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.

You have access to more than 50 million trollbox posts. This is more than 7 gigabyte of data hosted on a $5 server so please be patient or consider a donation

[2017-03-26 22:54:17] ross : "possible" being the key word here
[2017-03-26 22:54:49] frog : costs for miners increase, difficulty increase returns go down
[2017-03-26 22:56:00] aron : i made an order using post only
[2017-03-26 22:56:07] aron : now i want to sell at market price
[2017-03-26 22:56:15] aron : but im afraid of fees
[2017-03-26 22:56:23] aron : what should i do?
[2017-03-26 22:56:29] frog : fee for service likely to be more sustainable but if they hurt viability of BTC will not be possible and allow other cryptos to get established
[2017-03-26 22:57:09] aron : i make like 1 usd on the trade
[2017-03-26 22:57:14] aron : u guys think not worth?
[2017-03-26 22:57:15] rapidtrades : The exchange has put all Bitcoin withdrawals on hold for at least one week, highlighting the need to protect their users’ funds from potential replay attacks in case of a network split.
[2017-03-26 22:57:19] rapidtrades : wtf
[2017-03-26 22:57:38] aron : rapidtrades what does that mean?
[2017-03-26 22:57:43] aron : cant we just short btc?
[2017-03-26 22:57:53] aron : if we expect network to split
[2017-03-26 22:58:41] datboiyuan : no you'd want to own your btc and not have it on an exchange
[2017-03-26 22:58:58] frog : rapidtrades: which exchange?
[2017-03-26 22:58:58] aron : why is that?
[2017-03-26 22:59:06] aethlios : rapidtrades: which exchange??
[2017-03-26 22:59:13] aron : why would i want to own it if network is going to split?
[2017-03-26 22:59:24] datboiyuan : when your btc is on an exchange, you don't own it, they do bc they control the private keys
[2017-03-26 22:59:44] BitMEX_Sam : aethlios: That's from the article, HitBTC
[2017-03-26 23:00:07] datboiyuan : but Sam promised to send us all BTU in the event of a fork, so we're good
[2017-03-26 23:00:42] aethlios : BitMEX_Sam: Hello Sam, will be a fork 1st june bitcoin classic?? this is a 3rd group?
[2017-03-26 23:00:46] hmmmYea : did anyone else see the hitbtc arb before it disappeared?
[2017-03-26 23:00:57] hmmmYea : so yummmmmmmy

[2017-03-26 23:09:53] tb : wait, in your email you mentioned you were able to replicate
[2017-03-26 23:10:55] aron : why am i unable to buy?
[2017-03-26 23:11:15] aron : it canxels my orders
[2017-03-26 23:11:26] Gr33d : aron: Is your account balance = 0?
[2017-03-26 23:11:30] aron : no
[2017-03-26 23:11:39] aron : i have more than 0.2 btc
[2017-03-26 23:11:50] aron : im buying 100 usd using 10x leverage
[2017-03-26 23:13:04] frog : system automatically saving you from losing money perhaps?
[2017-03-26 23:13:07] aron : lol
[2017-03-26 23:13:21] aron : i guess maybe because i just cleared a 1000 usd order
[2017-03-26 23:16:16] aron : oh if it executes against resting orders it cancels instead

[2017-03-26 23:37:50] Todd : Is it possible to put on a Long position in the Perpetual Swap and a Short position in the futures market at the same time, or, do I need to enter each "leg" separately?

