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.

[2017-03-19 21:02:58] sleger : i couldnt live on 100k but that doesnt mean anything
[2017-03-19 21:03:15] sleger : cause the rent is more
[2017-03-19 21:03:17] sleger : per year
[2017-03-19 21:03:20] ross : I misunderstood what you meant
[2017-03-19 21:09:35] aethlios : if you have 1 million capital you can live a nice life with 7% per year trading and investing (consume half, and half add to capital for inflation). But you need finance and trading knowledge + 5 to 10 years of experience.
[2017-03-19 21:10:07] premium_freak : I reckon you need a few million
[2017-03-19 21:10:29] sleger : aethlios: on 70k per year ? no way
[2017-03-19 21:10:45] sleger : consume 35k you actually meant, NO way
[2017-03-19 21:11:35] aethlios : sleger: here in my country is fine, only 3% of working people earn above 1,500 eur per month.
[2017-03-19 21:11:59] sleger : nice living in athens you need at least 60k of consumption
[2017-03-19 21:12:34] sleger : less if you earn your house in kyfissia
[2017-03-19 21:14:06] premium_freak : I'm at 0.98x leverage, but I have 4 bars on my ADL indicator
[2017-03-19 21:14:13] premium_freak : seems kind of odd to me
[2017-03-19 21:15:03] sleger : dont worry, ive seen <1 leverage and <0 pnl and 5 lights...
[2017-03-19 21:15:29] premium_freak : okay, so I don't have to worry yet?
[2017-03-19 21:16:10] sleger : no only if the market moves...
[2017-03-19 21:16:38] premium_freak : if anything, it probably will go down again
[2017-03-19 21:16:40] premium_freak : :p
[2017-03-19 21:16:54] aethlios : my plan is to work less. this year i will stop working (=trading) three months in summer, and from next year won't work from 1 May since 30 Sept. (5 months). and consume 2,500 to 3,500 per month. so with extra earned money i buy free time and not more expensive depreciable assets (cars, houses etc.)
[2017-03-19 21:16:58] cmwprice : sleger: Where do you think bitcoin is going?
[2017-03-19 21:17:42] sleger : which bitcoin ?
[2017-03-19 21:18:08] cmwprice : Come on. hard fork isn't happening in the next week
[2017-03-19 21:19:50] KyllingLolsson : Eth looking really good! More money flowing. Btc fork, perhaps not next week but sooner or later, ppl are migrating
[2017-03-19 21:20:19] cmwprice : KyllingLolsson: So where do you think price will head this week?
[2017-03-19 21:20:22] sleger : who said to go all in 6 months ago ? <==
[2017-03-19 21:20:55] premium_freak : I bought ETH at the IPO and then sold everything at 1.5 USD :(
[2017-03-19 21:21:25] KyllingLolsson : cmwprice: up a bit... 1080 or 1130
[2017-03-19 21:21:29] premium_freak : and even today I don't really see the point of ETH
[2017-03-19 21:21:46] premium_freak : does anyone use ETH for anything serious?
[2017-03-19 21:22:01] cmwprice : KyllingLolsson: Cool, and then down?
[2017-03-19 21:22:06] aethlios : sleger: eth technically was a diving ship when you were accumulating, you took a big gamble believing on fundamentals .
[2017-03-19 21:22:25] sleger : its called a trade, not a gamble
[2017-03-19 21:22:33] KyllingLolsson : premium_freak: look at this vid. www.youtube.com/watch?v=K27ng1ZBWIw
[2017-03-19 21:23:21] KyllingLolsson : cmwprice: think so, but always need to adjust theory to what happens in the moment
[2017-03-19 21:24:26] aethlios : maybe btc topped here, won't let us short higher.
[2017-03-19 21:25:27] aethlios : i will open a small 50 btc short.
[2017-03-19 21:25:41] ThruTheFloor : "small"
[2017-03-19 21:25:49] ThruTheFloor : OK, mr. moneybags
[2017-03-19 21:26:02] KyllingLolsson : Lol
[2017-03-19 21:26:30] aethlios : okcoin biweekly has a nice 10 usd premium above index.
[2017-03-19 21:26:44] KyllingLolsson : Give me some @aethlios
[2017-03-19 21:27:32] KyllingLolsson : cmwprice: oops. Price looking bad btc... ?
[2017-03-19 21:27:35] aethlios : next leg could be to 855 or 755, those are the supports.
[2017-03-19 21:28:03] ThruTheFloor : aethlios: Nah, this is temporary to 1020 or so, I still think we're gonna see 1100 before we continue down
[2017-03-19 21:28:12] cmwprice : KyllingLolsson: Its looking bad now?

