    @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.

    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?

    ,,,,,, Trading conversations tied to #HQIExchange and #Bitstamp continue spreading warnings about blocked transfers and unresolved cashout delays. Quiet support can be requested directly…

    @VMuscatfm @tradingview @Bitstamp Thanks for flagging this. I checked live data: Bitstamp's BTC/USD is currently around 112,247 USD (as of 11:30 GMT, Oct 11, 2025), close to your chart's 112,109. No widespread lag reports today, but platform delays can occur. Suggest verifying on TradingView's status page or contacting their support directly for your setup. Always cross-reference multiple exchanges to avoid risks.

    @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.

    @Bitstamp Think a lot of people are closing accounts and pulling money out for good. U may see a crash bigger than ever if this 💩 isn’t fixed immediately. Trust is 1000% gone with the market manipulation and big players not speaking up. Great some clowns are making money on the demise of the stock market and major insider knowledge..but it’s close to being a beyond repairable problem.

    JUST IN: MASSIVE buy wall on Bitstamp? Completely VANISHED. Poof. Gone. Whale pulling support? Fake wall all along? Or are we about to see real blood?

    @Bitstamp This company has been holding my money for 3 months now and whenever I call and send an email. Is the same **** over and over again. I am struggling to pay bills as this is my life saving. Send me my money you thief’s!!!

    @BitstampSupport @Bitstamp Stop acting like you'll move the needle, you won't. I've already alerted you on all support in existence and you just reply to make people feel like you're following up with tickets. You don't. My case is BIT-2306603.

    @MandelDuck Congrats! And if you fixed your poor support that would also be much appreciated. I can't log-on w/ bitstamp. Cleared cache, reinstalled and no difference. Account issue detected, contact support and there I just get llm answers. Luckily I don't keep much in custodial wallets

    @Bitstamp it’s not just me they have said lots of people having same issue, so when is it going to be fixed or is someone going to update with what’s going on?

    @Bitstamp I’ve been going back and forth with your customer service for a week and they won’t answer a simple question for me. Can I please connect with someone who can answer my question! This is an incredibly poor user experience so far

  • NFTSocialX
    NFT Social Exchange (NSX) (@NFTSocialX) reported

    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 🔥

  • PrecisionTrade3
    TARA (@PrecisionTrade3) reported

    @CasiTrades @jawadmahsud2 It depends which exchange you use for charting XRP bc binance doesnt have that first wave to $3.30. So binance just finished 5 full waves.. but bitstamp and others have that first wave so it makes these 5 waves all apart of just Wave 3. So how do we know which one to use?.. we need more development in this correction to know if its targeting the 382 support or deeper levels

    @maxleebtc @MEXC_Official Similair **** happened with me, bitstamp held 100k for 2 months and thank god they were regulated by MICA and after long terrible time they returned the money. Dont trust anyone with your money, MEXC or Bitstamp or any cex. Dex should be the standard !

    @CryptoGui @wsouza86 @SonicLabs not dead, but down 93% from ATH with team departures isn't great recent bitstamp listing and x402 integration show they're still building, generated 10k revenue last month bleeding hard but still has a pulse

    @BitstampSupport Anyone still using @Bitstamp? Their support is awful — our account has been stuck disabled for over a months with no resolution or clear updates. Can anyone advise what actually works here? #Bitstamp #CryptoSupport

    @afig2012 big sale 4 days ago, 2.57m tokens dumped for $1.85m at $0.72 got labeled a garbage project and binance washer around same time. wallet recovery issues from early jan didn't help either recent bitstamp listing couldn't save it from the sentiment damage

    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?

  • NatalieHarr21
    Natalie Harris (@NatalieHarr21) reported

    @Bitstamp Do not recommend Bitstamp to people. They are not a good company. I opened an account with them 123 days ago and I passed all of their verification checks and sent them money via bank wire. My funds were never made available to me and with no explanation my account with them was closed. I am still waiting for my funds to be returned 70 days later. I have sent multiple emails and called their customer support countless times. You are pushed off from support to complaints department via email and you are only very rarely given a vague generic message about how they are working on the issue. Every time you call you are told that you can’t speak to the complaints department and that they can only send a message to that department for you. If you plead then they will escalate the message. The escalation does nothing to the complaints department and does not speed anything up. They are unable to escalate or transfer me to any management stating that is not how there system is set up. I have filed complaints with financial regulatory bodies in my state and Bitstamp does not reply to them either. Robinhood will not help stating that it is a Bitstamp issue. There are many complaints from customers about Bitstamp and losing money because Bitstamp will not return it. They are a scam and you should not promote something that allows people to lose their money.

    @BitstampSupport You have blocked trading on my account for no reason, demanded additional ID documentation which I have provided, and now your support team is FAILING to respond despite my request to escalate. What kind of operation has Bitstamp become?

  • PauleyRob76961
    Rob Pauley (@PauleyRob76961) reported

    @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.

  • AlewXRP
    Alew (@AlewXRP) reported

    @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

    @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!

  • olad_josh
    Josh (@olad_josh) reported

    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?

    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.
