Still advisable to invest in this platform?
NO. Y'all need to double check your daily accruals. I've been with Shiny since last Nov. I forked out $ in Dec 2020, and again in Feb 2021. In March, I noticed certain issues:
A. when I began with them, I was paying around 42% to their 'electricity fee' - which they claim to make no profit from, and which they claim they strive to keep as low as possible. Now, BTC was around $11k when I signed up. Again;
42% at $11k for electricity...
When BTC hit $60k, I was paying close to 72%.
Are you reading this? Bitcoin went up 5*+ in value, and their 'electricity fee' nearly DOUBLED. Anybody else out there have their electric bill jacked up by a factor of 5+? Any of you watch your electric bill skyrocket from $100/month to $500/month? NO? Huh.... I guess it must've only been
them.....
I asked Support. Their response? "We're sorry. Electricity biggest expense in mining." That's
it. I've received that exact same cookie cutter response 6 or 7 times since...
B. I've been complaining to them about my daily accruals since March. Something wasn't right, but I could never put my finger on it. From the time I made my $300 purchase in Feb 2021 until the end of July 2021, I was reinvesting. I finally stopped after 5 months because
nothing was happening. Regardless of how many times I reinvested, my payouts remained the same. I chalked it up to them pulling a long con and adjusting their 'electricity fee' to maintain my payout valuation.
Close... but inaccurate.
I finally discovered the issue while making an unrelated transaction:
I've 4.85Th/s with them. Not a huge amount, but it should be gaining me over a buck a day. Considering what it cost, I doubt I'd break even at a buck a day now... Anyway... at $0.0015 per 10Gh/s - or 15 cents per tetrahash - I should be paying 72 cents a day. I've brought this up with them on
multiple occasions only to receive that same friggin' cookie cutter "buzz-buzz zap-zap costs mucho dinero" bullcrap response.
About 2 months back, I caught the issue; regardless of mining difficulty or what my gross earnings are for any given day, I'm
always issued between 70 and 73 cents. They are
charging me anywhere from 99 cents to $1.10...
HEARING ME???
They are charging me my earnings and paying me the Godrotten electricity fee - AND HAVE BEEN DOING SO FOR AT LEAST A HALF A YEAR!!
They refuse to listen. They disregard arithmetic, logic, and even screenshots
from their own website. I paid them damned near $500 for that 4.85 Th/s between deposits and reinvestment. I have maybe $70 built up in my account -
after 11 months as a client. $70 11 months into a 24 month contract.
