The Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) is a collection of 10,000 profile picture-type Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) living on the Ethereum blockchain.

As we’re gearing up for a summer full of adventures, we’re sending two new listings your way. All our US customers can now buy and trade ApeCoin (APE) and Fantom (FTM) on Bitstamp.

Fantom is a smart contract platform that uses a directed acyclic graph (DAG) rather than a blockchain to support a network aimed at maximizing speed and scalability.

At Bitstamp, we’re always looking for ways to enhance the experience of our traders. Improving liquidity and narrowing spreads is something we work hard on. For this reason, we’re updating the tick sizes for some pairs.

We’re delighted to announce that we have registered as a Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) in Italy.

Due to scheduled infrastructure upgrades, all our services and features will be temporarily unavailable on Wednesday, July 27th, for approximately 1 hour.

Due to scheduled maintenance of our support system some of our support services will be temporarily unavailable on Thursday, July 14th, beginning at 2.30 PM UTC (4.30 PM CET).

Bitstamp is cancelling the monthly inactivity fee of €10 after listening to the crypto community.
