Bitstamp has all of its operations in Slovenia and as far as I can see never needed to incorporate in the UK.

I heard that they wish to move operations to the UK hence maybe re-animating the Ltd.

Of course they are going to dissolve. A lot of places are going to dissolve. IDK! I was saying coinbase is ready to start screwing over ppl anytime soon (they have been doing shady things for awhile now just like GOX was).

Whats a few Bitcoins between friends?

Yep you sweep merchant collected btc from coinbase to your own wallet outside any btc exchange/service

Having your own wallet control is essential in btc

They may have some operations in Slovenia, but their website clearly states their operating as UK company. In "about us section":

The UK Companies House is run by a bunch of Nazis who think that limited company directors are enemies of the state. For this reason they always include threats with their letters and reminders. They threaten directors with multi-thousand pound fines, imprisonment, and striking a company off if some pathetic form is not filled in on time.

It looks like Bitstamp needs a more efficient company secretary who keeps Companies House information filed on time.

but if you read, the notice says they are no longer seeking to strike off bitstamp. so i guess bitstamp now has its papers up to date..
so, no worries for another year
