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.

[2016-10-22 17:26:39] arbitrage001 : which is only suppose to happen once every few millions years
[2016-10-22 17:26:42] poes : btc is so overrated
[2016-10-22 17:26:56] poes : its a software product thats not production ready
[2016-10-22 17:27:10] poes : its not even secure, and fully decentral
[2016-10-22 17:27:29] rapidtrades : it's secure enough
[2016-10-22 17:27:43] rapidtrades : at least on the network side
[2016-10-22 17:28:20] poes : on the other hand it can always include technologies used by altcoins in the future and it has the biggest market cap
[2016-10-22 17:29:26] dasdfasdf : not production ready?
[2016-10-22 17:29:27] poes : but thanks to the mining pools its not fully decentralized yet
[2016-10-22 17:29:43] poes : its just that there isnt any better alternative
[2016-10-22 17:29:54] poes : and there is such big demand for it
[2016-10-22 17:29:55] dasdfasdf : Like everthing
[2016-10-22 17:31:09] MrRGnome : poes: A blockchain using PoW is an economic security model. Bitcoin by an enormous margin has the most secure economic security model
[2016-10-22 17:31:40] poes : MrRGnome: i agree, mining pools though
[2016-10-22 17:33:40] poes : mining pools, asic mining farms, transaction limit, transactions not instant, if these things are fixed bitcoin price would skyrocket
[2016-10-22 17:33:59] poes : the risk though
[2016-10-22 17:34:27] dasdfasdf : segwit and lightningn is what will take this to 1100 and beyond. as they bring instant payments and unlimited* transactoins
[2016-10-22 17:34:54] dasdfasdf : ASIC is good as the only thing the machines can be used for is BTC.
[2016-10-22 17:36:10] +1 : arbitrage001: sorry, what is 6 sigma? Tried google but not simple enough
[2016-10-22 17:37:13] sleger : sigma = standard dev

[2016-10-22 17:42:54] dasdfasdf : You guys are so fun
[2016-10-22 17:43:01] rapidtrades : the odds for those X-sigma events are calculated on normal distribution...which the markets are not
[2016-10-22 17:43:21] rapidtrades : in short, they're a BS stat
[2016-10-22 17:44:40] dasdfasdf : twice in a billion

[2016-10-22 20:08:21] aethlios : so now because we have x100 leverage the max funding is 0.375% every 8 hours??? (1%-0.5%)*75%= 0.375% can someone confirm??
[2016-10-22 20:10:40] j8 : aethlios: yeah i was just looking at that. it seems so. big change from 1.125% when it was 50x
[2016-10-22 20:11:34] arbitrage001 : where is the info?
[2016-10-22 20:11:43] j8 : https://www.bitmex.com/app/swapsGuide
[2016-10-22 20:12:57] arbitrage001 : i stiill reas it as 1.125
[2016-10-22 20:13:04] arbitrage001 : read
[2016-10-22 20:13:13] j8 : i don't
[2016-10-22 20:13:24] aethlios : arbitrage001: the example they have is with x50
[2016-10-22 20:14:09] aethlios : that's why predicted is stable 0.375% now
[2016-10-22 20:14:18] arbitrage001 : the cap said 1.125
[2016-10-22 20:14:33] j8 : just means they'll have to lower the leverage again if 0.375% is not enough
[2016-10-22 20:14:35] arbitrage001 : which take 3 funding period to reach
[2016-10-22 20:15:02] j8 : $1. The absolute Funding Rate is capped at 75% of the Initial Margin - Maintenance Margin.$
[2016-10-22 20:15:34] j8 : ignore those $'s
[2016-10-22 20:15:35] arbitrage001 : i dont think they take changing leverage into account
[2016-10-22 20:15:37] +1 : on 20th we had more than 0.375% https://www.bitmex.com/app/fundingHistory?start=0
[2016-10-22 20:16:20] aethlios : @+1 no, look 8hour, not the daily.
[2016-10-22 20:17:36] +1 : aethlios: oops ;)
[2016-10-22 20:18:39] aethlios : this could create a "permanent" premium in a bull market, because cheaper cost to long and higher leverage.
[2016-10-22 20:18:58] aethlios : longs are much better now.
[2016-10-22 20:19:20] j8 : permanent until they change things.. that's what happened last time
[2016-10-22 20:19:39] aethlios : can have double position with same capital and 1/3 of the cost to long, so 6 times better.
