1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / MatchX NEO Miner - Bittawm Trust Review (Earn over $5/day using 1watt) on: April 20, 2023, 08:42:13 AM
         

DISCLAIMER: THIS DOES NOT MINE NEO - It Mines DOGE and MXC. (NEO miner is just the name they chose)  

Hello Bitcointalk family.

I have another cool new toy to talk about from MatchX.

Please see my last review about the M2 Miner: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5414351.msg60979066#msg60979066

This time I am here to talk about their new product: The NEO miner.

I have been using the MatchX M2 miner for over a year now and I have been very impressed with its performance and earnings. It is a great device for mining MXC, DHX, and BTC tokens on the MXC data network. However, I noticed MatchX released a new NEO miner. NEOminer is a low-power, multi-token miner that offers a powerful and low-emission solution to change mining in the PoW and PoS era. It also creates a data network called LPWAN by connecting to other miners, and it can certify and verify digital and physical goods, including NFTs.

I preordered multiple NEOminers during the pre-sale and it is scheduled to be delivered sometime this month. According to. The setup process is very easy and intuitive ( It is the same as the M2 miner its like a 5 mins setup).  plug in the power and ethernet cables, scan the QR code on the device with the DataDash app, and follow the instructions on the app to activate the miner.

The NEO miner uses a mining algorithm called PoP (Proof of Participation) much like the M2 miner, which rewards miners for providing network coverage with their own miners.

The NEO miner runs smoothly and quietly and consume very little power. According to the app, it only uses 1 Watt of power, which is amazing compared to other miners. It also generates a lot of data packets that are sent and received by other miners on the LPWAN network. This helps to increase the coverage and security of the network, as well as earning me more tokens.

One of the most interesting features of the NEO miner is its ability to certify and verify digital and physical goods. I am excited to try out this feature soon. According to MatchX, NEO can work with N3XUS, a next-generation NFT beacon that can display NFTs in real life. NEO can also certify indoor sensors and luxury goods using its Low-Scale Certification (LSC) technology. This sounds very promising and innovative.



              


         
My genuine thoughts on the NEO MINER: (11 months
)

I believe like the original M2 that this will be extremely profitable this makes an extimated $5 per day excluding DOGE rewards from bonded MXC, it basically pays its self off in a few months, I am pretty damn excited.

Earnings $5 per day
The Miner costs around $495 euros
Payoff 100 days approx

Just like the MXC M2 miner, the NEO runs silent, and produces no heat and is profitable. A miners dream.

      







           
The Basics of the miner:
You want to keep miner health at 100% to yield the maximum rewards. (how to mine the maximum amount of MXC through your Neo miner)
There are a few different factors that affect miner health:

1. Uptime:
How long your miner has been connected to the internet. After 7 days you have 100% uptime.

2. Fuel tank:
This is how much MXC you have mined, if you withdraw your mined MXC your miner health will be affected. If you withdraw all of your fuel your miner health will reduce to 20%. You can trade the markets and sell MXC at a high price, then buy it back at a cheaper price and refuel.

3. Proximity:
You can only have a maximum of 50 miners in a 2km hexagon. If you add more miners beyond this you will start to experience reduced miner health.



  


         
Bonding MXC:
Like the M2 miner, you can bond MXC to earn alternative rewards, The NEO Miners secondary coin to mine is $DOGE:
Bond MXC tokens with your NEO miner to earn DOGE reward:
Basically lock MXC tokens for a few months and in reward you earn $DOGE

I WILL CONTINUE TO DOCUMENT MY NEOMINER EXPERIENCE SO YOU CAN ALL SEE HOW I GET ON, I ORDERED A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF NEO MINERS
      



2  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / MatchX M2 Pro Miner - Bittawm Trust Review (Earn over $10/day using 3.5watts) on: September 21, 2022, 09:01:34 AM
           

Hello Bitcointalk family.

