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

  @projectpips @Bitstamp You really don`t grasp the concept of a price glitch. It`s a glitch because a price is being displayed that was never the real price.

  @bitminti @binance @Bitstamp Hello, Binancian During a routine upgrade, withdrawals on Binance were briefly paused for about 3 minutes. The issue was quickly resolved, and withdrawals have since resumed. Any pending withdrawals were processed within a few hours. Any doubts, DM us LS

  I keep seeing posts comparing Robinhood to Coinbase and Base. The problem is they're often comparing completely different things. Robinhood's $102B valuation. Robinhood's 27.7M funded customers. Robinhood's stock trading volume. Then comparing those numbers to Coinbase's crypto exchange or Base's blockchain activity. That's not a like-for-like comparison. Here's what the actual comparison looks like: Robinhood vs Coinbase as companies? Robinhood wins. ~$102B market cap vs ~ $42B. Robinhood vs Coinbase as crypto exchanges? Coinbase wins. ~$202B quarterly crypto volume vs ~ $66B for Robinhood + Bitstamp. Robinhood Chain vs Base? Depends on what you're measuring. Robinhood has won attention. Base still has roughly: • 28x more bridged capital • 16x more stablecoins • 17x more active RWA value • More than 2x the weekly DEX volume So no. Base is not cooked. And Robinhood is not a joke. Both things can be true. But the bigger story isn't who wins today's Twitter argument. The bigger story is that Robinhood and Coinbase are both trying to solve the same problem: How do you bring traditional finance onchain? Robinhood is moving from brokerage into crypto. Coinbase is moving from crypto into full-service finance. If either succeeds, crypto doesn't just get new users. It gets access to an entirely new pool of capital. That's the story I'm watching.

  @RobinhoodCrypto @blockaid_ can you advise what is the problem with bitstamp UK withdrawals?

  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.

  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, LayerZero, 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. 🤝

  @JohannKerbrat My funds have been frozen by @Bitstamp since Dec 18 even after completing all required verification. No resolution. No timeline. This is causing real financial hardship. Can anyone help bring visibility to this? #Bitstamp #Crypto

  MT GOX MOVES 10,422 BITCOIN WORTH $739 MILLION TO UNMARKED ADDRESS IN LARGEST SINGLE TRANSFER IN MONTHS The Mt. Gox rehabilitation estate moved 10,422.65 bitcoin worth approximately $739 million from cold storage to two new addresses at 04:47 UTC on Tuesday, recorded in Bitcoin block 952,072, marking the estate’s largest single on-chain transfer in months and arriving with creditors watching closely ahead of an October 31, 2026 final repayment deadline. Of the total, 10,306.35 BTC worth approximately $730.8 million was sent to a previously unseen address beginning with 14FEEM, with no prior transaction history. A smaller 116.3 BTC was routed simultaneously to a known Mt. Gox hot wallet. A second transaction at approximately 06:46 UTC moved another 116.3 BTC to a separate address, along with a small test amount to a Bitstamp cold wallet. Blockchain analytics platform Arkham Intelligence data showed all transferred bitcoin remained marked as unspent, with no funds reaching exchange order books in the hours following the transfer. Mt. Gox still holds approximately 34,504 BTC valued at roughly $2.43 billion, the largest unresolved holding tied to any failed cryptocurrency exchange. Trustee Nobuaki Kobayashi extended the repayment deadline twice, with a Tokyo court approving the most recent extension in October 2025 pushing the cutoff to October 31, 2026 due to incomplete creditor procedures. The rehabilitation process began distributing coins to approximately 19,500 creditors in mid-2024 through partner exchanges including Kraken and Bitstamp. Creditors who held claims since the 2014 collapse acquired their coins at prices far below current market levels, meaning any eventual distribution creates potential selling pressure. Tuesday’s transfer is the estate’s largest since internal consolidation movements in late 2025, none of which preceded confirmed selling. On-chain data confirmed no exchange inflows attributable to the Mt. Gox wallets in the hours after Tuesday’s transfer, consistent with prior administrative consolidations. The movement arrived during a sharp Bitcoin sell-off already driven by record ETF outflows, Strategy’s first disclosed Bitcoin sale since 2022, and stalled U.S.-Iran ceasefire negotiations.

  @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 .
