They must provide proof of 100% reserve .
Yes but not showing how much they have in their internal wallets doesn't mean they don't have it. So did you come to the conclusion that they're giving out "fake" btc just because they don't publicly show their wallets? Again, I can't read Chinese, so it would be nice if you also provided an English synopsis to the article. Or maybe someone can translate (better than google).

If people thought that chinese exchanges were selling them non-existent coins, the way to quickly find out if its true or not is for people to pull their BTC off of the exchanges and see if all the sudden they run into "technical difficulties" and stop withdrawls.
Why they reluctant to withdraw ? because the situation is some of them provide interest of storing bitcoins by lending and borrowing (or some similar financial product )on their platform . This strategy really works on many greedy guys . AND , many Chinese players are new to crypto they don't know how to withdraw bitcoins to onchain-wallet ( blockchain.info ,qt .etc) ,onchain-wallets are too difficult for them . So , they put their bitcoins on trading platform . I know it sounds ridiculous but it's true . Even if they offer interest, you withdraw the coins, then within a few minutes, deposit back. Those few minutes that the coins are off the exchange is meaningless in terms of lost interest, however it does prove that they have the coins. Of course, everyone would have to do it relatively the same time for this to actulally work. Can't read Chinese either, and google translate sucks. So how did you come to the conclusion that they're trading with coins they don't have?

I'm not sure that I understand, where is the risk exactly?
You really don't see the risk? DRK is currently on a downtrend. What you're offering is only 20% higher than repayment. There is a very real chance that DRK can plummet over 20% of its current value over this 30-day time period. Are you willing to provide 1 BTC collateral with escrow! DannyHamilton, zero fee, you don't lose anything!
If I were going to give you this loan, I would have asked to hold the DRK collateral as well, rather than escrow. When escrow holds the coins, that's just one more step to slow down liquidating the collateral if needed. You can't predict when/if DRK will crash, and if you happen to catch it while it's crashing, you won't know if escrow will be able to respond to your PM quick enough.

Same ol' story with a different twist. Dank, stop lying to yourself. You're not asking for a loan, what you're doing is begging, because you know if anyone gave you money, you won't be paying it back. Your sales pitch is too long

Referenced to THIS post, my same offer in that thread (I deleted my post, but monbux has it in quotes). If there are already buyers waiting to buy the card, then have the buyer first send payment for the gift cards directly to me. Then I use those funds to directly buy the GC's to send it to the buyer. Once everyone is happy, I will send you the btc difference (profit), minus 10%. If the 10% fee is larger than the total profit, then there's no point in asking for the loan anyways. Assuming everything you say is true, this is essentially an escrowed transaction rather than a loan, but has the exact same outcome as the loan you're requesting. If you're lying about the purpose of the loan, or that you already have buyers waiting, then this obviously won't work. If everything you say is true, then everybody wins; the buyer gets the gift card, I get the 0.01btc fee, and you get the remaining profit.

Will pay $2 for it. It doesn't matter the rank just have to be able to PM and post in the marketplace section. Do not want to put in the time to do that.
I hope your account gets hacked and sold for $2.

Denied. It's not a privilege to give you a loan, other way around. edit: what I mean is that you make it seem like lenders are pretty lucky if they're able to loan to you. Duration: 1 year
Activity 3, and expects a loan for 1 year

PS. It is not "big bug". Something is wrong with bc.i database, not with bitcoin technology.
Yes, I know it's not a problem with the bitcoin protocol. I said big bug for the reputable site. So in the future, how do I manually check any Tx ID using command line in a local wallet rather than depend on an online site?

Well you are misjudging in this situation but I understand that it is totally up to you and you have the choice. You probably are legit, but the duration is too long. Your overall profile doesn't give me enough confidence to give you a loan for this long. I was on the edge about this, but it's your posts in the gambling section that tipped the decision. It's only a small percentage of your posts, but nevertheless that's sitll 150+ posts for gambling. I need to borrow 21 million btc. can you do it? How about 30 million instead you told me you will send me pm for gathering some more information but you didn't, but Its ok thanks for your response. Ah so you're the one I forgot. There were too many request and I couldn't remember who exactly it was that I need to PM. This was my fault so I'll give you the fair chance to verify everything mentioned (last week?). PM incoming soon. Atm there are 300+ confirmations It looks like your repayment actually did get confirmed, so apparently it's a bug in blockchain.info. You're marked as fully repaid now https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=740692.0

Don't you see that both of these statements can not be true? It is just a bug on blockchain.info site.
This is a pretty big bug then, for being a more reputable site, and one that has built in wallet for that matter. Your transaction had been confirmed long ago
Thank you

Are they based in New York? If not, they at least should have waited to trickle their dumping. I'm pretty sure the BitLicense is hurting the price more than Ethereum's dump.

This thread is equivalent of saying, "discuss everything in the universe."

Some people are confusing the term investment and speculation. Investment is something more stable, gains are smaller but happen over longer term. There are risks associated with investing, however the odds are in your favor. Speculating is more short term in hopes for quicker but higher returns. Now there is no clear cut line between the two, but when it comes to crypto currency, it's speculation.

You may want to offer a higher interest. 1.25% per week is very low for the associated risk. I might be willing to do this, but terms and rates needs to be different.

post count has no relevance to legitimacy.
Perhaps not in a discussion thread, but for a transaction, it does matter. With this statement, you just lost all credibility here. At least give me a fair shot like every other user
One chance is all it takes for a scammer to screw someone over. Make a new account, rinse and repeat with the same "give me 1 fair shot" excuse.

1 post, went straight to the the currency exchange section, using PP as payment

It has been over a day, and this repayment has still been unconfirmed. It looks like you did pay the Tx fee, so not sure what is going on. I'll take you off the "unpaid" list and delete this post once there's a few confirmations.

This forum doesn't allow video embeding like most other forums. A few years ago, I didn't realize this and wasted a lot of time trying

Loan Request - 0.15 for 7 days !!
I already offered you 0.05btc, you didn't take it. I can't give you this high of an amount, so I'm denying all together this time. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=701592.msg8164115#msg8164115i want to lend 2.5btc for paying my mother's Hospitalization expense
Denied. Too large of an amount for someone with zero trust. Hi, im just re-submitting...
Please, stop begging for a loan. I already denied you, and I'm not reconsidering. You haven't even met the minimum activity requirement. I took the time to explain it in THIS POST for you. I don't need a lot but I would need to ask for quite a long term loan. I would need 0.2BTC but I will be able to pay it back on 2014-09-20 (or earlier if I will be able to).
Denied. I can't provide a semi-long term loan for your current level of trust. Seems like you got pretty screwed, so your level of desperation means a higher chance of you not paying back the loan. I'm looking for a loan of 0.05 BTC or even 0.1 if you are okey with it.
Denied. Nearly all your posts are in the gambling and lending section. Your account is not even a month old. I'm looking for a loan to buy an S3... coiningsolution price for an S3 is $429 shipped. With BTC at $514, that's about 0.834.
Approved, but before I send, you must prove you've owned your account since 2011, and a few other misc things. I'll PM you how to do this. Edit: we have both agreed in PM that the loan won't be suited for the situation.
