    @GoingParabolic I was recently converted when I tried to open a Binance account and was restricted due to being in the USA. Yesterday got a notice that Bitstamp wants proof of income. DEX is the future. Pick one DEX and go all in. I like Aster due to dark pools and CZ support

    @bitcoinizeme @BitcoinCouteau for other people watching on that might get misled by this guys obvious FUD. This is a Bitstamp issue. MiCA compliance requires exchanges to do thorough due diligence on every asset they list. 1....

    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.

    @JohannKerbrat 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

    Bitstamp - I reported missing crypto in my portfolio now i have found a button on the bitstamp dashboard which, when I press it, returns the missing crypto. The button was unknown to me previously. My problem is solved, the missing crypto has reappeared.

    @Bitstamp @BitstampSupport Ticket #BIT-2261402 Still waiting! It’s ridiculous! You have no legit basis to withhold the funds of your customers like that. I’ve now read dozens of the same messages from other customers, proving this is how you operate. UNACCEPTABLE for a simple refund issue!

    @Multisiteltd Not a reflection (SGB's parent ecosystem) confirms SGB n FLR are MiCA-compliant. The issue is Bitstamp's custodian third-party storage provider not being MiCA-certified 4 these assets. Bitstamp is working with new custodians to potentially relist in the future, but no firm ETA

    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 🔥

    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?

  • Crypto_Pirate13
    CryptoPirate13 (@Crypto_Pirate13) reported

    @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.

    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.

    @Bitstamp @BitstampSupport You still can’t read the god damn block chain? You stole my $HBAR and are playing games. It’s been 3 weeks. Anyone who’s thinking about using this exchange, DON’T. They cannot process a simple deposit. It is actually embarrassing.

    🚨 #Bitstamp warning: Regulated exchange? Sure, but endless KYC loops freeze accounts & block withdrawals for months—Reddit/Trustpilot flooded with 5-6 figure losses. Don’t deposit more. DM for pro tracing & refund help now. #CryptoScam

    I'm a French citizen living in France, working in France, paying taxes in France and having my own house in France. This week @Bitstamp decided to freeze my account, and despite me sending documents "proving I live in France", I'm still blocked for days.

    Brian (@KoZmoh) reported

    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.
