  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.

  @Bitstamp I had to choose the public channel to shame the support process followed/adopted by @Bitstamp to cater the customer. where customer is kept in complete darkness and is not responded properly / clearly making them suspect malicious intentions towards not returning the funds.

  @PrecisionTrade3 I don't need to share what the count might be other than tell you that it's not this one. you're using Bitstamp which isn't the full data for one...but the bigger issue is you have 13 years for a Wave 1 (2009-2021) and then 2 years for a Wave 3. That just isn't a thing.

  @stef_mulder I know 7 people who have blocked accounts at Bitstamp and 6 have already asked the CSSF for help, now the CSSF is handling it, people no longer have to deal with it, now the office in Luxembourg is handling it.

  @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?"

  @Bitstamp You're going exactly against the principles of BITCON. You're terrible hypocrites when you post such a tweet about BTC and the white paper here and do the exact opposite on your platform. You should be ashamed.

  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 🔥

  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.

  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 Absolutely hopeless never put your crypto with bitstamp worst customer service ever . Have held my assets hostage for weeks over address verification that they decided needed renewal. Never put your money with them if ever want to access it ever again .

  @tomtovision @firefish_io Same wallet. Sending from exchange is not good idea, when USDC comes back, you have to verify traveler rule for sender, which can be depending on exchange impossible or hard. I had a long fight with Bitstamp.

  @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.

  @TheBTCTherapist All I'm gonna say is I watched the top unfold live. Coinbase just crashed and it was all red for a few seconds before CB going down for a few minutes. EPIC. I then logged in on Bitstamp to buy the dip. No sleep that night.

  @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

  Is #Bitcoin oversold now? Let’s use a 6-months chart and see what indicators tell us. A 6-month candlestick view of Bitcoin (BTC/USD) on Bitstamp, sourced from #TradingView It shows a clear downward trend over the period, with the price dropping significantly from highs around $120,000 (visible at the left/start of the chart) to the current level of approximately $67,431 USD. Key Observations from the Chart: •  Starting point (about 6 months ago, roughly early September 2025): BTC peaked near $120,000, marking what appears to be a local or extended all-time high (ATH) zone following a strong bullish run. •  Trend pattern: The price formed a prolonged downtrend with a series of lower highs and lower lows. Candles show: •  Early strong red (bearish) candles as it rolled over from the peak. •  Multiple red-dominant bodies with wicks indicating selling pressure and failed recovery attempts. •  Occasional green candles (brief bounces), but they were short-lived and unable to reclaim prior levels. •  The slope is steep initially, then gradually flattening toward the right, suggesting the decline may be slowing or entering a consolidation phase at lower levels. •  Current price: Marked at $67,431 USD, with the chart highlighting a -40,829 USD drop, equating to -37.71% over the past 6 months. •  Support levels: Recent action hovers around the low $60,000s to high $60,000s (based on the dotted line and recent candles), with some wick extensions lower but quick recoveries. •  Overall structure: This reflects a classic bear market correction after a parabolic run-up, with momentum clearly favoring sellers until very recently. Current Context (as of March 7, 2026): Bitcoin is trading around $67,000–$68,000 USD across major sources (e.g., ~$67,400–$67,900 on TradingView, CoinMarketCap, Yahoo Finance, etc.), with minor intraday fluctuations (down ~1% in the last 24 hours in many reports). This aligns closely with your chart’s labeled price. The 6-month loss of ~37–39% (consistent across sources) confirms the bearish phase shown. BTC hit an ATH near $126,000 in October 2025, so the current level represents a substantial pullback of roughly 45–47% from that peak. Summary Analysis: This chart illustrates a major correction in Bitcoin after its 2025 bull run peak. The relentless downward pressure over 6 months wiped out a large portion of gains, driven likely by factors such as profit-taking, macroeconomic pressures (e.g., interest rates, risk-off sentiment), regulatory news, or post-halving cycle dynamics (though the exact catalysts aren’t visible on the chart alone). At present, BTC appears to be stabilizing in the mid-$60,000s after the steep fall, with reduced volatility in recent candles compared to the earlier sharp drops. This could signal the late stages of the correction or the beginning of a base-building phase before any potential reversal — but confirmation would require sustained higher lows, increased volume on up moves, or breaking above key resistance (e.g., $70,000–$80,000 range). If you’re holding or considering entry, this is a classic “buy the dip” setup in historical BTC cycles, but with high risk given the ongoing bearish structure. Always DYOR and consider broader market conditions! What specific aspect (e.g., technical patterns, potential targets, or news drivers.
