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.

You have access to more than 50 million trollbox posts. This is more than 7 gigabyte of data hosted on a $5 server so please be patient or consider a donation

[2016-09-21 17:49:37] CaptainDean : 100 would be horrible for miners
[2016-09-21 17:49:49] Susperia : Why not 100? Even why not 50? Network can die, no one need it. You can trade "futures" and numbers on exchange. No one really using it anyway.
[2016-09-21 17:49:51] CaptainDean : in fact miming would be plain stupid at large scale
[2016-09-21 17:50:32] Boontjie : Well difficulty will drop a lot
[2016-09-21 17:51:00] Boontjie : So 100 is theoretically possible. You just a lot less secure network

[2016-09-22 16:47:08] QuantFocus : BitMEX_Greg: don't you guys list historical funding rates somewhere on the site? i'm an idiot and can't seem to find them right now
[2016-09-22 16:47:25] BitMEX_Greg : Here you go: https://www.bitmex.com/app/fundingHistory
[2016-09-22 16:47:29] QuantFocus : thanks
[2016-09-22 16:47:33] BitMEX_Greg : Under the "Contracts" tab at the top
[2016-09-22 16:47:43] QuantFocus : shit, first link
[2016-09-22 16:47:51] BitMEX_Greg : haha np
[2016-09-22 16:47:53] QuantFocus : i was looking under the specific contract

[2016-09-22 18:53:12] rapidtrades : anyone else got their trades closed on btce? weird shit
[2016-09-22 19:22:31] rapidtrades : well...got my explanation....they say prices hit 1,000 today looool
[2016-09-22 19:22:51] rapidtrades : and he says it so nonchalantly like it's normal
[2016-09-22 19:23:06] rapidtrades : and few mins earlier they crashed to 130
[2016-09-22 19:29:37] Tetsuo : lol
[2016-09-22 19:31:05] habibi : on mt4?
[2016-09-22 19:31:44] rapidtrades : yes
[2016-09-22 19:31:46] Susperia : mt4 was always broken on btc-e
[2016-09-22 19:31:58] rapidtrades : it wasn't 'always broken' u tool
[2016-09-22 19:32:18] rapidtrades : it worked fine until few weeks ago...it was integrated with main exchange
[2016-09-22 19:33:02] rapidtrades : spikes like these didn't happen cos orders got routed to the main...but smth is broken
[2016-09-22 19:34:33] habibi : rapidtrades: just place ur bids/asks low and high to get filled on wicks like that with lot of margin left to not get liquidated