[2017-03-26 23:41:13] aethlios : Todd: you different trades, different and independent products
[2017-03-26 23:41:39] ross : someone go to dash and buy my remaining position at 0.097
[2017-03-26 23:42:24] Todd : ok, gotcha, makes sense, thank u !
[2017-03-26 23:43:57] aethlios : Todd: this is a bear strategy, being hedged and earning funding while june goes in discount.
[2017-03-26 23:48:37] Todd : would I need to "net" my perp swap position to be both hedged on my physical btc and participate in arb trade? Since I can't have two opposing perp swap positions?
[2017-03-27 00:07:20] aethlios : Todd: if you also want to hedge your physical btc is another trade. if market is bear then better hedge with june so you don't pay longs funding. so if you have 10 btc capital and want to arb 10 btc, then you go 20 short june and 10 long swap.
[2017-03-27 00:08:34] aethlios : (10 long swap 10 short june = arb trade), (10 short june is hedge 10 physical btc)

[2017-03-27 00:41:42] KingTuna : I am currently hedged on a 1x short on XBT.. If I was XBTM17 short x 1 , wouldn't this make more sense to avoid paying funding in a bear market? What's the pros vs cons of going with one over the other?
[2017-03-27 00:48:41] aethlios : KingTuna: if market continue bear is better to be short long term (june) because swap will have negative funding. when in bull market best to be short short term to earn funding or short june if premium is very good (let's say 8% for 3 months and you lock it)
[2017-03-27 00:52:31] KingTuna : aethlios: So if I trade short term -Once every couple of days, but like to hedge (protect my fiat total) overnight, as I cannot watch, I may as well then go for June and close out position when I want to use it to trade alt coins?

[2017-03-27 00:55:33] aethlios : KingTuna: i don't get what you mean. you can't hedge unhedge every night, will lose on spread fees. hedge means i want my capital to always be in usd. if you then want to trade btc long or short then you just add new positions.
[2017-03-27 00:56:14] aethlios : also trade alts the same way
[2017-03-27 01:22:44] alejandromasari : it is time for the shorts to get rekt.
[2017-03-27 01:24:13] KingTuna : aethlios: So I have a 1xshort XBT at the moment. if the funding is -0.30% overnight, I have to pay $200 equivalent .. So a fee would be less than the funding for me.. But when i see an opportunity during the day, I'll close my 1 x hedge on all my capital for an alt trade and then back again t 1 x hedge
[2017-03-27 01:24:18] frog : KingTuna: Do you want to hedge the bitcoin in your wallet rather than your trades?
[2017-03-27 01:24:46] KingTuna : frog: that'd be ideal
[2017-03-27 01:25:57] frog : you can't hedge away risk forever but may be useful to hedge until fork resolved
[2017-03-27 01:26:24] aethlios : KingTuna: why to close the hedge in order to trade alts?? can''t doy trade alts with keeping the hedge??
[2017-03-27 01:31:24] frog : If I had enough bitcoins to be concerned I would hedge around 50% ie sell futures and roll to next maturity close to expiry. This would reduce risk, if difficult to cash out
[2017-03-27 01:31:46] KingTuna : aethlios: No coz I have hedged say $45k in contracts (my exact balance) and have 0 available. So I need to close some of my position to get into an alt
[2017-03-27 01:32:55] aethlios : KingTuna: you can use leverage, if you have 50 btc deposited and 1x short then you have 45 btc free margin to trade alts.
[2017-03-27 01:33:40] aethlios : you can hedge here 50 btc and keep 35 btc in a pc wallet and only 15 here.
[2017-03-27 01:34:39] aethlios : use cross leverage
[2017-03-27 01:35:09] aethlios : this will free much capital to trade everything else while keeping the hedge stable

[2017-03-27 01:43:33] KingTuna : aethlios: Great, idea.. I will have a look into that !:) And then I can hedge using June ?
[2017-03-27 01:44:24] aethlios : KingTuna: june is better for long term no cost hedge (no funding).
[2017-03-27 01:47:54] aethlios : KingTuna: also can have half your capital here and half in a wallet at home, so you reduce the risk bitmex defaults, and because of leverage yo ucan hedge 100% your total capital and also trade other pairs.

