countdown till they stop trades for cooldown?

hopefully this week chased out the week hands and we can move on (how many tens of thousands of mtgox accounts in queue?)

whos going to push it over???

bitstamp more btc bid on >400 then asks < 500 

https://bitfinex.com/exchange
"Bitcoin last price: $441.2500"
"Not enough USD reserve on Bitstamp, you cannot buy on Bitstamp at the moment"

when do their deposits make it to bitstamp???

sell to coinbase price @ $440 (minus 1% fee)

the milestone i've been waiting for is passed

1 current block of BTC > a 500 maple/eagle silvers case

bitstamp: "13 minutes   " since last trade..?

you must be new. just watched numbers change more in a few minutes then i ever spent on bitcoin in the first place

all these sells are just resulting in dollars on exchange

are people really trying to get dollars to withdraw? or just trying to sell and buy lower?

keep dropping. ready to trade this case of silver back in for btc at the rate things are going

can we get back onto the path to the moon already

major exchange offline for a day and no big movements at other exchanges  

^

people around me keep pointing out how it is crashing hard... i'm like..it's ~$250 i got it for $5 i wish more of my stock picks would crash this bad

i mean...i wont take out a loan..
but rushing the trade of my silver back into btc (got the silver for ~19 btc...can get 55 btc as of last price i saw)

and im about to do some research into bitfinix leverage

if anyone wants to dump 60btc and not lose to market dept or to stay off the orderbooks i've got 500 1oz canadian maples

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=916601.0

easy 1% using bitfinix margin...
ok now back to cold storage before this becomes an addiction

can someone dump already?

i'm ready to buy on margin 

two at 220,

increasing at each $10 down

im all in... countdown till crash...

anyday now... (all in but could still margin buy on crash which im kind of hoping for...)

woo. got all my margin buy orders down to 199 filled

to the moon plz?

^suspicious low movement..

margin buy orders set all the way down to 175 hope to wake up and see a bunch of buys 

pft not a single bite last night...

well here goes another shot tonight...orders are still up come sell me coins bears

( why trader gods why


wheever i put a margin buy order it gets to within a dollar of it then bounces up...



i guess i need to put in a few $10,000 coin margin orders

orders are canceled gave up.. prepare for a rally

so much good news....time to short?

i mean i dont think i could even be mad if bitcoin went to 0 and wallstreet was a majority owner of bitcoin 

lending to idiots who want to short on bitfinex paying 11% a year interest

hope they use my bitcoin to get the price lower so i can pick up more coins before they get short squeezed out of existence

i trust it for now. but i will say it's not a large portion of my bitcoin.. same amount i had at just-dice for awhile

see you all at moonbase?

someone put some btc up for sale asap! bitfinex and bitstamp books are running out!

went shopping and to the gym and return to this

not sure what exactly my goal here is..usually a holder but felt the need to jump in on margin earlier

someone dump this already...ive got orders to fill 

bitfinex is fun

all positions closed and up 1.505 BTC 0.27 from interest remainder margin trading


never crossed my mind till a week or so back you could margin trade with btc as backing assumed you would need USD

ok bitcoin time to either go to the moon or to $100 so i can leverage moar

keep dumping plz

want moar cheap margin coins

in the voice of McMillan the bitfinex btc lending rates are too damn low

0.012% bid 0.0194% ask

withdrawing out at these rates

probably the safer option compared to listening to all the trolls in here 

funny enough for some reason that was a buy in point i picked as well

 


still wouldn't mind further drops

hmm was going to ask for a source but    602.22   Flash Return Rate (current: 0.0176%)   
was at 4900 coins last i seen so someone(s) sure did borrow a ton of coins recently

couple of nice sized buys on bitfinex 5000 btc shorter buying back?

4 times in 3 days we've bounced off my 50 BTC margin positions breakeven   


can we either crash to $50 or rally already?

