I am removing my downvotes because you are at least taking the time to explain things to people, but from the outside looking in, the whole thing looks pretty bad.
Thank you for taking the time to listen and letting us explain. Yes, no ill intention's here but fully understand in crypto it is hard to build trust and don't blame @lonelywolf for freaking out!
Hopefully, we can figure out our place here in the Hive community and show we are here to make everyone prosper. We are fully open to adjusting our mechanism's to meet the communities wants and needs. Maybe, there isn't any need who knows!
Your prices are a lot higher than others.
Yes, so we have Bitcoin and we buy from blocktrades the HP delegation and point it to the particular count that orders it.
Example: So we front $10 in BTC to point 750 HP when the order comes in. The person will pay $5.99 a mo. They will hit $10 in payment back to us in 2 months ( to recoup our $10 we spent to point the delegation ) and the 3rd month we take our fee. Now we take a bit of risk as we don't recoup in the the $10 till month two and they could stop paying and have a free two months - but we can also cancel the delegation and be out 5-7 days worth of delegation they could have used ( not to mention chargebacks ). Now with prices so low our service isn't as much needed right now ,but in a good bull market this could become valuable for people who need quick HP for whatever the needs are. We see helping dapps in some respect get their users necessary delegation for various things.
Another thing you might be asking why we don't have much "skin in the game" - Lonelywolf mentioned the same thing ?
The reason we don't need a large HP in our account at the moment we are just leasing via Bitcoin atm. We ARE going to buy a big chunk of HP though in the near future.
One thing we hoping to do matching ( like dlease ) ,but instead the lessee gets paid in Fiat. A different take on things.
If you were to offer say, a paypal gateway or something that was a bit more trusted than giving up credit card information, that would be a somewhat better look.
Love this idea! Paypal is totally doable. Stripe isn't trustworthy? I'm pretty sure we can enable paypal shall look into it. Great idea!
As far as the comment about this people who have nothing and don’t want to bother with crypto, that is kind of an odd statement because this is a crypto platform and they literally earn from participating on it, and those earnings can just be used for paying for a lease service
A lot of people find it a hassle to buy crypto to pay for something. This was the only point. In other words, if you came to Hive and were just starting out like us, we'd have to learn all the in's and out's of getting on an exchange and getting our Bitcoin there ( or, buying Bitcoin ) to buy Hive/HBD to then go onto dlease/ or blocktrades. Just pointing out the path isn't always easy and effective. If someone goes to our service and pays, they will get the needed delegation near instantly. But, I can see how you could interpret what I said as not knowing anything about the crypto space fair point.
You guys may want to rethink a few things With the business model and hopefully you are legit and not out to harm the community.
Thanks, for the feedback! yes, we are here to adapt and see if we can provide a service to the Hive community no ill intent. If there is no need, or we don't find a place this is fine too. Sorry, for the long post!
If you start adding fiat pathways you then face regulation and KYC issues, which is why DLease doesn't have it.
