I personally have two concerns regarding lending services:
1. The famous not your keys, not your coins. Trusting the service with large amounts of money is a problem, and with small amounts it stops being worth it. 2. Crypto is volatile enough for you to make more than the 8% p.a. that is advertised if you sell high buy low once a month. The returns don't seem worth it.

I heard about BlockFi, but haven't tried to use it. 8.5% interest doesn't sounds bad, but there is few reasons why I'm staying away from lending platforms. First, yeah, they looking reputable, but I'm not going to trust big number of my BTC to third party website where I don't have full control of my coins. Offcourse, you can invest small amount of BTC, but it's just not worth, because profit will be insignificant while same risks remain. And KYC requirements is another reason. As I understand, BlockFi requires KYC and I don't really want to pass in order to lend my money. I thought about lending my BTC here on Bitcointalk. But I'm afraid to be scammed and forgot about such idea.

I mean with proper collateral deals it seems rather safe, no?

All lenders here are the most reputable and higher rank members I don't think if the small amount of collateral they will ruin their good reputation. If you are a newbie you must have collateral and it should worth 100% plus or higher of the loan's value. So, why you are taking a loan if you have collateral to use. We know that this loan service is high risk and it could lose your money in single snap with a wrong decision. Take more cautious to the people who you deal with, not all are in good intention.

I do not trust anyone in the cryptocurrency market. I only trade when I have faith in the other person. Therefore, I do not lend my cryptocurrency. I only invest in buying or selling cryptocurrencies. When I have the conditions, I will buy and sell when there is profit. Lending money is still paid but it is not secure. If cheated you will lose white.

Well, the purpose of the collateral is to act as a security in case anything happens. Just like how banks check your background and what you have, your collaterals allow you to gain access to another resource without the need to sell them unless you default.

There's no guarantee for that even if how trusted they are or how many + trust they get since if in case of emergency and they cannot pay for sure they will default it, we have a lot of green trusted member as well supposed to be trusted escrow scams/defaulted their loans so we need to be careful upon dealing and we should not lend any huge amount here. Small amounts will be ok so that the business will not collapsed if the OP will create a loan business here.

When you think in the situation of the borrower it would be easier to get a loan than to sell the collateral. And since most of the collaterals in the forum are altcoins the borrower rarely defaults knowing they could lose potential profits from their altcoins if they sell it now and buy it back in the near future. Regardless of the amount it's still possible for them to default as it happened a bunch of times before so only lend what you can afford to lose.

As imagine that most of lenders have experience when they got scammed and loan was defaulted. And if you look at Lending section, you'll see that there is not so many peoppe offering proper collateral.

Hi guys, as many of you as I also would like to "do" something with my crypto funds that I held in my crypto wallet. For a few months, I still think if crypto loans really work and there is a very very low risk of losing my funds. I would like to borrow lend my cryptocurrencies with an interest. Blockfi offers up to 8.5% interest p.a. and there are more competitors, but would you 100% trust them? Earning few percent per year vs. losing the big amount of cryptocurrencies fund?
Yes, everything has risk specially the lending services, it's really attractive to see a 8.5% per annum, but your funds are not safe. Honestly, I will rather hold my coins, at least I have total control of it. There are a lot of scammers out there, so it's really hard to trust and lend money to some that you really don't know. Besides, there are also hackers just around the corner. https://www.zdnet.com/article/blockfi-discloses-failed-hack-attempt-after-sim-swapping-incident/

For me, this is much risky for sure especially the last few weeks/months lot of bitcointalk users who able to borrow some Bitcoin or other cryptocurrency were defaulted by the borrower. Especially even how trusted/reputable bitcointalk member you are, there's still a bad side.
Speaking of Blockfi with 8.5% interest per annum, I'd rather go use this than peer-to-peer lending. But using Blockfi seems lot of requirements needed? like KYC? Or the difficult part here is the minimum you will lend or deposit to them, it seems like a huge amount. There is always that risk of losing money when we enter any business. To address the risk of not getting payment from lending with P2P, the lender has the option to ask for a collateral from all borrowers such as another token that can be sold easily on exchanges. The downside with that approach is the lender will probably have less number of borrowers. Entrusting your money to a third party for lending is also risky. We all know any centralized platforms are favorite target of hackers. I don't know much about Blockfi. Maybe they have an insurance for their lenders in case something wrong happens but who knows if they can cover all once they get hacked? Not to mention your personal data could also be exposed and sold in the black market. Between P2P and a centralized lending platform, I think it's still better with P2P if you consider the risks involved.

I will find it hard to lend my cryptocurrency in an online platform. That is not the kind of risk I can take. Not for now. There is so much happenings that can lead to loss of your crypto on lending platforms. Very risky! Those lending platforms can be legit today, and tomorrow they become not legit. You never what to expect. Offline lending is less risky though.

If I am in your position, I would rather hold it and live with a peace of mind, at least you are the one who are in charge or your money, you can sell it anytime you like and you don't need permission from a third-party. Lending your money is not bad, but with that kind of return, it's not worth risk. If you really think of lending then how about trying to lend in the forum, I'm sure you can even get 10% to 20% per month of interest for non secured loans. There's also a risk but the rates will justify that and the fact that there are still a lot of active lenders in the forum, that says a lot about its profitability. If you would like to check, do visit in this section. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=65.0

I wouldn't trust 100% anyone, but in this world you need to risk something if you want to thrive. Investments can be a good option for who doesn't have a decent income of crypto currency or for who doesn't want to take the trading risks. But check the site's reputation you are going to invest, see how much time they are running their business and how they claim to return you profit. If you aren't so sure about it don't put all your money on this particular site, look for other options and ALWAYS run away from sites which claim to return huge profits percentage.
(About lending specifically, I think the rates for lenders won't be so exciting like 8.5% annually, because there is too much concurrency...)

Would be hard for me as well to risk that amount of the crypto to lend because either you have a backup capital where you would be able to have money even in case you lose it which I do not have it. So in such circumstances will be happy to hold it myself or sell it whenever the need be rather than risking it to unkown person.

Indeed, that is very risky especially dealing with random people on the internet and you didn't know personally. It's not hard to lend your crypto if you know who's borrowing this, just like in our local section that we have a lending thread exclusively for the Pilipino community and of course non-collateral if your account is trusted enough or in Lending board open for all forum members but at least it depends again to the borrowers. Though it's risky there are various ways you can minimize your risk if you really want to.

It's been discourage to deal with anonymous people especially on internet and this is been discourage to anyone that's why some lenders is always advice to acquire a valuable collateral to their borrowers, I somehow impressed with people taking the risk like those people on our local board where they trust people with their money but they should put a limit and don't lend any big amount since anyone will run especially if they can't paid their borrowed money in the scheduled timeline.
