    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?

    Ok ok ok... Even more lore to this. Everpure P Was deployed directly by RHJ RHJ is Robinhood Assets (Jersey) Limited. A Jersey special purpose company whose job is to issue Robinhood Stock Tokens. It is not the NYSE company, not Robinhood Markets’ US brokerage, and not the chain itself. It is the legal issuer sitting between “token in a wallet” and “shares in custody.” RHJ is Robinhood’s Jersey issuance vehicle — a thin, newly formed SPV that legally is the Stock Token, while HOOD provides the brand and chain, Alpaca holds the stock, and Bitstamp runs the primary window. They deployed P and Robinhood posted it directly in their docs 0x1cdad396db64bda184d5182a97dd9b3c62100b7d

    $Robinhood is pushing crypto to UK users through Bitstamp.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 What did actually happen? 1. Acquisition: Robinhood closed a $200M deal to buy Bitstamp in June 2025. Bitstamp is the world's longest-running crypto exchange, founded in 2011. 2. UK Rollout: Robinhood UK customers can now explore crypto assets directly in the Robinhood app — prices, charts, watchlists. 3. How it works: All actual trading, transfers, and staking still happen on `Bitstamp UK Limited`, not inside the Robinhood UK app. Robinhood UK itself doesn't provide crypto services. 4. The catch right now: You can't use funds from your Robinhood account to buy crypto on Bitstamp yet. The accounts are separate. And Robinhood UK app still doesn't support direct crypto trading. Why Bitstamp? Bitstamp gives Robinhood instant global infrastructure: - 50+ licenses including UK/EU/US - Institutional business and deep liquidity - Spot exchange, staking, lending, crypto-as-a-service - Branded now as "Bitstamp by Robinhood" Robinhood's goal: expand outside the US and get into institutional crypto. CEO Vlad Tenev said "Our work is just beginning". What's next? Robinhood is integrating Bitstamp into Robinhood Legend with Smart Exchange Routing. They also plan to migrate Bitstamp by Robinhood assets to Robinhood directly, with no transfer fees. From Feb 1, 2027 Bitstamp by Robinhood will be view/sell/withdraw only. So for UK users today, you can track crypto in the Robinhood app, but to actually trade you still go through Bitstamp UK. #Robinhood

    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.

    4/ Treasury: $3.47B, and 100% of it is XLM. SDF holds 15.7B XLM as of 1 July. Down from 17.3B in December. That's a token drawdown of 8.8% in six months, roughly 255M XLM a month leaving the mandate. In dollar terms it looks flat, because XLM went from ~$0.20 to ~$0.22. Price recovery masked a real 1.53B token release. No stablecoin buffer. No BTC or ETH. No diversified reserve. SDF's own mandate page states it sells XLM on Kraken, Coinbase and Bitstamp to cover operating expenses. Runway is roughly five years at this pace. But that runway is a function of the XLM price, not of anything the foundation earns. Grade: B-

