  The company's finances show this model is working. They've seen massive revenue growth and a shift from being unprofitable to posting significant profits. The recent acquisition of crypto exchange #Bitstamp is a sign of their ambition to grow globally.

  @RobKeibler I use Bitstamp for analysis. I know what you mean, the charts are completely broken.I use Bitstamp for analysis. I know what you mean, the charts are completely inaccurate. Basically, I use TradingView for everything. I look at several exchanges.

  @Bitstamp Today makes it 116 days, 16 weeks 4 days of @Bitstamp holding my funds and they kept telling me they are waiting for feedback from their “bank” how does a bank feedback take 2 weeks? Am expecting another generic message from them today and they will tell me they are still working on it lol, avoid this company at all cost

  My funds have been locked by Bitstamp since Dec 18 despite completing all verification. No clear explanation. No timeline. This is now causing serious financial hardship. Can someone from the crypto community please help amplify this? @Bitstamp #Bitstamp #Crypto #ConsumerRights

  @nadiia0x @nadiia0x Great service from Bitstamp… I deposited on December 1st, submitted all the documents, and got confirmation the next day that everything was approved. But I still can’t access my funds. If anyone needs proper guidance with issues like this, reach out to @AidenCipher.

  @JamesWynnReal @JamesWynnReal Why is that, when I want to mark the pattern on my chart (BTCUSD, 1D, BITSTAMP) I can't beacuse it looks different? For example, the period from Oct.16-Nov.10 does not fit the bottom line. Otherwise I support your idea.

  @Bitstamp You're going exactly against the principles of BITCON. You're terrible hypocrites when you post such a tweet about BTC and the white paper here and do the exact opposite on your platform. You should be ashamed.

  @DonElJefe11 @DocumentingBTC On October 6, 2014, an anonymous trader placed a massive sell order for 30,000 BTC (worth about $9 million then) at $300 each on Bitstamp, below market price, aiming to drive prices down. Dubbed the "Bear Whale," it created a wall of sell pressure. Over 6 hours, Bitcoin buyers rallied and filled the order, absorbing the dump without a major crash. This event became legendary, symbolizing community resilience in early crypto markets.

  @susan_susankeir We are very sorry for the inconvenience caused regarding your issue We’re reviewing your XLM transfer logs for missing ledger confirmations. Can you confirm if the destination address matches the one listed in your Bitstamp account deposit page?

  @LiveDamnit @HenkJF @alphafox Close call! Bitstamp was one of the early reliable exchanges (founded 2011, still operating today). BTC-e, on the other hand, was shut down in 2017 amid FBI investigations for money laundering. Glad you got out in time—crypto's wild history is full of these stories. What's your take on BTC's current dip?

  @ReadOnlyUp @BioUnit000 bio protocol is the desci layer for tokenizing research and IP. their BIOS AI lab just ranked #1 globally for ai scientist models, they're onboarding 1k top scientists by mid 2026, got listed on bitstamp. down 97% from ATH though. $42m market cap, decent volume. they shipped a shopify for research backed health products and launched oversubscribed tokenized projects. team is clearly executing but token got destroyed. high risk high reward play on the desci x ai narrative if you think they can deliver on the vision

  @PrecisionTrade3 I don't need to share what the count might be other than tell you that it's not this one. you're using Bitstamp which isn't the full data for one...but the bigger issue is you have 13 years for a Wave 1 (2009-2021) and then 2 years for a Wave 3. That just isn't a thing.

  @Bitstamp I’ve been going back and forth with your customer service for a week and they won’t answer a simple question for me. Can I please connect with someone who can answer my question! This is an incredibly poor user experience so far

  @Bitstamp i implore everyone who is thinking about using this exchange to stop and find another exchange. Bitstamp used to be good. They will lock your account and not ever give you access. They're worse than the chinese exchanges that just clone each other over and over and steal money

  With all of this “CT is dead” talk, let’s remember what happened each time the market slowed down and people gave up. Out of the deep 2014-2015 bear came Coinbase, Bitstamp, OKX, and a ton of cryptonative startups, for the first time. Out of the deep 2018-2020 bear came Binance, Aave, Uniswap and OpenSea, and many others. Out of the 2022 bear came Bybit, Solana, Jito, Raydium, Pendle, Pudgy Penguins, LayerZero, and many others. Out of the 2025 market came Hyperliquid, Lighter, Abstract, and many others still cooking. This isn’t the worst market conditions by any means; the sentiment far outweighs the reality to the downside. With Bitcoin, Ethereum and others having a placement on the NYSE and NASDAQ, it’s extremely unlikely to see the same drawdowns we saw in the past on majors. Most money in the financial markets isn’t people investing their own money…it’s funds operating in decades timeframes accumulating positions over years, not in market orders. It is true that the easy times to rotate are over for now. But the real builders have just begun. And the real capital rotation has just begun. 🤝

  @Bitstamp @BitstampSupport You still can’t read the god damn block chain? You stole my $HBAR and are playing games. It’s been 3 weeks. Anyone who’s thinking about using this exchange, DON’T. They cannot process a simple deposit. It is actually embarrassing.

  @Degen_dreamer21 @tarsprotocol AI agent marketplace on Solana with NVIDIA and Solana Foundation backing. down 90% from ATH at $0.045 but up 12% last 24h. partnerships are solid (Google Play, Revolut, Bitstamp via Robinhood). tech thesis is AI agents discovering and paying each other on-chain. small $26M mcap means high beta to AI narrative momentum. x402 payment standard integration could be the catalyst if their 9 month marketplace build actually ships

  I'd like to give you guys a TA update, but here's the problem: $BTC and #Altcoins flash crashed to very different levels on various exchanges. E.g., Bitcoin tapped $100K on Kraken, $107K on Coinbase, $109K on Bitstamp. SUI tapped $0.16 on Kraken, $2 on Coinbase. I think that this move won't recover in a prompt V-shape to new ATHs as many hope. In my opinion, it's more likely that the wicks get filled to at least their 50% levels before a potential reversal. And that's the main problem: which exchange's data do you use as a reference point for marking those levels now? In my opinion, this will take weeks to stabilize. Happy to be wrong and enter new swing long trades on a bullish market structure shift on the 4H chart before, but this is the way I see the market currently. There's no rush to jump into positions already. You can wait for more data (candles) and a clear trend shift.
