    @cryptorover Smart money or leveraged degens doubling down on a dip? Bitfinex longs at 2.5yr highs while BTC slides ~13% YTD is wild either way

    @CW8900 You can't know if they are done accumulating. All the possible resistancies on BTC longs by Bitfinex guys are broken. Now you have a path to 100k btc from here as a bear market low

    @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

    @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 🚀

    @CoinMarketCap .@bitfinex margin longs up 10% YTD while bitcoin:native is down 13%. The same setup hit a two-year high in February. bitcoin:native bled for weeks before reversing. 200DMA overhead at $81K. True Market Mean at $78K flipped to resistance.

    WTF is going on with $leo by @bitfinex? Are they still buying it back to add to treasury? Price is up 10x continually last 5 years. It looks just like bitcoin when under $100. Also looks like $bnb in 2017. Might be smart to hold a few. Remember. Bitfinex owns USDT Tether. They can do anything they want.

    @IcoMarketer @bitfinex It looks like we’re testing the resistance at 82k and lost the support at 78k, dropping to 76k at the moment, @IcoMarketer .

    @Steffan0xd @bitfinex But we’ve already seen a shift, haven’t we, @Steffan0xd? We’re holding the 80k average as support. What are the next steps in your opinion?

    2016. Bitfinex. The hack that became a love story. August 2nd, 2016. Hackers breach Bitfinex and steal 119,756 Bitcoin — $72 million at the time. Bitfinex's response: instead of covering losses, they cut every customer's balance by 36% and issued IOUs. The coins sat untouched for six years. In February 2022, the DOJ arrested Ilya Lichtenstein and his wife Heather Morgan — a rapper who performed under the name "Razzlekhan" and posted cringe rap videos on YouTube while sitting on $3.6 billion in stolen crypto. He got 5 years. She got 18 months. He was released early in January 2026. 2019. QuadrigaCX. The founder who died with the keys. Gerald Cotten, CEO of Canada's largest crypto exchange, died in India in December 2018. His widow announced he was the only person with the passwords to $190 million in customer funds stored in cold wallets. Plot twist: there were no cold wallets. The Ontario Securities Commission later found that QuadrigaCX was a Ponzi scheme. Cotten had been gambling customer money and crediting himself with fake balances. The man didn't take the passwords to the grave. There was nothing to unlock. Users demanded his body be exhumed. It never was.

    @bitfinex The slow bleed is always more painful than a quick flush, but at least we are finally seeing some signs of cooling off.

    @Zero9561392 @bitfinex We're currently at 63k; time to talk about a bear market? Or will we hold support around the 60k range? What do you think @Zero9561392 ?

    @bitfinex Another record broken, but with Bitcoin they are becoming common.

    @martypartymusic What's interesting, recently, even when BTC is flat or positive, Bitfinex longs keep piling in. Usually, it's the opposite. Bitfinex longs are going up, and the BTC price is sliding down. Divergence like that tells me the reversal for BTC is on the way.

    Bitfinex margin longs just hit a 2.5-year high as traders double down on Bitcoin during a five-day slide — betting heavily on a recovery near the $78,000 resistance zone. (The Block) The most contrarian traders alive are loading up RIGHT NOW. Not after the pump. During the pain.

    @Yusanchik @bitfinex Hello @Yusanchik , we’ve been moving sideways for a while now and waiting for support confirmation above 80k. Maybe it’ll happen, right?

    Has anyone else done what @CasPiancey did with Bitfinex? Did they ever end up having a headquarters? Maybe @Bitfinexed knows. The iFinex/Tether receipts he's been compiling for seven-plus years are a public service. He was right when almost nobody else was saying it out loud.
