Title: [Poll] BSIP59:Reduce MCR of bitUSD to 1.6
Post by: bitcrab on May 01, 2019, 02:26:21 am
Based on BSIP59, https://github.com/bitshares/bsips/blob/master/bsip-0059.md, now 2 poll worker proposals have been created:

1.14.187   Poll - BSIP59 - Reduce MCR of bitUSD to 1.6
1.14.188   Poll - BSIP59 - Do Not Reduce MCR of bitUSD

The purpose of this change is to improve the liquidity and also the peg, at the time while bitUSD is in great shortage and premium.

The MCR of bitCNY has already been reduced from 1.75 to 1.6 and worked well up to now, it's also necessary to set MCR of bitUSD as same as bitCNY, otherwise more users would like to select to borrow bitCNY to lessen the liquidity of bitUSD。

Please vote according to your opinion.

When lowering MCR for bitUSD, we should first consider raising MSSR to 2.5%. BitUSD has not the same liquidity as bitCNY, having the same parameter doesn't make much sense.

now the bitUSD/bitCNY ratio is increasing, bitUSD is in more serious shortage and higher premium than bitCNY, I hope voters to vote for this proposal to help to encourage bitUSD supply.

every USD debt position owner, every USD holder is benefit related, you are not so special.

now USD is in higher premium and more serious shortage, lower liquidity than bitCNY. voters need to consider more on how to solve these questions and how to push the evolution ahead, less on how to avoid suspicion or keep political correctness.

at least you can vote both the for and against workers, to increase the participation rate, but let other voters to make the final decision.

With a MSSR of 2% for bitUSD almost no margin position gets eaten.
MSSR of 2% works good for bitCNY but not for bitUSD.

I am not against a MCR of 1.6, but we also have to raise MSSR for bitUSD to a minium of 2.5% or better 3%, to reduce risks.

Margin position gets eaten was not determined by MSSR, must clear this.
How do think raise MSSR for bitusd to 2.5% or 3% even 10% will reduce the risk?  can you prove it?

With a higher MSSR there is a bigger arbitrage opportunity and a bigger discount to the market.

MSSR for bitUSD should be at least 3%.

Voted for it since a higher MCR than bitCNY makes bitUSD less attractiv and the timing doesn't have any effect on bitUSD with the small amount of debt holders.

The bigger the discount to feed price, the more people will take the discount.

I'll support reduce MCR to 1.6 for both CNY and USD after this have already executed in CNY.
but I will not support reduce from 1.6 for neither CNY nor USD.

No speculation, I have valid arguments and you have zero arguments so far.
Explain why a higher MSSR does not result in a higher chance to eat up the margin call?

We have many years with MSSR=1.10, and you should find the result from the market, if you didn't find the result, i think the explain is doughy.

What is the market sentiment?and how did it works? and the margin call was eaten with which market sentiment?

If you understand this i think you will see.

The high MSSR is a cancer of the Bitasset.

We have a consensus about MSSR to be as low as possible and as high as needed?