10% interest to borrow the USD

i highly believe btc will outpace that

main risk to me is that bitfinex folds

yearly

closer to 12% but still not bad

edit: actually just did the math closer to 9% yearly is what mine is at

i mean if you are not in and out the last year would have been ugly just straight holding

and you have to be sure to have enough btc collateral on deposit to not get margin called / liquidated

and pray bitfinex does not get gox'd



its not quite risk free or more people would be doing it

wonder if it'll stay up (they rarely seem to)

bitfinex wall

that didnt take long to get pulled

almost $2 with 0 bids  

got out at about 240  for a nice 1.15 btc profit - all margin positions closed for now

up 2.5 btc on bitfinex .4 from interest for loaning btc 2.1 from margin buys

as long as they dont pull a gox i am sure liking their site

back in at 228 for 25 btc

something like that 

220 is sure being defended.. huh

so many pathetic trolls here sad they missed the cheap coin days 

put any amount from 0.01 up to 3 BTC in escrow as a bet for this call and i'll match the bet on the opposite side

offer is good for two hours from this post as long as i have a PM from a reputable escrow holder saying you have a bet placed
$260 has to be reached before noon as per google "time in china"

otherwise go troll somewhere else

our friendly 220 wall has advanced to 225

no one seems willing to sell into that wall?

i wish people had to place a bet and or show they had a trade riding on any claims / predictions posted

uhh pretty sure that was a market sell....

wonder if they would just market dump this if it were to be lent to them......

BTC Swaps demand
2   30   0.008%   2513.07   2867.3

keep it coming. getting tired of the low btc lending interest rate :/

whats with the # of trades?

barely enough in 30 minutes to fill bitcoinity

go home bots  you are drunk

(not trolling..like all those complaining about coinbase..i actually like them)

but i'm not seeing any change from launch ?

i'm not denying they are doing good

just wondering what is "rising"

they have had consistent volume since launch..if anything  the last week has been slightly lower

available btc swap offers are drying up and the price is up

seems like an interesting combo. little additional coins for margin shorters

there's almost no coins available for shorting...
0.1% interest a day for ones that are available

since i put up a sale to close part of my margin buy we'll likely never hit it's price of 238 again... with my luck

edit: well that went easier then expected

yay 8 days 1 BTC profit from a margin buy

ohh my bid got taken earlier

back in for a blocks worth on margin @ 235

50 @ $15 profit in a few hours

hmmm to close or not to close

closed at 248

bids in for the way down starting at 246

up 5.7 btc on bitfinex come join the fun taking coins from sellers / shorters  

5th of Jameson in for the night

logged into bitfinex

taking votes on if I submit a margin short or long wall

HMM

I've yet to hold a short position

but 2 vs 0 in this poll makes it tempting


thank god for iOS auto correct

20% interest rates going on bitfinex for USD loans

no one has some unused dollars to lend cheaper?

132.79585631 btc (margin) position is in the positive again

dont ask how i arrived at that number i dont even know (see jameson infused post from other night)

debating how long to keep in this

cashed out 0.2 btc on gyft for 6 months of hulu

bearish!!!!!!!!!!


 

the thing that scares me about this... there is only 16k coins available under 500 on bitfinex

what happens if a cascade happens and starts forcing liquidations?

*raises hand for being part of that

but it was Jameson infused decision making   

jameson was involved in the first 132.79585631 purchase

no alcohol involved in the second purchase

go big or go home

i have 30 days locked in at 0.029% that swap fee is for several days now. less than 1% a month not bad IMO

out at 245 things seem uneasy (which probably means we'll rocket to 5000 before i wake up tomorrow)

bitfinex account stands at +7.1 BTC with all *margin* positions closed

ouch 

too soon?

willing to make that a bet?? I have up to 1 BTC on the NO side of that

looking at swaps it looks like everyone is doubling down today 

back in on margin
150 btc averaged a few pennies over 240

thanks to those who gave me 30 day guaranteed rate USD loans 

I already hold BTC, USD lending rates are slightly under 10% a year

I don't plan on selling (or spending a significant amount of) the BTC at these prices or any price lower than it is