[2017-03-19 21:38:46] aethlios : opened 1051 average 50 btc short okcoin biweekly.
[2017-03-19 21:39:08] lev_ : Anyone nice to help me with some basic questions on trading in BitMex?
[2017-03-19 21:39:29] aethlios : https://www.tradingview.com/x/VUJ6tNMB/ 835-850 target, maybe 775 over extended panic dump. panic below ema200 882
[2017-03-19 21:40:01] j8 : aethlios: funny how okc futures are more bullish than here (XBT and XBC)
[2017-03-19 21:40:47] ThruTheFloor : If BTC is about to drop, is it a good idea to long ETH? The inverse relationship still applies or not anymore?
[2017-03-19 21:41:00] lev_ : How do I know the interest rate I pay on a regular margin position?
[2017-03-19 21:41:39] aethlios : j8: because 50% their index is okcoin.cn, huobi, btcc and those coins are less volatile now because of withdraw ban.
[2017-03-19 21:42:40] Freewizard : How high are we going
[2017-03-19 21:42:42] j8 : thats why i mentioned XBC series here, which have also been a bit lower
[2017-03-19 21:42:47] aethlios : Ahhere: https://www.tradingview.com/x/VUJ6tNMB/
[2017-03-19 21:42:48] premium_freak : lev_: afaik you only pay interest on the swap, but not on the futures

[2017-03-19 21:48:55] lev_ : aethlios: Just to make sure, 0.1362% for only 8 hours currently?
[2017-03-19 21:49:19] sleger : yes
[2017-03-19 21:49:30] premium_freak : wow, that's a lot
[2017-03-19 21:49:32] sleger : was 0.37% past 8 hours
[2017-03-19 21:49:36] aethlios : lev_: yes, and place the cursor on the rate and saya predicted funding for the next 8 hours.
[2017-03-19 21:49:37] sleger : premium_freak: it is

[2017-03-19 21:50:41] cryptoyolo : rapidtrades: u still bearish? i mean... we basically saw a tripple bottom at 940
[2017-03-19 21:51:20] DorianWhack-A-Moto : read vinny linghams latest tweets and blog. big money dumping btc
[2017-03-19 21:51:26] sleger : it must be really weak then if one rejection wasnt enough ? @cryptoyolo
[2017-03-19 21:51:39] cryptoyolo : sleger: u got a point
[2017-03-19 21:51:56] sleger : cryptoyolo: my point was just that comment last yours can be taken both ways
[2017-03-19 21:52:00] sleger : so they're useless
[2017-03-19 21:52:02] Sultan Pepper : cryptoyolo: does he?
[2017-03-19 21:52:07] sleger : just like TA in general
[2017-03-19 21:52:08] premium_freak : I'd like to short some DASH, but the 7 day settlement seems kind of useless to me.. I'd like to short it for at least a month
[2017-03-19 21:52:31] cryptoyolo : sleger: usually when i see a tripple i consider it to be strong actually
[2017-03-19 21:52:33] sleger : premium_freak: go to polo then
[2017-03-19 21:52:49] DorianWhack-A-Moto : premium_freak: dont short alts now.
[2017-03-19 21:52:58] sleger : cryptoyolo: when I start to see stuff on a chart, I turn off my computer and go to bed