As you know I have been in the mining space since 2012, I have studied and researched hundreds of miners over thousands of hours. We have all experienced spiking difficulty and diminishing returns, these combined with a bear market are a recipe for disaster.

I have something special to share with you that has proven profitable long term. The incredibly innovative, energy efficient M2 Pro Miner – By MatchX

This is not your traditional Proof-of-work miner but instead something very innovative. The M2 Pro Miner is an IoT Device  that can mine multiple cryptocurrencies using a Proof-of-Participation protocol. Currently MXC, BTC, DHX and soon to be added DOT.

The M2 Pro miner is an extremely energy efficient miner, drawing less than 3.5 watts on average and 6 watts at full load making theM2 Pro is hundreds of times more efficient than traditional miners.  This miner uses less power than a low powered light bulb.

Another great feature of this miner is how quickly it can be set up, no connecting to pools and setting up workers. This miner is truly plug’n’play. You download the app on your mobile, scan the miners QR code and you are ready to mine.

The M2 Pro Miner makes no noise, it is SILENT. You can have this miner in the same room when you sleep and you would not even notice it. It is fantastic that IoT devices offer a new form of earnings without the annoying side effects of traditional PoW mining.






              


         
My experience  and genuine thoughts on the M2 Pro Miner: (11 months
)
This has been one of my best experiences mining I have ever experienced, this miner is neat, sleek, quiet, low powered and more importantly profitable.

The Miner costed around $2700 USD and I have mined a total of 54,100 MXC in the last 11 months. That is currently worth $3873 at the time of writing this.

The miner has been consistently mining over $10 per day every day for 11 months straight (Mining MXC alone). You do not get that type of consistency in the PoW mining world.  The additional profit is from the capital gains from the MXC tokens.

I forget this thing even exists because it’s so small and quiet. This has been one hell of a miner, I highly recommend the M2 Pro Miner.

You can trade the markets and sell MXC at a high price, then buy it back at a cheaper price and refuel.  Or you can do what I did and don’t withdraw any MXC until you are ready to take profits.

3. Proximity:
You can only have a maximum of 10 miners in a 2km hexagon. If you add more miners you will start to experience reduced miner health.  The more miners you add after that will have reduced miner health to the point where the 15th miner upwards will experience a 100% miner health reduction.





  


         
Bonding MXC:
You can also bond MXC tokens to mine either DHX or BTC, you need to have a miner and bond at least 5000MXC in order to mine BTC (there is no threshold to mine DHX). I am not sure exactly how much Bitcoin can be mined but it should be around the $0.60 per day per 5000MXC. There is also no limit to the amount of MXC that can be bonded. Meaning if my calculations are correct then 50000 MXC will yield $6 per day.

6  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Bittawm Defi Platform Review - Kineko - DEFI meets Betting! on: September 07, 2021, 08:15:51 AM
I am an advocate for Defi and disruptive tech, for some insight go here:

Bittawm's Intro to Liquidity "Mining." The new most profitable form of mining?:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5349340.msg57463821#msg57463821




I present to you a true innovation. A platform that combines DeFi with betting! Kineko!

Platform Name: Kineko
Native Token: KKO : https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/kineko
Chain: Ethereum
Discord: https://discord.com/invite/kineko
Docs: https://kineko.gitbook.io/kineko/
Website: https://kineko.com/ (for betting) and https://stake.kineko.io/ (for staking)


First what is it?

Kineko is an online bookmaker with DeFi integration. The DeFi platform rewards the user for participating in the liquidity provider pools, rewards are then transferable to the bookmaker which offers real rewards for the liquidity providers.

Different Components of the website:

   [Exchange]  fully licensed bookmaker with real time odds and liquidity for all markets specializing in sports and eSports

   [Staking] Staking allows users to utilize their assets in by providing liquidity and be rewarded with KKO

    [Token Distribution] KKO will be split among developers, the DAO and the community, with most of the rewards going to the staking protocol from fees generated on the bookmaker.

