~dorsen-witnes (@fazzam_eth) reportedReally strong stuff. There’s a lot of precedent for successfully navigating an event like this in defi. Bitfinex repaid 36% of customer assets in 8 months and came back stronger than before. Euler lost $197M, made everyone whole, and relaunched bigger than it ever was. Crypto doesn't punish teams for getting hit but for leaving holes. This is textbook comms so far.

lil retard (@comic) reported@theswansjr I bought my first stack of BTC in 2013 at $300. Lost 100+ BTC to mtgox and bitfinex hacks I’ve been a long term believer but the narrative isn’t intact anymore. Performance has been terrible. Taken over by grifters. Your capital is better invested in high growth companies with defensible technology’s

faizco. (@PhaResearcher) reportedBitcoin just hit a monthly high of $65,500. Nobody actually bought it there. That's not a typo. Look at what happened underneath the price. The day before this rally started, US spot Bitcoin ETFs sold about $425 million worth of bitcoin. Strategy bought nothing. Look at the Coinbase premium, the number that tells you whether American money is actually stepping in, is still negative. So what moved the price. A softer than expected inflation report. That single print cut the odds of a July rate hike from 42% down to around 12%, and bond yields dropped with it. Bitcoin didn't rally because people wanted bitcoin. It rallied because it's priced like every other risk asset right now, and every other risk asset just got a green light on rates. Bitfinex's own analysts have a name for this kind of move. Borrowed strength. Every real bitcoin uptrend in this cycle has had one thing in common, a buyer who shows up regardless of price, absorbing whatever gets sold into them. That buyer isn't here right now. What's here is a rate bet, and rate bets can reverse the moment the next data print disagrees with this one. This is the difference between a market that wants an asset and a market that's just borrowing someone else's optimism for a few days. One of those holds. The other one gets called back the second the mood changes. I'll be watching Friday's data for whether that buyer shows up. Worth bookmarking this one, because if the premium flips positive this week, that's the actual signal, not the price.

Not Another Quant (@notanotherquant) reportedIs there any hope for the bitcoin:native bears? It may take a special event to do it. The Bull Market Support Band (BMSB 20W MA/21W EMA) acts as support during the bull and resistance during the bear. Currently Bitcoin has pushed up and closed above the BMSB. If a quick reversal isn't found the trend will shift into a bull. In a bull trend, the times it has been knocked below the BMSB have been due to a catalyst. In 2015 it was Bitfinex liquidations similar to October 10, 2025. In 2019 the Repo crisis made it oscillate around the band and it took the 2020 pandemic to dump us lower. In 2023 it was the banking crisis and Bitcoin wicked below the band to ~20k, but the chance only lasted days. Each time the recovery was quick and it was another chance to buy the bottom range. Will we get that chance again?

Jason Montoya (@jaysmontoya) reported@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.

Muntari Abdulhamid (@SupplyDemand29) reported$BTC BITCOIN BOUNCES TO $64,812 AND ETHEREUM LEADS - BUT DON'T GET TRAPPED Today's market is doing the exact opposite of yesterday and most people will misread it. BTC is up to $64,812 from $64,246 open. Low was $63,267, high $65,176. We bounced $1,500 from yesterday's dump. ETH is at $1,922 up 1.12%, high $1,936 low $1,872. ETH/BTC at 0.0297 - ETH is beating BTC again. So what changed in 24 hours? Yesterday Korea's KOSPI crashed 10% and dragged us to $63K. Today Korea crashed again and Bitcoin went UP toward $64K. That's called decoupling. Bitfinex predicted this. When stress is rates-driven, BTC dumps with stocks. When stress is stock-specific like chipmakers Samsung and SK Hynix, BTC decouples and holds. That's exactly what happened today. Second, Fed relief. The panic before Fed is over. Market is positioned. Bitcoin held the $63K support and 50-day EMA at $65,089 area, printed its 4th weekly gain structure intact.

8️⃣6️⃣.gwei (@russian_bot_69) reported@tulipking imo the only way to grow a centralized stablecoin is by having a dominant consumer product take the lead on pushing distribution: bitfinex pushed tether when it was dominant coinbase pushed usdc as second mover, still worked bc it was a rapidly growing coinbase doing the pushing not circle other exchanges now doing same eating market share being a middleman/infra (circle spinoff) just makes you slow to react and anticipate. they need their own dominant consumer app, whether its trading, payments or whatever can get them to dominate distribution if it was an actually 100% decentralized stablecoin like a liquity or raidollar then yeah the long term slow approach of credibly neutral middleman/infra could work. but all circle is offering is assurance of following regulations, which a decade in many players understand how to do themselves now

Giacomo ShadowUNbanned Zucco (@giacomozucco) reported@gegelsmr4 Interestingly enough, this (interesting) ethical problem is only practically relevant if you are going to send the feds after them. Which is a retarded thing to do anyway, since the feds steal much more money (with violence and guns, not "finding" it) and even if they caught the attackers would keep the loot for themselves (cf Bitfinex). So it's a theoretically important question which cyphertank theory makes irrelevant: just make your keys hard to find.