[2017-03-19 21:56:30] premium_freak : sleger: generally I agree with what you're saying about TA, but there's one simple set up that keeps making money for me in btc
[2017-03-19 21:57:06] sleger : premium_freak: I'd bet its not purely based on TA directly or TA indirectly uses WHY it works
[2017-03-19 21:57:26] lopol : Why my available balance is stuck lower when i first changed risk limit to 500 and then back to 100?
[2017-03-19 21:57:46] premium_freak : yup, probably... but it doesn't matter for me :p
[2017-03-19 21:57:47] Sultan Pepper : sleger: i do feel like fundamentals and psychology reveal themselves in a chart, and support/resistance surely isn't too out there. But TA seems a bit laggy most of the tome
[2017-03-19 21:57:48] lopol : It was much higer before i changed it and changed it back
[2017-03-19 21:58:07] sleger : Sultan Pepper: TA is an indirect use/representation of those yes
[2017-03-19 21:58:12] sleger : sometimes
[2017-03-19 21:58:16] rapidtrades : sleger trades on TA just doesn't call it that cos he wants to feel speshul
[2017-03-19 21:59:05] aethlios : BU ABOVE 40% hash rate, maybe that's why the dump.

[2017-03-19 21:59:47] sleger : unlimited facts matter
[2017-03-19 22:00:04] sleger : ust BUY the damn ETH
[2017-03-19 22:01:17] aethlios : sleger: we eth is a hedge to btc?? failure of btc doesn't mean success of eth.
[2017-03-19 22:01:34] rapidtrades : aethlios: its been at 40% all day
[2017-03-19 22:01:44] sleger : eth doesnt give a greek yogurt about btc success or not

[2017-03-19 22:02:11] rapidtrades : i think ppl are trusting the new finex market and think fork will not be so bad
[2017-03-19 22:02:27] hmmmYea : rapidtrades: the finex mkt is deceptive...
[2017-03-19 22:02:40] hmmmYea : rapidtrades: wait actually.. i reread what you wrote
[2017-03-19 22:02:45] hmmmYea : rapidtrades: i agree
[2017-03-19 22:02:53] hmmmYea : lol
[2017-03-19 22:03:19] rapidtrades : they're wrong tho cos just like with ETF, its not giving the correct odds
[2017-03-19 22:03:59] hmmmYea : rapidtrades: in what way?
[2017-03-19 22:04:58] aethlios : rapidtrades: prices on finex are based on hash rate for each coin, as BU hash rate goes up then bcu price will go up, with 50%-50% has prices will be the same.
[2017-03-19 22:05:23] abbey : expect btc crash hard soon

[2017-03-19 22:06:12] rapidtrades : look at current prices 789 or core, that can't be the bitcoin price post fork, its way too high

[2017-03-19 22:06:18] abbey : it looks like it, imo
[2017-03-19 22:06:26] rapidtrades : the fork scenarioes are too optimistic, both of them
[2017-03-19 22:07:26] aethlios : rapidtrades: don't you get it?? there is an arb in finex. you can exchange 1 bcc+1 bcu with 1 btc NOW, so prices there are irrelevant with fork.
[2017-03-19 22:07:31] Ahhere : abbey: I'm short and sold much btc which is rare
[2017-03-19 22:08:23] abbey : Ahhere: same, except i got rekt hard
[2017-03-19 22:08:45] DorianWhack-A-Moto : im not going full vinny and selling all my coldstorage, but taking as much profit as i can while price is over 1000

