Just in case anyone is wondering, I am no longer updating this, due to the fact STEEMIT is VASTLY SUPERIOR.

So I'm using this to host pictures and stuff. Most of the below are screenshots which I will link the sources to in my articles

Cryptos and EVs, both 4 digit (plus) gainers

Here's my update on Cryptos and $DOLV. 

 I won't be further comparing or reviewing cloud mining services because they are much less profitable than simply buying and holding almost any cryptocurrency, a waste of money IMO.

 Also, HYIPs are starting to make their rounds amongst newbies, educate your friends on the dangers of these programs. It mostly seems to be hitting the Forex MLM groups the hardest. People new to currency and technology looking for easy gains fast with no research, motivated by sign ups and leading their teams to losses.

CRYPTOS

Since Apr 8th:

Ripple went from $.03 to a high of $.42 (settling around $.30)

Bitcoin went from $1190 to $2370 (and climbing still)

Ethereum went from $48 to $193 (and climbing)

Litecoin from $10.80 to $33 (and climbing after a drop to the 20s)

Even DOGE coins almost tripled. You gotta be kidding me.

I have a blend of Alt coins on an exchange, some look very promising. One could have easily 10x'd their investment with minimal effort buying Ripple or other Alt coins over the past 6 or 7 weeks.

STOCKS

$DOLV

Upon the leaking of these pictures, $DOLV pulled out of consolidation in the .03's while awaiting the ticker/symbol change from FINRA and consolidated financials on the Reverse Merger. A few updated business descriptions on the Wall Street Journal and others, and a couple of articles here and there. No PR (other than the original announcement on Apr 6th).

IN MY HUMBLE OPINION. When the symbol change hits, and especially the financials released along with official PR, this flies. It's extremely undervalued for an Electric Vehicle company launching two of the longest range EV's on the market this year.

Compilation of DD can be found here on Ihub

This article compares it to Tesla in it's infancy.

"Dolat Ventures is experiencing sharp growth with accompanied volatility, but the sky really is no limit as this is one of the most promising growth sectors out there. If Dolat can implement the right business model then we could potentially see the next Tesla emerging"

Getting started with Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies

 I've had at least a dozen people ask me in the past week

"How do I get started with (or buy) [insert cryptocurrency]"?

There's a good reason for this. Bitcoin, Ripple, and others are making headlines, SKYROCKETING in value, and becoming globally adopted solutions for many problems blockchain technology can solve

So if you find yourself here, I made this for you. My recommendations for getting started:


1. Sign up with Coinbase. 

Coinbase is a wallet that holds and allows you to easily purchase Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Litecoin. Using my link will give you a $10 bonus on a $100 purchase of coins (a 10% gain off the bat!)




2. Sign up with GateHub.

On Gatehub you can easily exchange Bitcoin for XRP (Ripple), ETH (Ethereum), and a few others.



3. READ MY OTHER ARTICLES on HYIPs, Mining, Wallets, and Faucets for more information!

4. Do your research. Learn how to use google, download a good crypto news app. Reddit is good too.

Legit Cloud Mining Services

As many of you may know, there are THOUSANDS of bitcoin and cryptocurrency mining service websites out there. 

MANY of them are GARBAGE! HYIPs (High Yield Investment Programs) commonly masquerade themselves are legitimate mining operations. Often with suspiciously high returns, or claims to "trade cryptocurrencies" to yield a profit. As explained Here a majority of these are scams.

The most profitable way to mine cryptocurrency will always be to invest in your own hardware, do your own maintenance, run your own rigs and software and put a lot of time and effort into it. That is simply no question. 

There are services that will do this for you, no hassle, but they all charge fees of some sort. Up front costs to get you started as well as ongoing maintenance fees. There has to be something in the business model for them worth selling you their lucrative hashing power instead of simply using it themselves.

Below, are the best reviewed, most profitable, legitimate cloud mining services I have found. Later I will add more detail to each about why, and attempt to do all the comparitive math for you. But instead of making everyone wait on that, you can check them out yourself in the mean time.

1. ViaBTC  

ViaBTC was recently calculated to have the quickest ROI on bitcoin mining in comparison to Genesis, Hashflare, and Hashing24, some of the biggest competitors. 

The text below reads "Calculated 2017-04-03. Note that the exact date is important since the cryptocurrencies are very volatile these days. This will impact payouts and break even days."

