I have no affiliation with these guys, but I found the business model fascinating. Has anybody actually used this? If this succeeds, I reckon it could have far reaching implications on financing and personal banking in general.
@alirtariq I used it back in the day (first few years of launch). They seem pretty good, but never really "blew up". I think they could with the right people behind them. It seems they could pivot to a crowfunding platform for startups for equity instead of buying products like KS and INDGOGO.
@allnick wow, that's astronomically high relative to rates available from traditional banks. How has your experience been? Any defaults, if you don't mind me asking?
@alirtariq yes, defaults are a fact of life but the basic idea is that you don't invest more than $25 in each investment. If you put at least $10k in they have an automated diversification system
