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.

<< >> English 中文 Русский 한국어 日本語 Español Français [2017-03-18 16:59:40] Xeth : To be honest, as long as the maximum ammount of bitcoins will not change it's of no real consequence. [2017-03-18 17:00:04] Xeth : However, I dislike the idea of BTU's team [2017-03-18 17:00:06] arbitrage101 : someone going to enter a world of hurt [2017-03-18 17:00:10] arbitrage101 : shorting zec [2017-03-18 17:00:10] mdsmm : core will function as a safe haven [2017-03-18 17:00:23] arbitrage101 : paying 3.5% daily borrowing fee [2017-03-18 17:01:09] hmmmYea : arbitrage101: what exchange? [2017-03-18 17:01:13] laisee : mdsmm: do you really think Core behvior since 2015 shows them to be "safe" [2017-03-18 17:01:21] arbitrage101 : hmmmYea: finex [2017-03-18 17:01:24] Tetsuo : USD is SAFE [2017-03-18 17:01:27] hmmmYea : arbitrage101: ty [2017-03-18 17:01:45] CrazyAlfy : Unfortunately many people see BTU as an attack, the reality is simply people expressing their individual wishes about what Bitcoin should become. These sorts of situations will become more common as reference clients reduce in market share. [2017-03-18 17:01:55] laisee : USD(Obana/Yellen) == SAFE. USD(Trump/??) == ??? [2017-03-18 17:02:17] juster : CrazyAlfy: attempt at control of something that is uncontrolable [2017-03-18 17:02:23] emcor : guys [2017-03-18 17:02:28] emcor : anyone know a blonde young girl? [2017-03-18 17:02:33] emcor : i pay for it [2017-03-18 17:02:35] laisee : yup. thats why a consensus signalling tool used by BU is great idea. [2017-03-18 17:02:41] mdsmm : /block emcor [2017-03-18 17:02:48] mdsmm : wish I was an admin [2017-03-18 17:02:51] mdsmm : hahaha [2017-03-18 17:02:55] CrazyAlfy : juster: No, it's not an attempt at anything. It's simply people expressing wishes. [2017-03-18 17:03:01] Xeth : USD/Trump is still a business man that already has a ton of money, even if not as much as he says [2017-03-18 17:03:02] kryptopojken : will bitmex launch a BTU token? [2017-03-18 17:03:18] hmmmYea : CrazyAlfy: i think its just an economic disagreement... miner want the network to be clogged to raise fees... users (more accurately, the businesses who count users as clients) think that is untenable. [2017-03-18 17:03:37] laisee : emcor: www.blondegirls4losers.com [2017-03-18 17:03:57] emcor : laisee: dude i made more cash than you in 1 year this week [2017-03-18 17:04:01] emcor : laisee: stfu [2017-03-18 17:04:35] mdsmm : emcor: it's not about cash [2017-03-18 17:04:44] emcor : yh [2017-03-18 17:04:48] Xeth : @ laisee, you should correct yourself with : @emcor www.blondegirls4loserswithcash.com [2017-03-18 17:04:50] laisee : emcor: u seem like an online loser. therefore u are. [2017-03-18 17:05:21] CrazyAlfy : hmmmYea: I don't think raising fees is the goal of miners. Raising the price is much more profitable and a better long term strategy. Higher fees only drive people to alts. [2017-03-18 17:05:23] laisee : Xeth: the $$$$ goes wthout saying for online losers like @emcor [2017-03-18 17:05:29] PARAFFIN : www.blondeheroingirls4looserswithcash.to [2017-03-18 17:05:42] REKT : Liquidated long on `XBTUSD`: sell 20000 @ 998.48 [2017-03-18 17:05:42] REKT : Liquidated long on `XBTUSD`: sell 410 @ 998.78 [2017-03-18 17:05:42] REKT : Liquidated long on `XBTUSD`: sell 7000 @ 997.10 [2017-03-18 17:05:55] laisee : PARAFFIN: +1 [2017-03-18 17:06:03] PARAFFIN : im so bad boy [2017-03-18 17:06:09] PARAFFIN : laisee: [2017-03-18 17:06:28] Xeth : My only issue is that money should not give you pride. [2017-03-18 17:06:56] laisee : Xeth: all the billionaires I have met don't flaunt it at all. [2017-03-18 