    [Kineko DAO] The governance of Kineko will be managed by a DAO with the native token KKO





This is what the platform looks like:






This project really interested me because it combines some really lucrative and high growth industries. Defi, bookmaking and DAOs

Really innovative and with the potential to really take off.

Let me tell you why I expect this project to do well:

The Target market is huge:
Both betting and Defi are highly attractive industries. This platform caters to many markets: Betters (both sports betting and cassino). Defi users and Crypto enthusiasts.

A token with real utility:

The Kineko token represents governance of the platform. While it is not a complete DAO yet it will be in the future. The main punchline here:"Owning / staking the KKO token gives you access to revenue share from the betting platform"
Meaning the more success the platform has the more profit KKO holders make.

Cashback and rewards:
Users also get "cashback" of 2% KKO back on any bet made with KKO. On top of this, there is an extra 2% of the defi staking rewards that get rewarded to the users with the highest betting volume (on all bets with at least 1.50 odds)  This is pretty attractive comparing to traditional oddsmakers. Kineko also has other attractive promotions such as a 100% welcome bonus. users are encouraged to use this platform. I see this platform capturing much more market share in the future.




This is what the staking platform looks like:







At first glance the KKO-ETH Liquidity pool has the highest reward of over 200% APR but remember you will suffer impermanent loss for any liquidity pair. In my opinion it should still be well worth it but do your own research. The LP pool has $1,790,000.00 currently staking


the KKO staking pool is still pumping out a juicy 24.52% APR which is pretty good for a single asset staking pool. the KKO pool has approx $8,400,000.00 currently staking





Conclusion:

Kineko is the first to market incorporating defi to oddsmaking. It has every ability to really take off.

If you are a Defi Investor and  want to own a piece of this incredibly innovative platform then buy some KKO and stake it in the staking pool maybe even pair up some KKO with ETH and enjoy the Liquidity Providing staking reward.

If you enjoy sportsbetting test Kineko out, enjoy some of those cashback rewards and staking volume rewards listed above.

If you are enjoy casino related games test Kineko out. They have all the traditional casino games including card games and slots.

9  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Bittawm Defi Platform Review - Illuvium - https://illuvium.io/ - FIGHT FOR ETH! on: July 28, 2021, 05:56:29 AM
I am an advocate for Defi and disruptive tech, for some insight go here:

Bittawm's Intro to Liquidity "Mining." The new most profitable form of mining?:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5349340.msg57463821#msg57463821




I present to you a true masterpiece, something super special........ Illuvium!

Platform Name: Illuvium
Native Token: ILV : https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/illuvium/
Chain: Ethereum
Telegram: https://t.me/illuvium
Docs / Whitepaper: https://docs.illuvium.io/
Website: https://illuvium.io/


This is going to be big!

This is not financial advice and I am not a financial adviser.....however...... SELL YOUR FAMILIES AND BUY ILLUVIUM

Let me tell you why I consider this so special, and why I expect massive gains:

Illuvium is built on encompassing disruptive technology and high growth industries

1. Blockchain Gaming: Blockchain gaming is going to be more prevalent in the gaming industry, and it is evolving rapidly. Users will actually have the opportunity to monetize their time playing and own in-game assets. Pretty incredible stuff. Empowering the players!

2. Decentralized Finance (Defi): It is no surprise that DeFi is taking the world by storm at the moment, It is producing incredible life changing opportunities. You can currently earn some fantastic rewards on the Illuvium yield farm. More info here:  https://staking.illuvium.io/

Illuvium is a DAO (decentralized Autonomous organization ) The projects direction will be determined based by the governance of the ILV token holders.



Please note that the longer you lock your yield farming the larger the APY %.