    base but with a hood on. everyone reviewed robinhood chain as a product launch. i think it's a trap for base airdrop money, set up months in advance. what went live on july 1: → stock tokens in 120+ countries inside robinhood wallet, trading 24/7, usable as defi collateral → uniswap live from day one as the main public dex → morpho powering robinhood earn with ~7% on USDG → USDG issued natively on the chain → perps built straight into the wallet via lighter → arcus (by dYdX team), stock trading at zero fees with a token promised to the community → gas free for the first 90 days now look at base's side of the board. they said out loud they're exploring a network token. in february they walked off the OP stack onto their own codebase and stopped paying optimism rent. and now they're about to ship B20, their own token standard baked straight into the node software. erc20 compatible, but with freeze and transfer controls built in, aimed at stablecoins, RWAs and tokenized equities. nobody rebuilds token plumbing at the protocol level for fun. robinhood chain mainnet july 1. B20 mainnet july 8. one week apart, both laying rails for the same thing. a base token would be the biggest retail wealth event of the cycle. a new class of rich onchain wallets, old ones waking up, normies crawling back the second "base printed" hits their group chats. that liquidity doesn't retire, it looks for the next trade. and post-airdrop money always walks the same ladder: dump some, rotate majors, farm, memes, then something that feels more adult. robinhood just shipped the adult option. NVDA and TSLA as collateral, 24/7, inside an app normies already have on their phones. coinbase wakes retail up. robinhood is standing right there with something to sell them. maybe the whole robinhood arc has nothing to do with base at all. maybe they just executed a year-old roadmap and the window opened around them. but wall street holds COIN and HOOD as one bet on finance moving onchain, and both companies started laying rails for the same moment at the same time. the bitstamp deal fits the same picture: licenses first, then own chain, then tokenized stocks, then defi rails. nobody collects that stack to add two more coins to an app. why would any of this actually hurt base? because eth vs sol is a religion war. evm vs evm is nothing. trenchers bridge in minutes, builders redeploy in a day. there is no switching cost, only reasons. just look at bankr and virtuals. two flagship base projects, both added robinhood chain support within days. no drama, just a new chain in the dropdown. and base picked a bad year to slow down. creator coins meta fizzled, ai agents barely got any support while they were the hottest meta in crypto. baseapp never found its pmf and feels like it exists for optics, not for onboarding anyone. the ecosystem spotlight kept landing on stuff like o1 exchange. loyalty in evm land is a bridge transaction. pure shizo, zero evidence, but the symmetry is funny: coinbase trades as COIN and incubates BASE token. robinhood trades as HOOD. ROBIN completes the pair. do with that what you want. to be fair to the other side: robinhood planned this chain for over a year, a base token still has no date and might not even happen this cycle. and robinhood chain tvl is tiny for now. positioning only pays if liquidity actually shows up. base will be fine. coinbase isn't going anywhere and neither is the money behind it. and i'm saying all this with love. base is the main reason i even stayed onchain these past couple of years. but for the first time base has an evm competitor with a cleaner story for normie capital, and its answer so far is "we're exploring". B20 goes live soon. let's see what base does with it.

    Every exchange collapse gets called "the bottom is in." But data says only the last one in the chain ever is, and knowing the difference is the whole edge. A crypto bear isn't one single event. It's a chain of blow-ups that fires over months, and the bottom only prints on the final one, when the last leveraged player dies and there's nothing left to force-sell. The collapse everyone remembers is almost always the first domino & not the last. 2014–15: The Gox cycle → Nov 2013: ATH $1,163 → Feb 7 2014: Mt. Gox halts withdrawals → Feb 28 2014: Mt. Gox files bankruptcy, 850k BTC gone. Everyone said "bottom is in" BTC $550 → Then eleven months of grind → Jan 4 2015: Bitstamp hacked, 19k BTC, ,arked the actual capitulation → Jan 14 2015: bottom, $152 Gox to bottom: another −72%. the famous collapse was the opener. Bitstamp closed it. 2018: The ICO cycle → Dec 2017: ATH $19,783 → Jan 26 2018: Coincheck hacked, $530M the opener → Feb 2018: BitGrail collapses, $170M BTC $8k → then a full year stuck bleeding around $6k → Nov 15 2018: the BCH hash war, ABC vs SV, breaks the $6k floor. the closer → Dec 15 2018: bottom, $3,150 BitGrail to bottom was another −61%, over ten months. 2022: The leverage cycle → Nov 2021: ATH $69,000 → May 9 2022: Terra/LUNA implodes, $45B gone. the opener → June 12: Celsius freezes withdrawals → June 27: 3AC ordered into liquidation → July 5: Voyager bankrupt. July 13: Celsius bankrupt → Nov 8–11: FTX collapses. the closer → Nov 21 2022: bottom, $15,480 FTX to bottom was just −26%, in 10 days. This is the one case where the famous name was the last domino, which is exactly why it marked the low. So the tell was never the size of the name. It's where it sits in the chain. Terra was bigger than FTX and it marked the top of the crash, not the bottom. Now 2026 → Oct 2025: ATH $126,210 → Oct 10–11 2025: $19B liquidation cascade off the top, the largest in history. this is the opener → Nov 2025: down to $80k now $64k, off by 49% → July 1 2026: AscendEX closes → July 23: BitMEX announces closure → July 26: BitMart winds down Here's what "bottom is in" wrong here. AscendEX, BitMEX and BitMart aren't blow-ups. They're wind downs. Still solvent, withdrawals open, nobody force selling a single coin. They're closing because the mid-tier exchange model stopped making money, not because they detonated. A business shutting on bad math is not a domino. For until now we've had the opener, the Oct 10 Binance cascade but we haven't had the closer yet. No major leveraged entity has detonated into a forced selling panic the way Gox, BitGrail and FTX did. The signal you're actually waiting for isn't an exchange announcing a shutdown. It's an exchange or a fund detonating. The last domino is waiting to happen soon.
