Bitcoin Forum

Hi...I am looking for a loan of 5BTC, to pay back within 2 weeks (May 13th).

I am offering to pay 10% interest on this loan.

I have already done one successful loan with kjlimo on this site.

I can provide proof of ownership of an ebay account with over 120+ feedback spanning roughly 10 years of history, 100% positive, as both a buyer and seller.  I am also willing to provide any other info needed to make the lender feel comfortable.

What am I using this loan for?

I will be using this loan for chips on Seals with Clubs poker website.

What if I lose?

I was a winning player on Pokerstars before they shut down to US players.  If I were to lose some/most of the chips, I will simply buy the bitcoins to repay the loan.  Taking a loan gives me the opportunity to build a bankroll without having to deposit money in the first place.

This is a win-win on both ends.  Gives me the chance to build a free bankroll, and gives the lender a 10% return on their money in two weeks or less.

Thanks!

I suggest you buy the bitcoins to fund yourself.  It's not cool to gamble with other people's coins.

I would agree with you 100% if my sole way of repaying the loan was dependent on me winning.  The lender should not have to inherit this risk.

However, as I stated, I fully intend to purchase the bitcoins needed to repay this loan if necessary...thus no risk to the lender in regards to the gambling/poker playing.

No need to even do that, brah. Just skip on paying anybody back and create a brand new forum account and never log into your old one anymore. The most you've lost is a forum account with 13 posts.

I joined this site a few months ago and have done mostly reading, just haven't posted much.  I have a long history of buying from kjlimo on this site, as well as one repaid loan with him.  I know without question he would vouch for me.

I also have a long history on other sites such as ebay, 2+2 forums, seals with clubs web of trust, etc. with great feedback.

 

The best part about what Tomato suggested is that you can transfer that history over to your new account when you abandon this one!   ;)

Seriously - don't ask for a loan for gambling.  Pay for your own chips.

I understand being careful, doing all due diligence, etc., with regards to loans, but to label me as a scammer with no basis whatsoever other than that I had only 12 posts is rather rude.

I was not hiding anything, I was extremely forthright in what I would be using the loan for, and what my plans to repay were had I lost.

No one has any obligation to give me a loan, but I have every right to ask for one without people accusing me of things with no basis whatsoever.  I have offered to provide anything requested, which would include ID, proof of residence, phone conversation, etc.   

If you loose all that, you will be seriously tilted and not wanting to pay it back. Trust me, don't lend.

You have as much right to that as I have to read these forums without all the scam loan requests.  Get over yourself!  It's not your right if it infringes on the rights of another (i.e. the right to free speech).  I can accuse you of being Hitler just for shits and giggles if I so choose because it's my right (as it is yours) to post on this forum as long as the owners allow it.

Account information (for sites like Paypal, eBay, etc) and personal info (address, phone numbers, SIN numbers) can be purchased cheaply online.  That is why the peer lending site btcjam is such a cesspool of fraudulent activity.  Even if you did provide actual information about yourself, no one has yet sued another person for the return of bitcoins.  When you decide not to repay, the lender is simply S.O.L, and I am sure you know that.

In short, stop being so lazy and buy some bitcoins yourself.  Then if you win or lose, it's YOUR money, and not someone else's.  No one here will lend to you - we're not idiots.

I have already received and repaid a loan on this site.

Maybe I'm going about this wrong, but I am relatively new to this and have never in my life scammed anyone, and would never do so.

Solid guy, wish I could loan him as much as he wants.

Unfortunately, I do this too often and have many outstanding loans ATM, haha.

meat, there is one easy solution for this:

Show them your profile on either Sharkscope or PTR.

Yea, Shakrscope would be a good indicator.

Below is my sharkscope...I posted my total and my last 1100 games.  As you can see I sucked when I started and when I finally learned how to play my ROI rose from negative to 10.9% for an overall of 5.6%

did you get your loan?

Post a picture with a shoe on your head, while holding your forum name.

lol @ this thread

No...I kind of stopped pursuing it based on the responses I got.

LOL.

Although I am still interested and would be interested in less than 5BTC if that's what one was to offer.

I'll offer you a 100BTC loan if you jump though a flaming hoop on a motobike while shouting yolo.

Deal if I don't have to shout yolo.  I will NOT do that.  150BTC with the yolo.