I have enough backing/collateral to prevent a margin call

so why not use some leverage   and try to play the swings in the process


negative. though I should try that again.. it was an easy ~2 BTC profit in and out trade

just reentering the trade at a base price ~$5 lower

all non variable rate btc swaps up to 0.1% daily got swept up

NO btc available for margin selling below 0.1% per day

edit: top of the hour auto lending scripts put ~50 btc up for loan under 0.1 but still very little

bears: keep borrowing btc to short
you have to buy back at some point and the interest will be loved in the mean time

I actually would have never expected that high of a %

you know what would be fun?

everyone lending btc to quit lending it..

shorts would either get forced into major interest rate hikes or to close their shorts

erm do i close this (or partial close) and try and catch a bounce or just let it ride.

coin flip time

yay getting awoken by alarms because of bitcoin (and not for its price)

turns out centos partitions most of your free space to /home

i have a full node running inside a openvz container and it was mounted to /vz

brought the whole server to a halt


now that i'm awake can we get this rally moving again?

i want to sell off some of this margin position to lock in/hope for lower to rebuy

but usd swap is becoming hard to get at decent rates :/


yo troll/bears. go lend your USD >14% interest a year!

If so I have not figured out how

it would be awesome if so!

bitcoinity says 2200 bitfinex orderbook says 1700

bitcoinity needs to get it together their walls image for bitfinex is never right

more bids between 251.8 and 250 than asks from 251.8 to 260

maybe just maybe we continue upwards

sorry i broke the uptrend

tried selling some of my margin buy at 255.5  0.01 btc was bought and it bounced off 

time to never pass 255.5 and head for double digits 

10k sale volume on bitcoin during a sunday morning and the market just laughed it off?

all this buying and it doesnt look like any shorters have closed yet

everyone please bet yes 

read the faq instead of making yourself look like an idiot 

everyone seems to be missing the small detail of "WEIGHT"

should someone who bet last summer that bitcoin would drop to 100 when it was $600+ have the same odds as someone who waited to add to the bet today when we are in the 200s?


which who would have thought.. has a whole paragraph dedicated to it in the faq  

"Everything about Bitbet.us has so far been a drag. Creating an account takes forever and they take their sweet time approving your ID information. "

i stopped reading there.

there are no accounts and there is no id information.

still havnt read the faq i can tell.

30% USD interest rates on bitfinex

come on bears upload that USD and make free money!

ditto unless you count my 11 foot fishing boat 

lowered my margin buy by 25 btc (back to 150 i had added 25 in the low 60s) not sure where we are going short term 

going to cabelas in the morning (and taking a btc wallet + smartphone with gyft) someone plz pump bitcoin so i can buy more toys 

i read this post then watched 400 coins sold at bitfinex about 5 seconds later

do you offer a subscription service to your upcoming trades? LOL

bitfinex 0_o

10k (visible) bids to drop to 280

~13k (visible) asks on the whole order book

wall at 280 rising and 300 is dropping

someone call 911 i think bitstamp is dead

~300 and a post from Loaded

immediately margin buying all the coins

it's going up and down

"Error code 20
The proxy failed to connect to the web server, due to TCP connection timeout."

about 9 of 10 page load attempts

usd is being borrowed at 0.5399% (DAILY)

i'm almost tempted to sell off some btc to lend the dollars

and as soon as i post that someone offers up  a million at 0.75
1124089.87   1123089.87   0.7499%   

finex hidden sell wall @ 293.7

i mean i feel like we're bound to go up
but it's very hard to keep myself from selling btc to loan out the usd at 95% apr

someone loan me some more usd on bitfinex for something other than 50% APR


edit: but really. these rates really tell something is going to happen with the market. ether a good push upwards or lots of margin buyers are going to be looking to get out before this 50% APR eats away their btc

yeah. 280 bid wall down

market buy incoming?

go margin buy all the coins on bitfinex. alcohol + margin = profit

*looks at post history*




what a surprise. have not seen 230 since then and id say 295 is up?

