    @jonfortt per Wall Street Journal , an investor who purchases $100 worth on bitcoin on Coinbase would owe $3.49 in transaction expenses, compared to $1.50 and $0.50, respectively, on competing exchanges Kraken and Bitstamp-much more than you site

  • darylonair Daryl (@darylonair) reported

    @goodenoughzz @Bitstamp They make ghost orders. Be careful! And they give a **** about their customers.

  • joaombrito Joao Brito (@joaombrito) reported

    @Bitstamp Are you going to repair this error in your system or are you going to harm (steal) your customers?

  • enver_sariomer enver sarıömeroğlu (@enver_sariomer) reported

    @Bitstamp @coinbase bittorrent; like a girl ... we should raise bittorrent to a young girl ... let's support it ... bittorrent (btt)

  • ervzla Democracia y Libertad. (@ervzla) reported

    @fredostat @AdamsUdeh @Bitstamp The Berlin fork has some minor problems, but more than 80% of the nodes are running the protocol and the rest is being worked out.

  • zwwzxzz (@zwwzxzz) reported

    @Bitstamp Meanwhile, XRPL closing without issue since inception.

  • Elia_Romani_ Elia (@Elia_Romani_) reported

    @BitstampSupport @LindsayFirebird @Bitstamp Never received an email of the update... Do you think is sufficient to write it on the website? Very, very bad..

  • QContrarian QuantContrarian🏚 (@QContrarian) reported

    @theemilyaccount but that has nothing to do with coinbase, ETH had a hard fork called "Berlin" that has technical problems with one of the blocks. BitStamp also suspended ETH trading. the issues aren't with the exchanges but with the blockchain itself

  • Waynegarland215 Wayne Garland (@Waynegarland215) reported

    @Bitstamp XINFIN and Flare can fix those problems.

  • BTCTKVR Bitcoin Takeover (@BTCTKVR) reported

    @HammerToe @biggzSE @Bitstamp How many developers from outside the Ripple company are working on XRP? Can you run a node without asking permission from Ripple? How is Ripple going to use the rest of the 55 billion coins they hold? More secretive contracts? How many coins are held in top 1% wallets?

  • Bianconiglio81 Bianconiglio (@Bianconiglio81) reported

    @ashleymac9505 @Ed_H75 @Bitstamp I’m working on it since yesterday. For sure I will not trade through Bitstamp anymore.

  • BTCTKVR Bitcoin Takeover (@BTCTKVR) reported

    @biggzSE @Bitstamp Dude, XRP lost like 50k blocks and is centralized hot trash. If Ripple stopped controlling the network, it would face even worse consensus issues.

  • Nicjor15793 Jor962💙 (@Nicjor15793) reported

    @Bitstamp I need you to reset my log in I emailed hours ago.... Please respond

  • joshgiersch Josh Giersch (@joshgiersch) reported

    @KenVeksler @NewRiverInvest There are competitors, but either not at the same scale (Bitstamp, Gemini, Kraken); no access to traditional bank rails (Binance); or local-markets only (Coinone, Bitso)

  • guenterdull Günter Dull (@guenterdull) reported

    @BitstampSupport @joaombrito @Bitstamp But you never told us that we have to cancel our stoppLoss orders. The dump to 1,- € was only on Bitstamp and it was because an error during the maintenance. Bitstamp must refund the loss.

  • Elia_Romani_ Elia (@Elia_Romani_) reported

    @BitstampSupport @LindsayFirebird @Bitstamp Never revived an email of the update... Do you really think that an announcement on the website is sufficient? Very bad....

  • SMKnudsen Scott Knudsen (@SMKnudsen) reported
