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.

[2017-02-27 07:41:22] BitMEX_John : GerryHYH: no it's not 100x, cross is very different because you are putting your entire available balance up as margin [2017-02-27 07:41:32] BitMEX_John : GerryHYH: it's set dynamically as you buy and sell contracts [2017-02-27 07:41:47] BitMEX_John : GerryHYH: it also factors in all your positions across different contracts [2017-02-27 07:42:50] GerryHYH : I see I see, yes I get ya [2017-02-27 07:44:15] BitMEX_John : GerryHYH: we also have a page here which goes into more detail - https://www.bitmex.com/app/isolatedMargin [2017-02-27 07:44:16] GerryHYH : let's say I have 1 BTC in BitMEX [2017-02-27 07:44:24] GerryHYH : ahh ok, I read that first, thanks John [2017-02-27 07:44:44] BitMEX_John : GerryHYH: no dramas, if you still need more help after that feel free to ask more questions :) [2017-02-27 07:46:11] Ugly_Old_Goat : Woo!

[2017-02-27 07:52:59] elmorte : yeah, they do a hard fork at the end [2017-02-27 07:54:08] .. : I switched it off after a while, Ver keeps ranting about "new people" as if all those Core developers joined bitcoin last year lol, and Tone isn't exactly saying the best arguments either [2017-02-27 07:54:39] longbydefault : goat: i just watched that too [2017-02-27 07:54:42] longbydefault : goat: what are your thoughts? [2017-02-27 07:54:58] longbydefault : i think ver won... [2017-02-27 08:03:45] Ugly_Old_Goat : longbydefault: I thought Tone won on substance, Ver on passion points [2017-02-27 08:04:33] Ugly_Old_Goat : longbydefault: I am in Acapulco and will be talking with both tomorrow. [2017-02-27 08:06:43] Ugly_Old_Goat : longbydefault: Personally I believe Roger Ver is very mistaken. I only wish Tone would have nailed him on exactly what is wrong with segwit. Because Ver admits there is nothing wrong with it. [2017-02-27 08:09:29] Ugly_Old_Goat : longbydefault: Also, Ver is is hardly censored. He is simply left out on one forum no one pays much attention too. That is not censorship. Again, without mentioning a hardfork, bitcoin unlimited, or his desire for large blocks what is wrong with segwit? [2017-02-27 08:10:18] Ugly_Old_Goat : When nailed Ver admits nothing is wrong with it [2017-02-27 08:11:38] longbydefault : Ugly_Old_Goat: i think what ver is saying is that segwit is a temporary solution... it doesn't fix the transaction cost issue... anyway... please tell us more when you get back from acapulco [2017-02-27 08:12:06] longbydefault : Ugly_Old_Goat: i just don't like that ver is 'hated' by many in the forums... he seems like he cares for bitcoin [2017-02-27 08:12:19] longbydefault : Ugly_Old_Goat: you think a hard fork is inevitable? [2017-02-27 08:12:59] longbydefault : Ugly_Old_Goat: what is wrong with BU? yeah that wasn't addressed [2017-02-27 08:14:09] Ugly_Old_Goat : longbydefault: Yes, no argument temporary and proven on testnet and safe [2017-02-27 08:16:09] Ugly_Old_Goat : Yes, Ver is passionate and passionately mistaken [2017-02-27 08:16:36] Ugly_Old_Goat : He is not hated, but he his exasperating many [2017-02-27 08:17:23] Ugly_Old_Goat : No, hardfork not inevitable. There are off chain solutions. I am working on one. [2017-02-27 08:17:33] longbydefault : why is he mistaken? can you link to an article for my understanding... [2017-02-27 08:18:09] longbydefault : Ugly_Old_Goat: ok great... off chain solutions... i'm ok with that too... but what if lightning exists but there are 100$ transaction fees? [2017-02-27 08:20:01] longbydefault : i just want to understand because segwit fanatics often attack ver personally and do not criticise BU as an idea... [2017-02-27 08:20:29] longbydefault : Ugly_Old_Goat: by the way i already finished, art of execution... thanks for that [2017-02-27 08:21:09] zanza : Blockstream Core are pretty corrupt [2017-02-27 08:21:20] zanza : they have threatened miners with POW algorithm change [2017-02-27 08:21:27] .. : Blockstream != Core [2017-02-27 08:21:33] zanza : lol ^ ok [2017-02-27 08:21:41] zanza : Blockstream controls Core [2017-02-27 08:21:46] jayesh : If HF happens, BU will just be an Altcoin like every other forks that BTC had.. [2017-02-27 08:21:48] zanza : but yes they may be differenct [2017-02-27 08:22:18] .. : what does "control" even mean, did you ever go to their github or you dont know what github is? [2017-02-27 08:22:25] zanza : Blockstream is now saying that "mining cartel can't be trusted" [2017-02-27 08:22:39] zanza : and miners shouldn't control Bitcoin version adoption [2017-02-27 08:22:47] zanza : because they aren't supporting SegWit now [2017-02-27 08:22:57] zanza : so now they think it should be "Nodes" [2017-02-27 08:23:10] zanza : that control software and not miners [2017-02-27 08:23:26] Farzad : WOW ! dump really happened !?

When on godl standard people did not use the gold in commerce it was the standard in commerce. Gold kept banks honest.
