Revainrating 4 out of 5

It is considered one of the oldest cryptocurrency exchanges around.

This is by far one of the most trusted and secure cryptocurrency exchanges. The fees they charge are reasonable and the choice of crypto is fairly modest. The fact that the exchange accepts Fiat currency is a major draw for many people who want to trade cryptocurrency. They take the security of its exchange very seriously. Most of the exchange funds are now stored in cool storage and its customers wallets are protected by 2-factor authentication. But if you do not have any prior experience in…

Pros
  • Great exchange with advanced trading platform.
  • Bank wire transfers and bank deposits supported.
  • Wide range of altcoin is available on the platform.

  • Good thing is this is a regulated exchange.
  • Support credit, debit cards transactions also major fiat currencies.
Cons
  • Complicated kyc process.
  • Long waiting period for account verification.

Bitstamp is a cryptocurrency trading platform created in 2011 by Nejc Kodrič and Damijan Merlak. The company was originally established in Slovenia, before relocating to the United Kingdom in 2016 to complete its trip to Luxembourg. However, the company kept its London office, and opened an additional one in New York. The co-founders of the exchange intended to offer an alternative to Mt Gox for European customers. This bet was successful, since the exchange has established itself as a…

Oldschool

Some criticism- As with any large stock exchange, there are many positive and negative user reviews. Bitstamp clients often criticize for problems both in the selection and the insertion of finances, for slow payment processing, and especially for the too long verification process, which may take more than a month. We've never had problems with deposits or withdrawals, but it's true that we never tried to insert a fiat currency. The really big criticism is on the heads of customer support sta

Pros
  • Simple trading platform
  • Good reputation and long stories
  • Relatively low fees compared to other exchanges
  • You can buy cryptocurrencies with fiat currency
  • FAQ
  • support on mobile
  • Secure
Cons
  • Unsuccessful mobile app
  • Complex for beginners
  • Small cryptocurrency offer
  • bad support reputation

Review of Bitstamp exchange

Bitstamp exchange allows users to request their immediate offers at the best bid or price, as well as orders for filtering location and other options. Bitstamp is the world's first to use the best security practices, including MultiSig technology, for its wallet. Bitstamp has a good mobile app, but this app has a lower rating on the Apple Store. Users complain that the update in this app is slow and does not provide all the features that are available on the site. The purpose of this…

Pros
  • Convinient platform that supports fiat money - you can deposit USD (or other fiat money), convert it to crypto and it can be done in the opposite way - convert crypto money to fiat money and withdraw it to your credit card/bank account.
  • Bitstamp API - easy to use and implement in your website or mobile app.
  • Low trade fees - comparing to most of the crypto exchanges.
Cons
  • Frozen withdrawal of funds - two weeks and no answer from support - that happened many times (in this case - the service has disabled the withdrawal of funds due to the withdrawal of funds to suspicious addresses).
  • Withdrawals sometimes are getting canceled after few minutes (it's not problem in my credit card/bank account).
  • Bitstamps is not offering a referral program in their platform.
  • Small amount of crypto assets to trade - only BTC, BCH, ETH, XRP, LTC.

First premium exchange provide trading at low fiat fees

Bitstamp and cryptocurrency go way back to 2011, long before Bitcoin was a household name. Back them, the crypto landscape looked much different than it does today. Namecoin, the very first altcoin, was introduced this year, and the practically newborn Bitcoin was just starting to be traded in informal ways. Bitstamp was, therefore, a prescient effort on the part of its creators, and its enduring place in the cryptosphere is a testament to the hard work that has gone into achieving this…

Pros
  • Oldest and trusted way to buy crypto
  • Easy account creation
  • Huge traders and huge volume
Cons
  • Not worldwide, All userbase from us,
  • You cannot complete your Bitstamp deposit with Paypal. The standard bank and credit/debit card Bistamp deposit methods are the only available options.

Bitstamp The popular exchange

Bitstamp is one of the most popular cryptocurrency exchanges in the industry, it is difficult to endorse them as the go-to-platform for buying and selling coins. On the one hand, the platform is super easy to use, and they do allow you to deposit funds with a debit or credit card. However, only certain countries have the option of using a payment card to deposit funds, and their respective fees are really expensive. It is also disappointing that Bitstamp only lists a total of 5…