3. NFTs: The artists at Illuvium were poached from world-class studios in gaming, cinema and entertainment. They have already produced some of the most incredible, beautiful NFTs available right now. The Spartan Squizz is my favourite... look how incredible it is. (click the link here to see the moving version: https://imgur.com/Nr9RI1x)




This project is truly the trifecta when it comes to new, disruptive, and high growth industries. I expect to see massive growth out of this.





What is Illuvium and how do I play?

Illuvium is an RPG and Collection Game built on the blockchain.

You are basically a monster hunter set out to capture creatures called Illuvials, some rarer than others.

Players use "shards" to capture / collect Illuvials.

Illuvials (of the same type) can be fused together to form even more powerful Illuvials with different abilities. You can fuse rare Illuvials together to form even rarer Illuvials.

Illuvials will have affinities which are the basis for their abilities. Affinities are elemental. Water, Fire, Earth, Air and Nature. Once ascended, these affinities can be matched together to make mixed or more powerful affinities. For example air + water = frost, fire + fire = inferno.

There are also 5 types of classes for Illuvials (fighter, guardian, rogue, psion and empath). As with affinities, once ascended, Illuvials can mix the classes to create new classes. For example fighter + rogue = slayer.

Not all alien biomes (the regions in the game) will be accessible without first unlocking "Obelisks.” If you put the time, you can discover a way to unlock an Obelisk, and gain access to new areas, with new illuvials to capture and collect.

As players capture Illuvials, capture rates on those illuvials will change. Over time they will become harder and harder to get, increasing rarity.

Users collect Illuvials, shards, imbues, weapons and armor by playing the game. These items can be used to enhance your gameplay or sold on the Illuvium Exchange (IlluviDEX).

Players use their capture Illuvials to battles other players in competitive arenas. Winning will ultimately earn you ILV.





Illuvium vs the competition:
I have been watching the blockchain gaming space closely. Axie Infinity has been getting a lot of attention lately... Let me tell you, Illuvium is far superior to Axie infinity.

Please see the comparison chart below that shows how much more substance it has. It is the fair, transparent blockchain game for the people!



Please note I did not create this table, I found it on the Illuvium Discord. The market cap figures have changed slightly since this table was created, however it still paints a pretty clear picture that Illuvium is currently heavily undervalued, but has the right foundation to blow Axie out of the water.
 



Conclusion:
In a nutshell I compare this game to an online, better, alternative version of pokemon.........on the blockchain........on steroids......Where players can monetize their game-time and collectibles. Do not miss this opportunity to be part of this revolutionary gaming experience.

Remember to always do your own research! As mentioned I am not a financial adviser, never invest more than you can afford to lose!

This game is scheduled to launch in public beta in late Q4. This is a chance to be early to the party, and this is the prime time to invest!
I have personally invested thousands into ILV,

I am staking all of my tokens at https://staking.illuvium.io/

I believe in this project so much I am locking my rewards for the maximum amount (365 days) for increased yields. Please see below:

I wanted to educate this part of bitcointalk on liquidity mining because I have been making some really good profits.

Someone reported it and it got moved into the service discussions part of marketplace (which does not seem like the right place to me).

What is your opinions?

Should Liquidity mining be acceptable to post about here?

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5349340.msg57463821#msg57463821






Now I present to you a true gem! The Alpaca Finance Defi Platform


Platform Name: Alpaca Finance
Native Token: Alpaca Finance Token : https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/alpaca-finance/
Chain: Binance Smart Chain (BSC)
Telegram: https://t.me/alpacafinance (english)
Docs and Tokenomics: https://docs.alpacafinance.org/
Website: https://www.alpacafinance.org/


What makes this Platform Special:


-This Platform is super safe!  IMPORTANT!
Alpaca finance has close to $1,000,000,000.00 in total value locked in the protocol (Yes you read that right.......... $1 Billion).
This Platform has never suffered an exploit or Hack
There are no known bugs with the platform that jeopardize users funds
I have personally had a large sums of crypto with this platform and I consider it one of the safest I have ever found.
9 Audits across multiple services: https://docs.alpacafinance.org/transparency




