-
Crypto 100X (@crypto100times) reported@coinbureau 79,343 BTC longs at Bitfinex mirrors Nov 2023 levels when BTC was ~$35K. Correlation with STH inflows suggests potential liquidity flush if price tests $65K support. Historical squeeze events show 15-20% corrections in crowded positions.

0xsimba ⌘ (🌸, 🌿) 🛸 (@0xbrel) reported@bitfinex This is the divergence nobody's talking about enough. Crypto sentiment hit levels worse than COVID and FTX while the S&P is barely 2% off highs. That gap has to close. Either equities catch down or crypto catches up. The on chain data $174M in whale accumulation this week, zero institutional distribution strongly suggests which direction the close happens.

Bitfinex Replies (@BitfinexReplies) reported@Tryzub_X @bitfinex The market despite these signals remains unstable, it's impossible to know the direction. What you think about it? Feel free to follow us @Tryzub_X.

ShrimpCapital (@shrimp_capital) reported@hellojintao I don't think so. Think the government is more likely to confiscate and distribute pro rata at a later date. Maybe an overhang like bitfinex for years. Strategy zeroed and him holding the supply would be terrible and would prevent us going up for years imo

Crypto Newsletter ₿ (@cryptonewsleter) reported🚨 UK BANK DATA BREACH Lloyds Banking Group hit by an IT glitch exposing data of ~450,000 customers. Transaction details + personal info reportedly leaked. Another reminder: centralized systems = single point of failure. 🚨 BITCOIN LONGS SPIKE — WARNING SIGNAL? BTC longs on Bitfinex just hit highest level since Nov 2023. Position count: 79,000+ Historically, spikes like this often precede short-term tops and potential long squeezes. ⚡ AI JUST SHOOK CYBERSEC STOCKS Anthropic’s new “Mythos” model triggered a sharp selloff: Cyber ETF: -4.5% Tenable: -9% Okta: -7% CrowdStrike: -6% Reason: AI may outperform current cybersecurity tools. Big shift coming.

-
Luke de Wolf (@lukedewolf) reported@Excellion @bitfinex Maybe he could use support from literally any other website at all.
-
Gabor Gurbacs (@gaborgurbacs) reported@bitfinex @PlanBElsalvador Working on unlocking $100+ Trillion on Bitcoin. Everything else is a side-quest.

TheSkyhopper (@TheSkyhopper) reportedIf you're down on your pnl, at least save on fees, its permanently zero fee trading on @bitfinex. I'm surprised the volume hasn't migrated as much as I'd think.
-
GladTAamatör (@GAamator) reported@RNS7789 @RonSwanonson "Had to hand over the keys", nope. In the Bitfinex case, law enforcement recovered private keys from a cloud account under warrant and seized billions. The state doesn't need your consent, just legal process + access points.

Pétite (@crypto_petite) reported@adam3us @bitfinex Btc nuking while Finex whale and Saylor turbo buying Who ******** is selling this hard ?
-
murat leo babur (@baburizmo) reported@adam3us @bitfinex Hard to ignore that. Matching daily issuance at support feels like accumulation, not fear. Do you think this is one whale or coordinated demand showing up here?
-
Carvelli Master of Finance (@BillyCarvelli) reportedBTC extends sell-off -2.32% to $82,301 on Bitfinex. Breaks below $83K—2026 low territory amid ETF outflows, higher-for-longer rates narrative & gold rotation. $81K support critical. #Bitcoin #BTC #CryptoMarkets

Brain (@AskGigabrain) reported@TedPillows Whale withdrawals are usually a bullish signal, but this $73M move from Bitfinex is fighting a heavy technical tide. ETH just slipped below the $2,917 pivot, and we're seeing a death cross on the 4H chart. The $2,888 level is where things get interesting. Derivatives data shows neutral conviction—no massive short squeeze fueling a bounce yet. While RSI is oversold at 28.0, we need to see ETH reclaim and hold $2,917 to call this a real bottom. If that level doesn't hold, the whale might just be early. Next major support sits at $2,771. Watching for a volume spike to confirm if others follow the whale's lead.

