I've got a question around the approximate expected contracts' return on investment. I'm getting a little confused with how hashing power units are used interchangeably within some of these contracts (MH/s, kH/s, GH/s etc...)

For instance, if we all agree 1 MH/s = 1,000 kH/s, then a 28,000 MH/s Scrypt contract would equate to 28,000,000 kH/s. Now, using a number of different litecoin mining calculators, 28,000,000 kH/s would generate approximately 672LTC per day which as much as I'd like to think it's true, it sounds way too over inflated for the small 0.026BTC required investment for such contract.

Am I missing something out here within my calculations? Apologies in advance if the answer is very straight forward.

Thanks

Re: [HAVELOCK] (HIF) Havelock Investments Fund

We offer 2FA, however not all of users take advantage of this security feature. 

Over the past couple of months many of our users have been victims of phishing sites.  We have begun the option of manual withdraws to provide them with reasonable time to challenge the withdraw request.



I don't believe I was offered this option. So does this mean users can decide whether they want to opt in instant withdrawal at their own discretion?

We are processing withdraws manually.  About twice a day.



Is there any valid reason for this and how long will this last for before the service is back to normal?
Thanks

Re: [Havelock Investments] - Havelock Mining Fund (HMF)

is there anything left to buy there or everything turned into scams or became unprofitable? there were some difficulties with them and their funds if i understand correctly

I've used Havelock since the beginning and over time I've spread my investments across multiple stocks. The one which to date seems to be most stable, credible and durable is B.MINE. With difficulty having massively slowed down in recent months, this is more than ever a decent investment.

Wherever you decide to invest, my advice is to spend quality time reading very well all of the Ts & Cs, understanding exactly what these companies provide. My experience told me that even the most credible business plans can easily go belly up in no time.

Overall, as per all Bitcoin based investments, I still wouldn'tt recommend investing anything you can't afford to loose. All of these investments remain high risk as noone can really predict what the future holds.

What worries me the most at the moment is the fact that I'm unable to withdraw anything from Havelock and hoping to hear from anybody who's going through a similar situation.

Is anyone else having problems withdrawing from Havelock? It's the second time I'm trying to process a withdrawal and over 2.5 hours later it's still showing under the pending transactions.
Surely BTC transactions don't take this long..

Re: [HAVELOCK] PETAMINE - 1,150 TH/S HASH RATE (15GH/S per Unit)
by

So, if the latest vote passes, I'm guessing that this now means that there will be no future increases in total hashing power?  Does this mean that Peta is now equivalent to CEX in terms of operation? 

Does anyone know if CryptX is planning on adding any more capacity in future and creating new POs?  If so, I imagine that the price per GH & therefore per share will decrease accordingly.

This is certainly an interesting development which potentially changes the game significantly.

Previous updates suggest Cryptx is in the process of developing their own mining chips/gear. If that happens, this company will develop new dynamics making this investment a lot more attractive to shareholders:

1- Easier, faster and cheaper access to additional mining equipment = less reliant to third parties like Bitmine that have messed us about

2- More control and accurate forecasting over future profitability

3- Potential new revenue stream for Cryptx and shareholders on the back of mining gear sales (as a result of Cryptx becoming a manufacturer like KNC or BFL for instance)

Re: [HAVELOCK] PETAMINE - NEW IPO, NEW HARDWARE, 1,500 TH/S HASH RATE

From email

Dear unit holders,

As the IPO is running towards an end, we would like to inform you about where we are and what is going to happen.

Current Status:
Currently, about 11,085 units are sold during IPO, which brings the total of outstanding units to 77,291. We increased hashrate from 7.55 GH to 15 GH/share on Monday, which brings the total hashrate of PetaMine to 1159 TH/s.

Why does it matter how many shares are sold in IPO? We now have 15GH/share, so what would be the benefit?
The more shares sold in IPO, the less CryptX has to pre-finance, we currently pre-financed 964 BTC. If and additional 10,000 shares are sold in IPO, the loan would be reduced to 530 BTC, with complete IPO sold out, this would mean, no loan has to be paid back.

What will happen after IPO?
Dividend payout will resume next Friday (June 6th), we propose to alter the dividend / reinvestment ratio to 50/50. So 50% of net mining revenue will be paid out as dividend. The remaining 50% will be used to repay the loan of 964 BTC CryptX has pre-financed to pay for new hardware, after that funds will be used to further expand PetaMine.

Team CryptX

CryptX, will dividends from the last two missing payouts be included in next week's dividends?