 




-Lending and Staking
[lending] Lend your ALPACA, BNB, BUSD, USDT, TUSD, BTC, ETH and get Interest-Bearing Tokens (ibtokens). (for example stake BNB and get ibBNB)
[staking] Stake your ib tokens to get even more returns!
Currently I am enjoying lending and Staking BNB for a juicy 23.93% APY







-LYF FARMING (Leveraged Yield Farming)..................the true magic of the platform
Alpaca finance is the largest Leveraged Yield Farming platform on the Binance Smart Chain.
This exciting feature gives users many more strategies over traditional yield farms.
It essentially gives users the ability to short / long different assets with less capital. Let me explain:
Users pick which LP pair they want to yield farm with, they then choose which asset they want to borrow out of the LP pair, when the assets borrowed decreases in value then it becomes cheaper to pay back.

One of the statements I frequently hear is that yield farming is not profitable in a bear market. This is totally not true when it comes to Alpaca finance. The following strategies can be adopted during a bear market:
Yield farm with stablecoins (currently earning between 20-30% APY). If you believe in the USDT being under collateralized then yield farm with BUSD/USDT borrowing the USDT, if USDT crashes then it will become super cheap to pay back meaning you will make some pretty hefty gains. If USDT does not crash then you still make the 20-30% APY

Alpaca also offers other stablecoin farms: USDC-USDT, TUSD-BUSD, etc. By using leverage on stablecoin farms, you can get much higher yields on stablecoins than Aave, Celsius, or any other DeFi platform. Their business model is quite ingenious.

Another strategy to adopt in a bear market would be to short an asset you believe will drop in value. For example if you believe ETH is going to drop, then put stablecoins into the yield farm borrowing ETH to pair with the stable coin with. When ETH drops it becomes cheaper to pay back and therefore you are essentially shorting ETH

there are many more strategies users can adopt to maximize gains vs normal yield farms







-NFTs / Art / Telegram:
The team can be contacted easily and is actively engaging with the community
Alpaca Finance have some great artists behind them, they are releasing some pretty cool NFTs awarded to users for engaging with their platform.
Take a look here: https://galaxy.eco/alpacafinance
The team has also created some of the best telegram stickers I have ever seen, there are hundreds of them and they are quite humorous.
Here is a sample of the NFTs available:

                   


Conclusion:

I believe the Alpaca Finance Platform to be extremely safe. I have trusted them with my own funds and will continue to use and support the platform.
I have seen the ingenuity and integrity of the developers. I was using their platform before Leveraged Yield Farming was launched and many doubted that they were going produce a working Leveraged Yield Farming platform.
I believe their protocol will empower farmers to employ new strategies unavailable on other farms
Always do your own research, I am not a financial adviser, there are always risks associated with defi platforms, I see this risk as being low but there is always a risk. Never invest what you cannot afford to lose.

Enjoy the profits!




12  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Bittawm's Intro to Liquidity "Mining." The new most profitable form of mining? on: July 15, 2021, 05:42:06 AM
I consider myself a veteran bitcointalk OG miner. I have conducted millions of dollars’ worth of group buys here on bitcointalk, owned my own large scale farms, I have had access the latest miners before they have hit the market, I have worked with power stations and some of the largest mining hardware manufacturers in the world.

Mining has been a big part of my cryptocurrency journey; I have been involved with mining in a big way. This brings me to my next point.

There is a new form of "mining" that has some great benefits over traditional Proof-of-Work mining. Most notably higher profitability. This new method is called Liquidity "Mining"
It's a big part of a recently booming segment in blockchain, DeFi, and I am here to share my knowledge and experience.






