Bitstamp, a nice solid exchange located in europe was having a solid steady growth. recently this happened:  apparently some bitcoiners are switching to this exchange. i can understand why. very low fees and good legal standing in europe. what is still missing is some more market depth. |

The depth is deceptive. Despite the apparent lack of depth, earlier today Bitstamp sold over $50k of Bitcoins. I think of today as a test for Bitstamp and they came through with flying colors. |

Bitstamp is a great exchange, it deserves some more volume. Hopefully this will attract more liquidity to Bitstamp.

I think BitStamp is a good choice for traders in Europe. For those in the US, I think BitFloor is a better option. The reason is how easy or difficult it is to send fiat currency to these exchanges. BitStamp offer SEPA for both deposits and withdrawals. BitFloor offers ING Direct P2P and PopMoney for deposits and ACH transfers for withdrawals.

You can't win if you don't play. But you can't play if you lose all your chips. First I found bitcoin (BTC). Then I found something better, Monero (XMR). See GetMonero.org

Agreed, BitStamp is mainly a European market, even though it's listed in dollars. It has reasonably good connections with the USD market though, via mtgox coupon codes for example. |

I have heard that bitcoin SEPA deposits and withdrawals take something like 1-2 days. That is awesome and requires mention.

Still, your proposing a very unsatisfactory trajectory for BitFloor if you you want to fly like a chicken. |

I'm going to give bitfloor a shot, despite the terrible bid wall (or rather, 5% grade). We'll see what happens. I do like that they allow free direct withdrawals to ACH. That's worth dealing with poor volume right there, rather than having to wait 20+ days to see my money after selling it through Gox.