[2017-03-27 06:18:37] mark121 : btc should be in a secular bull for another 19 years but it could be the end of the first primary
[2017-03-27 06:18:44] arbitrage101 : will be interesting to see what happen in coin price
[2017-03-27 06:18:52] arbitrage101 : on the next financial meltdown
[2017-03-27 06:18:55] aethlios : price expresses available info known and unkonow to the public, so better trust price and not your biased info.
[2017-03-27 06:18:59] mark121 : yep and thats June
[2017-03-27 06:19:51] aethlios : arbitrage101: silver gold coins also.
[2017-03-27 06:19:53] mark121 : yes I am a technical guy, but nevertheless some macro factors like the meltdown wil play a role in the near term
[2017-03-27 06:20:07] mark121 : strong believer in the efficient market hypothesis :p
[2017-03-27 06:21:26] mark121 : prices expresses known info
[2017-03-27 06:22:25] mark121 : unknown is exactly that, unknown -
[2017-03-27 06:22:54] mark121 : (given a fair and honest market)
[2017-03-27 06:23:27] mark121 : (oxymoron)
[2017-03-27 06:23:56] arbitrage101 : doubt you can find any honest market in the world
[2017-03-27 06:23:59] arbitrage101 : or fair
[2017-03-27 06:24:15] mark121 : hence oxymoron :)
[2017-03-27 06:24:44] aethlios : mark121: unknown to the public, known to insiders. RV is an insider, he will now the fork date before us, so he can start dumping on our bids while we happily buy the bargain.
[2017-03-27 06:25:15] arbitrage101 : there is no bitcoin insider
[2017-03-27 06:25:25] arbitrage101 : he is just a gambler like us
[2017-03-27 06:25:26] mark121 : i was saving u the trouble with my comment aethlios
[2017-03-27 06:25:37] arbitrage101 : a better gambler
[2017-03-27 06:25:49] arbitrage101 : doesnt mean he will win all the time
[2017-03-27 06:26:15] mark121 : btc is an extremely manipulated market
[2017-03-27 06:26:26] aethlios : arbitrage101: i think he will make the bet of his life now.
[2017-03-27 06:26:36] arbitrage101 : kind of pointless
[2017-03-27 06:26:42] arbitrage101 : he is already very rich
[2017-03-27 06:26:45] arbitrage101 : settle for life
[2017-03-27 06:26:53] arbitrage101 : who still gambling is beyond me
[2017-03-27 06:26:56] arbitrage101 : why
[2017-03-27 06:26:57] aethlios : a multimillion bet, because he will have to keep btu and dump core.
[2017-03-27 06:26:57] mark121 : thats why i laugh when people think news moves btc on its own merit
[2017-03-27 06:28:04] mark121 : much mor eoften than not, (pboc stuff for example) its just used as an excuse to move the market
[2017-03-27 06:29:34] mark121 : part of me wonders if this fork stuff is all a big fear generator to scoop up even more coins prior to the push beyond 1500
[2017-03-27 06:30:11] mark121 : technically speaking, once these lows should have been the final time we saw 3 digits for years to come
[2017-03-27 06:30:47] mark121 : *remove word once
[2017-03-27 06:30:54] laisee : mark121: there will be an almighty p.u.m.p once hard fork occurs. from 1k to 10k
[2017-03-27 06:31:41] mark121 : thats possible but about equal possibility of coin suicide
[2017-03-27 06:31:56] mark121 : why put your money in a coin that forks when ppl disagree
[2017-03-27 06:31:59] zerozeroOne : How can I check wrecked?
[2017-03-27 06:32:08] laisee : coinicide?
[2017-03-27 06:32:13] mark121 : each time a coin forks you are exposed to twice the risks
[2017-03-27 06:32:19] mark121 : exactly!
[2017-03-27 06:32:43] laisee : ... Bitcoin is dead! And we killed it!
[2017-03-27 06:32:46] REKT : Liquidated short on `XBTUSD`: buy 3890 @ 968.95
[2017-03-27 06:34:59] mark121 : saw someone ask bitmex to give the trollbox "marking"