What is Liquidity "Mining"?
Generally, most Defi protocols earn revenue from 2 main sources:
Source 1: Trading fees – Some users will want to swap one token for another on a decentralized exchange protocol (e.g., UniSwap). The protocol takes a fee (~0.3%) but gives most of it (~0.25%) to users who loan tokens (i.e., provide liquidity) to the protocol, which is needed to enable trading.
Source 2: Borrow interest – Some users will want to borrow tokens on a borrow/lend protocol (e.g., Aave), generally to leverage up their trading positions. The protocol will charge borrowers an interest, keep some of the interest for themselves, but give most of it to users who loan tokens (i.e., provide liquidity) to the protocol, which is needed to enable the loans.

Liquidity mining = being a Liquidity Provider. This means holding tokens of projects you believe in and loaning it to various protocols to enable their function. In return, you earn some trading fees (Source 1) and borrow interest (Source 2). The kicker is these protocols often will give you additional token rewards (denominated in their tokens) to incentivize participation, which will boost the earned interest of your loaned tokens to pretty high values (20-100%). If you don’t believe in any project, you can also loan out stablecoins (e.g., USDT, USDC) and earn 5-20% interest on them.






Let’s take a look at some of the challenges traditional miners face:

- Hardware Cost:

PSU costs
Miner costs
Connection costs (switches and cables)
Racking
Transportation costs
Long-time miners will admit that would have had much greater returns if they just bought cryptocurrency and HODLd instead of buying hardware to mine with.

-Electricity Cost:
Miners are power hungry; they are expensive to run, even when sourcing a cheap power.

-Miners become obsolete:
Miners are not constant money printers, there becomes a time when the power cost exceeds mining rewards even in bull markets, this is because mining is an arms race and eventually a newer more efficient miner is created, rendering older miners obsolete.

-Heat / extraction expense:

Miners produce heat, this becomes an issue when you have multiple miners running at once. I have experienced timber warping as a result of too much heat. Miners have to invest in extraction to keep miners running at a healthy temperature, this adds to direct costs and on-going costs as you need to power your extraction solution.

-Miner housing and security:
Miners need to be housed and watched over, this adds yet again more expenses to an already expensive process.

-Miner maintenance and miner management:
Hashboards fail, stability issues, connection issues. One miner may be manageable but have you ever managed 100? 1000? you get to a point where they need full time maintenance / management.

-Setup time:
I remember when I got my first 100 miners; I was under-prepared and certainly underestimated the time / man power involved with setting up. This is often overlooked.

Scalability issues:
1 miner is easy to cope with, but how about 1,000,000 miners? Even with dedicated teams and farms I could consider this close to impossible.

Hardware Scammers and vapourware:
There are many hardware scammers. People impersonate manufacturer representatives and pop-up manufacturers that sell vapourware with no intention of producing any hardware.

Pre-Orders / delays:
Many hardware manufacturers fail to meet delivery dates, in some cases when buyers place orders miners are super-profitable but by the time the hardware is delivered profit is almost non-existent.

Mining difficulty increasing and manufacturers over producing:
Mining difficulty goes up in general meaning miner profitability goes down over time.
In some cases manufacturers produce so many miners that profitability absolutely crumbles. For example I remember when bitmain over-produced hundreds of thousands of Antminer D3s that were earning hundreds per day, by the time they got delivered users got unprofitable, unstable, shitty miners.






Now let’s take a look at some of the issues Liquidity miners face:

Rugpulls and unsafe platform operators:

Some platform operators are straight up thieves (much like hardware scammers). It is important to assess the risks involved with each platform.

Impermanent loss (also known as IL):

When providing liquidity. You often provide a pair of assets. As these assets diverge in price, they lose a bit of value compared to if you just held them alone. This is because the value balances of the assets in the pair need to remain 50:50, so if one of the assets decreases in price then a portion of the other paired asset will need to be sold to buy more of the lesser valued asset. However, this is usually offset by some juicy platform returns or by only providing one asset to "mine" with. Keep in mind that single assets will not produce as high returns as paired assets.

