  @bitfinex That’s a big shift. $73.5K turning from resistance into support would be a really solid sign for BTC.

  On 15th August 2010, a single Bitcoin transaction created 184,467,440,737 coins. That is 8,784 times the entire 21 million supply cap. Two addresses received 92 billion each. The fix took five hours, and it was written by hand. The supply limit everyone treats as a law of mathematics has already failed once and been restored by people. It happened again in 2018, when a second inflation path was found and patched before anyone used it. The cap survived because when it broke, humans coordinated inside an afternoon. Fungibility has no such defence. There is no consensus rule anywhere in Bitcoin saying one coin must be accepted like any other, so there is nothing to violate, nothing to patch, and no emergency to coordinate around. It has been eroding for a decade and no client has ever shipped a fix, because no rule was ever broken. The Bitcoin taken from Coldcard wallets are the current demonstration. More than 1,367 bitcoin:native and Galaxy Research says most of it has not moved. Every node on earth treats those outputs as perfectly spendable. Bitcoin has no stolen flag, no freeze, no administrator and no way to reverse a confirmed transaction. They are still close to "unusable" anywhere that checks identity. That decision is made outside the protocol entirely. Analytics firms score provenance, exchanges screen deposits, and custodians act on the result. There is no canonical formula for any of it. One provider models ownership clusters, another estimates proportional exposure, another counts hops. CoinJoin breaks assumptions several of those methods rely on. Two exchanges can examine the same output and reach opposite conclusions. So clean and ***** are not properties of a satoshi. They are privately manufactured 'credit ratings' attached to history. Which means the split forming is not two coins at two prices. It is a compliance spread. On-chain a bitcoin holds its full face value. At the regulated edge, what it is actually worth is that price multiplied by the odds an institution accepts where it has been. Bitfinex settles what that means in practice. Of 119,756 bitcoin stolen in 2016, roughly 25,000 moved through years of laundering. Over 94,000 were recovered, and not because any blacklist disabled them. Investigators obtained the private keys. Watching narrows the exits. Taking them back still requires control. Some read all of this as proof of the asset's strength, on the reasoning that only real value attracts theft and scrutiny at this scale. Criminals take enormous risks for cash, gold, art and data too! The harder observation is structural. Bitcoin fixed the scarcity problem that fiat has. It never solved the fungibility problem that cash solved by accident, because paper carries no history. Bitcoin carries all of it, forever, and the protocol has no opinion about what that history should cost you. One supply. One settlement ledger. And a growing number of private ledgers deciding whose spending gets accepted.

  BITFINEX 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.

  @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.

  my journey to safely custody bitcoin: first heard about bitcoin in 2011 and stored it on MyBitcoin because it was literally called MyBitcoin > website disappeared with my bitcoin started over and deposited it into Bitcoin Savings & Trust because a man named pirateat40 was paying a very sustainable 7% per week > ponzi collapsed > lost all my bitcoin started over on Mt. Gox because the exchange handling most global bitcoin volume had to be the safe one > 647,000 BTC stolen > bankruptcy > lost all my bitcoin started over on Bitfinex because exchanges had surely learned their lesson > 120,000 BTC hack > every customer received a 36% haircut and an IOU token moved what remained to BTC-e because nothing says trustworthy custodian like “BTC-e” > operator arrested and servers seized put the recovery stack into BitConnect because its proprietary volatility trading bot guaranteed daily returns > hey hey heyyyy > lost all my bitcoin started over on QuadrigaCX because Canada felt responsible > CEO died in India, supposed cold wallets were empty and the exchange turned out to be a ponzi > lost all my bitcoin finally learned “not your keys, not your coins” and ordered a Ledger > Ledger leaked my name, phone number and home address still had the bitcoin though, so wrapped it and deposited it into BadgerDAO because decentralized finance eliminated counterparty risk > front end compromised > lost all my bitcoin bought a Bitcoin-only, air-gapped Coldcard in 2021, generated a fresh seed and moved my long-term stack there > finally safe used the trading stack to buy UST because bitcoin was too volatile and “stable” was literally in the name > deposited it into Anchor for a modest 20% risk-free yield > death spiral > lost all my stable bitcoin unbanked myself with Celsius > withdrawals frozen moved to Voyager because it was publicly traded > bankruptcy started buying on FTX because Tom Brady, an arena and effective altruism felt like sufficient due diligence > bankruptcy started over on BlockFi because FTX had just rescued it > FTX bankruptcy also bankrupted BlockFi tried Gemini Earn because this time the exchange was regulated and run by two people > Genesis froze withdrawals gave up on custodians and downloaded Atomic Wallet because “atomic” sounded difficult to hack > $100 million hack stored my seed phrase in LastPass so I could never lose it > LastPass hackers found it before I did went back to Japan and bought on DMM because surely Japanese exchanges had learned from Mt. Gox > 4,502.9 BTC stolen > exchange shut down then in 2026 learned the Coldcard seed protecting my long-term stack had as little as 40 bits of entropy > wallet drained remotely researched multisig for three straight days, ordered a Trezor as another signer and finally achieved real cold storage > shipping provider leaked my full name, email, phone number and home address my bitcoin is now completely secure because there is none left, but fortunately everyone knows where I live. this is satire > if you made it this far go check out @SolarisAI_fun for the most undervalued infrastructure utility play in web3

