Why are you conducting business over Discord, instead of Bitcointalk?

I don't personally like leaving the site to someone else's platform, because then they have too much authority. People can be silenced, and kicked off of discord servers.

Here, there will always be (mostly) fair, and unbiased users  who can verify things through quotes.
I guess I just don't understand why there is a need for off site escrow.

With only a few hours left until the 3rd, do you even still need this loan? Paying .003 BTC in interest, plus transaction fees for funds you will only hold for a few hours makes little sense to me unless you are gambling with the funds.

If you no longer need this listing, I suggest removing it, to avoid confusion.

As has been stated above, your collateral has incredibly low volume, and is not enough to cover your request.
I think you are unlikely to receive funding, as is.

Good luck.

Why should people choose your service over, say, Zazarb's service?

If both of you provide an equal service, and same terms, then why should a user not go with the well established, trustworthy service.

I always enjoy seeing startups, and truly do want people to succeed. But you've got to actually solve an issue. If you are just copying someone else, you aren't bringing anything useful to the table.

Are you going to accept more exotic kinds of collateral?
Are your rates cheaper?
Are your limits higher?
Etc...

Find a niche, and try to solve a problem that exists, instead of trying to be a solution that no one needs.

As I recall, Crypto-Bridge doesn't require more than just a username/password setup.

However, if one's username is "shaw1", and one puts down a document claiming to be John smith, that would still raise the same issue as if they did ask for your name.

But I absolutely concur with your underlying point. Fraud to combat fraud isn't a good idea. And as soon as you get caught sending in the wrong docs, then they will have the "moral" high ground to seize your assets. All in the name of combating terrorism.

If one is going to invest in "cloud" mining, why wouldn't you go through Hashnest?
No contract length, and you get to buy it buy the TH/s, and can sell your contract, later.

At least then, you'll have a pretty good idea that there truly is mining equipment backing your contract up.

Bitdeer looks too good to be true, as a generality.
And most bitcoin users know exactly what "too good to be true" means.

If you would, how does this project compare to either something like stackexchange, or something like Quora?

I notice that your platform touts itself as decentralized, on the homepage.
Is that just a slogan, or is the platform truly decentralized, like a smart contract?

Because as social media has shown us, just because you might legally be allowed to talk about some things, the platform may not permit it.

What language is your site built in?

If you are using node, it won't be all that hard to write a layer on top of web3, and use Infura to broadcast it.

You'll need some ETH for the forwarding fees to move your tokens around, but apart from that, it is fairly straightforward.

If you are using PHP, it might be considerably more difficult to implement.

If you set it up right, you could add new deposit tokens just by adding their name, and contract address to a database.

This is actually a really cool service!

If I may ask, do you guys have a plan to combat potential fraud in these stats?
Not all exchanges are on the up and up, and once leverage gets involved, it would be easy for exchanges to report huge (and fake) volume.

I look forward to you guys getting a publicly accessible API set up.

I would highly recommend caution to those thinking about this site.

You are handing over your API keys to an unknown third party.
This means that they can steal from you.

You are entrusting not just the amount you choose to "follow" another trader with, but any and all balances on that exchange.

You are NOT safe just because "allow withdrawals" is off for the API.

By trading a low volume altcoin, they can zero your account just as easily.

They could sell you GarbageCoin for an incredibly high price. They get your good altcoins, and BTC, and you get some worthless token.

Not saying they ARE doing this. But they absolutely could.
Make sure you only invest what you are prepared to lose.

Honestly, the only people here who would get scammed are likely little more than scammers, themselves.

We don't need more coin clones designed to be pumped and dumped.
We need coins that have actual purpose, and fulfill a need.

It gets to the point that I don't even have sympathy with most people trying to make a coin.
They're trying a get rich quick scheme, and it'll hurt people.

I've fiddled with it a goodly bit. Got a few tokens, but mostly used it on Ropsten.

Never heard of any security issues with regards to it, if that is what you are asking about.

It's pretty convenient to use.
No high entry bar to use it. Most Dapps will pull it up automatically when they need it. To verify transactions or sign messages and such.

Vapourware:


You are advertising a piece of software. (And have been doing so since at least November 12th, 2016.)
The software is still not yet available for any usable commercial purpose, and is currently still being designed and developed.

My words do not meet the definition?

Nice website! You have just the right lack of garbage on it.

At the risk of hurting the minimal approach you take towards news, however, maybe you could add a CMC price ticker to your page?

For some of us, that in and of itself is a news source.

So I've been researching different decentralized lending sites lately.

The one that has caught my eye the most is https://app.compound.finance/

It seems to be a fairly well established setup, but I'm always cautious of trying out new platforms willy nilly.

So if anyone has used compound for investing your Eth based tokens, please speak up!
I'd love to know what you guys think of it, and if you think it is worth investing on.

Basically:

How much do the gas fees eat into your profits?
How is the volatility on the interest rate?
Has anyone heard of any security issues or concerns with them?

Please share your experience. Keeping investments in a smart contract seems much less risky than investing in centralized investment sites.

Holy cow those are some fees! 

You have a minimum withdrawal amount of 1000 USD?
You realize that's kinda steep, right?

And your withdrawal fees range from 3.9% to 8%?

That's akin to charging a 0.0039 BTC withdrawal fee, if one withdraws the minimum amount.

All this on an exchange with 80K USD in volume?

I think you need to reconsider your business model.

Lol. That has got to be the longest "shortlink" I have ever seen.

Have you guys considered switching to something paid?
You'd get a lot more traffic, and people would probably take you more seriously.

On a side note, your pages have gotten 679 clicks. Is this service actually profitable enough for you to continue using it?

I'm going with shady on purpose.
That's too bad. I've got some funds there, but not enough for me to sell my identity.
Any warning time, and I would've just withdrawn, and gone about my business.

Guess I'll just have to take a hit on this one. :/

Tobey, you've had me test the game in the past. I remember it quite well.
It was worthless. Might be an enjoyable hobby, but it was built by someone else, and was highly generic.
It was, as I recall, an isometric, RPG. As I recall, it was procedurally generated. (Hence the infinite runner comment.)

Yes. You might have found a coder willing to work for free. But not a good one.
Ask yourself. If you were a great developer, why would you work without pay?

"Unless I was trying to scam, lie, or something of that nature then there's nothing here for you to comment about that would help potential investors make a decision."

Um. Yeah. I have information that would help potential investors make a decision. I've played it. I happen to have had dealings with you when you were looking for angel funding on Btcpop, and it's an awful investment.

You were told how to make your project a success way back then. Learn to program yourself, and build something amazing without looking to sell it right away.
You aren't willing to put the work in. You think a startup consists of a boss getting money from investors, and then paying people to invent something for you.

Until you figure that out, you're never going to be successful.
The best things in life are often the hardest. You've got to be willing to put the work in.

I made no accusations.
I drew parallels.
Valid ones, at that.

Signing up for a service before you know details about it is ridiculous. You haven't earned my email address, yet.


I asked why users should choose you, over a reputable, established one. Still have no answer to that question.

You cannot deny the similarities between your name, and PrimeXbt.
I still doubt that was completely random.

Your exchange has been created at the end of August.

So why are there "reviews" for your service that begin in January of this year?

Also, they all seem to be written in the same style of broken English.

If I can't trust an exchange to be honest in reviews, I think it is safe to say I can't trust it to be honest with my money.
