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.

[2017-01-04 17:46:54] BTCDJS : rapidtrades: 1193 if I remember what I saw correctly
[2017-01-04 17:47:02] rapidtrades : looooool
[2017-01-04 17:47:04] thomaskikansha : probably the max leverage will be lowered for a higher funding cap
[2017-01-04 17:47:08] BTCDJS : on here tho
[2017-01-04 17:47:11] aaaaa : whaaaat

[2017-01-04 17:47:23] BTCDJS : during all the flashing and excitement
[2017-01-04 17:47:23] CaptainDean : rapidtrades: least*
[2017-01-04 17:47:26] rapidtrades : this is gettng redic
[2017-01-04 17:47:31] arbitrage001 : lowering leverage from 100 to 50 is non issue lol
[2017-01-04 17:47:39] rapidtrades : lower the leverage
[2017-01-04 17:47:46] alejandromasari : do I have toay funding if I am not using any leverage for swap?
[2017-01-04 17:47:49] arbitrage001 : people cant not survive 50x, 100x is just marketing jargon
[2017-01-04 17:47:57] imapotato : ok, I'm going to actually go take that shower. Looks like we're going to pull back down a bit.
[2017-01-04 17:47:59] imapotato : Cheers
[2017-01-04 17:47:59] alejandromasari : do I have to pay funding if I am not using any leverage for swap?
[2017-01-04 17:48:07] MrRGnome : alejandromasari: es
[2017-01-04 17:48:10] MrRGnome : *yes
[2017-01-04 17:48:12] rapidtrades : it's not keeping the swap inline naymore
[2017-01-04 17:48:25] BitMEX_Greg : alejandromasari: Yes, if you are buying the swap you pay or receive funding irrespective or your leverage
[2017-01-04 17:48:29] BTC-Noob : tommygunn: loll rip that guy haha, thanks btw
[2017-01-04 17:49:19] BTCDJS : rapidtrades: you still short mate?
[2017-01-04 17:50:10] rowrow : i think half the shorters are dead by now
[2017-01-04 17:50:42] tommygunn : rowrow: 1/2 now 1/2 later
[2017-01-04 17:50:43] sleger : BitMEX_Greg: swap being off market will hit the insurance fund
[2017-01-04 17:50:58] alejandromasari : BitMEX_Greg: thx
[2017-01-04 17:51:01] BitMEX_Greg : sleger: How do you mean
[2017-01-04 17:51:18] alejandromasari : I am starting to use the xbth17 I like it
[2017-01-04 17:51:23] rowrow : so longers pay more than shorters receive?
[2017-01-04 17:51:29] sleger : BitMEX_Greg: liquidations happen at mark, but swap is trading way above mark, so that takes money from the insurance fund
[2017-01-04 17:51:36] arbitrage001 : sleger is miles ahead on how things work
[2017-01-04 17:51:49] tommygunn : well we reached my 1150 target way to fast, 1200?
[2017-01-04 17:52:06] MrRGnome : arbitrage001: He likes to think he is, but he really isn't.
[2017-01-04 17:52:28] BitMEX_Greg : sleger: Right, if liquidations occur then funds are spent to aggress them otherwise delev will occur
[2017-01-04 17:53:10] sleger : MrRGnome: and you are clearly miles behind
[2017-01-04 17:53:25] tommygunn : 163.1727 XBT in fund
[2017-01-04 17:53:31] thomaskikansha : sleger: the funding is not high enough to push market price back to mark? If I am wrong
[2017-01-04 17:53:32] MrRGnome : sleger: keep opening closing and opening positions because you're afraid of the adl boogeyman.
[2017-01-04 17:53:39] sleger : thomaskikansha: thats correct
[2017-01-04 17:54:08] Kalman : what happend tothe fund 11/24 ?
[2017-01-04 17:54:10] sleger : thomaskikansha: funding cap is dictated by the rules and current max leverage, at 100x that is 0.375% per 8 hours
[2017-01-04 17:54:20] sleger : Kalman: zec rekt
[2017-01-04 17:54:50] Kalman : oh, now i see that are my btc
[2017-01-04 17:54:58] Kalman : thx
[2017-01-04 17:56:12] thomaskikansha : sleger: so a higher funding would be an incentive for ppl to sell swap towards to mark?
[2017-01-04 17:56:21] sleger : thomaskikansha: yes
[2017-01-04 17:56:31] shiroe : so much profit in the aairr, ye hey
[2017-01-04 17:56:35] BTC-Noob : hey guys do anyone know what this mark price mean? and if i sell will that be based on mark price then?
[2017-01-04 17:56:36] sleger : but can only happen if they lower leverage or change other rule
[2017-01-04 17:56:54] BTCDJS : Bollinger says this is going higher lol
[2017-01-04 17:57:12] elmorte : thomaskikansha: correct...or hold long less