[2016-09-22 20:14:12] RocketScience : more than 50% of ETH has been lent to shorters on polo
[2016-09-22 20:14:18] RocketScience : this might get interesting soon
[2016-09-22 20:16:29] Boontjie : RocketScience: not yet
[2016-09-22 20:47:46] habibi : RocketScience: any exact numbers how much 50% is referring to?
[2016-09-22 20:48:35] RocketScience : 40k available now, max was 120k few days ago.
[2016-09-22 20:49:12] RocketScience : amount lent out could be less than 80k if people stopped offering lending in this volatile times
[2016-09-22 20:51:54] habibi : u think 80k is enough for short panic squeeze?
[2016-09-22 20:52:16] arbitrage001 : eth lending rate is quite low
[2016-09-22 20:53:03] arbitrage001 : normally high rate predict forseeable reversal since funding is expensive
[2016-09-22 20:54:38] RocketScience : true. These shorters can survive up to 0.0265 if they went 2,5x at 0.0210
[2016-09-22 20:57:25] rapidtrades : habibi: u mean place bid/asks? that's a great idea...dunno why I didn't think of that
[2016-09-22 20:57:25] RocketScience : I started high leverage trading here 2 days ago, already got rekt 2 times. Drunk on leverage :D
[2016-09-22 20:57:41] rapidtrades : habibi: oh wait I did and it doesn't work idiot
[2016-09-22 20:57:48] arbitrage001 : seen lots of people come and go here
[2016-09-22 20:57:56] arbitrage001 : especially alt coin traders
[2016-09-22 20:57:56] habibi : rapidtrades: good job, keep playing there :)
[2016-09-22 20:59:54] RocketScience : Are these 1500 orders on ETH from a bot owned by some rich guy?
[2016-09-22 21:00:33] arbitrage001 : likely suspect is sleger
[2016-09-22 21:00:48] arbitrage001 : as a market maker
[2016-09-22 21:04:07] rapidtrades : sleger...I f*cking knew it
[2016-09-22 21:08:22] rapidtrades : u can blame 60% of the shit that happens here on f*cking sleger
[2016-09-22 21:08:55] arbitrage001 : rapidtrades: how so?
[2016-09-22 21:09:39] arbitrage001 : market maker usually only make market, none directional trade
[2016-09-22 21:10:25] rapidtrades : he's too big for this place
[2016-09-22 21:10:50] RocketScience : but you get liquidated based on exchange price breaking your liq. price. I read that in the faqs
[2016-09-22 21:11:18] arbitrage001 : RocketScience: liqudation price is based on mark price
[2016-09-22 21:11:25] arbitrage001 : not market price here
[2016-09-22 21:13:25] arbitrage001 : trading eth is extremely dangerous now
[2016-09-22 21:13:30] arbitrage001 : gap up and down
[2016-09-22 21:13:35] arbitrage001 : on polo
[2016-09-22 21:13:46] RocketScience : yeah. that latest bug wasn't resolved, needs hard fork
[2016-09-22 21:13:57] arbitrage001 : have a feeling something big going to happen
[2016-09-22 21:14:00] rapidtrades : another hard fork? loolll
[2016-09-22 21:14:11] Boontjie : RocketScience: source?
[2016-09-22 21:14:14] habibi : RocketScience: source ?
[2016-09-22 21:14:32] Susperia : They are unable to fix problem, will only add crutches to mitigate it
[2016-09-22 21:14:52] rapidtrades : ETH has the worst developers by far
[2016-09-22 21:14:56] RocketScience : https://blog.ethereum.org/2016/09/22/transaction-spam-attack-next-steps/
[2016-09-22 21:15:21] Boontjie : rapidtrades: best idea though
[2016-09-22 21:15:31] RocketScience : the command that is responsible will get expensive with next HF to prevent these types of attack
[2016-09-22 21:15:42] rapidtrades : is the idea fork until u get it right? @Boontjie
[2016-09-22 21:16:11] RocketScience : The fall to 205 was because of this... Hashrate fell to 1,7 again today
[2016-09-22 21:16:38] rapidtrades : how much is 1.7....like fell from where
[2016-09-22 21:17:23] Susperia : And pools mining empty blocks now, ETH is fucked again like after DAO disaster
[2016-09-22 21:17:24] RocketScience : 5TH to 1.7TH
[2016-09-22 21:18:03] Boontjie : rapidtrades: sure until then it wwont have buttcorn marketcap
[2016-09-22 21:20:35] rapidtrades : hahaha that's great
[2016-09-22 21:20:38] rapidtrades : i hate ETH
[2016-09-22 21:21:36] rapidtrades : f*cking premined presaled spamcoin
[2016-09-22 21:21:45] rapidtrades : PPS
[2016-09-22 21:21:55] rapidtrades : actually FPPS
[2016-09-22 21:24:12] Boontjie : yeah, but the decentralized hosting it has behind it is good
[2016-09-22 21:24:18] Boontjie : But I agree on premine
[2016-09-22 21:24:45] Boontjie : All the fishy smell of get rich quick schemes
[2016-09-22 21:25:21] Boontjie : RocketScience: is that the bitcoin hashrate? Or what is this empty block talk?
[2016-09-22 21:30:13] rapidtrades : they spammed the crap out of reddit for couple of months
[2016-09-22 21:30:43] rapidtrades : right during major bull run
[2016-09-22 21:31:53] Boontjie : rapidtrades: i agree, it worked

