Posh in the Lending section, not the Beginners & Help. If you provide collateral, then yup, I'm sure someone would be willing to do it

Is he asking for a USD pegged loan?

Is he asking for a USD pegged loan? According to what's written, it seems that he wants a loan in the amount of $1000 denominated in BTC, in exchange for 4 BTC held in escrow as collateral, and that he wants to repay $1,010 denominated in BTC. So, everyone is confused because he wants to provide more BTC as collateral than the amount of BTC he is looking for. This is why I joked that I'd like to know who the escrow would be, because the only way that this deal would make sense is if he is a scammer just waiting to tell us all about some 'trusted' escrow he found. Hopefully he just typed his request incorrectly and that English isn't his native language ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Or it could be a cheap way of getting leverage for a month on a hoped for increase in the Bitcoin price, at a cost of $10. Ignore the collateral for the minute, that's just security to be returned by the escrow on repayment of $1000 plus 1% i.e. $1010. Say, for the sake of easy calculation, Bitcoin at the time of the loan is trading at $333.3, he gets 3 BTC = $1000. IF the price goes up to say $505 during the month, then he pays back $1010, now only 2BTC, making a 1BTC profit on the loan (as well as the collateral).

that's exactly what i mean i didn't mean to ask for a loan too, just if it would be reasonable someone would do that? but it is not for buying bitcoin but indeed, i would pay back 1010$ in bitcoin if bitcoin is 10100$ in a month i would pay back 0.1 bitcoin, if it's worth 101$ i would give back 10 btc per btc lended. I'll immediately transfer those btc back to fiat so even when the price would go down like hell I'll still be able to pay back. It's just lending out fiat with an intrest rate of 1% a month (of 12.68% a year). I could also do it with lower amounts maybe but the problem is how to use the collateral then. Is there a way to be 100% sure I'll get my sended btc back when i pay back the loan? I'm really new in all of this and don't know how everything works

Certainly a bank pays much less interest on deposits, but then again the bank is a MUCH lower risk. Deposits at the bank here in the U.S. are regulated and insured by the F.D.I.C. Are you running a regulated business? If I loan you money, will that loan be guaranteed by an extremely reliable insurance corporation? If not, then the lender is taking a MUCH higher risk, and therefore should be adequately compensated for that additional risk. If getting a bank loan was so easy for you, then you already would have gotten the loan there and would not be here looking for someone willing to take a chance on you.

If you have a bank account you can get a fiat for cheaper on loan. There is a entire lending board on here, if you look because of risk the monthly fee is normally higher then one percent.

I have no idea what is the "fair" rate should be though. Regarding to risk, you are absolutely right.