[2017-01-04 17:58:02] REKT : Liquidated short on `XBTH17`: buy 250 @ 1230.14
[2017-01-04 17:58:16] MrRGnome : BTC-Noob: mark price is used for calculating forced liquidations and funding rate, as well as all the estimates you see on your dashboard. It isn't the price you get if you trade, you need to look a tthe orderbook to see what price you'd get
[2017-01-04 17:58:55] BTC-Noob : oke perfect that makes sense. Thankx buddy
[2017-01-04 17:59:22] rapidtrades : $16 premium?
[2017-01-04 17:59:26] anonymous123421 : BTCC is hitting all time high!
[2017-01-04 17:59:33] rapidtrades : bitmex are u gonna act or just watch
[2017-01-04 17:59:45] anonymous123421 : https://bitcoinity.org/markets/btcchina/CNY
[2017-01-04 17:59:56] REKT : Liquidated short on `XBTUSD`: buy 1338 @ 1135.61
[2017-01-04 18:00:14] rapidtrades : wtf was that
[2017-01-04 18:00:25] MrRGnome : rapidtrades: If they acted it would probably upset as many people as not acting will. They are in a no win situation.
[2017-01-04 18:00:34] CaptainDean : we are not a big volume move tho
[2017-01-04 18:00:46] rapidtrades : why did it reload like that,,,it usually does that on funding
[2017-01-04 18:00:47] REKT : Liquidated short on `XBTUSD`: buy 1 @ 1135.67 :punch: :whale:
[2017-01-04 18:01:04] alejandromasari : BitMEX_Greg: my order filled below my limit price!!
[2017-01-04 18:01:30] CaptainDean : in a big***
[2017-01-04 18:01:37] gustavo7 : it probably didn't
[2017-01-04 18:02:10] BitMEX_Sam : alejandromasari: We are not seeing that - are you looking at your entry price?
[2017-01-04 18:02:14] sleger : china 64$ above
[2017-01-04 18:02:27] rapidtrades : MrRGnome: not rly, the cut will only affect new positions
[2017-01-04 18:02:35] alejandromasari : BitMEX_Sam: it filled one penny under my limiit price
[2017-01-04 18:02:39] jung1 : BITMEX will be goldman sachs for bitcoin in few years
[2017-01-04 18:02:41] anonymous123421 : I love china
[2017-01-04 18:02:56] BitMEX_Sam : alejandromasari: That may have been a notification bug, the prices check out in the history
[2017-01-04 18:03:23] wurstgelee : BitMEX_Sam: are those freezing order books and insane lags during more active times fixed now? :/
[2017-01-04 18:03:24] Apocalyptic : jung1: GS is not an exchange
[2017-01-04 18:03:26] sleger : thats the rounding bug
[2017-01-04 18:03:34] BitMEX_Sam : wurstgelee: We're working on it
[2017-01-04 18:03:39] MrRGnome : rapidtrades: cut to what, leverage? Isn't that going to change the funding rate? That would affect everyone
[2017-01-04 18:03:45] rapidtrades : look at this giant daily candle man
[2017-01-04 18:03:46] sleger : as soon as 500 users are liquidated it will be fast again
[2017-01-04 18:03:49] wurstgelee : BitMEX_Sam: as in "not yet". thanks for update tho ;)
[2017-01-04 18:04:02] rapidtrades : MrRGnome: it should affect everyone man, we're 18 above spot
[2017-01-04 18:04:15] rapidtrades : TIME TO CUT SOME FOMO G
[2017-01-04 18:04:21] rapidtrades : LEGS*
[2017-01-04 18:04:24] MrRGnome : sure and you can advocate for that change, but because it affects everyone I imagine some people would be pissed
[2017-01-04 18:04:27] arbitrage001 : yes
[2017-01-04 18:04:36] MrRGnome : It would be great for me if funding became uncapped
[2017-01-04 18:04:36] arbitrage001 : a lot of shorty will get rekt
[2017-01-04 18:05:04] j8 : MrRGnome: it will affect everyone more if nothing changes (longs will be deleveraged, swap totally unhinged from spot)
[2017-01-04 18:05:25] sleger : when the market is broken everyone wants it fixed
[2017-01-04 18:05:26] arbitrage001 : making the swap product meaningless
[2017-01-04 18:05:30] sleger : gnome doesnt understand much
[2017-01-04 18:05:36] MrRGnome : sleger: lol
[2017-01-04 18:05:43] j8 : once people realize they can short, get liquidated and short higher.. it's free money out of the insurance fund
[2017-01-04 18:05:51] MrRGnome : sleger: I think what you don't understand is that there are traders this change would benefit, others it won't.
[2017-01-04 18:06:00] sleger : listen to everyone dummy
[2017-01-04 18:06:05] MrRGnome : That puts bitmex in a hard spot
