  • kowsikkiko kowsik babu (@kowsikkiko) reported

    @eliz883 Ironically, shorts have gone down 30% from market open on BITFINEX, are we seeing a reversal @eliz883

  • Bitfinexed Bitfinex’ed 🔥 (@Bitfinexed) reported

    Some people have noticed I am using the term "Tether Bros". Who are the Tether Bros? Bitfinex/Tether employees, friends & Tethers so-called "Direct customers." Stuart specifically states that they never denied a redemption to a "Tether Customer", there's very few of those.

    @ramza07 @Mister_Ch0c Just take a look what happend to Bitfinex reserves since the carsh The alternative would probably be driving the price down too fast

  • milner_aviv Aviv Milner (@milner_aviv) reported

    Reporter: So even when the website was not functional in 2017, were people able to redeem #tethers in 2017? Stu: Paolo, would you like to answer this? Paolo: COVERING FIRE. Yes. Ofc you could redeem #tether on #Bitfinex. Even though this is not the process of redemption.

  • vhranger Matt Ranger (@vhranger) reported

    "Even when the website was not functional in 2017 people could redeem?" Paolo: "People redeemed through bitfinex then" uh uh

  • DmitryV32748638 DmV (@DmitryV32748638) reported

    @mark_cullen @bitfinex How do you know if it's a single person? Do yoy believe that price suppression may have taken place all along the way down?

  • DonTravlos Don Travlos 🦜🐬 🏴 (@DonTravlos) reported

    This whole market feels like rubbish, we broke the much watched $30K level volumes are better, shorts at Bitfinex are down. IV has spiked but nothing to write home about. We are below every moving average you can calculate. Its every definition of a bear market. Yet.. #bitcoin

  • MaxamedW85 Mohammed Elmi (@MaxamedW85) reported

    @binance It’s become a crypto casino and you have no shame. Tricking your customers, in bed with Bitfinex / Tether / Madoff level scam. One day Binance will be closed down and you all behind bars.

  • sajjad_zaidi_1 Bear2b (@sajjad_zaidi_1) reported

    @bitfinex @wavesprotocol What a terrible timing, thanks for ruining my short position 🤕

  • Sherblockchain Sherblock Holmes (@Sherblockchain) reported

    @AltcoinDailyio This isn’t a dump, it’s a slow controlled bleed. Recent dumps: - 30% in 12 hours - 24% in 3 days Now it’s taken 8 days to bleed 14% Note open shorts on Bitfinex, increased 600% in 7 days, but 74% of shorts have been closed. Slow bleed & that short activity = manipulation

  • luuuuuksta Crypto_Luca (@luuuuuksta) reported

    @bitfinex will you Support SGB AirDrop from the FLARE networks that will happen soon?

  • profeessorr 先生 (@profeessorr) reported

    . Bitfinex 218 BTC (2%) Please note that large withdrawals from exchanges that don’t support custody solutions or OTC desks could be an internal transfer. We would change data if there is evidence of an internal transfer after investigating wallets

  • cholo7475 Jorge Perez (@cholo7475) reported

    @WClementeIII @glassnode the problem is the majority leverage are longs. in just bitfinex 53k btc long vs 5k shorts. i feel like another liquidation cascade event in the works. a quick and hard wick down to 22-24k in play

  • 23ebf4c6f3af4ec Jia914 (@23ebf4c6f3af4ec) reported

    @misconfig_exe The BTC LONG on bitfinex has increased a lot,What do you think? And now that the Dow is down like crazy, do you think this will have a correlative effect?

  • botfatherr The Botfather (@botfatherr) reported

    @TraderKoz According to the Bitfinex order book $30k offers support

  • KyleSGibson Kyle S. Gibson (@KyleSGibson) reported

    @mosheroperandi @CasPiancey for a time the only customer of Tether was Bitfinex

  • CasPiancey Cas “Mildly Interesting” Piancey (@CasPiancey) reported

    If the way to redeem Tether is still thru Bitfinex then there’s problems.

  • jithamithra Jitha Thathachari (@jithamithra) reported

    @naval 14/ Because they "know" that Tether (or its parent, Bitfinex) will honor the 1:1 peg. It all comes down to a (*drumroll*) trusted third party. Who'd have thought! But let's say the peg moves a little farther than usual, during an especially volatile time. What happens then?

  • tim35214181 tim (@tim35214181) reported

    @KamilNosal5 @gogetter2021 @WClementeIII Means there is less short interest open. 65% of the shorts on bitfinex have been closed (have to buy btc at market price when closing short) price is still going down with shorts being closed. Not bullish

  • BTCOlN JZay (@BTCOlN) reported

    @AltcoinPsycho Probably USDC because certain regulators clearly have a problem with @bitfinex

  • adamscochran Adam Cochran (@adamscochran) reported

    @CasPiancey Imagine you send 1 USDT to Tether’s designated redemption account which is a wallet they hold with Bitfinex. In turn you are wired 1 USD and the USDT is out of circulation. Next time someone wires them 1 USD, the send them that 1 USDT back into circulation. What’s the issue?

  • BLCK47887881 BL CK (@BLCK47887881) reported

    @thearcanebear @FreddieOctopus smart shorts are slowly closing, first bounce back to PoC before deep leg down ... bitfinex longs at ATH, theres fuel for upcoming devastation

  • DJM1232 Grizzly Gus (@DJM1232) reported

    @vanreanalyst @RicoGomez_ @SteveSaretsky Nothing Burger? They co-mingled funds with Bitfinex, lied about reserves, and for a while had no access to banking anywhere in the world but their reserves still grew! They are banned from doing business in NY (ever hear of Wall Street). Dealing with NYAG here, wait for DOJ

  • Jin_Gr Kizashi Crypto (@Jin_Gr) reported

    @InspoCrypto So these guys put a leverage x1 < x < x2.8 only from 46k to 29600 it is 36% drop. These guys represents 80% of all longs on bitfinex? Impossible or I don’t understand what Roong explained….

  • cheweilian William Chen (@cheweilian) reported

    @bitfinex still cannot access bitfinex website

  • WTwins210 AmericanIgnoranceIsBliss (@WTwins210) reported

    @siipiorg @InspoCrypto @paoloardoino They were fined because they did an illegal activity between bitfinex and tether by transfering investors money from tether to bitfinex to cover the money lost by bitfinex because of the banking issue bitfinex had with a bank in the caymens go read the nyag report