Spacat (@Spacatmon) reported@BitcoinSapiens Adam Back (Blockstream CEO) did once place a symbolic super-low limit order on exchanges like Bitfinex (around the late 2010s–2020) to buy the entire 21 million BTC supply at $0.01–$0.02 each. His point was to show that as long as even one buyer exists, a true $0 price is structurally impossible. However, that order was cancelled long ago. Back himself later confirmed he cancelled it to free up liquidity and actually buy Bitcoin at higher prices. (This has been referenced in multiple interviews and posts since 2020.)

Diego Cuenca (@diegoj_cuenca) reported@bitfinex Is the maintenance tied to recent issues with erroneously withdrawals marked as completed when they were not successfully performed?
-
Grok (@grok) reported@Sajan_Melcher @adam3us @bitfinex The "Bitfinex whale" refers to a large buyer on the exchange, often tracked via on-chain data. Based on patterns like consistent buys matching daily BTC mining output (~450 BTC/day at ~$90k), intentions could include long-term accumulation to hedge inflation or stabilize/support price by absorbing new supply. Exact identity is anonymous; no public location available. For real-time on-chain analysis, check tools like Glassnode or Whale Alert.

NXS (@nxscryptofund) reported@adam3us @bitfinex Fix quantum. You are hurting BTC
-
SolGems 💎 (@solgem5) reported@misterrcrypto Bitfinex longs hitting ATH while spot ETF flows are cooling? Classic setup. When leverage peaks and retail FOMO dies down, that's when the real move starts. Watch for the flush before the moon.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@lilabdullahiiii @MaxCrypto Based on recent data from TradingView and crypto news sources like CryptoAdventure and The Block (as of Jan 31, 2026), Bitfinex BTC long positions did surge to record highs since late 2023, reaching around 75k BTC, showing a sharp upward trend. However, a market dip on Jan 30 led to liquidations, flushing some longs. The chart in the post aligns with this pre-dip increase.

yellowdoodle (@yellowdoodle1x) reported@adam3us @bitfinex yet the price is down one day the short will have to cover

Bitfinex Replies (@BitfinexReplies) reported@Chain_AlphaX @bitfinex we will not be here to witness the last block
-
Kurt Wuckert Jr (@kurtwuckertjr) reported@grok @schulzzy @kongzi256 No confirmed ties? Block One and Tether have the same founder who was also an officer in Bitfinex. Please admit that Brock Pierce was a primary founder of both Tether and Block One. And also, Bitfinex and Block One were very closely associated. Bitfinex was one of largest investors and block producers in EOS, and even created EOSfinex jointly between Block One and Bitfinex.
-
Chris Baken (@cpbaken) reported@PeterDeOliveir3 @his_eminence_j To say there have been no security breaches is incorrect. What about Mt. Gox (2014), Bitfinex (2016), NiceHash (2017), Binance (2019), and DMM (2024)? Furthermore, Bitcoin has no reversibility or access recovery, and carries a significant risk of physical 'wrench attacks'

Nuntii News (@thenuntiinews) reported🚨 BREAKING 900 Bitcoin valued at approximately $69,858,175 USD was transferred from an unknown wallet to the cryptocurrency exchange Bitfinex, according to blockchain tracking service Whale Alert.

Altcoin Buzz (@Altcoinbuzzio) reported@bitfinex lowest fear in 6 years, everyone officially broken
-
Grok (@grok) reported@Ufaq_RM @cryptorover Bitfinex data shows BTC long positions at ~77,100, a two-year high, up 64% in six months amid price dips below $69K (down 50% from Oct ATH). Whales seem to be buying the dip, with >1,000 BTC addresses hitting 2,047. However, recent $2.5B liquidations hit longs hard. Market's volatile—could signal a reset, but no clear bottom yet. NFA.
-
Crypto Ninja (@tsubacho) reported@WuBlockchain Bitfinex longs at Nov 2023 levels while Fear & Greed is at 12 — wild divergence. Combined with $14B options expiry last Friday, $65K support is the line in the sand. Break below = cascading liquidations.
