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.

[2017-03-07 01:12:29] Apocalyptic : worth a shot [2017-03-07 01:12:30] micmix : sleger: imho they should have decreased leverage to 50x long time ago. 100x is insane with current volatility but they don't want to lose on fees [2017-03-07 01:12:36] sleger : I said earlier : lots of buy on eth on bitmex (was true) and nothing [2017-03-07 01:12:44] Apocalyptic : micmix: can't agree more [2017-03-07 01:12:47] sleger : micmix: yes but then no position will win [2017-03-07 01:12:54] sleger : on etf decision, immediate ADL [2017-03-07 01:12:56] Apocalyptic : but even 50x for the announcement is better than nothing at all [2017-03-07 01:13:07] sleger : so you cant even gamble, trade or hedge .... [2017-03-07 01:13:12] sleger : more than maybe 50$ move [2017-03-07 01:13:30] micmix : 100x is good marketing though, and marketing beats everything [2017-03-07 01:13:41] sleger : you can have 100x but not this week [2017-03-07 01:13:45] micmix : I know, everyone will be adled here [2017-03-07 01:13:56] lockhedge : imho 50x or 20x wouldn't change a lot in extreme scenarios, only concentrate liqs at a closer price [2017-03-07 01:14:15] sleger : lockhedge: maintenance margin would be extremely different are you crazy ???? [2017-03-07 01:14:21] sleger : right now it is 0.5% !!!!