[2017-01-04 18:06:17] j8 : they've been in this spot before, and they reduced the leverage
[2017-01-04 18:06:19] ayy_lmao : lmao small position of mine got liquidated bc of mark price
[2017-01-04 18:06:21] j8 : that's called a precident
[2017-01-04 18:06:22] ayy_lmao : was long
[2017-01-04 18:06:22] rapidtrades : this is crazy
[2017-01-04 18:06:22] sleger : the smart people are explaining you
[2017-01-04 18:06:46] brouk : BitMEX_Sam: What happens to my long position when I have 0 account balance to pay funding?
[2017-01-04 18:06:47] rowrow : it's taken me four hours to eat my breakfast, too much action
[2017-01-04 18:06:49] jung1 : sleger: how are your trades going?
[2017-01-04 18:06:49] MrRGnome : Well you don't need to convince me
[2017-01-04 18:07:01] sleger : jung1: very well thanks, how is lisk ?
[2017-01-04 18:07:06] CaptainDean : wow
[2017-01-04 18:07:09] CaptainDean : another 150
[2017-01-04 18:07:10] MrRGnome : I'm all for reducing leverage. I'm just saying it's a tough position for bitmex to be in precident or not.
[2017-01-04 18:07:13] CaptainDean : and i wasn't looking
[2017-01-04 18:07:14] CaptainDean : LOL
[2017-01-04 18:07:17] brojo : brouk: i believe it just comes from your margin --- if your long your probably up and should be fine
[2017-01-04 18:07:20] alejandromasari : 17 dollars to gold parity
[2017-01-04 18:07:23] sleger : MrRGnome: its not the first time
[2017-01-04 18:07:31] REKT : Liquidated short on `XBTUSD`: buy 3558 @ 1142.36
[2017-01-04 18:07:34] REKT : Liquidated short on `XBTUSD`: buy 15 @ 1144.53
[2017-01-04 18:07:34] REKT : Gentlemen, we have an eREKTion!
[2017-01-04 18:07:34] sleger : they have already played with leverage in similar cases
[2017-01-04 18:07:37] rowrow : reducing from 100x leverage to 25x probably wouldn't do much in terms of big liquidations
[2017-01-04 18:07:40] jung1 : sleger: I told you that Im out of this on plus, but still around ico price as I saw
[2017-01-04 18:07:48] MrRGnome : If I recall the there has been pretty mixed success in changing contract details and the resulting public reaction.
[2017-01-04 18:07:53] rapidtrades : wel thanks for draining the fund bitmex
[2017-01-04 18:08:03] rapidtrades : like it wasn't low enough
[2017-01-04 18:08:06] rowrow : the highest leverages get liquidated so fast they don't effect much (if the price moves the wrong way)
[2017-01-04 18:08:25] lockhedge : j8: iirc in June they waited for a small correction before they increased the funding cap (so nobody got instantly rekt because of this change)
[2017-01-04 18:08:36] rowrow : what was it before?
[2017-01-04 18:08:51] CaptainDean : we are spiking wayyy to fast now
[2017-01-04 18:08:54] jung1 : BITMEX FTW im so happy that I have 20% aff comission is so early stage
[2017-01-04 18:09:02] jung1 : feels lika shareholder hehe
[2017-01-04 18:09:37] gustavo7 : i whish they would bring back XBU
[2017-01-04 18:09:52] tommygunn : CaptainDean: what you taking about
[2017-01-04 18:09:59] BitMEX_Wally : gustavo7: XBTUSD and XBTH17 are inverse futures just like XBU
[2017-01-04 18:10:08] WarWarBanana : bitmex just closed my long position?
[2017-01-04 18:10:08] sleger : 71$ premium china
[2017-01-04 18:10:22] sleger : BitMEX_Wally: how much is left in the swap insurance fund ?
[2017-01-04 18:10:23] CaptainDean : tommygunn: i'm saying the price is now going way up tooo fast, huge bubble
[2017-01-04 18:10:28] ayy_lmao : suprised bitmex doenst prevent you from raising position above mark liquidation price
[2017-01-04 18:10:47] tommygunn : CaptainDean: you mean like the last 2 weeks fast or even faster
[2017-01-04 18:10:48] BitMEX_Greg : WarWarBanana: Check your Trade History
[2017-01-04 18:10:48] rapidtrades : sleger:about $3.50
[2017-01-04 18:10:50] rowrow : WarWarBanana: were you super-high leverage? price just dropped $7
[2017-01-04 18:10:58] CaptainDean : tommygunn: yeah
[2017-01-04 18:11:05] tommygunn : CaptainDean: you rock
[2017-01-04 18:11:21] RocketScience : why was mark 1235 on xbtusd march 31? bid didn't go below 1240
[2017-01-04 18:11:24] y1uy : btccny to 8888

