Would you give a loan to borrowers in cryptocurrency?

If yes, in which cryptocurrency:
- Bitcoin
- Ethereum
- Stablecoin (please tell us in which)
- Libra
- Maxit (https://maxicreditcompany.com/whitepaper.pdf)
- Other (please tell us in which)

It depends on who will ask for a loan to me. If I knew that person closely, I will loan him but not for big money because I will think about how he will go to pay the loan. I don't want to give another trouble for lending big money to him, and I don't want to give the money without I can get that money again. I will try with some money to test it for a while and if he can give the money back, then maybe I will lend him some other money. I think I will give him fiat so he can buy any coins he wants.

I'll lend bitcoin with terms and conditions. If I give one bitcoin, I will request respective collateral equal to that value of bitcoin. Further will be the ROI based on the time period required for returning the amount. Beyond this if the value has declined or increased while returning the fund needs to be returned in terms of USD equal to the time at which it was borrowed.

I personally will not give loans in Cryptocurrency because Crypto prices are volatile so it tends to change the value of the assets we lend. I prefer to lend money to people who need it, I'm more comfortable with it.

if i have enough money then Yes but i would require collateral for it and since we are in the internet i only accept altcoins as collateral and it must be 120 percent but i don't have any money to start with though. Anyway, i wouldn't advise to apply for loan in cryptocurrency or fiat since it you would ruin your financial capability.

if I am forced to borrow in cryptocurrency, I might choose a stable coin compared to others. that's because the return will be quite easy, and the amount doesn't go up and down. when I borrow to another cryptocurrency, I'm afraid the price will suddenly go up and it's hard to pay. so, I chose to replace it with a stable coin. and if I lend someone cryptocurrency, I might choose a stable coin with the same reason as I thought.

With a good interest and if the rest of the terms and conditions are great, why not? And another important factor is that the borrower has to be a trusted one. Because whatever terms and conditions are agreed if the borrower is not an honest one and does not have plans to honor the agreements and pay the loan, everything will be a waste. I will choose the coins that are low in fees and fast in confirmation.

I think it is a bit risky to borrow money in the form of cryptocurrency.
When the borrower borrow some coins in low price, they will have to pay in same amount without regarding the price.
If the price when they borrow lower than when they return, the borrower will have to pay more money.

it's easier to use Stablecoin like tether because the price is stable. borrowing / giving loans using other coins will only make you lose. crypto is very high fluctuating and it can be after you give a loan / borrow the price of the coin that changes. Stablecoin is the best choice, which can be used for that.

Sometimes I still lend money to my friends with cryptocurrency, the electronic currency I use to lend is Ethreum. I chose Ethereum simply because it's fast and in my country it's very easy to sell into cash.
It is easier to lend your money to someone specially if you knew who it was since you can guarantee that they will pay you in no time.

To me lending crypto is easy of course if know who will going to lend it. This is some kind of low-key business to me or partially making money while earning and accumulating bitcoin primarily.

It's still not bad though since I've got a limited customer only. Grin
The disadvantages of the fluctuating value of the cryptocurrency affect the profitability of crypto lending businesses. The passive income can ruin the business of the lender if the borrowers don't pay in the time. Knowing the consequences and having calculated risks will ensure the profits in case of having a trustworthy business partner. It is not bad to lend in altcoins but the collateral rate should be over the 120% AFAIK.

Lending in cryptocurrency is a very common matter in our country. We have a group where we do crypto lending, talk about crypto and transact in peer to peer systems. Usually, we do crypto lending in Bitcoin and Ethereum, I always prefer these two coins. Though we don't count the USD value, we do only care about the Satoshi value. So, if the price goes up or down, it causes no effect at all. I don't like the stable coin in lending, they feel not real crypto.

Some project is saying this but never seen in reality. Nobody take this risk as well. The risk on both sides are extremely high.

Personally, on this occasion, I could lend cryptocurrency. But it all depends on whom you can borrow. I can only lend to trusted people in whom I am 100 percent sure that this cryptocurrency will return. And with such successes, you can delay proven people.

If I would had a lot of coins in order to make lends why not ? I mean every user who takes a lend it offers a collateral so the risk involved is minimum.Besides this , you gain more in profits in time , depends how many lends are you offering and what amounts and for what number of days as this statistics bring you profits.

I would offer lends only in bitcoin to be sure that I keep accumulate the profits in bitcoin and in time if other cryptocurrencies are performing good , Ethereum looks like a good option as well.

I wont, there have been several attempts in the past to create a platform where users could give loans to each other and those platforms failed and this was because scammers will use the anonymity that cryptocurrencies bring to their advantage and when you add that once you send your coins to a wallet you do not control them and  you cannot get those coins back then it becomes even more dangerous to lend cryptocurrencies.

Just take a look at the lending section of the forum and you will see that most of those willing to lend their coins need collateral and charge high interests to try to offset the risks they are incurring by their lending practice.

No, I wouldn't do this, since it is risky for both parties - for borrowers (cryptocurrency volatility) and for investors. For me, as an investor, the risk is fraudsters who can easily cheat and provide fake data about themselves.
