Bitstamp Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • jurijbajzelj Jurij (Yuri) Bajželj (@jurijbajzelj) reported

    @rodpetrovic Something is wrong here. The on-chain median fee for latest block is $1.23 and tipping isn't implemented on-chain but on Lightning which has fees reduced by a factor of 100. Also Bitstamp does not support withdrawal to Lightning address afaik.

  • CujoRaid Raid.crypto (@CujoRaid) reported

    @Bitstamp @0xPolygon @CurveFinance Bitstamp, it really shouldn't take that much time to just make SGB available to us. No one is asking you to set up trading, just provide the wallet so we have access to our Songbird please. Get with the script.

  • Digitaltechcry1 Victorious$hade (@Digitaltechcry1) reported

    @Bitstamp @hedera $hbar is Gen 4 and exchanges are first ******* Gen 3 so why the actual **** should we care? Already have my bags packed so by all means, shill away.

  • satsatwork Sats@popeye (@satsatwork) reported

    @TXMCtrades @glassnode Even that is a big volume given Coinbase business ethics & awful customer support - smaller exchanges will overtake cb- like Bitstamp has good customer support & are growing organically 👍CB not a professional exchange till date 😳not sure how SEC approved their ipo 🙄😳

  • Samchuen37 Sam (@Samchuen37) reported

    @Bitstamp Is either you do what u do,or we do what we do!Defi is here.Your competitor are not other cex,is defi!! If u keep doing this **** and ignore n give stupid excuses for not giving out sgb,u will lost lots of customer.!!

  • BarHBARian Coinman the HBARbarian (@BarHBARian) reported

    @Bitstamp Buy something that solves a problem and #HODL (P.S. $HBAR)

  • chryzlerx Chris (@chryzlerx) reported

    @xrperun @Bitstamp Are you really so overstrained with songbird $SGB ? There’re exchanges that didn’t announce SGB support instead they did it, implemented it and told their customers that they are done and that their coins are in their accounts. You should try that attitude and learn from the best

  • teddyJGB ً (@teddyJGB) reported

    @Bitstamp it seems that this is not really assured? one tweet and a small notice on the website .. crickets since.

  • IvyFTW33 Graphed Hash (@IvyFTW33) reported

    @Bitstamp I could really give a **** less about coinbase at this point. We're listed on enough of the big ones now.

  • BusuttilIan Ian Busuttil (@BusuttilIan) reported

    @Bitstamp @0xPolygon @CurveFinance Just keeps getting better 👏... not to be a broken record any updates of ETA when we should receive the Songbird airdrop?

  • adam3us Adam Back (@adam3us) reported

    @J0E007 I used to do this bitstamp <-> btc-e for #bitcoin arbitrage in 2013-2015. wires took a week. exchange to exchange is risky, as when your wire gets lost by banks you rely on exchange support to trace it. so mostly i wired my bank and then wired the other exchange, took 2 weeks.

  • stoikerty stoikerty (@stoikerty) reported

    @cmuratori @coinbase Your interest in bitcoin is growing! /proudsmilewithtear ...try Kraken and Bitstamp. It's almost guaranteed that every exchange will have their issues. What matters is your coins being safe in your own cold-storage. Backing up to an online location is risky, don't rely on it.

  • fifty2kph 52kph (@fifty2kph) reported

    @AltcoinDailyio Staking ETH on @Bitstamp because it's locked up until ETH2 so I can't sell it when price goes down and I freak out. Plus it's earning interest.

  • Brbishop12 Brandon bishop (@Brbishop12) reported

    @Bitstamp please resolve my account issue i want to withdraw my funds

  • Devon1080 Devon (@Devon1080) reported

    I also have had no issues with wiring money from Kraken to my Scotia account. The daily limits on how much I can withdraw from Kraken is $100,000 USD and I think around $50,000 to $100,000 USD on Bitstamp, so you shouldn't have an issue with withdraw limits.

  • kudret024 Kudretthunder (@kudret024) reported

    @whale_alert Oh ****. Bitstamp is a whale exchange. That's not too good.

  • erjo06026 yesh (@erjo06026) reported

    @Bitstamp @hedera @Ledger when will you provide support?

  • MrLu888 Mr Lu (@MrLu888) reported

    @Bitstamp When will bitstamp enable leveraged trading? Shorting impossible on spot, among other things.

  • HOTRODCONCRETE HOTROD (@HOTRODCONCRETE) reported

    @Bitstamp @0xPolygon @CurveFinance $CRV getting listed on many exchanges today. and has now broken out . lets see if it can hold up on the daily close.

  • Devon1080 Devon (@Devon1080) reported

    They eventually released the money to my account, so it wasn't that big of an issue for me, but from speaking to the rep it seems Bitstamp might be on a list that the bank monitors, not because Bitstamp is in anyway bad, but due to transactions they receive from Bitstamp.

  • LoneDissident Dan Armand (@LoneDissident) reported

    @Bitstamp WTF is taking so long??!

  • ChadMMD MMD- Crypto Trader (@ChadMMD) reported

    @Bitstamp don't use bitstamp, it's old and clunky, the support teams are slow and need way too much information every now and then... use Kraken or even Coinbase instead

  • NiroCrypto Niro 💹 (@NiroCrypto) reported

    @Bitstamp Customer’s support succ ***, pardon my french, never seen so slow people working on a big ex!

  • Neliothecat Georges Servais (@Neliothecat) reported

    @Bitstamp @mark_ravey Got the same. Funny that back in 2017 when I started using them they did not require any information. I'd expect them to check first before accepting funds. This is borderline theft as they block funds they happily accepted when you want them back. Creeps

  • YehiaZa97879182 Yehia Zakaria (@YehiaZa97879182) reported

    @Bitstamp Everyone guesses from the hitbtc platform that they sent to customer service many times to no avail that they are scammers. I will not be silent for life on these thieves

  • theboxer1977 TheBoxer (@theboxer1977) reported

    @BitstampSupport @OsumaBlessing Yes I got it too. Kind of akward because within a year I had to send information abt my income yet again while the info abt the other exchanges I sent is still pending for a year. I love bitstamp (everyday user since 2014) but some things slowed down a bit..

  • Ridwan91415537 Ridwan (@Ridwan91415537) reported

    @Jpalms1123 @BinanceUS Same problem I am having at the moment as well, it would happen to everyone if they don’t stop using binance the app is starting to rip people of money just like Bitstamp

  • all_JFKs_rtaken JFK (@all_JFKs_rtaken) reported

    @Bitstamp That is easy, don't buy $BTC or $ETH. But also don't buy **** coins. Buy coins with use case and their use in the future. Eth WAS great but it fell behind the future train. Nowadays people buy btc and eth only due to old sentiment and popularity.

  • Nerd6Nerd Net Nerd (@Nerd6Nerd) reported

    @RevolutApp @CryptoUKAssoc Revolut uses Bitstamp as it's crypto exchange partner. Bitstamp has confirmed their support and distribution of the #SGB #SongbirdNetwork token, so time for Revolut to let customers know when they will receive their allocated SGB.

  • adam3us Adam Back (@adam3us) reported

    @J0E007 so you are 100% reliant on exchange support. and it's not clear exchange even want you to do that, because they want wires to/from an account identified to you. but i have done direct bitstamp -> btc-e wires, and they did work. felt palpably likely they would just get stuck/lost.
