  Four “features” I want to see Robinhood ( $HOOD ) implement @vladtenev @RobinhoodApp International Markets: Open up Europe, Japan, UK, and Canada to US users. Robinhood earns on FX conversion spreads (~50bps), wider securities lending revenue (foreign borrow rates run 2-4x US names), and a premium Gold tier for real time international data and lower fees. Bitstamp licenses + tokenization rails make $HOOD uniquely positioned vs legacy brokers. Forex Trading: Direct currency pairs (EUR/USD, GBP/JPY etc.) with 24/5 access. Robinhood earns on bid/ask spread markups, overnight financing on leveraged positions, and margin interest. Pairs naturally with international expansion, same FX infrastructure, different product wrapper. High margin and recurring revenue. Again can offer lower fees for gold members. Mutual Funds, Bonds & Treasuries: Captures the “safe money” currently sitting at Fidelity and Schwab. Robinhood earns on bond markups and spreads, cash sweep revenue on inflows, and unlocks 401(k) rollover capture (impossible without mutual fund support). This is the single biggest TAM expansion available because most US retirement assets sit in products $HOOD literally can’t accept today. Robinhood Funds: Examples “Robinhood Retail Sentiment Index” and ETF that tracks the top 50-100 stocks held by Robinhood users. “Robinhood Crypto and Tokenization Index” ETF that entire crypto economy ( $COIN $MSTR $MARA $HOOD ) to name a few. Robinhood would make margin on expense ratios.

  5) Bitstamp price hit $76,003, down $1,370 (-1.77%). An intraday rejection below $77K triggered a "mechanical breakdown": stop-loss activation below $77K, trend-following algorithms switching to short, leveraged long liquidations, and panic amplified by negative news.

  Tolga YILMAZ (@ylmaztlga) reported 15 minutes ago

  @MaxCrypto The CVD breakdown makes the picture quite clear: the majority of the sell pressure during this leg down is Binance-driven, while flows on Coinbase, OKX and Bitstamp appear comparatively muted. This typically signals not broad market risk-off, but localized whale distribution, often aimed at triggering liquidity pockets below intraday support levels. Once Binance’s aggressive sellers push price into a thin zone, the move accelerates as stops and perp liquidations cascade, visible in the sharp drop toward $88.9K. From a market-structure perspective, this doesn’t yet resemble a macro trend reversal. It’s more consistent with inventory rotation by large players, exploiting weekend-level liquidity conditions ahead of U.S. close. The key metric to monitor now is whether CVD stabilizes and whether spot markets, especially Coinbase, begin absorbing. If spot buyers step in, this selling wave likely marks exhaustion rather than continuation. A retest of liquidity around $88.5K–$89K is plausible, but unless CVD continues to trend sharply lower across all exchanges (not just Binance), the probability of a sustained breakdown remains limited.

  @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.

  Robinhood Markets announced its November monthly operational data, with cryptocurrency nominal trading volume dropping to $28.6 billion (down 12% WoW, down 19% YoY), where the App side accounted for $12 billion, a staggering 66% YoY drop; Bitstamp contributed $16.6 billion, down 11% WoW. In addition, the company's cryptocurrency DARTs remained flat compared to last month but have almost halved YoY.

  @Coins_Kid On October 10th xrp crashed from $2.30 on bitstamp all the way down to $1.58. When that happened it bounced in 30 minutes all the way up to $2.63. It then has been in a corrective move for over 2 and 1/2 months. That is not a wave C behavior, that is wave 2 behavior.

  @Scheggia_26 That’s right. Ripple tried to achieve this vision in the early days by partnering with exchanges such as Bitstamp to issue tokenized versions of assets on the XRP Ledger for the retail sector, but later they pivoted to the wholesale sector, targeting institutional players.

  @PureElliottWave Amazing ! Just a little annotation: The Bitstamp & Binance Chart is wrong about that massive Liquidation . It never fell that deep . Exchanges had some huge problems on that specific date . We didn’t have a 1Minute Candle closing under 1.80 .

  Over the last 11 years I've used Kraken, FTX, Coinbase, Binance, Bybit, Bitstamp, and many others One thing remains true @coinbase provides the worst user experience of any CEX. Has the worst support, the highest fees, and the most downtime Truly.. why does anyone use Coinbase?

  @sminston_with I liked this video. One pointer, though. You said that the bottom in 2015 was because of the block size war. That is an error. The blocksize war culminated in Aug 2017. The final dip in Jan 2015 was partly due to a hack at Bitstamp

  @TedPillows That OG whale's been cashing out alright. Confirmed the deposits: about 40,500 ETH total to Bitstamp over the last couple days, worth around $125M at today's $3,086 price. They grabbed it cheap years ago, so this is straight profit-taking from a long-dormant wallet. Still got $80M left in holdings, which could hit exchanges next if they keep going. Short-term, it's bearish noise for ETH. Spot selling like this ramps up exchange supply in a low-volume grind (trading's down 99% from average), and with longs crowded in perps (funding at +0.01%, ratio 2.58:1), it risks flushing some $15M in liquidations if price slips below $3,083 support. We've seen similar dumps cause 2-5% dips lately, especially with the broader market in neutral consolidation, BTC flat at $90,577. But it's not panic territory. ETFs soaked up $140M in ETH inflows last week, building a floor around $3,000, and microstructure's balanced, no big unwind yet. Whale positioning overall neutral, liqs even split. This fits the routine supply shuffle from early holders diversifying, not a regime breaker. Watch $3,083 hold for stability, or a break targets $2,929 quick. Upside needs volume above $46M to push $3,098 resistance. Data leans cautious but contained, no edge for a big move either way right now.

