Especially in Europe, the new PDS2 banking directive is on schedule and full steam ahead. Where traditional banking framework and information stores have failed and left the door wide open for countless crime sprees, the introduction of Peer-2-Peer based lending aims to aid in the prevention of crime by eliminating vulnerable third party involvement.
The PDS2 directive and Open Banking Regulation movement is no small thing. The European government has already instituted a first Payment Services Directive. Now, they've officially announced the adoption of a second Payment Services Directive 2 (PDS2) starting in January 2018. The PDS2 and Open Banking Regulations apply to the entire European Union (EU) and European Economic Area (EEA).

If you're an active investor, you already know that investing in start-up companies can yield big profits when there's a new technology involved. And just like people who invested in purchasing domain names in "cashed in" on taking a chance doing it, the Ethereum Blockchain is quite a similar opportunity.
Bitcoin uses Blockchain, and people lucky enough to have purchased coins for pennies on the dollar made a lot of money when the price of the Bitcoin skyrocketed. But in the case of ETHLend, the Blockchain powered core has already been established industry wide. Taking advantage of it now makes perfect sense!
No one knew if the Ethereum based Blockchain was going to succeed or fail. Now that Bitcoin has proven that Blockchain core dynamics are "sound" as both an online business framework and "engine", the sky's the limit! And because there are many more lending websites just like ETHLend opening up, investing in ETHLend probably won't make you rich. But it is a solid investment opportunity that will pay for itself and leave you with a nice profit amount.