[2017-01-04 18:11:33] Dynamix : Been here for a month
[2017-01-04 18:11:39] CaptainDean : Gr33d: hahaha :D

[2017-01-04 18:12:06] jung1 : rapidtrades: when you are going to rebuy?
[2017-01-04 18:12:12] rowrow : if volatility goes up to former bitcoin levels, this site is gonna be insane with the leverage
[2017-01-04 18:12:16] rapidtrades : never @jung1
[2017-01-04 18:12:17] CaptainDean : rapidtrades: logarythmic ? not sure it can be say in english like that
[2017-01-04 18:12:35] imapotato : rapidtrades: a few days is a few hundred % increase when we go parabolic
[2017-01-04 18:12:50] rapidtrades : it's almost 40% crash after
[2017-01-04 18:12:55] CaptainDean : Micmix called the XBTh17 @ 967 as a nice low introduction and I didn't do in
[2017-01-04 18:12:56] j8 : logarithmic growth is not exciting
[2017-01-04 18:13:03] shiroe : Stop limit! :)
[2017-01-04 18:13:05] rapidtrades : does it come now, or 2 days alter
[2017-01-04 18:13:05] BTCDJS : rapidtrades: what are the odds we go to 1800?
[2017-01-04 18:13:10] trestres : to bitmex staff, have you in program to increase funding cap or/and deverelage?
[2017-01-04 18:13:11] gustavo7 : BitMEX_Wally: oh cool, was away some months

[2017-01-04 18:13:42] gustavo7 : maybe i also asked this question in fall when i played with ETH, good to know anyway
[2017-01-04 18:13:45] CaptainDean : 967 => 1153 insane
[2017-01-04 18:13:53] imapotato : Brakes? Where we're going, we won't need any brakes.
[2017-01-04 18:13:56] BTCDJS : rapidtrades: got that straight out of your ass again huh?
[2017-01-04 18:14:04] rapidtrades : always do :)
[2017-01-04 18:14:07] tommygunn : just remember this run, good for chit chat later on when none will believe you
[2017-01-04 18:14:17] CaptainDean : tommygunn: hahah :D

[2017-01-04 18:14:44] arbitrage001 : who would have thought getting rich is this easy
[2017-01-04 18:14:52] arbitrage001 : just buy the dip !
[2017-01-04 18:14:56] BitMEX_Wally : WarWarBanana: Your position was closed because you had a Stop order to sell that was triggered
[2017-01-04 18:14:56] CaptainDean : more then that, 25 Nov my last one
[2017-01-04 18:14:57] rowrow : ez pz
[2017-01-04 18:15:38] WarWarBanana : Ah by bad BitMEX_Wally, thanks for clarifying.