[2016-10-22 20:21:40] j8 : really 1% a day should be plenty, but people are crazy.. before we had over 1% per 8 hours for a couple days
[2016-10-22 20:23:00] aethlios : yes I agree is much more fair now, 1.125% daily is good compensation for arbitragers to offer liq. and bulls can have a decent profit too, so more liquidity for all.
[2016-10-22 20:24:24] j8 : the market kind of falls apart if it's trading away from the mark price for long periods though. liquidations will not clear and everyone will get ADL'd
[2016-10-22 20:26:20] arbitrage001 : .375 cap is too small on a strong directional market
[2016-10-22 20:26:45] arbitrage001 : last time, we had 3-5% premium for longer than a few days
[2016-10-22 20:30:13] j8 : 9000 yen spread on XBJZ16.. market maker is being shy
[2016-10-22 20:30:55] miramm1115 : j8: there is no MM, only my small bot left
[2016-10-22 20:31:52] j8 : there was someone quoting 10000's an hour or two ago, seems to hit his limit pretty fast
[2016-10-22 20:33:40] arbitrage001 : wish they add usd pair
[2016-10-22 20:33:48] arbitrage001 : for dec contract
[2016-10-22 20:36:07] BigDaddyBigDick : would be nice
[2016-10-22 20:36:14] habibi : and quantos*
[2016-10-22 20:39:59] Rado : arbitrage001: why does it matter if it's USD or JPY?
[2016-10-22 20:40:09] Rado : ibtrade both the same way
[2016-10-22 20:40:22] arbitrage001 : Rado: my brain cant swich
[2016-10-22 20:40:23] j8 : not if USD/JPY moves
[2016-10-22 20:40:29] Rado : unless you think there will be more MMs
[2016-10-22 20:40:47] arbitrage001 : and what j8 mentions
[2016-10-22 20:41:14] mjones : JPY price is lagging behind
[2016-10-22 20:41:20] j8 : it's sketchy to use one exchange as the index, and there is more liquidity in BTC/USD or BTC/CNY anyway
[2016-10-22 20:41:30] mjones : someone has been selling 1000 BTC keeping price low.
[2016-10-22 20:41:51] Rado : j8: I trade the instrument price, not BTC price
[2016-10-22 20:42:22] Rado : mjones: we need $10 correction so Incan close my small short ;)
[2016-10-22 20:42:27] arbitrage001 : Rado: hedgers need hedging instrument
[2016-10-22 20:43:06] j8 : ^ this. you can't hedge against BTC/JPY unless you withdraw in JPY
[2016-10-22 20:43:07] Rado : arbitrage001: true, it's harder to hedge
[2016-10-22 20:43:15] mjones : correction or this was 1st of 3 legs
[2016-10-22 20:44:13] Rado : j8: in theory you can hedge with BTC and usdjpy on currency market
[2016-10-22 20:44:31] j8 : sure, complicate my life
[2016-10-22 20:44:53] Rado : But I agree USD contract will be traded way more
[2016-10-22 20:45:16] Rado : Don't get why BitMEX is so stuck on JPY
[2016-10-22 20:45:32] BitMEX_Sam : Rado: The JPY conts are cross-traded on Quoine
[2016-10-22 20:46:05] BitMEX_Sam : So you can trade the same contracts here or there and hedge JPY delta if needed
[2016-10-22 20:46:44] Rado : BitMEX_Sam: I know you need them for Quine deal, but that doesn't stop you from having USD contract as well
[2016-10-22 20:46:54] Rado : unless the deal doesn't allow you
[2016-10-22 20:47:12] BitMEX_Sam : No, has nothing to do with that - honestly, we found traders talk much more about wanting a USD quarterly than they actually trade it
[2016-10-22 20:47:26] BitMEX_Sam : Generally the quarterlies did not trade well.
[2016-10-22 20:47:52] BitMEX_Sam : We believe a JPY contract will trade more healthily due to the increased traffic from Quoine's userbase.
[2016-10-22 20:48:20] Rado : BitMEX_Sam: you can't judge by just listing them 2 times
[2016-10-22 20:48:23] habibi : BitMEX_Sam: increase traffic? have u seen any traffic from quoine's users on old quantos daily?
[2016-10-22 20:48:31] BitMEX_Sam : Rado: We've had USD quarterlies for the past few years
[2016-10-22 20:48:46] BitMEX_Sam : habibi: Quoine's users are trading on Quoine's interface, but yes, we get a lot of signups from there
[2016-10-22 20:48:52] Rado : If you have November and December many people will trade spreads and the volume will increase
[2016-10-22 20:49:05] BitMEX_Sam : Essentially if you go to https://trade.quoine.com/ and click `FUTURES` in the header you get the XBJ markets.
