Company information

The facts on file

Description
Bitstamp is a cryptocurrency spot exchange founded in 2011 with offices in Luxembourg, the UK, Slovenia, Singapore and the US, serving both retail and institutional clients across 100+ countries. It offers spot trading via web, mobile and API plus staking, institutional lending and white-label crypto-as-a-service, focused on established assets rather than a broad altcoin roster. Robinhood Markets completed its approximately $200 million acquisition of Bitstamp on June 2, 2025, so buyers should factor in ongoing platform-integration risk.
