Genesis-Mining Update #2: Happy then Dissapointed

in #genesis-mining7 years ago

Many people are promoting Genesis-Mining to benefit from their Affiliate program. I am not. I am only sharing my experience with fellow steemians. Please check my first post on the subject for more details about my X11 contract with them

5 Days

I have been with Genesis-Mining for 5 days now. Here is an update on what is happening.

First payment mystery: partially solved

As I mentioned in my first post about Genesis-Mining, I got my first payment of 0.01798747 DASH. The only problem is that I did not receive the payment in my wallet. I discovered the reason soon. Next to the payment, there was an info tooltip. When I clicked on it, it displayed the following:

Payment Address is Empty ...

the reason for this was that I did not set the address of my Dash wallet in the My Account section. So I went to my Exodus wallet and copied the Dash address to Genesis-Mining. So, if you buy a contract from Genesis-Mining, make sure to set the address on day one.

A HUGE increase in payouts on 2nd Day

The second day I woke up to see that Genesis has given me a very good 2nd payment. It was 0.03318335 Dash. This a 84% increase over the first payout. I was so happy.
Moreover, the amount was transferred to my Exodus wallet. However, The first payment was not sent yet.

Customer Service

I sent a short message to customer service asking about my first payout. I immediately received a response to my email. I was happy when I saw the quick response time, only to discover that it was an automated response saying:

2 days passed without any further response. Then I noticed the ticket link in their email. I checked it out to discover that they have responded already.

Disappointment But Mystery Solved

The response had the solution. They said:

Hi Sadekj,
thank You for contacting us!
As I can see on your account everything is okay with your payouts, You can also check it here: https://chainz.cryptoid.info/dash/address.dws?(my_dash_address).htm

Also, notice that your first payout was accumulated on your account and after You've added your wallet You received your payout for mining day 03.07.2017. together with a payout for mining day 04.07.2017.

Thank You for understanding!

So, I did not earn 84% more on day 2 after all. In fact I have earned less than the first day. What a disappointment!

thank you for sharing your experience with Genesis-Mining.. lot to think ..

You are welcome.

WoWWWWW Nice post

Thank you. Glad you liked it.

genesis is not worth it

Hi @coeurdelion. I have read so many contradicting statements about GM. So, I decided to try it my self and post the results regularly.
What about you? Did you have an experience with them ?

everyone is saying it's great only because they want people to buy with their link to get 3% more hashpower or bitcoins, I buyed a 2 year contract monero mining for 250usd 1 month ago. First day winning 1$ now only 0.65 so I don't think I will make profit with that, depends on mining difficulty and price in 2 years but I'm a bit sceptical, better investing 250$ in monero directly I think.

Based on that, you will get your initial investment after a year. The second year will be all profits. Not a bad deal.

depends on mining difficulty and price in 2 years
Agreed

better investing 250$ in monero directly I think.
That is true only if the price more than doubled. If it stayed the same, mining might give you better profit.

not If I loose 20- 40% of my income per month, in 2 years or 1 year I will make a post to see how much I made and if it's really worth.

Hope you the best of luck.

thanks good luck to you too :)

you should have invested that amount on ethereum or dash... monero is far less profitable... but in the meantime if the price of monero skyrockets then you'll be happy...

A very good point.
For me, I am hoping DASH would skyrocket :)

I hope evolution would have a nice effect on DASH's price. Lets wait until then.

Me too.

yes I hope so :D

mining income are never the same every day... mining income are dependent on the number of blocks found by the pool on which genesis-mining mines...

Yes, I agree. There is a "luck" factor into it, but by time, the effect of this factor becomes less apparent.

keep us updated! I am looking into Genesis Mining, but I am hearing that you barely get your ROI... let us know :)

I have been hearing lots of contradicting reviews. That's why I decided to try it myself.
I will try to post any important updates.

the same thing is happening with me...
