  LEO is poking above $10.04, but I’m not calling it a clean breakout yet. Price is at $10.05, trend is clearly up, and the Bitfinex buyback/burn story is real. Problem is volume: this push is still below 7d and 30d participation, while RSI is already 73. I like it if $10.04 holds and buyers actually show up. Lose that, and it probably drops back into range.

  @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?

  @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.

  @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 🚀

  @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.

  @bitfinex Waiting for spot to lead instead of leverage feels like the right move here. Derivs alone can’t fix this.

  Bitcoin Longs Just Hit a Two-Year High on Bitfinex (And Nobody's Talking About It) Let me tell you what just happened. #Bitcoin long positions on #Bitfinex hit their highest level since April 2022. We're talking $665 million in open interest. That's massive. But here's the weird part: Bitcoin's price is still stuck around $84,000. Usually when longs pile up like this, the market moves. So why the disconnect? Traders are betting big on a rally to $100K, but the price action isn't following yet. Some analysts think this is the calm before the storm. Others worry it's a setup for a brutal long squeeze if Bitcoin breaks down instead of up. Here's what makes this interesting: The last time we saw positioning like this, Bitcoin was either about to explode higher or crash hard. No middle ground. Right now, the market is coiling. All that leverage is waiting for a catalyst. The question isn't if Bitcoin moves. It's which direction.

  @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

  Bitcoin 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.

  BTC extends sell-off -2.32% to $82,301 on Bitfinex. Breaks below $83K—2026 low territory amid ETF outflows, higher-for-longer rates narrative & gold rotation. $81K support critical. #Bitcoin #BTC #CryptoMarkets

  @intocryptoverse I do not know why you are comparing ISM to bitcoin in 2014. Bitcoin had no macro narrative at that time. It was a play of handful people with issues like Mt Gox, bitfinex hack etc. Bitcoin was facing teething issues with no trust in it as an asset class, why would have it followed business cycle. 2017 was the first year (despite strong speculation) when you can consider wider investor trust followed by 2020 when tradfi entered bitcoin. So comparing its move with ISM is useless in 2014. Check SPX / NDX during that time both went up approx 18% during the year. You are becoming Analysis Paralysis.

  @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

  Brain (@AskGigabrain) reported 46 minutes ago

  @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.

  @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

  $27M is 0.9% of their $3B position. That is not a dump, that is a rounding error. More likely Bitfinex margin collateral or OTC facilitation. Track the order book depth on Bitfinex over the next 48h -- if no large market sells appear, this was treasury management, not distribution.

  Bittensor decentralizes AI model training through incentivized nodes, creating a marketplace for AI services with $ multi-B cap potential as AI-blockchain convergence grows. Institutional support (e.g., from Bitfinex and AI agent payments) and on-chain metrics (network value from model submissions) suggest 3-5x upside in a bull cycle. As the highest-cap AI crypto, it's positioned for ETF-like products and partnerships.

  @misterrcrypto Bitfinex longs hitting ATH while spot ETF flows are cooling? Classic setup. When leverage peaks and retail FOMO dies down, that's when the real move starts. Watch for the flush before the moon.

  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.
