I guess there's one other option - create an honest investment for us to engage in...
Which is why I created something that not only couldn't lose money or file bankruptcy, and allows anyone to help build revenues, but also made initial supporters whole in less than 1 year. Those who held since the beginning have seen a ~300% return in weekly distributions as well as a ~400% appreciation of their holdings. Perhaps investor burnout is the reason why the efforts have gone largely unnoticed, but it still hurts to see threads like this that promote failure after failure and ignore the longstanding positive projects.
Yeah, your projects are the rare case of projects with a good result. But i'm impressed with your numbers. Do you mean 400% worth of the shares and 300% return over the complete lifetime of your projects?
As far as i remember you were involved in mining. I can't imagine that this would be so outstanding rewarding.
Am i wrong?
I meant that the initial underlying investment was sold for $1.54. As of July 1st, 2015 it had paid out $4.08. Currently they are worth $6.67.
If you were to lump all gains into 1 number and ignore the last two months of payouts (the current quarter's data isn't available yet), your $1.54 would have become $10.75 in just over 3 years, and an even $20 if you held the BTC and never converted to fiat. That is a 698% gain, or about 232% annually (1,299% gain or 433% annually if you never converted to fiat). I cannot promise those numbers going forward, as it is harder for me alone to generate these returns as the club grows. If the community were to embrace this model and participate with the hosting of units and support of our products and services, the gains for investors could continue to beat the market by a wide margin.
We are involved in mining, running a pool with a custom payout method, selling a new kind of silver physical Bitcoin wallet (as well as a few other items), and have several other ventures that are well past the planning stages.
