Questionable P2P platforms, January 2021
 |
Happy New Year! I started this blog a year ago and mostly focused on what I was calling “WTF platforms“, but with a new year I will use a new term: “questionable platforms”. So which 15 platforms have got my attention?
Questionable P2P platforms
About 1/3 of these already have shut down, but the rest are still more or less active. If you consider to invest in them, I highly recommend to do some serious research beforehand.

Key Takeways
Some platforms have shut down, but still many shady P2P platforms are active.
66% of questionable platforms are promoted by Target Circle. No surprise there.
P2P in general is high risk, low reward. Do your research before investing.

"high risk, low reward" . What would you call a High risk/high reward and low risk/high reward asset?
You forgot to include Lenndy, which misled investors by showing better than reality performance. Giantus, Lenndy and First finance - same owner, but they are likely to have shifted all performing asset to Giantus and leaving all the shitty ones with First Finance.
