Why do you need to hide your real data?
![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
If your business is legitimate and legal, there is no real need to hide behind whoisguard or similar services......
But well... What about fees? Your approach looks a bit too optimistic. I have a lendingbot running on my own (and everyone with at least access to a shell and can run some bits of python is able to do so). So, how do you plan to collect your fees and not get ripped of by your customers?
![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
By the way: Yep, on poloniex you can restrict api keys to a specific IP address or IP range and you can forbid Withdraws .. dunno if you can forbid trades at all .. it's a few days since i set it up.
![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
But all in all ..... i'm somewhat clueless how you think this whole thing will work (and why you need to hide behind some - at least a bit - shady registrar services.........
Oh .. and lets not forget, poloniex is racking up a ton of withdraw problems and open support tickets where no one (at poloniex) seems to care about....
But wait.... There is stuff you tell .. which i cannot confirm in the way _you_ tell:
Lets take a more in-depth look:
@Condoras You can`t compare Lending as a Service - LaaS (
www.WeLendBitcoin.com ) with semi-final product such as 3M2 lending BOT or Mikadily's lending BOT. Why?
You need technical knowledge to set up Mikadily BOT;
You don’t have detailed statistics about loans in BTC and USD value – Open, Active, Close, Interest in active Loans, Interest in closed loans, average yield, and easy to use lending parameters;
3M2 lending BOT has only two lending parameters (minimum rate and loan size),
www.WeLendBitcoin.com service (10 parameters);
You need few hours to start lending with 3M2 lending BOT and Mikadily BOT;
3M2 and Mikadily BOT loan entry is every 3-5 minutes
www.WeLendBitcoin.com only 15 sec and etc.
So it is like comparing Ferrari and Russian Lada.
Second thing, if you lend for example 1 BTC - for one year you will earn 0.30 BTC, according to interest in previous year. So, for using 3M2 BOT you will pay 20 x 12 months = 240 USD, and if you use
www.WeLendBitcoin.com you will pay 0.30 BTC * 10% fee = 0.03 BTC – free credit (0,001 BTC) = 0.029 BTC * current BTC price (2700 USD) = 78 USD. Please be aware that service is free of charge until November 1, 2017.
Also, with slow BOT such as 3M2 and Mikadily you will not earn 30% per year.
www.WeLendBitcoin.com will win on market, because every second is important.
Thanks to high interest rate on Poloniex and www.WeLendBitcoin.com I’ve managed to loan out at 5% interest rate per day ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)
Loans at 5% are still active

Heh ... _LOL_ ... there is so much wrong on what you write...
First, to get Mikadily's lending bot, you just need some linux machine and RTFM. There is nothing magic on getting the actual version from git and editing a config file. Even getting your bot to send you stats via Telegram is nothing special at all..... To get that thingie running, it took about 2 hours.. consisting of:
1 minute git clone.
5 minutes editing the default.cfg file
1 hour and 54 minutes figuring out how telegram bots work for nice notifications.
No shit sherlock...
![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
Detailed stats are steadily aviable with the bot in the latest versins, i put a screenshot of my bot-stats in here.
In the config you can select if you want to have the summary shown in BTC or USD (sadly no euro, and sadly only _one_ option .. but well, if you are able to write some bits of python code, even that should be not a big deal.)
You wrote:
_LOOL_ ... No way dude ... if your bot is polling more often than every 30 seconds, Poloniex will blacklist your IP for at least 120 seconds... Been there, done that. Right now, my bot has 45 seconds active interval, 60 second inactive interval and 45 seconds error wait..... 15 seconds? sorry but _LOL_.
Ok anyways... You tell us, every second is important .. oh yeah it is..... but there is another problem.
Getting 5% interest rates is just a matter of _pure luck_.
At 2017-07-31 06:00 p.m. UTC there was a timeframe where a lot of people just sat on their coins and the interest rates skyrocketed towards the 5% limit. Which is by the way the max interest Poloniex allows.
Just some few hours later, we're back on usual and moderate 0.015% average... (for btc, other coins are way worse..)
So ... to sum it all together .. what you are telling us is just simple and plain FUD and the interest rates you tell the users over here are just nice dreams ... and _far_ from reality..
As i said, been there, done that ... my bot is still running and i show you exactly how it looks........

Good luck anyways ... Greetings from Hamburg, Germany,
hacky
P.s.: The reason why it looks like so massive and huge percentages on the BTC loans is simply, i sat out some loans at the time i mentioned above.... I'm really wondering why the very last loan from that time (having 3.049% interest) is still racking up massive fees... It should be easy for anyone to just pay it back and get a new loan with way better interest rates... But well... i think that might already be a loss (the very first one in 3 months by the way .... i wait, and wonder......