[2016-09-22 21:38:57] rapidtrades : don't get it....why would u rush it if its not ready
[2016-09-22 21:39:16] rapidtrades : and they set a deadline for 30th if u want 1 share per token
[2016-09-22 21:39:26] rapidtrades : it's like they want tokens to crash
[2016-09-22 21:42:52] Boontjie : rapidtrades: they do
[2016-09-22 21:43:18] Boontjie : they keep news to around a week
[2016-09-22 21:43:35] Boontjie : every 7 days like clockwork
[2016-09-22 21:44:48] Boontjie : look at activity just before announcements
[2016-09-22 21:45:02] Boontjie : those executives trade
[2016-09-22 21:45:45] Kahir : hello
[2016-09-22 21:45:53] Kahir : can someone tell me what is kaiko
[2016-09-22 21:46:05] Kahir : the source for price index
[2016-09-22 21:47:22] Boontjie : google kaiko
[2016-09-22 21:52:16] Boontjie : ethblog - "allowing for adjustments similar to what was coordinated today to happen automatically". So next time if attacker will spam network nodes automatically will stop transaction mining?
[2016-09-22 21:53:32] Boontjie : the changes will reduce eth throughput if I understand correctly. mEth will die a little
[2016-09-22 22:20:53] rapidtrades : great btce was trading at premium and after they margined called me its now at discount
[2016-09-22 22:21:20] rapidtrades : don't u love bitcoin companies man
[2016-09-22 23:12:46] zanza : some big dumpuign on BTCE
[2016-09-22 23:12:55] zanza : u got margin called on MT4 rapidtrades?
[2016-09-22 23:13:10] rapidtrades : yeah...
[2016-09-22 23:28:24] sleger : poor rapid :p
[2016-09-22 23:28:42] sleger : he just bought bitcoins at 1k $
[2016-09-22 23:29:02] sleger : well, we also have jung1 short ETH at 0.2050
[2016-09-22 23:32:54] zanza : new Google Allo sucks
[2016-09-22 23:38:41] rapidtrades : sleger: no they liquidated me at 600...spikes instantly retrace and are not trabeable like i said above
[2016-09-22 23:50:20] zanza : you were long or short?'
[2016-09-22 23:50:42] zanza : btce doesn't have much leverage, so you maybe hit a stop ?
[2016-09-22 23:50:58] zanza : seems hard to get liquidatedwithout a big swing
[2016-09-22 23:56:47] rapidtrades : price spiked between 1000 and 130 today...that's ur answer
[2016-09-22 23:57:11] BitMEX_Sam : I don't see that in the charts, when did that happen?
[2016-09-22 23:57:32] rapidtrades : mt4
[2016-09-22 23:58:12] BitMEX_Sam : Ah
[2016-09-22 23:58:22] BitMEX_Sam : The disconnect between the web exchange & mt4 is very strange.
[2016-09-23 00:03:27] zanza : u kidding? wow wtf
[2016-09-23 00:03:34] zanza : thats almost criminal lol
[2016-09-23 00:04:17] zanza : so I wonder what would happen if you had a buy order at 100 limit
[2016-09-23 00:04:26] zanza : (or 130)
[2016-09-23 00:04:27] BitMEX_Sam : Free money, I guess.
[2016-09-23 00:04:36] rapidtrades : BitMEX_Sam: yes...the orderbooks were neve the sasme but previously if u sold on mt4 the order would be routed to main exchange
[2016-09-23 00:04:46] BitMEX_Sam : It's good to keep a few cheeky bids/asks on exchanges that have issues... which is all of them.
[2016-09-23 00:04:47] rapidtrades : never the same *
[2016-09-23 00:05:08] rapidtrades : BitMEX_Sam: like i said, u won't be executed...my shorts got closed at 600
[2016-09-23 00:05:47] BitMEX_Sam : Well, yeah, if it swung up & down it basically shook every margin position & stop out
[2016-09-23 00:05:52] BitMEX_Sam : But people with low bids & high asks got filled
[2016-09-23 00:06:05] rapidtrades : how so?
[2016-09-23 00:06:20] BitMEX_Sam : How else would the price swing so low? If I just had a bid sitting at 150, it would have been filled
[2016-09-23 00:06:21] zanza : did you contact their support rapidtrades? that seems like a big exchange error
[2016-09-23 00:06:29] rapidtrades : zanza: of course
[2016-09-23 00:06:37] rapidtrades : they said ask was over 1000
[2016-09-23 00:06:55] BitMEX_Sam : So did executions actually happen from 130/1000 or did liquidity just totally drop out?
[2016-09-23 00:06:56] zanza : u should make reddit thread
[2016-09-23 00:07:05] zanza : bitcoinamrkets
[2016-09-23 00:07:07] rapidtrades : BitMEX_Sam: it's not a trabeable market, the swings instantly retrace
[2016-09-23 00:07:08] habibi : sue them rapidtrades
[2016-09-23 00:07:26] BitMEX_Sam : Anywhere outside of mt4 to pull that trade history?
[2016-09-23 00:07:27] rapidtrades : u can't sue what you can't see :)
[2016-09-23 00:07:31] sleger : oh the ask was above 1000 so THEY sold YOUR posiiton at a high price hehe
[2016-09-23 00:07:52] rapidtrades : no they sold at 600...weird ass shit
[2016-09-23 00:08:10] habibi : and ur short entry was ?
[2016-09-23 00:08:28] sleger : maybe its because you didnt have enough margin to buy at more than 600
[2016-09-23 00:09:09] rapidtrades : habibi: average was around 590...so it would take a move of 150-200 to margin me at 1/3
[2016-09-23 00:09:21] zanza : if your short was closed at 600, then you didn't lose much then
[2016-09-23 00:09:31] rapidtrades : it's still money...
[2016-09-23 00:09:31] zanza : even though it sucks
[2016-09-23 00:09:46] habibi : rapidtrades: so u got margin called at 600 and all collateral is lost?
[2016-09-23 00:09:57] rapidtrades : they used the 1k price to liquidate ppl but filled me at 600
[2016-09-23 00:10:31] zanza : my FX broker uses BTCE feed for prices on Bitcoin
[2016-09-23 00:10:37] zanza : i don't see any big spikes
[2016-09-23 00:10:52] rapidtrades : zanza: which broker is that
[2016-09-23 00:10:54] zanza : just donw to 584
[2016-09-23 00:11:07] rapidtrades : try the ask price
[2016-09-23 00:11:09] zanza : fxchoice
[2016-09-23 00:11:41] rapidtrades : ok they filtered it....they filtered one of the spikes down to 130
[2016-09-23 00:12:36] rapidtrades : zanza: try btcusd ask
[2016-09-23 00:12:42] rapidtrades : its a different symbol
[2016-09-23 00:13:25] rapidtrades : spike to 1k is there but they filtered the low spike to 130 today
[2016-09-23 00:45:44] laisee : rapidtrades: why would you use a service that has such volatile pricing? or why could you not benefit from it?
[2016-09-23 00:47:12] rapidtrades : you can find my answers above ^^^
[2016-09-23 00:47:39] rapidtrades : i don't plan to use em anymore
[2016-09-23 02:53:05] laisee : rapidtrades: just asking ... sucks if their pricing varies so much because of tech reasons.

