Not exactly. We are continuously writing about shitcoins, scams and MLM-s here, like Fistcoin, Jaag coin, Invia, Cryptogold local shitbags.

Most of the time, the readers contact us to check things out (I think the same thing happened here as well). For instance we wrote about Firstcoin last year January that it is an obvious pyramid scheme...look how it turned out. Hydrominer is not involved at all, better read again my subsequent post. Let me pull up my info and get back to you. I think I can show you some screenshot evidences as well, but not 100% sure. Time has passed and these cockroaches have more face than a hydra.

Keresem, de sehol se találom a helyeket. Hol fogadják el, mi a cím, milyen cégek/magánszemélyek?

HI, gratulálunk mi is a teljes Bitcoin Bázis csapat nevében . Nincs valami cikketek, link stb vagy anyagotok róla? Örömmel leközölnénk.

Plusz, ha netán ismertek hipertitkos rejtett crypto elfogadóhelyeket, akik megunták a rejtőzködést, pls, jelezzétek: https://www.bitcoinbazis.hu/kriptopenz-elfogadohelyek-terkep/

Hello,

The topic starter has a valid point, and I like to shed some light why do I think so.

One is, Levente Racz (ICO Advisor in the team). He is a well known MLM criminal (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3h_KuoR-uqs), his linkedIn is promoting Invia World, which is a scammer cloud mining company from Austria. The Austrian financial authorities revoke the companies (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQkP-r2uPJc) licence and not because they do not allow mining companies to operate (check out hydrominer.org) in the country.

Back to Mr. Racz. He claims to be a crypto expert but there are zero references or evidences that this claim is valid.

Check the other guy, Peter Sagi from their advisory team. Also claims to be a crypto expert with zero supporting evidence .

I do not know how this project has turned out, but stay out of it.

For the record, I am represent a daily crypto news site from Hungary, called https://www.bitcoinbazis.hu/.

You know, as I read your comment I just realised it. There isn't much coverage about Central Europe in the mainstream EN crypto news sites. And then I realised that thanks to the large Hungarian minority in Serbia, Roumania, Slovakia and Croatia, I can tap in to those countries too, not just to Hungary... or at least to get fresh content out from those neighbouring countries. Actually one of our writer lives in Serbia, he is trilingual. Another has Hungarian minority background lived in Slovakia (bilingual). Yes interested, I'll pm. And yes, we were ineffective promoting this sort of interaction with the local community. And I am sure they have stories.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions, recommendations! I will definitely utilise some of the thoughts here and if you like to share more of your opinions, please feel free.

Hi!

Thank you, I will reach out soon.

Hi - we do sustain with more content and with higher activity on Facebook (the rest of the social media platforms are irrelevant in Hungary, except maybe Instagram which is for the youngest generation). Our strength is in organic traffic + social media.

PPC - definitely going to put more effort in it. Thank you.

Now that so many of you recommend English, we might think on adding an EN section and publish there ONLY the original local Hungary or Central-Europe related content.

We are still based in HU and the mission is the same: 10 million Hungarian with crypto.

Yupp we are trying. Point is, when you go to ICOs for instance and they hear about the 60K, they say sorry, to low. Now with established crypto-companies we didn't try out yet. On the other hand, FX brokers with local branch are eager to advertise on the site but they want you to sign up to their affiliate and then you maybe get some signups. This is a double edge sword 'cos it could go very well but in most cases is too low income to cover even the basic expenditures. Recently had to experience the same story with Revolut.

Hi -

we asked few weeks ago on Facebook the audience, "Would you pay for premium content?" and well, 10% said yes and the majority said no (I think around 200 people voted, so not a huge number but still large rejected the idea). After that we got a bit cautious to introduce it. Still in our mind, but we try to figure out how to make our Readers accept such decision.

Hi,

yes, one of the lowest AdSense payout rate is in HU.

We just started working again with CT for a fixed monthly rate and started looking for others, signed up for Bitmedia and RunCPA.

Selling banners for local companies makes sense IF we have some relevant companies here. We are not keen to display jewellery or sunglasses ads, it doesn't feels relevant.

We wanted to make a co-op with e-com shops selling hardware, GPUs etc. because we have a lot of miner type, DIY, geek type of Readers interested in BTC/alt mining. Also planned to open a e-shop selling Pandaminer last year, but they were really messy last year summer.

Thanks Aaron,

I will keep in mind.

Hi,

Thanks for the suggestions. I am afraid we promoted blindly 1 or 2 scams as well since they paid for the PRs, newsletters etc. But to be honest, no matter the disclaimer that we put out, you just don't want your Readers that after few months they come back to you and say, hey I invested in BitConnect, FirstCoin etc. because of your article. I think those publishers should exercise some restraint and to not promote obvious scams.

Nowadays we work only with AdSense + just started again working with CoinTraffic - so far all good, covers few expenditures but still meagre amounts if you like to develop/reinvest/build/add new things to the site or you think beyond it.

I don't really know too many GPTs, we use one faucet (freebitco.in) which is actually relatively awesome cos 1-2 person signs up to it every day. Now that you mentioned, we might add their banners to some more visible place. Thank you

Yupp - we serve potentially only 10 million people (plus 2-3 million more living abroad) but we still wanna see 10M Hungarians using crypto (we had one of the largest hyperinflation ever in history - we don't want another one again).

Hi,

thanks for the suggestion. Our Analytics shows that our main age group is between 25 and 34 - they represent 38% of all the users since June 2016, second largest is between 35 and 44 with 28%. The age group you mentioned represent 10% of the total readers. What we are a little bit proud of is that we have slightly more female readers (20%) as the industry average (see Huobi report).

Answering the 'Why not in English?' question - one hand, we put great emphasis on quality. No matter if 80% of our content comes from EN sources, it has to be well written, so our readers come back for the content. Second and more important reason I think is the overall lack of proper EN language knowledge in Hungary which hinders many to read about crypto in EN.

Yes, as I mentioned, 80 - 20 between local content (which is usually advertisement from an ICO, or a coffee shop accepting crypto, or a local crypto ad site etc.) and EN source content from major cryptonews sites.

We are not limiting ourselves, on the contrary: we have a clear vision to make 10 million Hungarians familiar with cryptos. Sounds small indeed, but from 60K to 1M is still a long road - if I am a bit realistic. We had in December, January 200K traffic so 1M is doable, regardless the actual BTC price, which still affects your monthly traffic.

Hi,

I would say, very low. 80% of the content comes from the EN sites and the rest local. Problem is, that not much happening around here (yet) and hunting those news down that might be interesting is a pain in the ass. We are partners with CoinTelegraph since 2016 and we posted 2 or 3 guest posts on their site, but problem is still the same: not much happens here - or we are just unaware of it, thus we have nothing to publish on it.

You are absolutely right though! Thank you very much!

Hi,

Not sure why should we create EN version, isn't feels already crowded in EN?
The ICO part - you are completely right. We plan to have a separate section for ICOs.

Thanks for the feedback.

I would add Malta too.