Capital:
It takes money to make money; you are literally making returns from your capital. The more capital you have, the greater the returns.





Benefits of using Defi platforms and Liquidity Mining over traditional Proof-of-Work mining:

Higher returns:
APRs can be crazy high, especially if you get in as soon as platforms open. (in some cases we are talking hundreds of % per year)

Considerably more scalable and manageable than mining:
With a $100 million investment, liquidity mining on Defi platforms is much more manageable as you can spread the capital across multiple platforms. Some platforms have billions of dollars of total value locked. I would hate to imagine the work involved with a $100 million dollar mining farm.

Significantly less costs:
No power cost, no hardware maintenance costs, no rent costs, no security costs, no heat extraction costs, no transport costs, no hardware costs, no setup costs.

It is possible to avoid impermanent loss:

If users choose "mine" or farm with a single asset then they will never suffer IL, however the rewards will be considerably lower than Liquidity mining with a pair of assets.[/size]





Now I am here to share my knowledge of what I have learnt so others can experience what I have experienced, I have been totally swayed from traditional mining and knowing what I know now.....I will not go back to PoW mining. I mean as a hobby mining can be fun but this Defi stuff is an absolutely incredible life changing opportunity.

I am going to keep this thread alive and share helpful information that can hopefully help you all some good returns. Keeping in mind this is not financial advice and I am not a financial adviser, remember to DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH and read up about risks involved. I will do my best to share safe farms with honest operators and answer any questions you have.

Most of these platforms communicate with Metamask wallet, the first step would be downloaded metamask and creating a metamask wallet and adding the network you want to farm / mine on.
By default the Ethereum network will be added but you will need to add other networks, some suggestions would be:
-BSC network (Binance Smart Chain)
-Matic network (polygon)
Keeping in mind there are many more networks.

STAY TUNED FOR SOME EXCITING OPPORTUNITIES!

13  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / Bittawm Defi Platform Review - Mozartfinance.io - VIOLA LAUNCH on: June 05, 2021, 03:20:02 AM
The Defi Space has been incredible if you haven't noticed. People are making fortunes overnight. I personally have migrated from mining hardware to DeFi and have experienced some mind blowing gains.

You can check my credentials here to see I have conducted many group buys here on bitcointalk, here are a few:

Every single group buy that was conducted all of the btc was sent directly to me with no escrow, this was because we needed to pay for the mining equipment before it was sent. I vetted the manufacturers and guaranteed that if the miners were not delivered then I would pay the crypto back to the buyers in the event that the mining hardware was not delivered.

LINK TO ORIGINAL MOZART FINANCE THREAD:         https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5327465.msg56997891#msg56997891

I present to you the launch of the VIOLA TOKEN (the second token on the mozart finance platform)
Mozartfinance.io





What makes this special?


  • Only way to get VIOLA is to farm with MELODY and VIOLA (at least for 72 hours before non native farms are added)
  • This will increase the price of MELODY tokens, for one MELODY demand will increase and farming with MELODY will also burn 20% of the tokens pushing burn pressure onto MELODY
  • 2% burn tax on every tx and harvest lockup for 2 hours
  • Anti-Whale system - any transfer more than 0.5% of the circulating supply will be rejected, as supply grows the ration will be reduced
  • No Liquidity, No Supply,  all liquidity and supply will come from the farmers

Conclusion and Links:


I have been farming MELODY since the beginning and have sold a little on the way (especially before the elon crash) But since I have been loading up on more and farming and hyper compounding in the MELODY-BUSD pool. Now with the launch of VIOLA I am expecting MELODY to increase in price.

PRICE CHART (can only be viewed with chartex pro). I have been conducting analysis for the telegram group with some good results.



RISK DISCLAIMER:

-Investing in any defi project is risky, do not invest what you cannot afford to loose.