[2016-09-23 14:26:32] BitMEX_Sam : habibi: That's a bug, thanks.
[2016-09-23 14:28:20] Susperia : Anything in progress to prevent a disaster like on XMR7D a few hours ago?
[2016-09-23 14:29:05] BitMEX_Sam : Actually, that could have been 100x worse if we didn't have a mark pricing system in place - note nobody was liquidated.
[2016-09-23 14:29:34] habibi : Susperia: what happened?
[2016-09-23 14:29:59] Susperia : habibi: just check recent trades
[2016-09-23 14:30:35] BitMEX_Sam : It just swung about 15% due to thin asks, that's about it. Nobody was liquidated
[2016-09-23 14:30:48] BitMEX_Sam : I wouldn't consider that a disaster, some people just bought higher than they should have. Use limit orders
[2016-09-23 14:31:05] habibi : Susperia: just after settlement? looks like it was perfect occasion to short on that guy
[2016-09-23 14:31:17] habibi : just qty seems to been small
[2016-09-23 14:32:07] BitMEX_Sam : Right - looks to me like the contract settled, the book was thin, and someone market ordered
[2016-09-23 14:32:56] habibi : Susperia: so it was not a disaster, it was opportunity
[2016-09-23 14:33:17] Susperia : looks like it, I'd add a guard that you are going to market buy/sell at stupid price
[2016-09-23 14:33:23] BitMEX_Sam : We do have that guard.

[2016-09-23 15:04:00] Sqrl : More fun to recycle yours. Although you've used it so many times it's beginning to feel a bit worn out.

[2016-09-24 01:46:05] omicron : wtf gemini goes to the top of the btc_usd with this auction bullshit
[2016-09-24 01:46:38] omicron : shit exchange. im wondering if this volume on gemini is real. who would want to trade using this auction stuff
[2016-09-24 01:47:11] omicron : ok so the rest of you trolls need to contribute now
[2016-09-24 01:54:44] zanza : could be the Winklevoss dumping
[2016-09-24 02:25:29] omicron : right but who is buying?
[2016-09-24 02:25:59] zanza : greater fool ?

[2016-09-24 04:11:19] mjones : they dont need the money
[2016-09-24 04:11:28] mjones : they have more to gain by getting bitcoin more adopted
[2016-09-24 04:51:28] omicron : mjones: its real, but im trying to understand why you wouldnt just buy limit
[2016-09-24 05:13:51] mjones : yeah who knows

