Dibs 上市 Deposited
A slang term for money and possibly a corruption of "tips," i.e., gifts for service rendered. Horace and James Smith in their Rejected Addresses, 1812, George Barnwell use the phrase "make nunky surrender his dibs," and Smyth, in The Sailor's Word-book, 1867, has, "Dibbs, a galley term for ready money."
