Well I read somewhere that they plan to put some servers for us in Europe and Asia.

Hello, my dear Chess.com members,
You know that, when I say "dear", I mean primarily those from the United States, who are closest to our Live Chess home server, but I don't forget also our neighbours Canadians, and others from Western countries who possess fast Internet connection and good computers. I wish to tell you that we have made some changes lately that I hope you will find very much to your liking. With God's help, we have drastically reduced compensation for lag times, while our Live server is thankfully still as slow as ever. This means that, when you play bullet or blitz in Live Chess now you will find yourselves at great advantage in comparison to those from other countries who have slower connection to the server. In fact, you will be able to win the majority of games against them simply by dragging it out and making them play as many moves as possible ! Within days, you will find your bullet and blitz ratings skyrocketing, especially if you make sure that you play those with slow connection ! If you find them reluctant to play under these conditions, keep spamming them with challenges and rematch offers until they agree to play.
I realize that many of you have long felt bad for losing to better chess players, despite of your superior technological gear and/or geographical proximity to the server. Hopefully, this will now change.
Yours,
