What do you mean messy? It's working on Poloniex. People can lend to other people who margin trade.

poloniex manages this.. they hold people to account for losses.

a decentralised model would cause people to just 'leg it' if they lose and not repay if they win.

That's what collateral is for...

decentralised.. is a highly over used word..

as soon as there needs to be a server to link users together to communicate 'offers' and to hold users in debt to account, its not decentralised..

i do not beleive that there is a standalone executable that is truely 'p2p' that gives the communication ability to make 'offers'/loans/shorts

Well isn't that why we have smartcontracts for?

theory of smart contracts, yes. but again ill say it

Thanks for your input.

Bond = Bondage.

Why would anybody want to buy himself slavery, I cannot understand Cheesy

Centralized or no , the instrument itself is messy.

Traders are able to place themselves "in debt", see exchanges with margin trading where people lend lol.

well, you must done this job in an other way now ... with bitcoin, you can't leverage or sell at uncover.
real trusted ... money.

you play, you loose ... you pay.

Hi,

Does anyone know if there's any Bitcoin related project that offers a decentralized bond market? Or if it's in the works? Something like Poloniex, where people can lend shorts and longs for an interest, but decentralized of course. Does it exist? Even if it's another platform or altcoin? I don't like to rely on exchanges as I'm not the one holding the private keys.