17:07:05] hmmmYea : CrazyAlfy: if thats truly their goal, then they have completely failed. failed so badly , you have to conclude that even tho core is good at writing code they do not have the vision necessary for the job [2017-03-18 17:07:21] emcor : laisee: you met probably like 1 billionaire on tv [2017-03-18 17:07:27] laisee : +1 @hmmmYea [2017-03-18 17:07:49] Xeth : I haven't met bilionaires, just millionaires, quite honestly I don't envy them. [2017-03-18 17:07:54] startChat : https://twitter.com/mpmcsweeney/status/843137227190386688 [2017-03-18 17:07:57] laisee : at least try to be funny @emcor. you're ;ame and boastful. [2017-03-18 17:08:04] laisee : ^;ame^lame [2017-03-18 17:08:05] Xeth : Besides cash is volatile, it comes and goes. Today you have it, Tommorow you don't. [2017-03-18 17:08:36] CrazyAlfy : hmmmYea: I think the push for BTU by miners is a push to reduce fees. I wish Core had released a couple of roadmaps, and let people choose. [2017-03-18 17:08:57] startChat : CrazyAlfy: What do you know about the techinclas of bitcoin software? [2017-03-18 17:09:23] laisee : CrazyAlfy: they released a roadmap and offeered a choice Segwit which is less popular than BU by miles. [2017-03-18 17:09:34] mdsmm : My dad knows a billionaire and tbh, if you don't know he's one, you'll never see haha [2017-03-18 17:09:39] laisee : so they failed to sell their vision [2017-03-18 17:09:56] mdsmm : the guy wears cheaper clothes than the average person [2017-03-18 17:10:15] laisee : +1 @mdsmm. [2017-03-18 17:10:21] emcor : mdsmm: + [2017-03-18 17:10:22] Xeth : That's because he's probably smart and doesn't fall for all the fashion crap [2017-03-18 17:10:38] mdsmm : Xeth: agree [2017-03-18 17:10:48] CrazyAlfy : startChat: This isn't a software issue we are debating.. [2017-03-18 17:10:56] Kalman : mdsmm: in venezuelian bolivar many are billionairs [2017-03-18 17:10:57] laisee : when u can buy anything like clothes u don't care about making some statement [2017-03-18 17:11:09] startChat : sorry *concensus network [2017-03-18 17:11:15] mdsmm : Kalman: fuck you got me. [2017-03-18 17:12:05] CrazyAlfy : laisee: Agreed, Core has failed to provide user choices. This is why BTU was born. [2017-03-18 17:12:28] laisee : yup. exactamente. [2017-03-18 17:12:39] startChat : CrazyAlfy: and Classic, and XT [2017-03-18 17:14:22] CrazyAlfy : startChat: BTU is an economic argument about providing choice and taking away central planning over time. [2017-03-18 17:15:39] Apocalyptic : seems like now would be a good time for that 2 hour funding bitmex [2017-03-18 17:15:52] Xeth : Ya, I like how everyone panics over this shit instead of realising that as long as the maximum ammount of btc's that will come into existance doesn't change, bitcoin will not become inflationary [2017-03-18 17:16:23] Xeth : So in the end it will end back up into rising again [2017-03-18 17:16:24] Apocalyptic : Xeth: it's important but not the only thing that matters [2017-03-18 17:16:35] REKT : Liquidated long on `DASH7D`: sell 40 @ 0.105106 [2017-03-18 17:16:42] Xeth : The secondary most important thing is usefulness [2017-03-18 17:16:59] Apocalyptic : everyone being able to bootstrap a fresh full node and sync it in a reasonable time comes to mind [2017-03-18 17:17:47] Xeth : As far as I can tell usefulness has not degraded in either, they both fulfill their end of the bargain. [2017-03-18 17:17:49] j8 : it's easy to make something with finite supply that is worth $0 [2017-03-18 17:18:39] Xeth : Yeah but unlike something you make right now with $0.000000 worth, bitcoin already has a market. [2017-03-18 17:18:41] Xeth : it has shops [2017-03-18 17:18:58] hmmmYea : Xeth: a digital currency that costs more than fiat to transfer when other cryptos offer near zero costs is obsolete [2017-03-18 17:19:28] Xeth : So, it will change when another crypto gets more usefulness on shops/etc. [2017-03-18 17:19:38] hmmmYea : Xeth: the first mover/network effect is alreadt getting eroded. [2017-03-18 17:19:51] j8 : the actual usage of bitcoin for commerce puts a floor on the price, but it's probably like $100 [2017-03-18 17:20:16] j8 : this price is speculation that the market will be much bigger [2017-03-18 17:20:19] Xeth : I sincerely doubt it's 100 tbh, too much power into that stuff comes for it to be just 100 [2017-03-18 17:20:59] j8 : too much power? [2017-03-18 17:21:35] Xeth : Bitcoin as a concept, will change in time. I have yet to see things like games electronics etc taking more interest in another coin than btcs at the moment [2017-03-18 17:22:01] Xeth : aye, too much processing power that costs too if your argument was correct it would become worthless and then the death would come. [2017-03-18 17:22:38] j8 : all those ASICs might have been a bad investment, they don't provide a floor [2017-03-18 17:23:03] laisee : its not sure that POW is sustainable over longer term i.e. fees may not be enough [2017-03-18 17:23:49] j8 : buying miners is just another bullish bet on the price [2017-03-18 17:23:55] j8 : they don't have to be right [2017-03-18 17:25:44] Xeth : I don't think btc can exist at such a low price anymore. Maybe I'm wrong but I just don't see it. [2017-03-18 17:26:17] Tetsuo : wow nice, i exited the ripple pump at the top [2017-03-18 17:26:26] Tetsuo : what a scam [2017-03-18 17:26:50] PARAFFIN : buy LTC [2017-03-18 17:27:12] laisee : Xeth: at 100 BTC would be different but it will survive [2017-03-18 17:27:31] Tetsuo : let´s make BTC Prices fair again! [2017-03-18 17:27:39] Tetsuo : range between 80-120$ [2017-03-18 17:29:10] laisee : $99.95 ... BTC is available for the masses again. ;-) [2017-03-18 17:29:16] Xeth : Maybe, however I'm really curious what will happen to alts once the btcbtu craze blows over that will be interesting. [2017-03-18 17:29:43] Tetsuo : they will crash hard, as always [2017-03-18 17:31:00] Xeth : Unless one of them actually manages to become more useful, eth looks nice in that aspect, seeing more people wanting donations on it lately I don't expect it to fall (as much) [2017-03-18 17:31:22] laisee : maybe. a decent market cap seems to generate its own activity [2017-03-18 17:32:09] laisee : 100BN market cap for all cryptos will defo change a few minds [2017-03-18 17:34:09] Xeth : Either way, bitUSD remains the most stable choice for those who don't like gambling too much [2017-03-18 17:34:52] Xeth : or the other smartcoins [2017-03-18 17:36:16] Nick Leeson : Xeth: most will collapse. Problem is their mining emission rate is very high at current price level. This can't be sustained - there is simply not enough fiat entering the market each day to do so. [2017-03-18 17:37:43] Xeth : Maybe, but it still is an good option if you want to buy stuff as a normal-non-trader and not deal with oh I need to buy a pc putting 1 btc in, shit it fell 200 dollars on my way to the store need to add more btc (simple silly example) [2017-03-18 17:38:02] REKT : Have a bowl of chop-chop suey! [2017-03-18 17:38:02] REKT : Liquidated long on `XBTH17`: sell 4000 @ 990.31 [2017-03-18 17:38:27] Nick Leeson : Xeth: I don't disagree with that. But I thought we were talking price :) [2017-03-18 17:39:13] Xeth : I'm talking usefulness for majority, which bears an influence to the outcome here =)) [2017-03-18 17:41:40] c.l : does anyone knows website to buy bitcoin for a foreigners? (not us) [2017-03-18 17:42:05] Xeth : Talking price? It will go up for a while then down again, next time might be for good, based on the age we live in [2017-03-18 17:42:13] Xeth : (after this period) [2017-03-18 17:42:22] Nick Leeson : Xeth: Yes ok, imo volatility is to some degree a symptom of crypto being young and laughable market caps compared to real world currency or commodities. If Bitcoin marcet cap becomes 200.000.000 in 5-10 years, it would be harder to move it, just because a whale at Poloniex sells. [2017-03-18 17:43:20] Xeth : i don't expect Bitcoin to remain the cryptocurrency which will dominate, we change our computers every 4-6 years because they're old. maybe keep them 10 suffering lower performance on the simplest of things [2017-03-18 17:43:35] Xeth : Technology evolves, so will cryptos [2017-03-18 17:43:55] Xeth : Yet I do believe it's too early at this point to think of that. [2017-03-18 17:43:56] Nick Leeson : Xeth: But right now, it's young, many people are in it for money, and will hence also buy/sell as they see fit. When it matures hopefully people will mainly use to buy stuff ... as money, this would help stabilize it. [2017-03-18 17:44:14] Nick Leeson : Xeth: I just used BTC as example. [2017-03-18 17:44:55] Xeth : True, but at this point, many people are seeing those people use BTC [2017-03-18 17:45:21] Xeth : There's interest in buying it I've seen people buying it for random usage on the internet, games clothes computers beer, etc. [2017-03-18 17:45:49] Xeth : So it's getting out there, next year it will be way more used than this year because of this effect [2017-03-18 17:46:24] Xeth : Then the shopkeepers and other less knowledgeable folk, after getting used to btcs will hear of other alts [2017-03-18 17:46:33] Xeth : Barely at that point, we will talk of change IMO [2017-03-18 17:46:38] dodic : lol software does not = hardware, there is software from 1950 still in use [2017-03-18 17:47:10] Xeth : @dodic Aye, there is, not much to change in a clock software for example. [2017-03-18 17:47:25] Xeth : but atm there is a lot of changing potential to cryptos [2017-03-18 17:47:48] dodic : the only really revolutionary thing to me is eth [2017-03-18 17:48:25] dodic : though it is fundamentally very different than bitcoin [2017-03-18 17:48:53] startChat : dodic: whats the revolution [2017-03-18 17:49:30] Xeth : My only issue with ethereum, does it have max coins or is it infinite? I don't know and can't seem to find an answer. [2017-03-18 17:49:44] dodic : distributed consensus for logic that can be expressed by code [2017-03-18 17:49:46] Apocalyptic : Xeth: there is no coin limit [2017-03-18 17:49:47] Xeth : Idk how it works in the background [2017-03-18 17:49:49] dodic : as a currency eth sucks [2017-03-18 17:49:58] Nick Leeson : Xeth: I hope crypto will be used as money in the future. That was the idea that got me into it :) I think if it is, you are right there will be different coins, but I don't think people will change what they use all the time. It will be a slow process. However I think we will see different crypto for different use cases. Eg. some excel in being anon, some fast, some particularly secure, etc. [2017-03-18 17:50:11] Apocalyptic : last I checked the emission rate had a non-zero limit [2017-03-18 17:50:57] Xeth : I do hope goverments will get the fuck out of money too but that won't happen, it will become just as regulated and I see goverments making their own cryptos [2017-03-18 17:50:57] dodic : eth is kind of a like a weird digital fiat controlled by ethereum foundation [2017-03-18 