Title: 2 BTC loan request
Post by: jenga on September 27, 2013, 10:40:31 AM
Hi everyone.
I request a loan and yes I'm a newbie, let me at least try to explain my situation and what I'm going to do with the loan.
I wanted to buy 2 Blue fury units from this thread:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=297320.0

This is a short-term loan request. I'm NOT going to mine with them and then pay my debts...

In total 2 units cost 1.98 BTCs with shipping in my country.

To buy them, yesterday morning I performed a trade on LocalBitcoins.com worth 3 BTCs with SEPA transfer (pm me for details).
There is a 80% chance of completing the payment and receiving the BTCs by this evening but I don't really feel like taking this risk since the deadline for orders is this midnight.

Instead, I thought it would be faster to get a loan right now and since I'm going to get 3 BTCs I can support interests as high as 1 BTC.
In the worst case I can pay back by monday or tuesday perhaps.

Before doing any loan-related transactions, I want to wait some more hours just in case I get my coins soon.

If someone is interested, any offer is accepted with interests less than 1 BTC.

Is it possible to buy this stuff directly with my name and address and change it when you pay back the loan?

Interesting. In this case I also get to have a collateral I guess (in the sense of: I don't pay back my loan => you keep the asics). Were you one of the guys who ordered them in the thread I linked? Only thing is that I need to be sure that such an address change can be made. I'll pm the OP for better info on expedition times and such if its ok.

In the meanwhile, I keep my loan offer up and accepting advices.

THREAD CLOSED.

I received my coins very quickly. I just had to wait a bit more. No more need for the loan.

If he does not want people to think that he tried to scam 2 btc, and then forgot the idea when he could not find a stupid guy to accept to loan him :)

Anyone lending to him in the future can check this thread and see he didn't show proof, it doesn't matter

Exactly.  If he tries to ask for another loan, show this thread.   If not, leave him to be.

I show transaction ids then, since everyone thinks I'm a freaking terrorist.

Received 3.1 BTCs:
a6db19fb8bca10c144256de011a7d8dcc96db1cc2d5287e6fd291fbe3f245159-000

Sent 2.83 BTCs to OutCast3k:
e7bda3fcb6ef45210e014052663fbe506d507101e2d1b9ad8b90eb2dd4f269f0-000

Since I received 3 BTCs and in the end it turned out I didn't need the loan I could afford 3 BlueFurys instead of just 2.
You can see my name in OutCast3k's OP post:

His mining rig is so powerful that it acquired consciousness and created an account by itself. :-X

It's more about proof of work, collateral and escrow.
