    @Bitstamp Hi I sent a DM re a deposit I made which hasn't show up yet despite reaching the number of confirmations needed. Could check your inbox and ticket support please. this is worrying

  • DedaKorenar Děda Kořenář (@DedaKorenar) reported

    @Nick84883905 @Bitstamp Also you can see the price drop was bigger on XRP/EUR than on XRP/USD. USD pair has bigger volume = higher liquidity. So it really seems as lack of liquidity problem on EUR. I simply recommend not to use stoplosses in crypto due to high volatility.

  • Elia_Romani_ Elia (@Elia_Romani_) reported

    @BitstampSupport @LindsayFirebird @Bitstamp Never revived an email of the update... Do you really think that an announcement on the website is sufficient? Very bad....

  • RJAllDayCrypto1 RJAllDayCrypto (@RJAllDayCrypto1) reported

    And ops i forgot by some very od coincidence #Bitstamp was ¨down for maintenance¨ at the same day or maybe did some of books work that left there costumers liquidated sounds like a good day for crypto today 🧐

  • JackFinesse Jack Finesse (@JackFinesse) reported

    @CanteringClark Bitstamp down time fuckery. That worked really well In 2019

  • ervzla Democracia y Libertad. (@ervzla) reported

    @fredostat @AdamsUdeh @Bitstamp The Berlin fork has some minor problems, but more than 80% of the nodes are running the protocol and the rest is being worked out.

    @bummzulu @Bitstamp I really wanna know too... This is too suspicious and honestly.... I blame on them for this.... I made a Complain wtf @Bitstamp

  • Nick84883905 ⚡️Nick⚡️$jup (@Nick84883905) reported

    @DedaKorenar @Bitstamp Yes, we do, but if the price drops 50% after maintenance and then immediately shoots back up again to the old price, it looks more like a technical issue than something that's market driven.

  • MC1977UND Mark (@MC1977UND) reported

    @jonfortt per Wall Street Journal , an investor who purchases $100 worth on bitcoin on Coinbase would owe $3.49 in transaction expenses, compared to $1.50 and $0.50, respectively, on competing exchanges Kraken and Bitstamp-much more than you site

  • joshgiersch Josh Giersch (@joshgiersch) reported

    @KenVeksler @NewRiverInvest There are competitors, but either not at the same scale (Bitstamp, Gemini, Kraken); no access to traditional bank rails (Binance); or local-markets only (Coinone, Bitso)

  • Elia_Romani_ Elia (@Elia_Romani_) reported

    @BitstampSupport @LindsayFirebird @Bitstamp Never received an email of the update... Do you think is sufficient to write it on the website? Very, very bad..

  • DedaKorenar Děda Kořenář (@DedaKorenar) reported

    @Nick84883905 @Bitstamp Stop orders might have triggered another stop orders because they are executed as instant orders. They might have created temporary problem in liquidity and thus leading to drop of price. Also some people trade via bots which might not have been connected after upgrade.

  • SMKnudsen Scott Knudsen (@SMKnudsen) reported

    @stephendpalley So people can go to another exchange if want better customer service? What about Kraken, Bitstamp, Gemini, Binance, etc?

  • joaombrito Joao Brito (@joaombrito) reported

    @Bitstamp Are you going to repair this error in your system or are you going to harm (steal) your customers?

  • bummzulu Bummzulu (@bummzulu) reported

    @DedaKorenar @Bitstamp This is wrong. I know how the order works but this drop was not initiated by the market. It was a Bitstamp issue.

  • TheBitcoinisde1 The Bitcoin is dead 🧲 (@TheBitcoinisde1) reported

    @BigCheds That spike down earlier today didn’t actuallz happen, bitstamp did maintainance work and they ****** up somehow, but that’s the onlz exchange with that
