Just read this newbies' posts. 4 out of all 5 posts this user ever made bash the other exchanges and defend MtGox. This newbie even blames the Bitcoin Foundation and Bitcoin.



I tried to deposit 3btc to my bitstamp account and it still has not been credited. The transaction is on the blockchain with 8 confirmations. Probably similar issue as with MtGox. Might not be only a MtGox issue in the air.

And they call BTC a smooth currency? Still big steps to take before that is 100% true Sad



Probably GOX creating an error with Bitstamp so that they don`t have to go out of business.



Now when BTC-E and Bitstamp has similar problems, the bug that MtGox highlighted seems to have credit. Might Gox who cause similar issue with at their competitors exchanges Smiley

So now the ball is back at the bitcoin faundation. Bitcoin still in beta, might sadly not be so smooth yet.



I agree on that MtGox customer service is bad and that they can handle communication better. But hey, who should we trade FIAT -> BTC with now when also Bitstamp has BTC withdrawal problems? We all have to be a "fool" and sometimes trade our BTC -> Fiat at an exchange. And right now they are all crappy in my point of view. Bitstamp / BTC-E, their customer support is also not to responsive, without phone numbers etc. I am no coder, so can not tell if their implementation of teh BTC protocoll is better.

I might be a n00b here, but now even your god Andreas Antonopoulos blames a weakness in the protocol Wink