Ajay Khosla (@Kenny_Khosla) reportedBitcoin: $63.7K. This week's rally to $65K was a macro trade, not a crypto one — per Bitfinex, driven by the CPI-triggered Fed repricing (hike odds 42%→12%), not fresh BTC demand. Evidence: ETFs sold $425M right before CPI, Strategy bought nothing, and the Coinbase premium's still negative. Meanwhile, the real story today is AI stocks — the semiconductor ETF (SOXX) is down 17.6% since July 1, with Micron, SanDisk, Intel all down 4-8% just today. Bitcoin's pullback looks tame by comparison.

crypto_mit ( 🗽/ Acc ) (@Cryptomit) reported@ArjunKalsy It was nothing to do with bitmart and bitfinex though about points you mentioned, they didn’t went bankrupt had a restriction wind down, No tokens has any utility there’s nothing that can ever exist, Holders are fin savy folks and builders using protocol are dev savy one dosnt does the either No protocol has idea of how they’ll infuse rev from devs to token or even intend to Only protocols like hyperliquid have an intersection of users into rev and token Hard market as attention is hard to keep might not be hard to get

Bitfinex was the #1 exchange by volume outside China, whose exchanges were shut down and excluded from data. i.e. you have to ignore the #1 data source to get this

Jacob King (@JacobKinge) reportedBitcoin is the most centralized asset ever, marketed as “decentralized.” If you understand how the Bitcoin blockchain actually works, it becomes obvious that it is not immutable or untouchable. The code can be changed, and the chain can be controlled through coordination. For those who don’t know, Bitcoin runs on a single public blockchain, and control of that chain comes from who produces the blocks. Today, block production is dominated by only 4 mining pools: Foundry USA (30%), AntPool (18%), ViaBTC (11%), and F2Pool (10%). Together, the top pools routinely control over 65% of total hash power, and the top 5 over 75%. Officially, these pools are “separate” on paper, but they all work together. They share the exact same private funding, have same aligned incentives, and overlapping miners. This creates a de facto centralization where a single group influences block production, censors transactions, or pushes protocol changes at will. In reality, fewer than 10 people control most of Bitcoin through the top mining pools and core developers. Revealed from the Epstein files, Israel also funded much of this early development, covering over 60% of the core developers’ salaries. “Decentralized” is purely marketing. Stablecoins give this same cabal another lever over Bitcoin. They want prices up? Easy. They print unbacked Tether or USDC out of thin air and inject it into exchanges they control or influence, like FTX (before it collapsed), Binance, Bitfinex, Coinbase, and others. They want prices down? Just pretend to burn the coins, trigger panic, and the market enters a bear phase. These mechanisms make Bitcoin’s price highly manipulable despite its “free market” image. When a small group produces most of the blocks, transaction censorship, reordering, and enforced protocol changes are no longer hypothetical. Bitcoin is marketed as pseudo-anonymous and seizure-resistant, yet governments have seized millions of dollars in BTC with ease. Do you ever wonder how? The 2021 Colonial Pipeline ransomware payment was traced and recovered almost immediately by the FBI, which they later admitted they got access to the wallet’s private key (Very sus!). Similar seizures occurred with Silk Road, the Bitfinex hack funds, and multiple darknet and ransomware cases. This level of enforcement is incompatible with claims of true privacy or sovereignty. They clearly have backdoor access. Bitcoin functions like a Trojan horse. It was hyped as a financial miracle, sold to the masses, and accepted without skepticism. In reality, it is a speculative gambling chip, heavily surveilled and quietly managed by insiders. Strip away the mythology and it is no more valuable than a digital beanie baby with better marketing.

CryptoSavingExpert ® (@CryptoSavingExp) reportedBITFINEX SECURITIES COMPLETES RECORD $50M TOKENIZED CAPITAL RAISE Bitfinex Securities has completed its largest-ever tokenized capital raise, securing $50 million for metals company Alkemya through the ALKN token. ALKN represents fractional interests in a Luxembourg partnership holding around 7 million metres of 99.99% pure nickel wire, independently valued at approximately $1.64 billion. The funds will help Alkemya commercialise engineered nickel products for industries including semiconductors, aerospace and defence. This is another major example of real-world assets moving onchain. Tokenisation is moving far beyond Bitcoin and stablecoins. Stocks, Treasuries, commodities and other traditional assets are increasingly being represented on blockchain networks. And $50M is now the largest capital raise completed through Bitfinex Securities. The race to bring traditional financial assets onchain is accelerating.

Julitta Ayan (@_Tyrano_) reported@dahongfei @BitMEX Bitmex was never a surprisingly large exchange, while Bitfinex where $neo was delisted is vastly bigger and far more active. Long-term survival does not equal success; on the contrary, ur persistent problems continue to cause full or partial delistings across multiple platforms.

catching flaws (@catchingflaws) reportedAlts did a full 180: 67 green, 9 red, avg +2.8%. $ARB +35% on record DEX volume — the L2 finally woke up. $DASH +12.9% riding the privacy bid, OI up 49%. Losers are rounding error: $POL -4.2%, $LEO's -2.4% is just Bitfinex noise. BTC dom 59.1%. Sentiment: BUY — 67/9 breadth, alts beating BTC as dominance slips.

EyeOnChain (@EyeOnChain) reportedAbraxas Capital isn't slowing down its ETH buying. Over the past 7 hours, Abraxas Capital has withdrawn more than 15,477 ETH, worth over $29.88 million, from major exchanges. That brings its total ETH accumulation over the past week to more than 48,996 ETH, valued at over $88 million, withdrawn from Binance, Bybit, and Bitfinex. The steady stream of exchange withdrawals suggests Abraxas continues to aggressively accumulate ETH rather than keeping it on trading platforms.
