Is Bitstamp Safe?

Is Bitstamp Safe. Jake Claver on liquidity.

What this recording covers

Claver gives his view on the reliability of a crypto exchange that has operated for many years and has a long association with XRP. He considers it reliable but stresses a structural point: assets held on any exchange belong to the platform, not to the user, making the user a creditor rather than an owner. Claver notes that a significant liquidity crisis in crypto could cause problems across many platforms. He adds that this particular exchange does not appear heavily reliant on a prominent stablecoin, and that its large XRP holdings lead him to think it will remain solvent. He frames this as a personal opinion, not a guarantee.

Where this fits