[2017-01-04 18:17:16] BitMEX_Wally : trestres: If the swap continues to trade at a 1% premium then we will announce a reduction in max leverage from 100x to 50x so the funding rate can increase
[2017-01-04 18:17:45] trestres : BitMEX_Wally: ok thank you
[2017-01-04 18:17:51] sleger : when would that be ?
[2017-01-04 18:18:51] Izakun : hi
[2017-01-04 18:19:06] Izakun : what is the minimum deposit to start trade ?
[2017-01-04 18:19:08] CaptainDean : nop more 100x fomo !
[2017-01-04 18:19:58] tommygunn : BitMEX_Wally: I like that idea
[2017-01-04 18:21:42] Apocalyptic : The Winklewii ETF is delayed again
[2017-01-04 18:21:51] BitMEX_Greg : Izakun: 0.0001 XBT
[2017-01-04 18:22:09] imapotato : BitMEX_Wally: profits keep reducing my overall leverage :(
[2017-01-04 18:22:49] sleger : imapotato: realise and reopen, just dont tell gnome about it he doesnt understand
[2017-01-04 18:22:58] BitMEX_Wally : imapotato: They reduce your effective leverage yes, because unrealised PNL is part of the position margin
[2017-01-04 18:23:02] imapotato : sleger: lol
[2017-01-04 18:23:39] j8 : BitMEX_Wally: that makes it really hard to hold hedged positions, it's brutal with no rebalances
[2017-01-04 18:23:44] tommygunn : off to appointments keep up the good work
[2017-01-04 18:23:54] BitMEX_Wally : j8: We are working on unlocking the unrealised PNL when you re-adjust leverage
[2017-01-04 18:24:18] j8 : would be better if you don't have to babysit it
[2017-01-04 18:24:37] rowrow : BitMEX_Wally: what would the funding rate change to if leverage goes to 50x?
[2017-01-04 18:24:40] j8 : but i'll take what i can get
[2017-01-04 18:25:21] BitMEX_Greg : rowrow: It is the same irrespective of your leverage
[2017-01-04 18:25:26] MikeHunt : short?
[2017-01-04 18:25:30] MikeHunt : bot fuzz i see
[2017-01-04 18:25:40] rowrow : BitMEX_Greg: i mean if the max rate were changed to 50x, what would the max funding rate change to
[2017-01-04 18:25:45] lockhedge : rowrow: 1.125%
[2017-01-04 18:25:50] justinlooking : presumably halving max leverage would allowing doubling the funding rate cap.
[2017-01-04 18:26:17] fineregex : funding rate cap =?
[2017-01-04 18:26:55] justinlooking : +0.375% /8hr is upper limit (ie where it is now)
[2017-01-04 18:27:22] BitMEX_Greg : rowrow: Ah sorry, I need to check with Wally, but presumably 0.75% (i.e. 2* the current rate)
[2017-01-04 18:27:28] j8 : nope
[2017-01-04 18:27:56] rowrow : BitMEX_Greg: @justinlooking makes sense, wasn't sure if there were any other factors in play
[2017-01-04 18:28:13] lockhedge : "The absolute Funding Rate is capped at 75% of the Initial Margin - Maintenance Margin. If the Initial Margin is 2% and the Maintenance Margin is 0.5%, the maximum Funding Rate will be 75% * (2% - 0.5%)= 1.125%."
[2017-01-04 18:28:17] rowrow : i'd be for the change, though i'm biased since i'm short now
[2017-01-04 18:28:17] lockhedge : https://www.bitmex.com/app/swapsGuide#funding
[2017-01-04 18:28:47] rowrow : lockhedge: ty
[2017-01-04 18:29:03] imapotato : China doesn't want to sit in the 8000s for very long.
[2017-01-04 18:29:13] Apocalyptic : imapotato: it wants over 9000
[2017-01-04 18:29:27] imapotato : $115 premium on quarterlies lol
[2017-01-04 18:29:39] imapotato : and only 0.375% funding on perp swap
[2017-01-04 18:30:09] BitMEX_Greg : lockhedge: The calculations are correct
[2017-01-04 18:30:18] Apocalyptic : BitMEX_Greg: why not just uncap the funding rate ?
[2017-01-04 18:30:38] BitMEX_Greg : Apocalyptic: Because if it goes above the initial margin you wouldn't be able to open a position
[2017-01-04 18:30:40] rowrow : Apocalyptic: 100x leveragers would get wrecked instantly when funding came
[2017-01-04 18:31:04] trestres : it would be great to communicate the change of funding rate and max leverage before next period
[2017-01-04 18:31:22] BitMEX_Greg : trestres: We will provide ample communication if we indeed do this
[2017-01-04 18:32:01] imapotato : how many minutes until ATH on finex?
[2017-01-04 18:32:26] Apocalyptic : BitMEX_Greg: makes sense, but that would just restrict high leverage entries temporarily
[2017-01-04 18:33:10] Apocalyptic : as it will self-correct eventually, not a lot of longs can handle 5% or so, they'll have to close
[2017-01-04 18:34:06] rowrow : Apocalyptic: the idea is to keep this exchange price in line with other exchange prices, so to incentivize longs/shorts accordingl
[2017-01-04 18:34:09] rowrow : y
[2017-01-04 18:34:30] BTCDJS : Looks like china wants to hit 9500
[2017-01-04 18:34:41] jung1 : NOPE we are trend setters here and bitcoin price just follow our price
[2017-01-04 18:34:43] imapotato : Looks like it will. Soon.
[2017-01-04 18:34:46] jung1 : deal with this
[2017-01-04 18:34:46] CaptainDean : What is the ATH in Us dollard ? 1300 ?
[2017-01-04 18:34:52] rowrow : like 1170
[2017-01-04 18:34:57] Apocalyptic : rowrow: uncapping would do just that
[2017-01-04 18:35:31] rowrow : Apocalyptic: ah, thought your last bit was supposed to be a counter-point, my mistake
[2017-01-04 18:35:33] Apocalyptic : a crazy high funding will make longs close their position, bringing swap closer to mark
[2017-01-04 18:35:54] Apocalyptic : it just has that small caveat for the high leverage entry
[2017-01-04 18:36:18] j8 : USDCNH 6.88, whats goin on in this crazy world
[2017-01-04 18:36:49] jung1 : whats your bets on eth?
[2017-01-04 18:37:51] justinlooking : jung1: long and still wrong