[2016-09-24 13:38:34] messiaen8844 : Any plans for REP here?
[2016-09-24 13:54:29] BitMEX_Wally : messiaen8844: If it's hot we'll list it
[2016-09-24 13:54:46] messiaen8844 : probably people will need to hedge it
[2016-09-24 13:54:57] messiaen8844 : high market cap, will be very volatile
[2016-09-24 14:27:11] Monty : Good evening gents
[2016-09-24 14:30:57] rapidtrades : 1. it's not evening
[2016-09-24 14:31:01] rapidtrades : 2. no gents here
[2016-09-24 14:31:15] BitMEX_Wally : You counted 1 twice
[2016-09-24 14:31:37] Monty : Haha
[2016-09-24 14:33:36] Monty : rapidtrades: If you are not a gent, what are you?
[2016-09-24 14:34:53] rapidtrades : STOP SELLING
[2016-09-24 14:34:55] rapidtrades : NOOOOO
[2016-09-24 14:35:01] rapidtrades : wait im hedged
[2016-09-24 14:36:03] Monty : I'm long
[2016-09-24 14:36:07] Monty : 8 inches
[2016-09-24 14:41:52] rapidtrades : hope develeraging goes live before bitcoin moves
[2016-09-24 14:42:54] Monty : What is deleveraging?
[2016-09-24 14:46:22] no : "BitMEX employs Auto Deleveraging which means that in some rare cases, leveraged positions in profit may be reduced during certain time periods if a liquidated order cannot be executed in the market."
[2016-09-24 14:46:55] no : That is not live yet, they will be moving from DPE to deleveraging in the future sometime
[2016-09-24 15:05:08] Kalman : more BTC traded @ BitMEX than @ Bitfinex in the last 24h, congrats guys
[2016-09-24 15:07:25] Susperia : Kalman: 0 btc traded actually
[2016-09-24 15:08:06] BitMEX_Wally : http://exchangewar.info/#bitmex
[2016-09-24 15:18:28] Rado : very nice
[2016-09-24 15:18:43] Rado : and fees are one of the best
[2016-09-24 15:19:34] Rado : I still don't get how Chinese exchanges have 1 mill BTC volume
[2016-09-24 15:21:38] messiaen8844 : fake wash volume
[2016-09-24 15:21:39] messiaen8844 : 0 fee
[2016-09-24 15:22:38] Rado : how do you fake the volume?
[2016-09-24 15:23:12] messiaen8844 : 0 fees, trade back and forth
[2016-09-24 15:23:29] messiaen8844 : use bots to sweep the market
[2016-09-24 15:24:24] Rado : what's the point?
[2016-09-24 15:24:34] Rado : unless they make money while doing it
[2016-09-24 16:00:55] rullwull : chinese exchange orders match only with their own orders, never match with users orders
[2016-09-24 16:04:12] BitMEX_Sam : It's a pissing contest, essentially, to see who has the top volume.
[2016-09-24 16:04:29] rullwull : they make money on lending liquidity to the users for 0.1% per day and they charge around 0.2% for CNY withdraw
[2016-09-24 16:04:45] rullwull : BTCC has real volumes
[2016-09-24 16:40:39] omicron : rullwull: wow 0.1%/day? thats 36.5%/year
[2016-09-24 16:41:03] omicron : now what happens if they lend to me and I lose the money they lent?
[2016-09-24 16:44:13] sleger : "omicron: rullwull: wow 0.1%/day? thats 36.5%/year" => epic fail, try again
[2016-09-24 17:09:33] omicron : sleger: im obviously uninfomed because i never trade there. i have no idea if the interest is simple, compounded or what. but it seems high
[2016-09-24 17:09:56] sleger : well if its per day that should answer your question
[2016-09-24 17:10:08] sleger : 0.1%/day is not 36.5%/year
[2016-09-24 18:16:08] justinlooking : sleger: help me understand gemini auction plz
[2016-09-24 18:16:35] sleger : whats to understand
[2016-09-24 18:16:57] justinlooking : https://api.gemini.com/v1/auction/btcusd/history
[2016-09-24 18:18:04] justinlooking : the 10 x indicatives...
[2016-09-24 18:18:06] justinlooking : `"highest_bid_price":"600.10","lowest_ask_price":"600.44","auction_price":"599.50"`
[2016-09-24 18:18:30] BitMEX_Sam : That data does seem a little broken at first glance
[2016-09-24 18:19:18] justinlooking : from docs >Lowest ask price from the continuous order book at the time of the auction event, if available.
[2016-09-24 18:20:35] BitMEX_Sam : So it publishes 9 indicative ticks in the 10 minutes before the auction executes.
[2016-09-24 18:20:41] justinlooking : yes
[2016-09-24 18:20:56] BitMEX_Sam : Scrolling down on https://gemini.com/blog/introducing-the-first-ever-daily-bitcoin-auction/ has some nice explanation. But I agree that those indicative ticks seem wrong
[2016-09-24 18:21:12] justinlooking : but surely lowest_ask_price is broken
[2016-09-24 18:21:16] BitMEX_Sam : It may be actually taking the bid/ask from the regular market
[2016-09-24 18:21:30] justinlooking : oh could be
[2016-09-24 18:21:53] BitMEX_Sam : So it's a way of comparing the auction price with how the regular market was trading. Makes sense actually
