As I said it seems like most of the DAI borrowing is being done by people taking out margin loans to speculate on crypto. Perhaps this might make sense for the limited use case of people trading cryptocurrency (which is its most popular yet pointless application), but I don't see it being useful or economically viable for general purpose loans.

EDIT: upon further thought since the loan has to be secured with crypto assets, its not comparable to a personal loan. The equivalent regular finance product would be for a portfolio line of credit. Those have much lower interest rates, fed funds + 1-3% depending on the source.