17:51:17] Xeth : it's a disaster for the ones which desire control over the population [2017-03-18 17:51:31] Nick Leeson : Xeth: I believe ETHs plan is to switch to PoS at some point so infinite but decreasing inflation. [2017-03-18 17:51:54] Xeth : I don't like the idea of a coin that gets generated infinitely [2017-03-18 17:52:10] Xeth : USD gets generated infinitely and it loses it's value every time more debt comes it's fictive. [2017-03-18 17:52:39] Xeth : inflation makes a coin less valuable so everyone prospers less [2017-03-18 17:52:58] Apocalyptic : Xeth: except the producers [2017-03-18 17:53:03] Xeth : So if ETH gets infinite coins, it's a problem for us. the consumers. [2017-03-18 17:53:19] Nick Leeson : Xeth: For me it is not a problem when inflation is decreasing. Std. inflation in society will be higher. This said I don't believe in ETH as a long term case. But they do have so many interesting thing going, I visit daily just because its interesting. [2017-03-18 17:53:27] Apocalyptic : one of the idea behind inflation is that it urges consumers to spend quickly [2017-03-18 17:53:57] Nick Leeson : Xeth: Current ETH emission @ 38$ price is 428 million usd / year [2017-03-18 17:54:59] Nick Leeson : Apocalyptic: True, and ETH really wasn't designed as to be a std. currency, but a token for the Ethereum machine. [2017-03-18 17:55:49] Xeth : I still don't think people should support something that in the end will lose value over time [2017-03-18 17:56:15] Xeth : If we had infinite gold gold would be useless [2017-03-18 17:56:46] Xeth : if we had infinite land, then it would be just as worthless over time [2017-03-18 17:57:30] Xeth : Resources should be limited, just as needs are unlimited in the current system [2017-03-18 17:57:42] Nick Leeson : Gotta go, happy trading guys! [2017-03-18 18:04:34] sleger : I WAS AT ORLY [2017-03-18 18:04:46] Tetsuo : sleger: holy shit [2017-03-18 18:04:56] Tetsuo : are u okay [2017-03-18 18:04:57] sleger : We were held hostages by the french police for 5 hours in a fucking bus driving around [2017-03-18 18:05:19] sleger : at some point enough people started to get agitated and we forced the driver to open the doors and we ran out [2017-03-18 18:06:01] Tetsuo : why did they put you in a bus? [2017-03-18 18:06:04] Tetsuo : wher u suspects? [2017-03-18 18:06:07] Tetsuo : or for your protection [2017-03-18 18:06:07] sleger : In the end, many people did the same and almost everyone, even international flights, ended up being free out, without showing ANY identification at all [2017-03-18 18:06:31] sleger : we were all put in a bus because the situation happened when we were inside the terminal, so they did that to protect us [2017-03-18 18:06:51] sleger : but 4h after the guy was down it became ridiculous, and information we were given kept changing etc etc... [2017-03-18 18:07:37] Apocalyptic : France is getting worse [2017-03-18 18:07:49] Xeth : More terrorism? yay. Thanks America [2017-03-18 18:07:52] sleger : thats been the case for a while [2017-03-18 18:07:57] sleger : (getting worse) [2017-03-18 18:09:17] sleger : that's why we dont need some new left guy to keep the same shit going [2017-03-18 18:10:40] johndoe : only 1 attacker with a gun, right? seems like they really didn't handle this very well. [2017-03-18 18:13:02] sleger : he tried to steal a military AR [2017-03-18 18:13:47] mdsmm : I want a husky [2017-03-18 18:14:06] sleger : and he got shot while trying to get it out of the military girl hands [2017-03-18 18:14:07] REKT : Liquidated short on `DASH7D`: buy 15 @ 0.109965 [2017-03-18 18:14:16] johndoe : yah, then they shot him right away.