-Liquidity pairs can suffer Impermanent loss, google this if you have never heard of it before. (it can be avoided by staking single tokens not in a liquidity pair)

-Price fluctuates significantly more than bitcoin

ENJOY THE PROFITS!

Now, onto the good stuff. The review:

I present to you Mozart Finance and the PIANO token:
Mozartfinance.io

This token is on the Binance smart chain.

If you are not already on the Binance Smart Chain then download Metamask and google how to add the BSC network to metamask. You will thank me later, gas fees are factors less than the ETH network.

I have been making a fortune at Moazart, The launch was a little rough dude to some mistakes the dev made. But the team stayed committed and now the community is stronger than ever.

We have been riding the wave since $4.50 per PIANO and compounding earnings. The APRs are huge ranging from 600-6000% at the time of writing this.





What makes this special?


  • the tokenomics of this coin include a 1% burn on every transaction made. Meaning it is naturally deflationary. Also 50% of the deposit fees go towards buy back and burn of more PIANO
  • Soon enough the emissions (how quickly the coin is minted) will be lower than the BURN. Which is unheard of for a coin that is only 3 days old. A lot of other Pancakeswap inspired coins just print and print and cause the price to crash
  • the well known Migrator (rug pull exploit) code has been removed
  • External Audit was released before launch (not often does this happen)
  • Liquidity is locked for 8 months, meaning the team cannot dump the coins.

ENJOY THE PROFITS!








EDIT:

This project has been resurrected since the hack. The devs are working their asses off to make this project a success.

There has been some crazy APRs (over several million % APR at launch).

Currently the APRs are in the hundreds of thousands of % per year (still very juicy). In particular the MELODY-ETH pool is sitting at 500,000% APR.

We know the APRs will not stay this high but even a couple of days in the hundreds of thousands of % APR is some good reward.

I think the price will raise back to $25 within the next week too.

Picture below for your reference

As you can see I am putting my own crypto in because I personally believe in this project despite the bumpy road it has been.

17  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / AtomMiner [AM01] - FPGA - Auto Profit Switch - Bittawm Trust Review on: December 04, 2020, 03:58:20 AM
Alex at Atomminer has created a cool, micro FPGA miner. It barely uses any power, similar to a light bulb and operates silently.

This miner currently automines the most profitable algo (auto profit switching) and is currently pulling over 1200 satoshis per day in altcoins.

Alex is also developing the AtomMiner AM02 which will have significantly more chips and in lieu it will have significantly higher hashrates. This will also have the auto profit switch feature.

This miner requires an RPI or controlling computer to operate.



The Specs:
          
Algo        Hashrate    Power    
Keccak/Keccak-C 540MH/s    18W    
SHA256        500MH/s    16W    
Blakecoin        1200MH/s    13W    
Gr0estl        32MH/s    10W    
Skein2        44MH/s    6.7W    
Myriad        32MH/s    9.8W    
sha256t        180MH/s    10W    
sha256q        150MH/s    11W    
odocrypt        50MH/s    7.2W    
blake2s        1200MH/s    12W    
blockstamp     300MH/s    15W    
tribus        30MH/s    10W    
blake2b (GLT)     250MH/s    10W    
blake2b (TNET)    250MH/s    11W    


The advantages:

  • Super Low Power Consumption
  • Silent operation
  • Auto FPGA Reconfiguration (profit switching)
  • Small and lightweight (desk miner)
  • hashrates comparable to GPUs at 1/10th the power consumption
  • No heat
  • FPGA versatility - Multiple algorithms supported
  • Future bitstream opportunity - Even more algorithms that have not been developed yet
  • 3 year warranty from manufacturer

    Fore more features see here:
    https://atomminer.com/miner



    Manufacturer website: https://atomminer.com

    Please contact  atom@atomminer.com for any queries

    Alex has been a pleasure to deal with right from the beginning, I trust Alex and would feel comfortable placing more orders.
