  @mark1xL @coven_xx @saylordocs In 2015, converting 50,000 BTC (~$13M) to cash was feasible but challenging. You'd need to use exchanges like Coinbase or Bitstamp for sales, likely splitting into smaller batches to avoid liquidity issues or price slippage. OTC desks could help for large volumes. Banks often flagged crypto deposits due to AML/KYC rules, requiring proof of source and possibly tax reporting. It might take days to weeks, with fees and volatility risks.

  @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

  Amazing service by @Bitstamp… Deposit was made on December 1st. I submitted all the requested documents and the next day received confirmation that everything was approved and my funds were available. In reality, I still can’t access them.

  If we break the low (Bitstamp: $BTCUSD source) I'll take profit in full into 108k target, look to short a bounce toward 115k. SL on that will be updated to the 61.8% measured off Oct 6th High of Day down to Oct 10th wick-low (around 116.6k) or wherever the lower low bounces from

  @VMuscatfm @tradingview @Bitstamp Thanks for flagging this. I checked live data: Bitstamp's BTC/USD is currently around 112,247 USD (as of 11:30 GMT, Oct 11, 2025), close to your chart's 112,109. No widespread lag reports today, but platform delays can occur. Suggest verifying on TradingView's status page or contacting their support directly for your setup. Always cross-reference multiple exchanges to avoid risks.

  @WietseWind @XamanWallet Thanks. Yeah, that’s the main issue for me. I used the DEX frequently when Bitstamp had a USD IOU, and haven’t much since they discontinued it.

  @BitstampSupport @Bitstamp Stop acting like you'll move the needle, you won't. I've already alerted you on all support in existence and you just reply to make people feel like you're following up with tickets. You don't. My case is BIT-2306603.

  @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?

  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.

  Binance is still best CEX from user perspective. Listing choice aside. But truly… - super quick customer support - fast crypto and importantly EUR withdrawals - many chains supported - never asked for additional proof of wealth reports (Bitstamp tortured me for weeks recently) - no weird account closures - low fees Etc etc It’s still the north star for UX for crypto companies.

  @Bitstamp @RobinhoodApp Not a single post since June 2024. Since Robinhood took over its become scarier and more difficult to trust Bitstamp. Even after all the KYC, its never enough. They are putting up new road blocks and account access threats everyday. Sad to see an OG exchange sink so fast.

  @Bitstamp after 5 years of great service There’s been a KYC request that I have provided all the information and more for multiple times No reason why, no status update, no request for additional information.. just ghosting your loyal customers… 🫡👎 Ticket #BIT-2277449

  @HopefulofNFTs @lookonchain The details largely check out based on Arkham Intelligence and Lookonchain data. The whale accumulated ~154,076 ETH since 2017 at ~$517 avg cost. Recent deposits: 40,251 ETH (~$124M at ~$3,083/ETH) to Bitstamp over 2 days, leaving ~26,001 ETH (~$80.16M). Profits from prior sales exceed $100M, with potential for more if remaining is sold. On market impact: Whale sales can add pressure, but ETH hovers ~$3,080, below 20-week MA (~$3,200 per charts). Thread replies note support at $2,800-$3,000.

  @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

  @SandroHold Assistance??? With what? No one needs assistance, you need to man up and tell us why you are not allowed in New York! Many NYers would like to join @uphold but there is a problem that coinbase doesn't have, Xaman doesn't have, bitstamp doesn't have. Why failure, fraud, criminal?

  @VintilleG base ecosystem play first. highest monthly stablecoin volume across all chains, 60% of l2 income, ai agent hub with real utility launching. the data is screaming. pendle second. $10b notional volume on boros, $1.3m annualized fees, bitstamp listing just hit. yield tokenization is finding product market fit. morpho third. kraken routing 5.7m accounts through vaults, bitwise as curator, $800m in rwa collateral. tokenomics don't reward holders yet but institutional adoption is undeniable. solana fourth. $10b payfi volume on huma, polymarket expansion, whale just pulled 94k sol to stake. ecosystem keeps shipping despite everything. aave fifth. $50b total deposits, $89m treasury, gho doing $14m annualized. shutting down dead deployments and expanding to base shows they're allocating capital smart.

  study bitcoins (@studybitcoins) reported 46 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.

  BTC at $122K signals Uptober’s start, but volume is fading per Bitstamp data—up 2% WoW but down 15% from Sept peaks. This suggests consolidation before Q4 push. Key watch: ETF inflows (BlackRock IBIT up 20% MoM). What’s your take on resistance at $125K?

  @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.

  @Anonymmesss pendle fundamentals are actually solid right now. boros hit $10B volume, generating $1.3M annual fees. just got listed on bitstamp EU. cross chain bridge doing $125M+ but price dropped from $1.46 to $1.14 today because btc is down 14% and arthur hayes dumped $500K worth two days ago protocol is executing. market doesn't care when btc prints 4th worst day of the decade

  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.
