Sorry for silence, we noticed your comment and will think about it!
Hi openledger team. I have a suggestion. If you ever made a lending mechanism on openledger i think trade could increase quite a bit, becuase there would be much less risk from the lending side. I hope that you have this planned for future implementation.
You have already the lending mechanism installed with the option to borrow the Smartcoin bitUSD pegged to the value of usd collaterizing your bts tokens
It is a great way to increase your options when crypto rises, but note it is also ofcourse important to never forget to settle every once in a while, as the risk is always price goes down and you may risk being called upon.
On OpenLedger you are as one of the few places in the world able to BUY / SELL / SHORT / LONG on a decentralized exchange with +3000 tx/s and up to 225 000 tx per day untill now but able to scale to millions with no problem.
have a look following article giving you an example of how to borrow to invest in other crypto:

Borrowing funds to invest, and in the same time gain from the expectations of bts currency will growYou may buy the bitUSD from the markets or create them yourself and then borrow bts to even buy OBITS, believing bts price will go up and eventully pay back the borrowed amount:
