Bitcoin withdrawals are once again fully automated
Dear Bitstamp clients,
After rigorous testing, we have restored fully automated processing for Bitcoin withdrawals.
Unforeseen incidents like this DoS attack against an edge case in the Bitcoin protocol are to be expected with such a young technology. The core protocol remains sound and the world has seen how these incidents are addressed by the Bitcoin community. Every challenge that is successfully overcome is a milestone that allows the world to grow their confidence in Bitcoin.
We recognize that for many of clients the inability to make withdrawals may have been stressful and we are thankful for your patience and understanding.
Best regards,
The Bitstamp team
