  BASED FLOYD VIII (@basedfloyd888) reported 1 minute ago

  Robinhood acquired Bitstamp in June 2025 for $200m (one of the earliest crypto exchanges), this does support the theory of Vlad trying to control the entire crypto stack. On BSC you traded CZ's coins, on CZ's chain, on CZ's DEX that would get listed on CZ's CEX. Vlad knows what he is doing and he's been orchestrating this from a very long time ago, CashCat is his one shot opportunity to bring Robinhood into relevancy, whether he gets enough people using his entire crypto stack depends on the success of CashCat.

  @LiveDamnit @HenkJF @alphafox Close call! Bitstamp was one of the early reliable exchanges (founded 2011, still operating today). BTC-e, on the other hand, was shut down in 2017 amid FBI investigations for money laundering. Glad you got out in time—crypto's wild history is full of these stories. What's your take on BTC's current dip?

  Bitstamp added WLD and JTO this week. Both have been trading on-chain for over two years. A listing tells you a token cleared a compliance desk. It tells you nothing about when the price moved. By the time a regulated venue can offer you something, the on-chain market has already spent years pricing it. Same asset, different spot in the queue. One line buried in the same announcement: unavailable in New York. Access comes with a jurisdiction attached. Worth knowing where you're standing in that line before you decide you're fine with it. Mentioning a token isn't a recommendation. Most launches lose value. High risk. Source: Bitstamp by Robinhood announcement. Save this for the next listing someone calls early.

  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.

  $22 billion contributed by Bitstamp notional volumes. On extended margin. The book surged to a record $21.6 billion, representing an aggressive 127% increase Yoy. Yikes. Cash sweep balances shifted into customer free credit balances to directly fund margin lending growth. 2/

  @Coins_Kid On October 10th xrp crashed from $2.30 on bitstamp all the way down to $1.58. When that happened it bounced in 30 minutes all the way up to $2.63. It then has been in a corrective move for over 2 and 1/2 months. That is not a wave C behavior, that is wave 2 behavior.

  $BTC Roadmap: This is how PA will evolve. Leg down to 61310 (Bitstamp), then up. The Three White Soldiers pattern created a protected low on D. If price does not bounce off 61310, we will see a drastic low. Given how they manipulate price, patterns (protected lows) could be violated or ignored. $BTC PA is driven by an algo and "invisible actors" who can intervene manually. PA has been pre-programmed months ago. Only news is injected on the fly. #BTC #bitcoin #crypto

  @Bitstamp is holding my assets hostage. •Account previously verified •Allowed to deposit & trade •Mid-position they demanded new docs •I complied •Now over a week: no access, no withdrawals, no timeline That looks a lot less like compliance and a lot more like forced market exposure.

  @AlenBarb @TheBTCTherapist Bitstamp was great back in 2013, but now it takes them three months to verify a deposit of Bitcoin I bought from them, which I had simply stored on a Ledger. Ever since they were acquired by Robinhood, their customer support has been abysmal.

  🚨 #Bitstamp #goldbs #walterbennett may not be operating with full legitimacy, as concerns include unreliable services, limited accountability, and possible withdrawal complications affecting investors. If impacted, seek support promptly via DM.

  BTC Is Back on the Edge of Danger: $75.4K Is Being Tested Again — Can It Hold? BTC is now trading around $75,394 on the Bitstamp 4H chart. After falling from the $82.5K area to nearly $74.4K, Bitcoin rebounded toward the $77.2K–$77.8K resistance zone — but sellers stepped back in quickly, pushing price back toward $75.4K. That tells me one thing: This still looks like a technical rebound, not a confirmed reversal. The short-term structure remains bearish: Lower highs. Weak rebound momentum. Selling pressure still active above. Three key zones matter now: $75.2K–$75.4K: Short-term defense. If BTC loses this area and cannot reclaim it quickly, downside pressure may increase. $74.4K–$74.6K: Key support. Holding here could trigger another rebound. Losing it may open the door toward $73.5K–$74K. $76.0K–$76.5K: Bull reclaim zone. BTC must recover this area before the short-term structure begins to improve. My view is simple: BTC remains bearish in the short term until it reclaims $76.5K. The real danger is not just the drop — it is that every rebound keeps failing below the previous high. Do you think BTC reclaims $76.5K first, or retests $74.4K? Follow me for the next key BTC level update. Not financial advice.