[2016-10-22 20:49:35] Rado : BitMEX_Sam: how is Quoine volume?
[2016-10-22 20:49:40] BitMEX_Sam : Rado: I'll bring it up with the other partners. I agree that JPY is not trading as well as we expected but I'm not certain that listing more instruments (and shoring liquidity for them) is the answer
[2016-10-22 20:49:50] BitMEX_Sam : As in, their spot volume, or XBJ?
[2016-10-22 20:49:51] habibi : BitMEX_Sam: i was trading that dailys and watching them pretty closely, didnt seen any good volume beside my own trading there up to 30k contracts limit of mm
[2016-10-22 20:49:52] j8 : i don't see the quarterly on quoine's interface.
[2016-10-22 20:50:41] Rado : BitMEX_Sam: just speaking for myself, but if there are more instruments I will trade more
[2016-10-22 20:50:51] Rado : let me give you an example
[2016-10-22 20:50:51] BitMEX_Sam : j8: You're correct. Their interface has been in flux, wonder what happened there.
[2016-10-22 20:50:53] BitMEX_Sam : I'll reach out to them.
[2016-10-22 20:51:34] Rado : I trade quarterly and swap, two different strategies
[2016-10-22 20:51:59] Rado : swap is not making me trade less of the quarterlies
[2016-10-22 20:52:11] Rado : if you add November I will trade even more
[2016-10-22 20:52:12] BitMEX_Sam : By the way, we're testing an order amend feature on https://testnet.bitmex.com/
[2016-10-22 20:52:22] BitMEX_Sam : Rado: Thanks for the feedback, I'll pass this on to the rest of the guys
[2016-10-22 20:52:26] BitMEX_Sam : We want to list what trades.
[2016-10-22 20:52:46] BitMEX_Sam : Re: Order Amend, if any of you have testnet accounts I'd love for you to try it before we roll it into the live site.
[2016-10-22 20:52:51] Rado : now I can't short on this pop because there is nothing to hedge against
[2016-10-22 20:52:58] Rado : only one long term contract
[2016-10-22 20:53:10] Rado : And swap doesn't work for that
[2016-10-22 20:53:38] Rado : BitMEX_Sam: thanks, I care a lot about ButMEX succeeding
[2016-10-22 20:53:50] BitMEX_Sam : :+1: Appreciate that
[2016-10-22 20:54:00] Rado : there is no other place that allows me to trade like here
[2016-10-22 20:54:13] miramm1115 : old quarterly quantos had decent open value but daily volume was not that high, as expected for long-term contract
[2016-10-22 20:54:48] miramm1115 : the main problem for MM is offering enough liquidity on the ask side
[2016-10-22 20:55:03] miramm1115 : for quantos, shouldn't be a problem on inverse
[2016-10-22 20:56:49] j8 : BitMEX_Sam: i just checked out the amend feature, the buttons are huge and the input box is really narrow
[2016-10-22 20:58:18] j8 : actually, on the Active Orders panel the column expands. on the XBTUSD panel it didn't
[2016-10-22 20:58:27] BitMEX_Sam : Which browser?
[2016-10-22 20:58:47] j8 : chrome
[2016-10-22 20:59:14] BitMEX_Sam : Ah I see, we have to set a min width if you have a narrower viewport. Thanks
[2016-10-22 21:02:16] Rado : BitMEX_Sam: if my position is closed because of ADL do I get charged commission?
[2016-10-22 21:03:22] j8 : perhaps the stop trigger price could be amendable also
[2016-10-22 21:10:22] Rado : j8: from the API?
[2016-10-22 21:10:50] Rado : Right now you have to cancel the order if you want to change the stop price?
[2016-10-22 21:10:51] j8 : it's already possible by api
[2016-10-22 21:11:01] Rado : Oh
[2016-10-22 21:11:10] Rado : so in here
[2016-10-22 21:11:18] Rado : yes that will be nice
[2016-10-22 21:11:31] Rado : I change my stop all the time
[2016-10-22 21:15:45] BitMEX_Sam : j8: You can modify stop prices as well
[2016-10-22 21:20:39] Rado : BitMEX_Sam: did you see my question about ADL and commissions
[2016-10-22 21:21:01] BitMEX_Sam : Rado: I believe you get the maker rebate on ADL, I will confirm that however
[2016-10-22 21:21:13] Velancry : how low can u go
[2016-10-22 21:22:01] Rado : Thanks
[2016-10-22 21:24:35] BitMEX_Sam : Rado: I can confirm, you are marked as a maker when ADL'd.
