So, if I had BTC in an active Polo loan (I was lending) during the fork, am I suppose to collect BCH for my BTC's or not?

No, that was clearly stated. When you loan BTC you possess only the worth of it at that time.
When there was a part not on loan at that specific moment of the fork, you should have received BCH for that part.

The highest loan ratings, I got on poloniex, were 4 percent with doge on its hype.
I will wait a bit and go to lending.

I have been lending in poloniex since the fork began. The highest mark that I had seen was 2% because of the btc scarce. Right now my btc returns are around 0.01% - 0.02% and there is nothing wrong with it, at least my btc is gaining some satoshi instead of static value.

what is this "brake pedal" you speak of?

3% is quite a good rate. The lending rates have collapsed since people started to move away from the exchange (and hence do less margin trading).

may look into this and move some coin back to polo for lending.

pulled everything out a while ago once the complaints started rolling in.

Nothing wrong with that. You should consider yourself lucky and hope it lasts 60 days until the loaner releases it.

You should also hope polo wont go bankrupt in the next 60 days. I had this fear and moved all my funds out of polo.

How are other people experiencing offering loans on Poloniex?
I've been starting to notice that the offered loans are not getting on my balance when the loan is due. Right now I will track if the loan earnings are correct, since a week I am starting to get suspicious as my earnings are no where close to what it should be (Even after several calculations).

Hello all,

Is rate a daily or 2 days as marked?

Thats the daily rate is shown there. When you lend your BTC, you can lend it for 2-60 days and the borrower pays that interest rate until he returns your BTC

So just stumbled across this recently. What kind of prices, volume & terms have you guys who lend & borrow BTC for trading been getting?

Just as BTC is a valuable and valuable currency, lending can happen. Just like a bank gives us a loan and pay interest every month. If the bitcoin loan happens, we will get information as to if there is fraud. Because transactions on bitcoin are confidential transactions we do not need to know each other.

This is the formula to calculate the daily interest earnings (assuming you lent 1 BTC)

( (current loan rate)% * 1 ) * 0.85

for example, the current loan rate is 0.06%

(1 BTC x 0.06%) x 0.85 = 0.00051 BTC

Yet to understand the difference between the column loan offer and loan demand. Would someone be kind enough to explain. Thanks in advance

When you lend, you place a loan offer.

When a former loan is completed and the borrower will renew this for a rate lower then available, it's a loan demand. Only, the loan demands with good rates are never available, mostly due to insufficient amounts (<0.01 BTC for example). The total can be more, but it contains only small parts AFAIK, which can't be lend.

So only look at loan offers, and forget the demands.

now understood, cheers

Hi. Could anyone explain to me if there is any easy way to see the current interest rate one is paying on a margin loan on Poloniex? I know I can go to lending and see what's on offer. Some of the rates I am seeing like .001 which I think comes out to 3% apr seem really low to me. How can I tell if that is the rate I'm currently paying without going to the lending page?

thanks in advance!

with all the poloniex drama of late i pulled my coins out. might have to toss one back for lending and see how it goes.

never had problems with polo in the past couple years but as they say "past performance does not guarantee future performance.."
