This is a mirror of the original BitMEX trollbox archive that used to be online here. BitMEX disabled their archive after the DDOS attack so I have decided to make my mirror publicly available.
Well now, a few days after I made this mirror available to the public, the original archive from BitMEX is online again. But since it is still limited (neutered to the last few hundred messages) I will keep my FULL mirror alive.

[2016-08-15 07:28:31] rapidtrades : the tokens are not a debt instrument...says right there in the TOS [2016-08-15 07:29:02] rapidtrades : even if they bought them all, it doesn't absolve them of the responsibility to pay us back [2016-08-15 07:29:04] Boontjie : You are getting a promise to get the money back at $1 per token, or shares [2016-08-15 07:29:17] rapidtrades : no you're not [2016-08-15 07:29:47] Boontjie : Then what are you getting?

So 40% * 0.4 is a 16% of bankrupcy [2016-08-15 07:35:21] Boontjie : Or to be exact 36.06% * 0.4121 [2016-08-15 07:35:32] rapidtrades : i think this post by unoffical bitfinex account todd suggests we're not gonna get the token announcement soon https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/4xojmg/here_is_the_response_to_the_multiple_questions_i/ [2016-08-15 07:36:55] rapidtrades : Boontjie: hmm good point...although the only way u are going to get the face value of these things is if they stay in business [2016-08-15 07:37:39] Boontjie : Yes, but they only need 36.06% to stay in business [2016-08-15 07:38:12] rapidtrades : not necessarily...legal costs will skyrocket [2016-08-15 07:38:28] Boontjie : Yes and the token recovery will drop [2016-08-15 07:39:11] rapidtrades : it's just amazing to me that they're not taking a buyout offer [2016-08-15 07:39:28] rapidtrades : they had to have gotten one...they were n1 before the hack and profitable [2016-08-15 07:39:58] rapidtrades : maybe they have some to hide idk [2016-08-15 07:40:08] Boontjie : If there is a buyout offer and they didnt take it I would leave the exchange forever [2016-08-15 07:40:37] Boontjie : They will not be comitted to making customers whole.
