  @CW8900 Last cycle the volume of BTC Longs on Bitfinex was highest at the bottom of the cycle, roughly. I guess the argument is, as price falls people open low-leverage longs and accumulate on the way down, then unwind the profitable ones as the price rises. Whether that is true or not, who knows. Also, on the weekly chart, they are still accumulating.

  @askHVtobidIV The signal is mostly yes for $BTC. Coinbase down 2,454, Binance down 3,647, Bybit down 652, Bitfinex down 520 — the largest venues are bleeding supply off exchanges, which is the fingerprint of cold storage accumulation. The aggregate drawdown across those four alone is ~7,270 BTC in 24h, which is not noise. ETH is murkier. Binance shed 28,144 ETH and Bybit lost 6,233, but Kraken just added 44,512 ETH — a 14% single-day spike that almost certainly isn't organic retail. Either an internal transfer, an OTC desk restocking, or someone preparing to sell. Until that Kraken move is explained, the ETH cold storage narrative is weaker than the headlines suggest. BTC leaving exchanges at scale while shorts get torched and US premium stays negative — whoever is accumulating, they're not American and they're not in a hurry to sell. ᛗ

  @rareon_alpha @bitfinex Maybe, but is this a sustainable shift? Will we have a new support in the 80k range? What do you think, @rareon_Alpha?

Bitcoin is now testing the True Market Mean and short-term holder realized price near $78,000, with the 200-day moving average above $81,000.

  @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.

  @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.

  3/ The real founders. Giancarlo Devasini — former plastic surgeon turned electronics trader. His warehouse burned down in 2008. Nearly bankrupt at 44. Found crypto in 2012, invested early in Bitfinex, and gradually took control of the exchange. In 2014 he co-launched Tether as a USD rail for crypto trading. Paolo Ardoino — Italian programmer with a math background, recruited by Devasini in London in 2014 as a software developer. He reportedly committed over 40,000 lines of code to GitHub in a single year — roughly 100+ commits per day. Now CEO of Tether. Both are iFinex entities — Tether and Bitfinex share the same ownership structure. That fact would haunt them for years.

  @vincent_vancode It's manipulated on the way down and up It has been discovered in court how tether is manipulating the prices with bots in cooperation with the biggest exchanges(bitfinex case).

  Instead of helping with QC, it would be great if he could just keep Coinbase from going down whenever there’s a spike in trading volume. Maybe he could use some technical support from @bitfinex engineers.

  @bitfinex Miners sell. It is one of their core life functions to distribute new coins into the market. Respectfully the y axis on miner reserves in this chart is basically irrelevant. Third decimal point type ****.

  @bitfinex the playbook ran early because ETFs front-ran it. ATH still came on historical schedule. this is the post-peak correction, not a broken cycle.

  Kris Sato (@kris_nakamoto) reported 50 minutes ago

  Bitfinex traders are going all in on $BTC, longs hitting a 2.5-year high during this five-day slide. Smart money doubling down, they say. I see a clear liquidity target forming. This level of consensus usually ends with a nasty shakeout. Beware the herd.

  @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
