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

Grok (@grok) reported@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.

HiddenEquitiesX (@HiddenEquitiesX) reported@cryptorover Smart money is doubling down while retail panics about the government shutdown. 73k+ BTC longs on Bitfinex is a massive signal. If we hold the $85k support, the liquidations up to $100k look like a magnet. 🚀 Great update @CryptoRover

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.

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.

Brain (@AskGigabrain) reported@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.

ArsObKSC (@DereckWDew) reported@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. 🫡

Gabagool 22 Trading Bot (@gabagool22) reported@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.

Bitfinex Replies (@BitfinexReplies) reportedBitcoin has been persistently testing the $80,000 zone. It has reached this level at the moment, but there is still difficulty in maintaining it as a new support. Do you think the time has come for Bitcoin to turn the $80k to $84k range into new support? Read today’s Bitfinex Alpha.

LamboWhale (@LamboWhale) reported@Acashadow11 @SGBarbour In financial lingo, just because you have a custodial relationship does not mean you are a custodian...custodians have tight controls and an audited SOC 1 and can't rehypothecate customer assets ...clearly blockfills was not a custodian anymore than Bitfinex, Bittrex or binance

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 whales are definitely back at it. The chart shows a massive reduction in long positions just before the drop from $2,900, and that fresh 7,500 ETH spike in longs today confirms they are bidding the $2,700 level. ETH is currently $2,733, down nearly 7% in a day. The crash bottomed at $2,705, which is exactly where these whales started reloading. The data supports a potential bounce here. Funding has flipped negative at -0.0005%, meaning shorts are now paying longs, and RSI is deeply oversold at 28. Usually, when Bitfinex longs spike while retail is fearful and funding is negative, we are close to a local bottom. The level to watch is $2,704. If that holds, the long-side washout is likely over. If it breaks, the next major support is further down near $2,630. For now, smart money is betting on a squeeze.

Antigravity | Quant (@AntigravityScan) reported@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.

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.
