I've read as much as I can find regarding these forums and requests for ISK and still have a few questions. They are as follows:
1. Are good ol' fashioned work methods able to get funded even if they are as simple as seeding 0.0 stations or mining/refining 0.0 ore and transporting and selling back to hisec? I know these aren't "sexy" new ideas, but am unclear on previous history on funding these types of endeavors. It is understood that a plan/outline of proposed conditions should accompany any request, but I'm asking more about the appetite for these and similar types of actions.
2. What is considered too small, if there is such a thing? Are 250 million or 500 million ISK requests better pursued elsewhere?
3. Does collateral type matter? I.E., are putting up mining barges or multiples of certain types of T1 ships acceptable? It's clear that the smaller number of items that satisfy collateral requirements, the better. In this same topic, is 100% collateral a typical requirement or is there any room for leverage?
With all of the above being asked, I am aware a large portion of the offering depends on character, history, etc. The purpose of this post is to clarify the current state of lending and what may or may not be considered appropriate by the community.
Thanks in advance for responses, even the trolly ones.

1. The two scenarios you mentioned would be very hard to get a loan publicly. npc 0.0 seeding is high risk and generally not worth all the effort/risk for such a small amount. and mining/refining 0.0 ore lol wut....
2. You can make 250-500mil easy with lvl4 missions or w/e. Smaller loans = alliance/corp mates helping out. 1b at least imo before you even consider....
3. if you have the capital and need some liquid and you are able to lock up some of that capital (ie-bpos/utus/etc) then sure... but for what you propose it seems like you could just easily sell your collateral for the loan amount....
not to mention auditing fees and 3rd party fees for collateral...

There have been small amount bonds, loans and even IPOs (LLSE), it's possible to do a small investment even if it looks unappealing to some.

There's an auditing fund to help those small guys out. Some auditors (like me) will hold collateral for free in case the audit fee results valuable enough (ie > 50M).
Though I have to agree with the above poster about how well would a 0.0 operation like this be welcomed.
