All a bunch of FUD orchestrated by whales trying to shake out weak hands on Stamp and BTC-e, before an end of week rally.

Good luck to all you weak sellers if you fall for this crap.

Early signs of other exchanges ignoring and becoming disconnected from stamp as they know that there is irrationality (read: inside trading) going on.

I've been seeing a lot of posts recently claiming that Stamp is going the way of Gox, etc. What is the basis for this claim? Just because the Stamp price is $10 lower than other major exchanges, or is there actually some real evidence to suggest that there's corruption or other problems going on at Stamp?

u dont see the problem

its insider trading, for example stamp selling their own coins because they know something bad with their exchange will happen soon.

I'll try to answer here: we used to include Bitstamp orderbook into our own orderbook for liquidity purpose. In other words, we were arbitraging between our own platform and Bitstamp. However as we continue to grow we decided to slowly (and I insist on "slowly" Smiley withdraw this arbitraging program to let people do the arbitraging themselves. This is why you started to see a difference between the price on our platform and Bitstamp, as arbitraging for third parties is interesting only after a certain threshold (around 1% like now is not a very good opportunities).

I wouldn't count on that answer...
Too much fishy stuff going around with bitstamp lately...

It's FUD. Pantera / Fortress has $10MM invested in Bitstamp. Pantera has a hedge fund with almost $100MM invested in BTC between 45 individuals. They aren't going to allow Bitstamp to ruin that. CALM DOWN.

When there is EVIDENCE it will be already too late.  With Gox we didn't have clear evidence either...

Again, I don't think it will happen personally, but the signs are there...

Trust the unknown exchange instead of the one backed by a well known venture firm with more than $100MM invested in BTC and Bitstamp. Good choice.  Roll Eyes

Yeah Bitfinex might be a better choice than BTC-E, a very legit operation.
But for the time being I think anything is better than stamp.

The bitstamp/bitfinex spread is getting huge. Very strange.