we had 7500 btc to break 280 on the downside the other day looks to have just jumped to 12,500

semi interesting to me at least

this volume and movement has barely moved the USD or BTC margin swap market

im going by bitfinex.com itself which is up to date

https://www.bitfinex.com/pages/stats

and the market page itself (listing rates and amounts - you need to be logged in to see)

not by the chart websites

so when does the party start? I don't want to be late

ok feel free to rally. sold off part of my margin buy and figure thatll kick off the rally...

surprised it didnt. ohh well reentry $3.50 lower than sale price

down $15 and margin shorts are down and longs up

 

come on bears only 16k coins till two digit prices!

only 13.8k to go! keep it coming bears

now thats a wall.

yeah someone took up all available swap to 0.7% daily lol

USD avg   0.1024%   used   23,605,719.36 USD unused   23,538,986.24 USD

okcoin with higher 24h volume than bitfinex 

come on bears send your USD to bitfinex 30% APR help us delusional longs and get more USD in the process 

500 bid at 260 400 sale at 260.06 who will win 

24% yearly swaps on bitcoin

guess it's time to log into trezor and send some more coins over. good luck shorters

1900 btc sell wall at 246.50

any buyers?

hope these bears know what they are doing..those are getting to be some serious interest rates

my bitfinex account - i put in some high interest rate offers and someone took them.  

enjoying these bears borrowing bitcoin at 0.07-0.49 (i dont get why the people borrowing my btc at 0.49% daily do not just reborrow from the market..rates are so much cheaper now...but i'm not complaining)

just received 0.12 BTC for the past day 

another day. another log entry
Swap Payment on wallet deposit   0.1172816

no idea why they are still borrowing my coins at rates .1999, .3999, and .4999% daily when they could easily change out for the markets 0.07 but whatever i can't complain

idk what that makes bears paying these rates then  especially when it would take about 2 seconds to refinance at 0.07%

bitcoin swaps down usd swaps up

i dont really like that. with 3k coins sold in the past hour

bear crazies are still borrowing my coins 

i mean you've got to be a bit special to bet against bitcoin (it can only go to 0..realistically not even that low..but its possible.. but it can go how high potentially?) but borrowing coins at these rates (when you can "refinance" by clicking a checkbox and a button to ~0.05%) takes it to a whole other level

lol. well i cut off the decimals 

and it changes by the minute

where'd the volume go?

awe only 24 hours left

BTC   8.97808362   0.1999%   24 Mar 17:56   about 24 hours   

easiest  0.54 btc in quite some time

though i still can't figure out why this shorter did not "refinance" at the much lower rates available now (under 0.04...20% of what they have been paying) they kept it for the full 30 day term

shorters going full on retard

.6% daily

reloading bitfinex btc reserves so more idiots can borrow at these rates

it's like 220% i'd hope your credit cards are lower..

not that i expect them to keep these coins borrowed for the full 30 days but i've been surprised before

those are filled loans

the absolute cheapest bitcoin to borrow right now is 0.5498%    daily

entire offer list for bitcoin swap

if someone is going force a short squeeze you cant ask for a better time as there is almost no extra bitcoin to borrow

it's right in the bitfinex margin page

but someone put up a good chunk of coins at the ffr rate so thatll bring it down for a bit

Swap Payment on wallet deposit   0.41506677   

a+

loving these 0.598 % DAILY swap loans

i just don't understand why the borrowers do not click three buttons and re borrow at the current ask bids of 0.0654%....but i'll gladly take their bitcoin till the swap expires in 30 days or they wise up to the interest rates

maybe he enjoyed it a bit too much?

can we please put any rallies on hold at least 20 days

wouldn't want to see my .6% daily interest borrower get margin called 

0.15 btc/day to keep an in loss position open has got to be rough

it would take seconds... clicking their mouse about 5 times



bitcoin - bitfinex...during the last spike in # of shorts... for some reason they have not re borrowed the much lower cost funds available now

lowest USD rate on bitfinex 54% yearly

at this rate it's tempting to cash out bitcoin and lend the USD
