Bitstamp is a Luxembourg-based stock market, but it has been established in Slovenia since the beginning of 2011, and allows users to trade with several crypto currencies: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Ripple and Bitcoin Cash.
The stock market has been successful because it was an alternative to buying Bitcoin within Europe. While other stock exchanges offered dollar exchange rates, this stock market offered a EUR exchange rate and became the leading stock market for European citizens.
From Slovenia, they moved to Luxembourg in the year 2016 when they were granted permission from the Luxembourg government, which allowed them to fully legalize the business within the European Union.
It is interesting to note that one month ago the world's largest stock market Coinbase said that for the first time they got 100,000 new users in 24 hours, now Bitstamp can boast that.
This information is a good indicator of how many new users discover Bitcoin and start investing in it. The media are constantly writing about Bitcoin, and its price does not stop growing, which certainly serves as the main motivator for more and more people to be interested in this leading crypto currency, and it is natural that the price should continue to grow.
