Inspection Reason

East Asia and North America (mainly the United States) are the world‘s two largest cryptocurrency trading markets, with trading volume accounting for about half of the global crypto markets. Compared with many exchanges in East Asia, US exchanges are under stricter supervision. And the United States has the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange, Coinbase. To help investors understand the U.S. cryptocurrency exchange more comprehensively, the inspection team will go to the United States to visit.

Inspection Process

The investigators went to New York, USA to visit the cryptocurrency exchange Bitstamp. Its address was 27 Union Square West suite 205 New York, NY.

According to the above address, the investigators came to the destination, an office building at 27 Union Square, New York, the United States. The investigators entered the building and found that there was no sign in the lobby. Then they consulted the building security guard to learn that the office of the cryptocurrency exchange Bitstamp was on the second floor.

The investigators came to the 2nd floor, and the name of the cryptocurrency exchange Bitstamp could be clearly seen on the sign, which showed that the exchange’s office was at room 205. The investigators successfully found room 205 and confirmed that it was the office of the exchange. Because of the metal door, investigators couldn't see the specific situation inside, from the outside, but this office didn't look large. 

Inspection Conclusion

The investigators visited the cryptocurrency exchange Bitstamp in New York, the United States. They found its business premises by its public business address. However, according to the visit result, the office scale of the exchange should be small. Investors are advised to make a choice after comprehensive consideration.
