Last Thursday i downloaded the Energi (NRG) wallet, because it seemed like one of the most potential staking coins. Deposited 60 NRG (about 100 dollar) to see the workings.
Yesterday after about 4 hours of trouble shooting till late in the evening i finally got the staking functionality working.
So today i was hoping to see some staking rewards.... So after 24 hours of leaving my PC online... Nothing happens.. So i was getting more curious and started to read more on NRG staking percentages. (Probably should have done this before investing)...
What i learned was that if leave my PC online 24/7 for the next 130 days, i might get 2 NRG!! That will never pay for the electricity bill.. So what a joke is this NRG coin.. (number #113 on coin gecko)
So after doing some more researching on popular staking coins. They all seem to have the same mechanics which focuses on scarcity. They all try to make you believe that you can make some return on investment if you buy some coins and hodl them. But what they don't tell you, is that your chances of earning some coins drop by a lot when everybody starts investing in the same coin. Not only that you, will never know what your actual reward will be after a long period of staking (100 days plus). So the only thing you can do to increase your chances, is to buy more coins... But when everybody does this or when more new investors join and start staking, your chances will still be the same (or even lower). Its like a barrel full of crabs all trying to get out but everybody keeps pushing everyone down.. The only ones who make returns of investments with these type of coins, are the devs and the Exchanges.
OK, enough of my ramblings..
What i wanted to mention is that ROI-coin really is different! It is really super easy to start staking in. Just drop Roi to your wallet and the amount starts staking, without having the wallet online.. And if you want a bit higher returns, you can deposit your coins. All this can be done with a super easy GUI. And if you still aren't sure about how to stake, just watch mikes video's, that's what i did.
This coin should be massed adopted! Its fast, its simple, and it works! Prices are currently at an all time low: 2 satoshi on altcoins.
What i'm not sure about is, will the interest rate drop when more ROI-coins are in circulation?
