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.

[2017-03-04 06:41:43] lockhedge : micmix: i don't think that the SEC will informally give them the advise to withdraw the application this time (the media is watching this process closely probably like none before, there is too much at stake regarding insider trading), so imho a withdrawal became relatively unlikely at this point [2017-03-04 06:42:37] rapidtrades : i don't get that logic [2017-03-04 06:42:42] j8 : arbitrage101: no, i don't want to burn out before the action starts. i have alarms set as always [2017-03-04 06:43:05] shapeshifter : micmix: whats your email?
