    Ignas | DeFi (@DefiIgnas) reported

    Ironically, the more 'compliant' the exchange, the more I worry about the problems they'll cause me. Bitstamp bombarded me with extra SoF documents and wallet address verifications. Want to switch to Coinbase but worried it'll be the same or worse. How common are proof-of-wealth / source-of-funds requests on Coinbase these days? Coinbase already closed my account once. Since creating a new one I worry to actually use it. Btw Binance, Bybit, and OKX (before it moved to OKX EU).... not a single issue since 2017. CS is great, no extra documentation requests, just KYC doc updates. But Binance has been shady with their listings, pumps & dumps etc. Not really a fan anymore. Also for fiat in/out, banks probably prefer Coinbase... Is Kraken any better? Their fiat deposit limits are relatively low and they won't raise them for me. Not a great sign. Thoughts?

    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?

    As an exchange with such a deep and rich history around the XRP Ledger, why doesn't @Bitstamp support the XRPL version of @Ripple's RLUSD?

    @Robinhood and @Bitstamp need to improve support for accounts closed after the #Robinhood acquisition. Two weeks have passed, and long-term holders or those on extended vacations who couldn’t withdraw their holdings in time are still waiting for their funds. Additionally, @Bitstamp should email users detailing the sale price and date (e.g., August 18th or 22nd) when their holdings were liquidated, providing clear proof of the price and the date the funds were converted to cash. $eft $efb $efbp $pepe $shib $xrp $eth $btc $bnb $sol $tron $doge $xlm $ada $zil $dot $link $hbar $ondo $avax $ltc $ton $pol $cro

    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.

    CT im in desperate need of your help. @Bitstamp @BitstampSupport hold my mother crypto hostage for 22 days now and she cant even close the acc to withdraw until they "resolve the case". She needs the money urgently and they dont care! Please retweet so they hear us loudly 😤😡

    @vladtenevmajor my issue (and I presume others') I can't take part in the 2% crypto bonus on transfers to my @RobinhoodApp account because they're not offered. Yet, seeing the same tokens available on @Bitstamp leads me to ask, "any plans of merging so we can consolidate assets?"

    @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.

    @HaraldMoubarak @Bitstamp I doubt if they will resolve it faster here, you should write them on their telegram instead … I had same problem with my account last week and it was resolved quickly by their team on telegram

    @WhatSayLew Lewis you are smarter than me, but I have faith you will figure this out lol. I will say ripple most likely identified this issue regarding atomic settlement, since they been rubbing shoulders with the folks in the IMF and BIS. It’s why I think the bitstamp derivatives matters

    @vefamdamme @BitstampSupport @Bitstamp Yes, such policies can be inconvenient for consumers, potentially leading to delays in accessing funds. Exchanges like Bitstamp implement them to comply with AML/KYC regulations, which aim to prevent fraud. Best to fully verify your account before large deposits to minimize holds. If stuck, reach out to their support for resolution.

    @PureElliottWave Amazing ! Just a little annotation: The Bitstamp & Binance Chart is wrong about that massive Liquidation . It never fell that deep . Exchanges had some huge problems on that specific date . We didn’t have a 1Minute Candle closing under 1.80 .

    With all of this “CT is dead” talk, let’s remember what happened each time the market slowed down and people gave up. Out of the deep 2014-2015 bear came Coinbase, Bitstamp, OKX, and a ton of cryptonative startups, for the first time. Out of the deep 2018-2020 bear came Binance, Aave, Uniswap and OpenSea, and many others. Out of the 2022 bear came Bybit, Solana, Jito, Raydium, Pendle, Pudgy Penguins, and many others. Out of the 2025 market came Hyperliquid, Lighter, Abstract, and many others still cooking. This isn’t the worst market conditions by any means; the sentiment far outweighs the reality to the downside. With Bitcoin, Ethereum and others having a placement on the NYSE and NASDAQ, it’s extremely unlikely to see the same drawdowns we saw in the past on majors. Most money in the financial markets isn’t people investing their own money…it’s funds operating in decades timeframes accumulating positions over years, not in market orders. It is true that the easy times to rotate are over for now. But the real builders have just begun. And the real capital rotation has just begun.

    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.

    @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

    @NoContextWeb3 @GracyBitget @kanyewest A normal thing in crypto yes. But serious exchanges just dont do that. It gives pretty bad reputation on crypto as whole. Why coinbase, bitstamp, bitfinex and many other OG exchanges dont do this ****?

    @Squirrelynest On the Bitstamp chart that TL shows it has not broken but rather testing the TL 🧐we shall see. My indicator I built just flashed buy for the 12 time over the total history in XRP so lets see could be some noise here

  • CryptelligenceX
    Patric H. | CryptelligenceX (@CryptelligenceX) reported

    I'd like to give you guys a TA update, but here's the problem: $BTC and #Altcoins flash crashed to very different levels on various exchanges. E.g., Bitcoin tapped $100K on Kraken, $107K on Coinbase, $109K on Bitstamp. SUI tapped $0.16 on Kraken, $2 on Coinbase. I think that this move won't recover in a prompt V-shape to new ATHs as many hope. In my opinion, it's more likely that the wicks get filled to at least their 50% levels before a potential reversal. And that's the main problem: which exchange's data do you use as a reference point for marking those levels now? In my opinion, this will take weeks to stabilize. Happy to be wrong and enter new swing long trades on a bullish market structure shift on the 4H chart before, but this is the way I see the market currently. There's no rush to jump into positions already. You can wait for more data (candles) and a clear trend shift.