  BTC Is Back on the Edge of Danger: $75.4K Is Being Tested Again — Can It Hold? BTC is now trading around $75,394 on the Bitstamp 4H chart. After falling from the $82.5K area to nearly $74.4K, Bitcoin rebounded toward the $77.2K–$77.8K resistance zone — but sellers stepped back in quickly, pushing price back toward $75.4K. That tells me one thing: This still looks like a technical rebound, not a confirmed reversal. The short-term structure remains bearish: Lower highs. Weak rebound momentum. Selling pressure still active above. Three key zones matter now: $75.2K–$75.4K: Short-term defense. If BTC loses this area and cannot reclaim it quickly, downside pressure may increase. $74.4K–$74.6K: Key support. Holding here could trigger another rebound. Losing it may open the door toward $73.5K–$74K. $76.0K–$76.5K: Bull reclaim zone. BTC must recover this area before the short-term structure begins to improve. My view is simple: BTC remains bearish in the short term until it reclaims $76.5K. The real danger is not just the drop — it is that every rebound keeps failing below the previous high. Do you think BTC reclaims $76.5K first, or retests $74.4K? Follow me for the next key BTC level update. Not financial advice.

  @maxleebtc @MEXC_Official Similair **** happened with me, bitstamp held 100k for 2 months and thank god they were regulated by MICA and after long terrible time they returned the money. Dont trust anyone with your money, MEXC or Bitstamp or any cex. Dex should be the standard !

  Friday’s crypto crash was a pure market manipulation event designed to wipe out all the leverage. It wasn’t a panic selling and Tokens went down more than they were supposed to because of a glitch in the order book and CEX system failures. Bitcoin crashed to $102k on Binance but it held $108k on Bitstamp. Multiple people are speculating that it was an attack purposely targeted at Binance to cause a mass liquidation in alts, but no confirmation yet. Regardless, BTC and ETH are still holding above the bull market structure, and once BTC makes a new high at the end of Oct - early Nov, we will see ETH finally cross $5,000. Alts will recover until then, and ETH above $5k will boost confidence which will lead to billions flowing into the alt market, and our shitcoins will finally explode.

  Bitcoin is showing a dangerous signal! If 80K fails to hold, the short term may see a sharp drop first. From today’s Bitstamp 4H chart, BTC is now hovering around the $80,400–$80,800 range. On the surface, it looks like high-level sideways movement, but the structure on the right side is already very clear: the previous two attempts to break through 82K–82.5K both failed to hold, followed by consecutive pullbacks. This shows one thing: selling pressure above is heavy, and the bulls are starting to lose momentum on the push higher. My current judgment is very direct: in the short term, I’m looking for a pullback first, not chasing longs. Next, focus only on two levels: First, $80,000. This is the most important defense line for the bulls right now. As long as 80K can still hold, Bitcoin still has a chance to continue building strength and attack 81.5K–82K again. Second, $79,500–$78,800. If 80K breaks, the short term will likely continue to wash downward and test this support zone. This is the real area that decides whether the bulls can continue to stay in control. The most dangerous thing right now is not that it has dropped, but that it keeps failing to break higher at a high level. Many people see BTC still above 80K and think it will definitely continue to push toward 85K. But people who truly read the market do not only look at where price is standing. They look at: Is there continuation after the breakout attempt? Is there support on the pullback? Right now, the answer is very clear: selling pressure above 82K is obvious, and 80K is getting closer to being tested again. So my prediction is: short-term bearish, first watch the risk of 80K breaking. If 80K breaks, I will look toward 79.5K, even 78.8K. If 80K holds strongly and BTC reclaims 81.5K with volume, then it will have a chance to challenge 82K–82.5K again. One-sentence summary: now is not the position to blindly chase higher, but to watch whether the 80K defense line can hold. If it holds, there is still a chance to rebound; if it breaks, the short term will likely first wash down to 79.5K–78.8K. What do you think about this move? Do you think Bitcoin is washing and accumulating above 80K, or preparing to drop back to 78K to find support again? Type your direction in the comments: bullish, type 1; bearish, type 2. In my next post, I will directly break down: can 80K be entered near here? Where are the real entry and stop-loss levels? Follow me if you want to see the next key levels. Don’t wait until the market has already moved, only to realize you were one step too late again. （Personal opinion only, not investment advice.）