2. HashFlare

Hashflare is another highly rated option with Ether, Dash, etc.

3. Hashing24

Hashing24 is another major competitor, boasting the lowest prices on hash rates, I haven't investigated myself (coming soon)

4. Genesis (use code M6LN2Y)

One of the biggest names in the industry. Not my first pick for bitcoin and recently sold out of x11 contracts. But, a reputable company.

5. Eobot

Eobot offers over 30 different cryptos to mine. Claiming the best rates of course. (will review soon)

6. MinerGate

Minergate has an awesome selection as well, very impressive site and a handy calculator. Another top rated service.

7. Hashnest would have made the list, but apparently their Antminer's are entirely rented out. So they may be good. But that doesn't help us now. (their new 1 btc minimum contracts are available.)

PLEASE use my links and/or referral codes to sign up, and I'll keep the content coming. I will revise and further compare these services and do the math soon, out of time for today. 

I'll leave you with the BEST bitcoin faucet!

My final thoughts, buying and holding these crypto currencies may yield better returns. Do the math yourself. I'm exploring all the options and likely doing both.

More on HYIPs, Cryptos

 So Coinfactory finally quit paying, as well as Coinexpro. I was in profit on both, and correct to be skeptical. I have since done more research on these HYIPs (High Yield Investment Programs).

 A few good places to start your reading are:

http://www.hothyips.com/before_invest.html

http://www.viral-alert.com/

http://www.talkgold.com/forum/

https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-best-trusted-Hyip

And from there you can do your own research. My conclusion is that these are all Ponzis, if you get in early enough you can make some btc (I have) but they do shut down eventually as we have seen.

 Do I recommend them at all? No. I really can't, with the rate cryptocurrencies are rising in value on their own its a more stable and safer investment to simply buy and hold them in a secure wallet.

 I only invest btc I can afford to lose, and am currently only using my profits from the last two, so none of my own money is on the line. From .43 deposited in CF I withdrew .91 and .55 deposited in Coinexpro yielded about 1.3 I had a few affiliate comissions that helped, compounded a bit despite it being risky. I was luckily successful. 

The newest one I'm in is ExaHash (update: which stopped paying prior to breakeven, .2btc loss)

I'll keep you guys updated, plenty more to come.

Bitcoin links!

Hello everyone! 

Bitcoin and Ether hitting all-time highs! 

Just wanted to drop a few cool links I ran across on my Bitcoin journey.

1. Buying BTC

 Cex.io has very modest fees, and is among the cheapest places to buy BTC if Coinbase is limiting you.

2. SAVE over 15% when shopping on Amazon with Bitcoin!

 

Need I say more?

3. A list of the Best Bitcoin Wallets of 2017

Free stuff and saving money on groceries!

If you don't know by now, there are a ton of apps and services for saving money on your weekly shopping trips. 

"A penny saved is a penny earned" as the old adage goes. 

 I am a firm believer that whether you're saving or making money, what counts is the positive impact to the bottom-line, and ultimately your accounts.

 So everyone should know about Walmart's SavingsCatcher by now. But there are a few other apps and tricks that put WAY more cash in your pocket.

 My FAVORITE app by far is Ibotta. With Ibotta you get cash back for scanning your receipt on VERY COMMON ITEMS you're likely buying already! With tons of bonues and cash back on ANY gallon of milk or $2 back on a Axe shampoo, $2.50 back on Bud Light even! You're really wasting a ton of money if you don't take a couple of minutes to use this, even without any other apps or websites. 

 Plus joining through my link will put you on my TEAM to earn extra bonuses and a FREE $10 welcome bonus with your first receipt!

 The best resource for finding all the deals I've come across by far is Krazycouponlady.com. 

 This site does all the research for you, tells you which coupons/apps to use, separates by store, and has a TON of educational content to get you started off on the right foot. They list weekly lists of "moneymakers" and extremely good deals, indicating what to stock up on, and more.

 Those are my two favorite resources, along with Checkout51 and MobiSave, there are others listed on Krazycouponlady.com It's basically a one-stop shop for cutting your grocery bill in half.

 Got anything to contribute? What do you use? Feel free to share below.

A word on HYIPS

I am caution everyone to do their own research before considering investing in HYIPs or any similar program.