  4/10 Cash is not flowing to “the RWA market.” It is flowing to whoever already owns the stack. Alkemya turns idle wire into working capital for GTX. Bitfinex Securities gets a record commodity listing under El Salvador’s rules. Vault, audit, and venues get paid for the plumbing whether a deep bid shows up or not. Subscribers only start getting paid after the waterfall moves: capital back, 6% preferred, then 80% of surplus. Until a distribution hits, outside money is the product being tested.

  $UNI already down 5.5% over 4 hours, and $2.8M just landed on Binance, Bitget, Gate and Bitfinex in the last hour. this isn't the early signal, it's supply still showing up while the move is already happening. one wallet, 0x28c6…1d60, sent $2.0M straight onto Binance by itself. that's not a smear of small deposits, that's one player moving real size. worth noting, "Ceffu Deposit" also pulled $101K off Binance in this window, and we've clocked that wallet before, it moved on LINK back in August and that one barely budged the price over the next 8 hours. mixed signals in the same hour. coins on exchanges can be sold, they're not guaranteed to be. go trace the $2.0M yourself if you don't believe the number.

  ***** Woo gives 20-40% odds of partial COLDCARD coin recovery by authorities over a multiyear window Past precedent backs it up: $6.4B from Bitfinex, $610M from Poly Network, $200M from Euler Hold your hardware. File a report. Never pay a "recovery" service.

  @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.

  CENTRALIZED EXCHANGE ASSET FLOWS Where is capital moving across centralized exchanges this month? Looking at 30-day net flows across 65+ tracked CEXs, the picture shows a clear shift in capital and confidence between platforms. As of August 6, 2026, total CEX assets stand at $244.6B, down from $246.86B 30 days earlier — a net decline of $2.26B (-0.92%). ◾ 28 exchanges recorded inflows totaling +$893.5M ◾ 37 exchanges saw outflows totaling -$3.15B ◾ OKX: -$1.186B (-5.59%) ◾ Bybit: -$604.2M ◾ Bitfinex: +$263.91M ◾ Deribit: +$257.36M Bitfinex and Deribit attracted the strongest inflows relative to their size, while OKX and Bybit experienced some of the largest capital outflows. The broader takeaway: capital is leaving CEXs overall, but the flow between individual platforms is telling a much more interesting story.

A toy photo, a broken render, a nickname that stuck. That’s how $FEFER was born. Not from a whitepaper, not from a marketing plan. From CT deciding a jaw that never loaded was funnier than anything a team could have scripted. ➜ First launch failed ➜ Team stepped back ➜ Community didn’t That sequence matters more than people give it credit for. Most memes die the moment the original push loses steam. Fefer got a second life because the people holding it treated the token like it was worth continuing, not restarting. ➜ Relaunched on @coinsdot + @Stable ➜ Snapshot of 4,827 original holders ➜ Airdropped directly, no claim forms, nobody left behind That’s not a small detail. Snapshotting the original holders instead of starting a fresh cap table is the difference between “new project borrowing an old joke” and “same community, new chapter.” Where it stands right now: ➜ $3.9M market cap ➜ $569K liquidity ➜ Live on a USDT-powered L1 backed by Bitfinex and PayPal Ventures Stable is still early. Its identity is still being written in real time, and the projects active in it now are the ones that end up shaping what people associate with the chain later. $FEFER isn’t trying to win on utility. It’s trying to win on being unforgettable, and a meme that survives its own failed launch and still gets airdropped back to the exact people who believed in it the first time is hard to forget. Nobody decides which meme becomes the face of a chain. The timeline does. 👀 Fefer didn’t restart. Fefer continued.

  As long as Bitfinex whales are accumulating longs we are not near a cycle bottom and this chart is telling pretty much the truth about the current situation. Historically every time when they were opening longs Bitcoin went down. But as soon as this reverses a bullrun could accelerate fast.
