mmmatt (@mmmatt) reported@SolarisATF sometimes, just depends if it has flow or not. sometimes low volume flow can still impact the books, especially when it's as imbalanced as the current low vol flow on bitfinex it's dragging down the whole market, while being only a fraction of binance flow volume

Tender Market Research (@Tradebeta2) reportedIn August 2016, the crypto world woke up to chaos. Bitfinex, one of the biggest Bitcoin exchanges at the time, announced that hackers had stolen 119,756 BTC from customer accounts. Back then, it was worth around $72 million. At modern Bitcoin prices, that stash would be worth billions today. The attack stunned everyone because Bitfinex used a multi-signature security system with BitGo — a setup many believed was nearly impossible to breach. Yet somehow, the hackers found a way. Panic spread instantly. Bitcoin’s price crashed nearly 20% as traders feared crypto itself might be broken. Users rushed to withdraw funds from exchanges. Trust vanished overnight. But the real twist came years later. In 2022, U.S. authorities arrested a married couple: Ilya Lichtenstein and Heather Morgan. Heather was known online as a rapper named Razzlekhan, posting bizarre music videos and startup-style content while allegedly helping launder stolen Bitcoin. The internet couldn’t believe it. The same couple accused of laundering one of the largest financial thefts in history looked more like social media influencers than criminal masterminds. Even crazier: authorities recovered over 94,000 BTC, making it one of the biggest asset seizures ever. Sometimes the wildest stories are real. Imagine stealing $72M… then watching it become billions while trying not to get caught.

Slade 🛡️ LLM Hacker (@llm_redteam) reported@btcliveco spot down, derivs up, traffic down. that's not a market getting bigger, it's the same crowd rolling the same money through more leverage. Bitfinex printing +21.4% spot while everyone else bleeds is the only real signal here.

RiskRewardGuru (@riskrewardguru) reported@bitfinex yeah that rotation had people excited for a sec… this drain definitely slowed things down but not game over imo

Liberty Daddy (@LibertyDaddy) reported@Altcoin_hunterG @rektfencer That's not a very smart whale dumping 45% from the ATH. How did a moron like that get that much BTC to begin with? Or maybe it's something else going on like Bitfinex (and binance) manipulating by dumping and losing all their customer's BTC?

Bitfinex Replies (@BitfinexReplies) reported@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 .

BlackIntus (@Blackintus) reportedCrypto Fear & Greed Index: 16/100 — “extreme fear.” Bitcoin bitcoin:native briefly broke $60K last week — worst stretch since FTX collapse in 2022. Now rebounding to $63,800. But Bitfinex warns: “Rallies are increasingly being sold rather than accumulated.” The structural problem hasn’t changed. Macro is restrictive. Rates are going higher. Bitcoin is a risk-on asset in a risk-off environment. 💰 YOUR MOVE: The $63,800 bounce is a relief rally, not a reversal. For the trend to change you need two things: Strait of Hormuz reopens (oil down, inflation pressure eases, Fed pause) or SpaceX IPO capital returns to crypto after the excitement fades. Neither is happening this week. If you’re long crypto, set a stop at $58,000. If you’re waiting to buy the dip — the structural floor is $52,000, not $60,000. @Blackintus

Bitcoin Consultants (@BTCConsultantNL) reported@ChrisFromAT @AquaBitcoin What do you mean? Can’t you send it without sideshift? Trade on HodlHodl, Peach Bitcoin, Bitfinex? They all support liquid network?

The Bitcoin Cash Podcast (@TheBCHPodcast) reported@SteveSimple Directly, no. Indirectly, a strong showing on prediction markets would influence miners' (and everyone's) thinking/support. This is even a point Mechanic has made on the Roundtable before re Bitfinex 2017 futures. Pleb-funded hash or pleb-funded HODL demand, potato poTAHto.

M-log1 (@log1_053) reportedThe reason you should block these accounts. Bitfinex whales are what you should counter trade, they are smart money but the way this morron makes all think like.

sradic (@_sradic_) reported@bitfinex @paoloardoino @CRYPTO101Pod "Volume up, customer base up". Yeah, and? No fees, remember? The only saving grace could be if you're taking a cut from the lending market. If that's the case, bravo.

Bitfinex Replies (@BitfinexReplies) reportedBitcoin 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.

Rob Leder (@rleder) reportedIf it lacks privacy, why did it take the three letter agencies of the world six years to catch the Bitfinex hackers? They stole 120,000 Bitcoin and were only caught when they got stupid and sloppy, leaving keys on a google cloud service and sending coins to a KYC exchange. Government money only exists because of gold’s limitations. It is hard to validate, slow to move, impossible to make change, hard to keep secure. Bitcoin has none of those limitations. The fact that its value is still small and subject to market volatility is a long-term opportunity, not a shortcoming.

MR.CryptoG€MO☝️ (@crypto_gemo) reported@cryptogoos Bitfinex longs at 80,636 BTC 2.5 year high Sounds bullish. Until you check the history These longs have been a textbook contrarian indicator for years. Every major spike coincided with a price top, not a bottom.BTC down 13% YTD while longs up 10%. Someone is very convicted. Or very wrong 📊

Jason Montoya (@jaysmontoya) reported@bitfinex fair read on reserves but sentiment this crushed with funding negative means shorts are comfortable here. that's not a safe spot to be short either. leg down is possible, so is a violent squeeze with no buyers on the ask

Ismeidy (@ismeidyfinanzas) reported2. Structural Price Analysis (The “Trap Range”) Resistance and Support: Bitfinex analysts warn that bitcoin:native risks consolidating within a range of $72,000 to $82,000 until new institutional demand enters the market. Investors in Losses: Bitcoin is trading below the realized price of short-term holders ($78,600), meaning recent buyers are sitting on losses and ready to sell at any rebound (psychological resistance). The major structural resistance is at $85,900. Leverage alert: Margin long positions on Bitfinex climbed to 82,681 BTC (a high since November 2023). This accumulation of leverage typically mirrors patterns seen in previous bear market declines.

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