[2017-03-20 00:28:24] BitMEX_Sam : Testnet hashrate is very low so it's easy for someone with a few old ASICs to cause some havoc
[2017-03-20 00:28:55] BitMEX_Sam : In other words, nothing to see here.
[2017-03-20 00:29:29] hmmmYea : BitMEX_Sam: any news on the fate of the index linked to XBTM17 in the event of a hard ford?
[2017-03-20 00:29:31] hmmmYea : fork
[2017-03-20 00:30:58] BitMEX_Sam : None yet - we will provide clarity on this soon.
[2017-03-20 00:31:03] hmmmYea : ok ty
[2017-03-20 00:32:14] aethlios : BitMEX_Sam: Sam also please clarify in the announcement if we will receive bitcoin unlimited for our BTC deposited here.
[2017-03-20 00:35:29] Todd : hi, wanted to try the testnet.bitMex.com sandbox... how do I fund the account with testnet Bitcoin
[2017-03-20 00:36:59] BitMEX_Sam : aethlios: Will do.
[2017-03-20 00:37:11] BitMEX_Sam : Todd: At the deposit page, you can receive Testnet bitcoin from any of the listed faucets.
[2017-03-20 00:39:22] Todd : oh, i see, thank you! :-)

[2017-03-20 00:47:29] datboiyuan : is it just me or are people way overreacting to this hard fork talk

[2017-03-20 00:47:57] Winklevoss : datboiyuan: it could have serious implications, have you not considered?
[2017-03-20 00:48:08] datboiyuan : yes I've considered
[2017-03-20 00:48:23] datboiyuan : first, I don't think it's likely, and in the long run I don't think the price will be affected much
[2017-03-20 00:48:51] Winklevoss : datboiyuan: i agree it is not so likely, why do you think the price will be unaffected much?
[2017-03-20 00:52:37] datboiyuan : I think in the short term we'll see some fear and some competition
[2017-03-20 00:53:10] datboiyuan : but over time, I think the better product will be obvious and we'll just have another alt coin
[2017-03-20 00:53:38] datboiyuan : that'll be rebranded and may be what some people prefer, but bitcoin will always be bitcoin

[2017-03-20 01:06:49] aguia7 : Everyone, enjoy. A lot of people are going to start buying bitcoin, taking advantage of what became cheap. And that will raise the price. Independent of the news. Who buys bitcoins, does not read news, only buys. Investors, and traders like us who keep selling all the time.

[2017-03-20 02:37:57] j8 : well it has to price in the value of the coin post fork, as well as the probability that the fork even happens
[2017-03-20 02:38:18] startChat : BEFORE decm 31
[2017-03-20 02:38:19] j8 : if fork doesn't happen BCU is worth zero
[2017-03-20 02:38:52] j8 : yes it could happen in january, or it could be a different fork that's not BU
[2017-03-20 02:38:55] Farzad : true, but if fork happens, I guarantee BCU will worth more than BCC
[2017-03-20 02:39:17] j8 : but then what probability do you assign to it happening

[2017-03-20 02:41:13] j8 : Farzad: ok well then i guess the market disagrees
[2017-03-20 02:42:10] Farzad : jose: after fork BTC will lose majority of its hash power while, while difficulty doesnt change, so you will have very long confirmation times until difficulty adjusts again, it will be unusable for a long time.
[2017-03-20 02:42:20] j8 : there are lots of ways BCU can settle at zero even if you think a fork is likely
[2017-03-20 02:43:08] Farzad : or BTC should hard fork too :D
[2017-03-20 02:43:48] Farzad : BCU is gaining ground fast.
[2017-03-20 02:44:18] Farzad : if it surpasses 50% hash power, more miners will join BCU
[2017-03-20 02:45:30] DorianWhack-A-Moto : if bitcoin forks you end up with coins on both chains anyway. no point buying bcu if you already hold decent amount of btc. if no fork you lose your btu.