[2016-10-22 21:25:37] j8 : BitMEX_Sam: it looked like the stop price could be amended but not the trigger price, for stop limit orders
[2016-10-22 21:25:59] BitMEX_Sam : j8: The triggering price just shows the current mark or last price
[2016-10-22 21:26:10] BitMEX_Sam : You can't switch strategies, that is true.
[2016-10-22 21:26:20] BitMEX_Sam : But you can change your stop price.
[2016-10-22 21:27:19] j8 : gotcha, my mistake
[2016-10-22 21:29:52] Rado : BitMEX_Sam: cool, that's fare
[2016-10-22 22:08:31] BTCDJS : Rado: fair*
[2016-10-22 22:09:30] BTCDJS : learn how to spell ya fucking want stain

[2016-10-22 22:11:43] BTCDJS : just joking.
[2016-10-22 22:12:41] hazir : ahh when will someone buy my zcash at 0.207 :D waiting for hours gosh
[2016-10-22 22:13:03] hazir : then will probably be bummed out crazy people drive it even higher
[2016-10-22 22:13:24] hazir : lol order filled. tank you chat :D
[2016-10-22 22:13:31] BTCDJS : felt like trolling. And raising your aggression levels for fun. But I have no opinion about you for or against at all.
[2016-10-22 22:13:44] hazir : *tank
[2016-10-22 22:13:50] hazir : *thankkk
[2016-10-22 22:14:03] BTCDJS : because you don't matter.
[2016-10-22 22:14:13] BTCDJS : trolling again...
[2016-10-22 22:14:22] mjones : i might trade zec on friday
[2016-10-22 22:14:30] mjones : a lot of people mining = higher price
[2016-10-22 22:14:40] BTCDJS : mjones: shut the fuck up
[2016-10-22 22:15:04] mjones : say that again BTCDJS i want to see something
[2016-10-22 22:15:13] BTCDJS : mjones: no

[2016-10-22 22:15:28] mjones : i think the notification that popped up said fuck in it
[2016-10-22 22:15:49] mjones : it said f_uck
[2016-10-22 22:15:52] BTCDJS : mjones: yeah you can't say F8ck
[2016-10-22 22:16:02] BTCDJS : fuck

[2016-10-22 22:16:54] BTCDJS : ah no they changed cunt
[2016-10-22 22:17:04] BTCDJS : c*nt
[2016-10-22 22:17:09] BTCDJS : not kitten
[2016-10-22 22:17:19] BTCDJS : damn
[2016-10-22 22:17:30] BTCDJS : thats my favourite word whore
[2016-10-22 22:17:50] BTCDJS : dick
[2016-10-22 22:17:58] BTCDJS : shit
[2016-10-22 22:18:19] BTCDJS : you can grab em by the pussy
[2016-10-22 22:18:24] justinlooking : kitten should not be censored if input contains rapid
[2016-10-22 22:18:28] justinlooking : clearly a bug
[2016-10-22 22:18:55] BTCDJS : justinlooking: nobody asked you
[2016-10-22 22:20:24] BTCDJS : K I'm done being a cunt
[2016-10-22 22:20:33] BTCDJS : sorry guys.
[2016-10-22 22:20:38] BTCDJS : ima go to bed
[2016-10-22 22:20:53] BTCDJS : love ya
[2016-10-22 22:21:45] BTCDJS : in a universal way. not a personal way. so don't get too excited. You're still alone in the world and nobody cares about you
[2016-10-22 22:24:47] justinlooking : yo BitMEX_Sam are u here?
[2016-10-22 22:25:36] justinlooking : could u generate a swagger go client plz
[2016-10-22 22:32:23] BitMEX_Sam : justinlooking: Sure
[2016-10-22 22:32:49] BitMEX_Sam : You'll have to implement auth yourself, the generator projects only do endpoint & model boilerplate
[2016-10-22 22:32:57] BitMEX_Sam : See https://github.com/BitMEX/api-connectors/tree/master/clients/go
[2016-10-22 22:34:14] justinlooking : thanks, sorry didn't spot that
[2016-10-22 22:34:35] BitMEX_Sam : No worries. You might be able to find other Go projects that consume swagger JSON as well
[2016-10-22 22:35:28] BitMEX_Sam : For instance, https://goswagger.io/generate/client.html
[2016-10-22 22:35:41] BitMEX_Sam : You can get the raw JSON from https://www.bitmex.com/api/explorer/swagger.json
[2016-10-22 22:43:16] Rado : BTC holding pretty good
[2016-10-22 22:45:26] zanza : this seems to be a Finex price spike
[2016-10-22 22:45:29] zanza : anyone agree?