 Coinfactory appears to be a standard HYIP (High Yield Investment Program), with a shelf life. The business model is not practical, it is a very new company, and there are many others like it.

 The fact others were posting their withdraws in forums drew me in, and I have had no issues withdrawing so far, however I don't trust it to stand the test of time in the long term. The power to compound a small deposit is too high. I fear the day will come withdraws will exceed deposits and the company will not be able to generate enough to cover it.

 A better strategy for playing these HYIPs may be to get in many of them with a small amount each and withdraw immediately. I may continue to play with them, but I will be even more cautious from here on out.

 I've currently earned .42 of .62 active deposit with coinfactory and withdrawn $55 ish a day for 7 days now. Continuing to withdraw daily.

 Personally, I'm about to invest in a newer one which looks better than coinfactory, called CoinexPRO.com


CoinexPRO.com promises 10% daily for life, has automatic withdraw, and a ton of other features that make it better than Coinfactory IMO. I'm putting .05 BTC on it, and will set up auto-withdraw. If it survives 11 days, I'll be in profit. (update: Just put another .5 BTC on it Monday)

I'll keep everyone updated!

Update 4/19: In profit on coinfactory, withdrawing around $200/USD a day between that and coinexpro as of yesterday.

Update 4/25: Both are still paying!

What a week!

 So this week was exciting. 

 $DOLV peaked over .08 before consolidating (before its next run upon the release of consolidated financial statements imo, check the DD on Ihub. 

 Some of my triple zeroes ran, FCGD from .0001 to .0005 amid announcement of coal ventures (I sold a partial position, recouped original investment, all house money).

 Withdrawing daily from coinfactory.io to the tune of about $50 USD with no issues.


 So is this all I do? Absolutely not. 

 Is this a typical week? Not quite. 

 But it is certainly noteworthy, nobody wants to see "average" on instagram.

Bitcoin Mining

 I've had a TON of people asking lately so I've decided to compile a quick guide on how I set up a bitcoin wallet and started cloud mining for profit. 

 I've only found TWO free bitcoin miners I like, Bitminer.io, and Startminer.com which generates about .0006 btc daily ($0.71 USD as of today) EACH. So about $10 a week, not too shabby. But as far as paid services, my favorite is Coinfactory.io. 7% daily ROI in perpetuity on deposits. Daily payouts. No Gh/s calculations necessary, no contracts, no bull. 

Here's how I got set up:

 1. Go to Coinbase.com and set up a wallet if you don't have one already. You get $10 free when you buy your first $100 worth of bitcoin! (that $10 is just a couple dollars shy of the upgrade cost of .01btc for V1.1 of one of the free miners, which would then earn $15/wk instead of $10)

 2. Set up FREE accounts with Bitminer.io and Startminer.com !
Free money is a no brainer!

3. Check back and watch your balance grow! Withdraw daily or compound it back in and generate passive revenue 7 days a week, even while you sleep.

More to come!

$DOLV

  I originally alerted $DOLV on my Facebook Mar. 23rd and secured an entry of $.007 a share. The rumored reverse merger with a chinese electric vehicle company turned out to be true when the news officially dropped a week later and within two weeks $DOLV has powered it's way up past $.047 several times. I don't believe it's done running yet. I am also long in $ELTZ at $.007 coincidentally. It closed Friday at .018

 Update: 

$DOLV has spiked to the .08s and back down. Consolidated financials should be released in the next week.

$ELTZ has settled around .022


 A compilation of the due diligence and news for $DOLV can be found Here and here:

Hello World.

 My goal is to help everyone I can be as profitable as possible with a variety of means I have personally and successfully used myself. I am always open to new ideas and hearing what has worked for others as well, so please don't hesitate if you have something to contribute.

 I've won grand prize sweepstakes, eaten countless free meals as a mystery shopper, invested in stocks, forex, and crypto-currencies, and more. I have a strong background in computer networking and seven years experience working on robots and plastics machinery.

 I left my career in plastics/robotics behind to build a brighter future, work for myself, and spend more time with my family. My plan is to network with as many investors, entrepeneurs, and like-minded individuals as possible to combine our talents and ideas to succeed in our endeavors.

 There will be more to come as I will attempt to update this page regularly with articles, links, and ramblings I feel others may find of use. This is more of a test post than anything, so check back soon!
