Kiva does microlending in poor countries which normal credit lenders dont support. The idea is you can lend the same money over and over again to help entrepreneurs start a business which helps lift them out of poverty. Title: Re: Join the Bitcoin team at Kiva.

Post by: mpkomara on October 18, 2010, 02:25:12 PM without even mentioning the rate of default on bitcoins on kiva (try to explain LiqPay to a Haitian), i think you might have trouble stirring up demand for bitcoin-denominated loans. "Here's 200 bitcoins. Go buy yourself a goat."
