  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.

  Curious. Anyone else have any issues with Verifying an institution account with Bitstamp? I've been going back and forth with support for a month now and they are very slow to respond. As of now, I have cancelled my application as I'm afraid this would be a constant issue.

  @LusPedroCe53042 @Bitstamp @RobinhoodApp I doubt if they will respond to you here, you should write them on their telegram if you want a fast response… I had same problem with my account last week and it was resolved faster by their telegram team

  Based on available info, altugozturk's 36 ETH was sent to Bitstamp via BSC (wrong network) 4.5 years ago, remaining stuck in their address. RobinhoodApp isn't involved in this case. Bitstamp's policy may not support recovery for such errors, leading to delays. Suggest escalating via support or legal channels for resolution.

  Looking forward to the exchange announcement for @RaylsLabs this week. My guess is either @Bitstamp or @cryptocom. Bitstamp would signal regulatory alignment and institutional trust. Crypto(.)com would open the door to massive retail access. $RLS momentum primed 🔥

  @rektspecter @AshCrypto That Bitstamp ETH chart shows thin volume and wild wicks, typical of low liquidity periods where market makers aren't providing tight spreads. No widespread glitches reported today—ETH is trading around $2,054 USD now, up 0.9% in 24h but down 19% weekly. Might just be a quiet trading window.

  @Erik70988630 @WecanGroupSwiss @Bitstamp Contact the bitstamp support to help you with doing forensic on ur account, otherwise it will be terminated if it gets flagged again

  @Bitstamp has a track record of delaying access to users' funds, possibly for their own benefit. They should have reached out to accounts lacking withdrawal details to provide a crypto wallet or update card/bank information. Likely, they’re holding funds to profit from market rallies or earn interest. $eft $efb $efbp $pepe $shib $xrp $eth $btc $bnb $sol $tron $doge $xlm $ada $zil $dot $link $hbar $ondo $avax $ltc $ton $pol $cro

  Grok (@grok) reported 30 minutes ago

  This TradingView chart of BTC/USD on Bitstamp shows a descending trendline connecting lower highs from July peaks (~136,000) to recent levels, signaling bearish pressure and potential continuation of the downtrend. The horizontal support near 116,000 is being tested at 115,441. A break below could target 100,000; above the trendline may indicate reversal. Monitor volume for confirmation.

  @Bitstamp And at all, I don't want to write in DM. I want others to know about it, what an anti-customer approach you have.

  CryptoPirate13 (@Crypto_Pirate13) reported 34 minutes ago

  @Matta_VA @MonicaLongSF Hiss bridge currency arguments are flawed: "No legal claim to underlying fiat or central bank settlement finality": Wrong because XRP via ODL uses atomic swaps with pre-funded fiat liquidity pools on both ends (e.g., USD ramps via regulated partners like Bitstamp), achieving true settlement finality in 3-5 seconds without needing direct central bank claims—it's not "creating a new gap," it's closing the pre-funding one by 50-70% in real corridors like EUR-PHP. "Shifting liquidity problems to token backers": Flawed since XRPL's decentralized validators (150+ global) and AMM pools enable on-chain liquidity that's permissionless and scalable to 65k TPS, reducing reliance on centralized pools; pilots show it cuts trapped capital vs. SWIFT's nostro/vostro accounts, not just relocates it. "Tokens work for small retail, not $500M institutional": Off-base because XRP's handled $1.3T quarterly ODL volume (mostly wholesale) with ISO 20022 hooks for compliance, and upgrades like sidechains integrate stablecoins (e.g., RLUSD) for stability in big trades—proving it's not "just another chip" but a vetted rail for 300+ institutions. His fax-vs-internet analogy falls flat too: XRP isn't mimicking SWIFT; it's leapfrogging it with neutral, interoperable tech. Classic incumbent shade. Scared man. Very scared.

  @Bitstamp i have been following up with the support team since last one month and they are simply refusing to transfer the funds in indirect words. I will be sending you DM too just to explore this channel to reach the quicker resolution.

  @crypt_shprd Why on earth would you use Bitstamp when you have access to exchanges where real volume is taking place? Serious question.

  @ZachRector7 Hey Zach, love what you do to educate! Question, is it true Bitstamp and Ripple are still working together to build the derivatives platform? If so, why is Bitstamp giving people a hard time to take self custody of their XRP ? Not a good look for either of them.

  @tomtovision @firefish_io Same wallet. Sending from exchange is not good idea, when USDC comes back, you have to verify traveler rule for sender, which can be depending on exchange impossible or hard. I had a long fight with Bitstamp.

  @Bitstamp My funds have been frozen by @Bitstamp since Dec 18 even after completing all required verification. No resolution. No timeline. This is causing real financial hardship. Can anyone help bring visibility to this? #Bitstamp #Crypto

  @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.

  study bitcoins (@studybitcoins) reported 59 minutes ago

  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.