[2017-03-20 02:47:22] j8 : yes
[2017-03-20 02:47:33] j8 : or even if there is a fork that isn't BU
[2017-03-20 02:47:53] j8 : or if there is a BU fork but it has any sort of technical problems
[2017-03-20 02:48:20] DorianWhack-A-Moto : Seems cheap and looks like an easy way to make money on the surface but there is always a catch, isnt there.
[2017-03-20 02:48:23] Farzad : DorianWhack-A-Moto: if a fork happens, the price will be split between bcc and bcu, so u will not gain anything from fork.
[2017-03-20 02:49:25] Farzad : DorianWhack-A-Moto: what is the easy way to make money ? buy bcc ? :D
[2017-03-20 02:49:53] DorianWhack-A-Moto : yeah stock up on cheap bcc...but i guess the catch is if fork happens it will be cheaper anyway
[2017-03-20 02:50:08] j8 : easy 20%+
[2017-03-20 02:50:21] DorianWhack-A-Moto : but btc price will be in the toilet
[2017-03-20 02:50:29] DorianWhack-A-Moto : so you've actually bought expensive btc
[2017-03-20 02:50:51] DorianWhack-A-Moto : unless segwit happens and no fork, then it works well
[2017-03-20 02:51:01] Farzad : Bitcoin Unlimited blocks: 348 ( 34.8% )
[2017-03-20 02:51:03] j8 : you short btc while buying bcc
[2017-03-20 02:51:45] Farzad : 16% more to hard fork :D
[2017-03-20 02:52:12] j8 : no, if they try to do it at 51% they are shooting themselves in the foot, seriously
[2017-03-20 02:52:27] DorianWhack-A-Moto : i thought 80% was needed?
[2017-03-20 02:52:38] Farzad : I agree, they wont do it @51%. it is dangerous.
[2017-03-20 02:52:47] datboiyuan : There is no threshold
[2017-03-20 02:53:01] Farzad : they can do it @51%
[2017-03-20 02:53:02] datboiyuan : theybcould do it now
[2017-03-20 02:53:17] datboiyuan : it was that high yesterday
[2017-03-20 02:53:22] j8 : indeed, someone already mined a block > 1 mb
[2017-03-20 02:53:29] datboiyuan : HF will not happen
[2017-03-20 02:53:33] j8 : by accident though
[2017-03-20 02:53:42] datboiyuan : yeah cause of shitty code
[2017-03-20 02:53:56] Farzad : datboiyuan: if u are sure, u can buy some cheap BTC @ $700 right now :D

[2017-03-20 02:57:13] DorianWhack-A-Moto : yeah i think they may try and HF soon. future of bitcoin looks bleak short term

[2017-03-20 02:57:56] Farzad : They wont try to HF before they have enough hash power
[2017-03-20 02:58:07] Farzad : or it would be a suicide
[2017-03-20 02:58:13] Farzad : they are not stupid
[2017-03-20 02:58:20] datboiyuan : Even 80% won't be enough
[2017-03-20 02:58:23] datboiyuan : they are stupid !
[2017-03-20 02:58:31] Farzad : datboiyuan: why isnt 80% enough ?
[2017-03-20 02:58:59] datboiyuan : in theory it is, sure but how long can they mine empty blocks and drive the price down?
[2017-03-20 02:59:03] DorianWhack-A-Moto : i think HF will take us by surprise. there is a lot of politics and sneaky maneuvering happening. we wont know true hash power until it happens
[2017-03-20 02:59:07] j8 : well any amount of hashpower is not enough if they're creating a coin that no one wants
[2017-03-20 02:59:10] datboiyuan : theyll be hemorraging returns

[2017-03-20 03:00:38] micmix : another set of coins to trade
[2017-03-20 03:00:39] Farzad : no, u didnt get the point, if BTC loses majority of its hash power while difficulty is adjusted for a much higher hash rate, the delay between mined blocks will be huge.
[2017-03-20 03:01:18] Farzad : meaning no transactions can be confirmed
[2017-03-20 03:01:26] Farzad : and fees will soar to the moon !

[2017-03-20 03:01:46] micmix : Farzad: yeah, it's a big problem. I think bitcoin core will need emergency hard fork for difficulty adjustment or/and PoW change
[2017-03-20 03:01:59] j8 : yep
