Yes, just wish I had BTC lying around that I could convert to USD. |

Yeah, I sold coins at gox for 5-6% profit, recently rebought them at 2% profit. It's been a nice bet  . Things could get crazy next few days though (for the arbitraging, the lending rates obviously are already crazy at the moment). |

Now if only you could leverage on GOX, could short on GOX at the same time you leverage buy on bitfinex, then just cover your short in BTC. Although I guess you can buy 5% below GOX and get it over to GOX in plenty of time. |

aww, looks like most of the fun is over.
By the way, what happens if people lend money for under an hour. Can they lend interest-free, do they pay for a full hour....?

This has been asked a couple of times and I am pretty sure the answer is they pay for an hour. 0 - 60 min 1 hour 61 - 120 min 2 hour and so on |

People confident that it will bounce back? Short-term, we are getting quite oversold. And thanks for the answer superbit. |

Seems logical to me. Otherwise, why would 1 buyer not have to pay while the other would have to pay? + you could change the amounts and percentage each time, no way to tell which money was lent out before. |

I'm surprised GOX isn't at least an option.
If I recall correct, the explanation was that all the USD held by Bitfinex would tend to gravitate towards Mt.Gox, and Bitfinex team wasn't able to come up with a reliable scheme for getting a sufficient amount of this liquidity out of gox and back onto the Bitfinex bank account or into Bitstamp in a timely fashion. Thus the platform's liquidity would be drained away, and trading had to stop eventually. So they preferred to disable the Gox connection altogether. |

The difficulty in getting money in and out of Bitfinex makes for a very inflexible supply of US loans.
