    @crypto_iso Bitfinex shorts haven't moved down 1 inch. In fact, they've gone up

  • Google_Jump Crypto Fox (@Google_Jump) reported

    @guylincolnsmith @smdiehl People by tethers but through bitfinex, thus are only redeemable through the market. This is only speculation don't take as fact but they've openly said their weekend transactions are because their biggest customer all banks on the Bahamas (bitfinex)

  • prabalgupta131 CanadianTrader (@prabalgupta131) reported

    @paoloardoino @bitfinex Hey Paolo- Can you ask the support team to look into incorrect pnl being given. Had 2 trades from last night which were supposed to be closed on breakeven, yet pnl was negative, and reports and everything suggest calculation was wrong. Have moved to FTX as support is so useless

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

    It’s actually p funny to me that even former Bitfinex employees attest to VDV being a ghost. I want to know why the CEO and CFO of the seventh largest commercial paper holder in the world won’t sit down for an interview.

  • ScrtAtom AtomBoy (@ScrtAtom) reported

    @CryptoA40672341 Sources say Bitfinex shorties are gona short the **** out of ICP! I will wait and buy for $10.

  • jstarklefkowitz Justin Lefkowitz (@jstarklefkowitz) reported

    @nntaleb The huge problem is that there is such a huge percent of every major crypto on bitfinex that most major big crypto operators have to deal in tether to make big trades. It also means other big exchanges face customer pressure to deal with usdt.

  • money_brrr obnoxious seagull (@money_brrr) reported

    @DaddyDOGEtoken @bitfinex What in the actual **** is this

  • ScrtAtom AtomBoy (@ScrtAtom) reported

    @XMaximist Icp is not going to move. Once listed on Bitfinex they’re gona dump, and Bitfinex is notorious for shorting the **** out of coins so go figure.

  • codex_coin CoinStarCodex (@codex_coin) reported

    @lsukernik We'd like to see you produce this "grant". I think your name is completely tarnished at this point and without a grant to parse, you should step down. We don't need UNI to be the next Bitfinex of shady characters.

  • Ellenire1 Duck, Duck... Goose! (@Ellenire1) reported

    @ahcastor 👆🏻 the biggest crypto crime is how UNBACKED exchanges are for their customers holdings. Tether is $60B short, who knows about USDC, but I bet if you were to combine Binance, BitFinex, etc. there would be hundreds of billions worth of reserves missing to service holdings.

  • TrystonPerry Tryston (@TrystonPerry) reported

    Bitfinex order book ws API is the only one that doesn't specify if an order is an ask or a bid. Thank you based **** exchanges.

  • sashiminakamoto Algo Trader (@sashiminakamoto) reported

    $btc shorts up 9.5% to 13.5k at Bitfinex. $eth shorts down 13.7% to 121k. Prepare for the $33k dam to break.

  • JustInnNovel JustInNovel ❤️🦊(♠️) 🇸🇻 (@JustInnNovel) reported

    @WClementeIII Bitfinex shorts say down only right now

  • carrisamarie0 Carrisa Palmieri (@carrisamarie0) reported

    @bitfinex @fractalprtcl Hello investors Know the difference between holding your crypto in an exchange wallet or in a decentralized wallet. Don’t just hold your crypto in your exchange wallet, You have to put your crypto to work by investing with a professional trader to help you accumulate wealth #btc

  • JustInnNovel JustInNovel ❤️🦊(♠️) 🇸🇻 (@JustInnNovel) reported

    @vitaliknakamot0 @WClementeIII Wrong. The past three times Bitfinex has shorted massively the Price did go down tho the last time by not very much

  • Ranbato Ranbato (@Ranbato) reported

    @afiser13 @bccponzi Why not? If one needs to move assets off an exchange in a hurry, withdrawing BTC / ETH is a great option. Could even argue it has already happened once when NY cracked down on Bitfinex late February.

  • david_seroy David Seroy (@david_seroy) reported

    @BennettTomlin /2 b. exchanges are stuck holding the tether bag. they could sell bitcoin redeem customer, but likely they'll likely do some sort of financial engineering like Bitfinex did and issue a shitcoin/equity. neither scenario indicates direct and negative bitcoin price action

  • cryptoNosf Crypto Nosf (PNT to $30) (@cryptoNosf) reported

    @GokhanGark If drawn on bitfinex - where it's possible to take March/April 2020 in account - absolute channel support is at around 0.5-0.55. It could wick there, but we're not far anyway. And with 0.5 area - $pnt would be like 15 mil mcap. There's not much risk left. Unless all nukes hard.

  • gatesofknowledg Ali Farhan (@gatesofknowledg) reported

    @insiliconot @EricKowalik If you gib bitfinex a doji at support, that is no longer support my friend

  • LeoMorozovskii Leo Morozovskii (@LeoMorozovskii) reported

    @bradmillscan Oh yeah, outage of centralized exchanges like Binance, Bitfinex, Bitmex to cause massive losses to traders from unexpected liquidations, not filled limit orders, spoofing trading orders. DeFi is so much better than this. What are you even talking about?

  • Google_Jump Crypto Fox (@Google_Jump) reported

    @guylincolnsmith @smdiehl Because their only customer is Bitfinex. Few understand.

    @AltcoinDailyio i'd buy more $BMI. it's a new insurance platform, decentralized and designed for everyone who want to purchase or provide #insurance on #stablecoins, smart contracts, cexes... their app is working already and they recently announced partnerships with @Tether_to and @bitfinex.

  • attarian13 Attarian (@attarian13) reported

    @paoloardoino Maybe I dreamt about it, but you do have a CnhT and a tether gold, I though I came accross EurT once , but not even on bitfinex. I can't find EurT on your website anymore though.

  • AxA1302 A (@AxA1302) reported

    @crypt0_beluga @jim_b4_the_rugs What do Bitfinex and Bitmex have to do with eachother now? Give me one piece of evidence for all of the claims in the OP then. "God access"? Lmao. I don't tweet because idiots like you would be wasting my time.

  • paoloardoino Paolo Ardoino (@paoloardoino) reported

    @koshp @bitfinex Working on that too.

  • arielstulberg Ariel Stulberg (@arielstulberg) reported

    @ncweaver @jaypinho Couldn't there be other explanations for Tether demand? Say, Chinese users who can't access banked exchanges and have no use for USD? Or criminals? Or whoever. I think Tether/Bitfinex seem capable of whatever, but just to cross t's.
