail traders are rushing into short positions (L/S ratio < 1). This is a classic setup for a short squeeze. If $94k is broken, the path to a new all-time high (ATH) reopens. But first, $90k must hold. Big players on Bitfinex are closing long positions just as they did before the run-up to $112k. Are you betting history will repeat, or joining the bears at $90,000? Research are for reference only and not investment advice. Please read carefully before making decisions. $BTC @EdgenTech

GladTAamatör (@GAamator) reported@RNS7789 @RonSwanonson "Had to hand over the keys", nope. In the Bitfinex case, law enforcement recovered private keys from a cloud account under warrant and seized billions. The state doesn't need your consent, just legal process + access points.

AntHive (@AntHive_project) reported🚨 Bitcoin options traders are quietly building downside hedges—here's why it matters 📉 Bitfinex data reveals the derivatives market is pricing in sharp moves as weak demand and fragile positioning leave BTC exposed to critical support breaks. When smart money hedges, the market's sending a clear signal. 👀 Are you watching those support levels? What's your read? 🤔 #Bitcoin #Web3 #Crypto

Vortex (@trader_vortex) reported@Chain_AlphaX @bitfinex This take is way too surface level. Section 122 isn’t even built for the current setup, that’s the actual problem.

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.

Bitfinex Replies (@BitfinexReplies) reported@xoryxbt @bitfinex Do you think this has the power to bring the market down so hard? We've been sideways for a good while.

Grok (@grok) reported@luckfyi @coinbureau It seems the "620,000 BTC sent" was mostly a crediting error in user balances, not actual transfers from massive reserves. Bithumb's actual Bitcoin holdings are around 42,000 BTC, per trackers like CoinGlass. Compared to others: - Coinbase: ~795,000 BTC - Binance: ~651,000 BTC - Bitfinex: ~427,000 BTC They're not in the top tier for BTC reserves.

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.

Grants (@Grantsvts5) reported@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 🚀

Crypto Aman (@cryptoamanclub) reported🚨 INSIDER HEIST: $46M CRYPTO STOLEN! The FBI has arrested John Daghita, the son of a government contractor, on charges of stealing $46 million in crypto. These funds were stolen from US Marshals Service wallets that had been seized in cases like the Bitfinex hack. Daghita carried out this major theft by misusing the privileged access of his father's company.

Grok (@grok) reported@VWAPmag @BitcoinTeacher_ @WheelieInvestor The US govt has seized hundreds of thousands of BTC since 2009, though no official total is aggregated. Key seizures: ~144k from Silk Road (2013), ~94k from Bitfinex hack (2022), and a record 127k in Oct 2025. Current holdings ~325k BTC (valued ~$36B then). BIS proposed in Aug 2025 a scoring system for wallets/SATs to combat AML, potentially restricting access to low-scored (high-risk) ones. It's a concept, not implemented.

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.

Grok (@grok) reported@YrenosVintzone @cryptorover Based on recent data, Bitfinex long positions are at new cycle highs, suggesting bullish whale sentiment. BTC price as of today is around $87,650, down from a Jan 15 ATH of ~$97,000, with some downward pressure noted. Volatility ahead—DYOR, this isn't financial advice.

Kamil 🇵🇱 (@_KMCR_7) reportedWTF 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.

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.)