[2017-01-04 18:39:34] sleger : about 35k total
[2017-01-04 18:39:37] rowrow : watching markets is bad for my sanity, you turn for 30 seconds and the price is off by $12 again
[2017-01-04 18:39:38] MikeHunt : jung1: this could go up to 60-80k
[2017-01-04 18:39:54] cookielito : MikeHunt: WAtch it bo to 50l
[2017-01-04 18:39:56] Apocalyptic : sleger: I'm sorry to hear that
[2017-01-04 18:40:19] sleger : Apocalyptic: you think it's not enough ?
[2017-01-04 18:40:22] sleger : maybe should buy more...
[2017-01-04 18:40:32] Apocalyptic : heh, knock yourself out
[2017-01-04 18:40:59] Apocalyptic : I never really got the hype behind it
[2017-01-04 18:41:03] sleger : 81$ premium china
[2017-01-04 18:41:05] cookielito : chinks are probably gonna dump hard

[2017-01-04 18:54:30] anonymous789 : this is a very interesting situation, back in 2013 people couldn't even withdraw their bitcoin from mtgox and there was that fake rally to ATH. This shit is legit
[2017-01-04 18:54:38] MikeHunt : moo: yup, upto 80k height so dont short too early
[2017-01-04 18:54:44] MikeHunt : moo: just hedge
[2017-01-04 18:55:24] jung1 : anonymous789: +1 and market is much more bigger, much more local exchanges, much more bigger investors
[2017-01-04 18:55:49] jung1 : but still was better around $500
[2017-01-04 18:55:56] anonymous789 : jung1: when this goes past ATH, the rise could be completely unpredictable
[2017-01-04 18:56:02] moo : whre do u get 80k nonsense from

[2017-01-04 18:57:32] jung1 : but you know, actually a lot of media post and write stuff about bitcoin so same could be dump soon if we will have enough media attention
[2017-01-04 18:57:58] anonymous789 : i don't see a dump until next week
[2017-01-04 18:58:02] jung1 : I think we are still not ready for mass adoption
[2017-01-04 18:58:32] BTCDJS : yeah but if you divide it by 2 and take 10% off for discrepancies and variables you come out with a different answer
[2017-01-04 18:58:55] MikeHunt : jung1: why not? every1 has a smartphone
[2017-01-04 18:59:11] MikeHunt : jung1: you can buy with a credit card on most exchanges

[2017-01-04 18:59:21] BTCDJS : because its not user friendly
