Stamp volume down

[BitCoinNutJob]

Stamp volume is down and BTC-e is nearly above stamp, finex has gone through the roof. 



In other news, about time stamp added Litecoin isnt it?

Stamp fucked up with the hack. OKcoin fucked up with the greed. Now finex and btcchina are the players.

Stamp has offered only very basic trading tools, for way too long.

...and then they started the 20 Questions 'interrogate your customer' bullshit everytime you wanted to transfer 50p over to your Bitstamp account.


I remember clearly the point where I decided that I had had enough of them and wasn't going to use them anymore. With them actually being the only Bitcoin exhange that I didn't think was hooky as fuck, I also remember speculating what effect Bitstamp's KYC procedures might have on the Bitcoin price.

It must be good news for other new and existing exchanges who want to pick up customers.  Stamp seems to be about 50% down at a rough guess.  Good news for the traders aswell, as the post above state they have been getting lazy.

Good news for coinbase indeed and good term for their launch (after bitstamp problems). But i belive that bitstamp will get most of their customers back, if not the old ones then new ones will come and take their place.

Same feeling. BitStamp's offering is not so interesting anymore.

New ones are fine, sharing the current ones right now is healthy for the eco system.  Who knows.... we could be sideways for another year or something crazy and bitstamp offers the worse trading fees also.

What is the name of that new exchange by coinbase?

Its called coinbase i think lol.  Are you talking about the winklevoss twins new one? gemini is the name of that.

[thresher]

I never new bitfinex was up there.  I always thought it was lower on the pole.

The real biggest exchanges are huobi and bitfinex. Btcchina is 95% fake, probably by the operators.

[Brewins]

stamp is annoying with all verification things and they neglect the security of the site.

Why would anyone want to use it?

I thought the true biggest china exchanges went as follows:

okcoin
btcchina
huobi

Well, I may be wrong.

I definitely dont believe the volume on Okcoin, or BTCChina. Only huobi's volume matches the orderbook.

OKCoin orderbook is hilarious. Either the traders there are just odd, or... I mean, its the fakest looking thing.

i am not sure if putting your stuff into amazon cloud is actually really security. i personally would not keep any sensitive data on someone else's hardware .

Any update on the whole bitstamp 'hack' fiasco, and if they've started to pay back customers?

Just seems like the entire cryptorush debacle all over again...no way will people trust them so their business goes down and thus they never pay back customers.

[paulifa123]

Stamp have nothing to payback to customers!, they took the hit from the theft from their own reserves. Customer fiat and BTC were unaffected and withdrawals continue as normal and are dealt with promptly.

As for all the whinging about KYC. I provided the normal proofs of ID and residency when asked on setting up my account and have never had any grief from them since on either deposit or withdrawal of fiat or BTC.

I suppose shady, tax dodging druggies like matthepratt & Co. just like staying under the radar and bitch about any KYC at all

Huobi and Bitfinex run things.

[BitCoinNutJob]

Huobi and Bitfinex run things.

what about as regard litecoin, BTC-e runs things outside of china? why doesnt finex?

[franckuestein]

Let's see the time that's going to need BTCe to beat Bitstamp.
It seems that since the famous Bitstamp problems no-one wants to take risks and lose money
