Should we be worried about bitstamp?

I am, I have a deposit that was sent to them on the 8th and still hasn't arrived yet. I've had a support ticket open for almost 3 days now, and they have not answered that. I've posted my issue on reddit and heard nothing.

I don't know what to make of it but I am getting somewhat concerned.

Taking on more users than they can properly serve. There ought to be an option to accelerate tickets. Replace by fee customer service.

I hope that is the case, someone else I know had there money go through pretty quick, so I wasn't overly worried. But, no answers from support or on reddit has me concerned.

Does anyone know how big the btx blockchain is at the moment?

About 400 MB.

Thanks, I will have no problem with downloading that then.

Just saw this website

http://pieifo.com/pages/endefault.html

it shows upcoming forks and also some airdrops. About the Airdrop section though, when you click on it you'll see that it has bitcore, it it is listed as a "scam". IMO, this is total bullshit, why has bitcore got such a bad name? coinmarketcap being dicks and now this. Really shits me.

maybe devs can email them to try to explain why this isn't a scam.

definitely some games going on at the moment, hopefully it leads to higher btc prices in the end  Grin

Bitstamp BTC276 wall is now down to BTC198 .... price is being manipulated!

Explain?

I've noticed that recently bitstamp has a lot of walls when bitfinex has none. Bitstamp's are usually between 50 and 100 coins and are both on the buy and sell side. There is also plenty of times when there is a large price difference between the 2 exchanges. Something does seem off with bitstamp. Also my deposit with them is taking ages when usually it is very quick.

Look like everything is on hold until traders realize that the futures market has no effect on price.  Maybe some time later when leveraging is increased from 2.2X to 100X there could be incentive to manipulate the markets.  For now I think the accumulation will continue.  25K, 50K soon..

There's no incentive for "manipulators" to manipulate the price down. They can profit taking a long position equally, it doesn't mater for them whether it goes up or down. Them buying a lot of coins so they could dump them makes no sense, they could buy a lot of coins while having a leveraged long position at the same time, which sounds even better, no?

Exactly!

People are looking at this the wrong way, profit is on the upside not the down. When you short the market the most that the market can down is 100%, But, when you go long the most it can go up is an infinite percent.

Pretty obvious where the manipulation would be. hmm, should I short and maybe get 100% profit or should I go long for >1000000%? Easy decision.

Disclaimer, this excludes any leverage of course.

Does anyone remember Masterluc's prediction? I Believe he said that btc would be 15k at the end of the year, then dip to 7k, then go up to 40k then on to 100k in 2019.

don't think this guy has been wrong yet.

I could be wrong about the 7k, but, I though it was in the chart I saw.

I'm sitting here looking at the massive differences in prices between all the exchanges and trying to work out what it means. Do the differences show which exchanges are easier to move fiat funds into and therefore the increasing demand is hitting those exchanges first?

Or does it just mean that the market is nuts and being maniumpulated around?

Any ideas for these massive spreads between exchanges?
2012  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: November 29, 2017, 12:31:29 PM
looking at bitstamp, the difference between buys and sells is massive, especially after 11,000.
2013  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: November 29, 2017, 06:36:47 AM
10k really is an amazing thing. At the start of this year I never thought it would be worth this much a the end of the year. Bitstamp is showing (on bitcoinwidom) only 900 coins till 20k, liquidity is absolutely drying up, there'll be no coins left to buy soon.
2014  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: November 21, 2017, 11:13:42 AM
You could put up about 100 different alt coin charts and it would match the rise in btc, not saying that tether isn't an issue, but, those charts don't really show anything. Correlation is often meaningless.
2015  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin's price is back!! on: November 12, 2017, 12:53:29 PM
Yep, you are right.
I believe it will rise again until tomorrow, and then it will start to rise more.

It is quite difficult for the price to rise a lot. There are too many unconfirmed transactions. That will dent people's confidence.

Fiat transfers to exchanges don't care about confirmations. Fiat will buy btc.

Glad I slept through what was hopefully the worst part...

In any case, I dumped my ETH - this guy is really sad - Vitalik saying congrats to Ver & co...
https://twitter.com/VitalikButerin/status/929558722170429440

He really is a douche
2017  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: November 12, 2017, 10:00:36 AM
That BTC25k can still do a lot of damage, but could also be him covering hist shorts on finix to minimize 3rd party exposure i.e. if finex stop trades etc...

There's talk that the 25k was confirmed before the dump. Maybe he has already dumped them, or some of them.

Looks like institutional investors are going to get cheap BTC. Go figure.
 

This is what Ver and Co don't understand. They are going to lose their power, like the amateurs they are. The pros are going to clean up, like usual.

Difficulty adjustment in under 16 hours, good luck to them.

The part that you don't understand that Ver is a very very wealthy man. At this point it's not about money but rather power. He was being squeezed out of BTC so he's been trying to clamp on to power any way he can, and this is his last all or nothing battle. Worst case he still walks away multi millionaire

that's exactly what I understand. and because of this last ditch effort he will lose his a power at a much faster rate. Serves the fucker right.

They can pump BCH to sky and above, just keep buying while miners don't sell. But they cannot dump more BTC than they own

Yep, what they are doing is basically kicking themselves out of BTC. Once they have none left the can't manipulate anymore. What's more they can't pump BCH as effectively either, they better hope that there are other users out there that want BCH. Because to keep the price at these levels is going to require a lot of new money each day.

BTC will be stronger after this, because there will be no more Roger Ver and Co around trying to fuck things up. This is probably the end of BTC being played with by amateurs/early adopters like Ver, the professionals will now move in, for better or worse.