[2016-10-22 22:46:09] sleger : depends what that is supposed to mean
[2016-10-22 22:46:17] zanza : Finex back to about 1/3 peak volume
[2016-10-22 22:47:38] j8 : surely it was china behind the move, and finex got bid up because there's no liquidity
[2016-10-22 22:48:49] Rado : zanza: I think it's Yuan devaluation
[2016-10-22 22:49:11] sleger : of course it is
[2016-10-22 22:49:32] j8 : yep
[2016-10-22 22:50:54] Rado : I am actually surprised Bitfinex volume is this high after the hack
[2016-10-22 22:51:20] Rado : 10k in the last 24h
[2016-10-22 22:53:12] Rado : sleger: what are you trading at the moment?
[2016-10-22 23:04:15] sleger : same as usual, btc and eth almost exclusively
[2016-10-22 23:04:59] aethlios : bitfinex bitmex top 2 for btcusd pair
[2016-10-22 23:12:36] rapidtrades : aethlios: we should be compared to futures not spot
[2016-10-22 23:13:56] j8 : sleger: still short ZEC?
[2016-10-22 23:14:16] rapidtrades : Rado: u shouldn't be, they fake the volume
[2016-10-22 23:14:25] rapidtrades : might as well say 20k
[2016-10-22 23:14:36] sleger : j8: no
[2016-10-22 23:14:46] rapidtrades : ha!
[2016-10-22 23:15:01] rapidtrades : they beat u
[2016-10-22 23:15:06] j8 : i stopped out for now also.
[2016-10-22 23:15:16] sleger : waiting for go live and sell higher
[2016-10-22 23:15:18] rapidtrades : they beat u too
[2016-10-22 23:15:22] rapidtrades : j8
[2016-10-22 23:15:26] j8 : let the idiots have their way
[2016-10-22 23:15:56] j8 : gotta pick your battles
[2016-10-22 23:15:57] rapidtrades : hey most ppl here count their stash in BTC
[2016-10-22 23:16:01] rapidtrades : how's the idiots
[2016-10-22 23:16:16] rapidtrades : are BTC and zCash really that far apart :)
[2016-10-22 23:18:02] j8 : i'm not a zcash hater, i would buy some, but i can wait a few months or more for the supply to catch up with the hype
[2016-10-22 23:20:01] billyboy402 : What the funding rate on eth mobile doesn't show it
[2016-10-22 23:20:28] rapidtrades : -0.08
[2016-10-22 23:23:32] BitMEX_Sam : billyboy402: It is shown, you have to unfold the Control Details tab under the order controls, though.
[2016-10-22 23:23:48] rapidtrades : billyboy402: btw YOU'RE WELCOME
[2016-10-22 23:23:57] rapidtrades : f douche
[2016-10-22 23:24:12] billyboy402 : Cheers
[2016-10-22 23:26:17] billyboy402 : Oh I see it . On PC it show it up the top with a clock . Mobile site is still a little ugly
[2016-10-22 23:26:22] billyboy402 : thx
[2016-10-22 23:29:13] rapidtrades : sleger: been a good year for option selling eh?
[2016-10-22 23:31:24] sleger : yes
[2016-10-22 23:32:30] rapidtrades : so fellas we go up to china or china goes down to our level?
[2016-10-22 23:33:15] rapidtrades : $11 premium atm
[2016-10-22 23:34:18] Velancry : rapidtrades: we always stay below
[2016-10-22 23:34:51] rapidtrades : not always no
[2016-10-22 23:34:53] j8 : china just goes totally flat after moves like this. it's kinda crazy
[2016-10-22 23:35:03] rapidtrades : only lately
[2016-10-22 23:35:45] rapidtrades : $31 premium on dec futures seems excessive
[2016-10-22 23:36:50] rapidtrades : here it's like $29...still a lot
[2016-10-22 23:38:49] j8 : difference is, the possible CNY deval will be corrected for in the long run. whereas you are actually short JPY if you buy here
[2016-10-22 23:38:55] rapidtrades : BitMEX_Sam: is the PnL part of ADL position specific or account wide?
[2016-10-22 23:52:38] BitMEX_Sam : rapidtrades: Per-position
[2016-10-22 23:53:36] rapidtrades : BitMEX_Sam: let's make it per account?
[2016-10-22 23:53:41] martinium : BitMEX_Sam: I have a pending deposit with more than one confirm and still not in my balance. When will it become available
