Title: Bitstamp should be wary of the 0.01 Trades
Post by: crazy_rabbit on November 04, 2013, 04:12:28 PM
I've been noticing a large number of "0.01" sells on Bitstamp, which reminds me of the Gox lag days when people gummed up the system and gave the impression of collapse by jamming the system with tiny sell orders. It would be nice to see/know if Bitstamp is being proactive about this in advance.

Well that sounds like good advice... seeing as they seem to be down right now they probably should have heeded it.  Unless it's just down for me. :)

edit: nm, working again

Nonsense. The only people dumb enough to fall for this trick are those complaining about it.
