Well, no time like the present:

cascadebot: A simple (but effective) lending bot for Bitfinex

Quote
I've written a lending bot for Bitfinex that places lending offers at a high rate, then gradually lowers them until they're filled. You can specify starting rate, minimum rate, and how fast to lower your rates.

This is intended as a proof of concept alternative to fractional reserve rate (FRR) loans. FRR lending heavily distorts the swap market on Bitfinex. My hope is that Bitfinex will remove the FRR, and implement an on-site version of this bot for lazy lenders (myself included) to use instead.

Requires Python 3 and the requests library: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/requests/

Edit cascadebot.py and fill in the parameters. API key and secret are required, but the others have reasonable defaults. Once that's done, run the bot with:

Code:
python3 cascadebot.py
