First off so you guys dont think im pumping the coin, I don't own any SALT r/n Because my money is stuck with coinbase (thank you coinbase for fucking me over, appreciate it) As soon as it will clear i will buy it. But I wanna tell you why I fell in love with this coin in the past few days, after I researched it. Basically SALT is one of the best ideas i've heard of in crypto. They're doing "crypto backed loans". Heres what they're gonna do - > Lets say you own BTC and need cash (a loan) but dont wanna sell your crypto. You can use your BTC as collateral and get CASH, then they will hold on your BTC until you pay them back. Now here in the USA when you're trying to take a loan, they check your credit score and approve you or decline your request based on your credit. Problem is - most people that needs a short term loan has shitty credit. So SALT doesn't do any credit checks... because it doesnt need to You're basically using your crypto as backup - if you wont pay the loan they will keep your crypto But that way you can invest in crypto and still stay liquid (fiat wise) It doesnt even have to be for people that need a loan...lets say you're holding ETH but need some cash right now to buy your mom a gift, and your salary comes in a week. You don't wanna get out of your ETH position so you use SALT, and pay them back when u get your salary.... brilliant I wonder what you guys think and if any of you invested in this project.... It just seems like a brilliant idea to me because I can see how useful it can be

I like the whole concept of Salt. However, I find Ethlend more interesting due to the space of growth compared to Salt.

The interest is in fiat or BTC and the another question is....Salt is only for short term loans?

Any project which helps us remove banks as intermediaries in things where we don't really need them, such as loans, is welcome. SALT is doing exactly this, moreover in a tokenized form on a blockchain, so... thumbs up. And if they succeed in getting enough people on board, it will become a huge business.

It's actually a very nice idea. If you have lot of Bitcoins let's say, you don't want to sell but need some cash for couple of months, this seems to be a good solution. It might turn out to be a genius business idea, especially now after most coins raised a lot and some people maybe have more money in crypto than in fiat

All the money lending businesses have great potential, and in this case, with a focus on one of the largest markets in South Africa, the potential is huge. If it does not bother the banks that they steal their customers and that's the money this project has a great future.

I think this project is good, they have a good purpose and idea. The project acts like a bank where you can loan an amount you want but the collateral is you BTC.

Absolutely agree, SALT is project right on target, there are lot of money invested in cryptos and of course, you do not want to sell your precious blockchain asset - so you have 2 options go to bank and ask for loan - and you get under scrutiny, you need salary confirmation, insurance, this and that, nothing pleasant to go through or we have SALT option - use your Bitcoin (Ethereum and alts comming in 2018) to secure the loan and get and repay in fiat, hassle free. If I have to chose, SALT is the way to go and the token would definitely see a very nice growth this year as well.

This ICO has still a long way to go, it will still depend on the community if it will be fully accepted. I think the vision of this ICO is very good and will be helpful to us, and that what investors are looking in good ICO's.

The biggest profit is always only when you buy a good coin in time

The community will definitely vote for a no-bank trip, so SALT will be very popular in a while

It is very nice number and it shows the interest of people. What is better that this is only a drop in the ocean of bank's world. The potential for SALT in this sector is so huge, we can't even imagine the future numbers.

Like the idea of loan platform. Definitely something new and moreover this doesn't require any background verification or documentation which happens in a traditional way when people approach a bank for loans. However, I do have few questions-
1 - Is the loan sanctioned based on the requestor's local currency? 2 - If BTC is held as a security deposit, what happens when there is fluctuation in price? 3 - How can someone close the loan that he/she has taken? Is it just by sending x amount of coins to the specific wallet? 4 - Will there be a tenure to lock the loan that's distributed? If someone wants to pre-close the loan, is this possible?
Thanks and have a nice day.

Crypto-currency is created in order to displace intermediaries between us and our money. We have the right to dispose of our money as we want and we do not need intermediaries. The salt also helps us with this.

I took my time to go through the SALT whitepaper and I must confess that it is a very interesting project. EthLend as a decentralized lending platform is another wonderful project similar to SALT project but with decentralization advantage over SALT.

I like the idea, and if used the right way it should help a lot of people that use crypto. I know I had to sell some of my bitcoins in order to pay some bills, and that was when bitcoin was still under $1000. So now those bills were definitely overpaid. If salt existed at that time it would saved me a lot of cash. I only see one problem with salt, and that is regulation. They will probably need to pass a lot of barriers before they can loan money like that, because that is normally only allowed by banks and credit companies, so I'm not sure they will be able to do it, using crypto as collateral. I hope they can, because their service looks nice.
The last problem will probably be related to how people use it. I'm afraid a lot of people will use salt as a way to get leverage. They ask for a loan, and then they buy crypto again, hoping that alone will give them profit to pay the loan. This could end badly for users and loaners if crypto falls after a loan, but let's see how it plays.

I totally agree with you In the end it will be all about people how it will use it . And I am scared about the same point you say " I'm afraid a lot of people will use salt as a way to get leverage. They ask for a loan, and then they buy crypto again, hoping that alone will give them profit to pay the loan." we are still just only people envious, rude, selfish and especially unpromising - some of us . We will see. But for invest this project is very good.

I also care about ETHlend they have a lot of good moves to push prices up. In the upcoming time airdrop will help ETHlend go up because there are many people want to use it to participate in this event.

Reasons why SALT must moon from here on.
1. Huge news at 16th January at Bitcoin Conference 2. 7400% At HIGH 3. 12h, 6h, 4h all diverging bullish 4. Hit double Bottom at 4 times at support level! 5. Strong support at 600 Sats. 6. Twitter evangelist are hyping up this coin 7. Severely undervalued! 8. Fundamentals are sick! 9. A working product 10. Bitcoin going to the moon tommorrow!
