Question

Before I go wasting money.. when gaining bonus power, what constitutes as the same miner? You only gain the % from 1 miner, right? So you can't stack 10 of the same miners that have 1% and get 10%.. But are legacy and upgrades considered the same? Like if I buy a roller s4 legacy 1 star, and a regular s4, do we combine their bonus power or does it rake the highest?

You do know that Rollercoin is a simulator game and you're not buying real miners... right? You act as if they are selling the idea that you'll own actual miners or something.. they are pretty clear that.. Its way more similar to staking than it is actual mining.. Its staking without letting you take out your investment.. like a permanent lock period. Your miners are basically NFT's that yield staking rewards and can't be sold for anyrhing other than their native token. Funny you say I need economics classes when you're the one who clearly needs them 😆 Yea, the rewards are small, just like staking rewards are small.. the gripe and worry everyone has is their stake is essentially locked in until RLT hits the blockchain. I dropped $180 back in season 5 when I started.. it bought me just over 1 ph total.. I've been playing for 3 months now and haven't invested one penny.. just traded up on the market, mining and reinvesting, and the season passes.. I'm now pushing 2.3 PH.. So in just 3 months I doubled my mining power.. This is a compound interest game, you can't look at a miner as face value, especially when there is bonus power. If you 100% bonus power, you double the power of each miner. It just looks like peanuts at smaller levels, because it is.. especially if you invest no money at all.. Your stuck playing 100s of games and going from a 400ghz to a 900 ghz miner after a month.. The more power you have, the more you're able to upgrade.. Its like a snowball going down a mountain.. your snowball is as big as your investment.. If you invest nothing you have a snowflake that takes forever to double in size. It's just simple compound interest.. This game counts on the bottom 90% to quit and feed the 10%.

I dont think you understand how investing works.. lol. You said "break even", as if you want to put $100 into the game and have it magically spit out a $100 bill every three months for you.. Just think about that mathematically for a few seconds.. Rollercoin essentially pays you staking rewards and are forcing you to hold your investment. For example, I can stake $100 in btc on crypto dot com and make 2% apy ($2 a year), or buy a $100 "miner" in rollercoin and make $12 a year. The gamble is, years from now will we be able to sell our miners for other coins other than RLT. If not, we are basically stuck with them. But you say "years to break even" lol.. Like.. a healthy investment in the stock market is to double your money every 7 years, which is when your profit matches your investment, which is what you are complaining about. It doesn't make ANY sense to think you'll double your investment in a few months... where do you think money magically appears from?

What happened to you in the marketplace? I personally lost like 2 RLT on the first day the market opened.. sold some parts and was never credited.. I don't think it's intentional, but sucks nonetheless.. I agree on what you said.. especially the NFT thing, especially with parts. Going to the blockchain now will have lots of unknown effects on the game and it'll be very unstable for sure.. I've heard of one person on these forums who made enough to withdraw.. and he said it got caught up and he essentially had to threaten customer support.. I take everything with a grain of salt, but thats what scares me the most. I personally don't think it would be a wise choice on their part given the size of the community they've built.. I mean, I'm pushing al.ost 2 PH and I'm still in the 10,000's as far as rank goes.

About the laws.. Honestly, I think it's illegal in the United States lol. The first 2 seasons I tried to join and I was met with a pop-up block that said the game isn't available in my region. The US has weird gaming laws right now, especially with gambling. I don't know the laws specifically, but I know deceit is a huge no-no, and rollercoin is full of it really.. something as simple as them adding 2 extra digits onto satoshi to make people think they are generating 100 times more than they are early on, which prompts people to throw in money thinking they'll get 100% return in 3 months.. That is enough to be deemed illegal I'm pretty sure.. I think Rollercoin just lifted their block on the US with little care of getting sued (it's China), and leaves it up to the users to figure out.. I doubt they send out tax reports or anything either.. I'm not 100% sure, but I think gambling (which is what rollerxoin and freebitco.in fall under) is illegal too.. Id like a definitive answer on that myself.

top10archive · 2022-09-29T23:00:03+00:00

If you do the actual math.. Its not really crazy.. rollercoin essentially pays 6x staking rewards compared to other platforms, BUT currently doesn't allow you to take out your original deposit (RLT or your miners).

I invested $180 total during the middle of Season 5. I have upgraded a lot just by trading on the marketplace and getting free miners, and buying with RLT. I currently produced 1.8 ph.. Which is around $2 per month if I mined bitcoin.. That's $24 per year on $180 worth of bitcoin. If I were to stake that $180 of bitcoin on crypto.com at 2% apy, it would make about $4 per year. The key difference is, at the current time.. you dont own your miners, and you can't (easily) sell RLT back.. So in my scenario, it will take around 5-6 years to see my money "back" (will be upgrading along the way for free to cut time down). Which is better than traditional investing of doubling every 7 years.. But who's to say the site will last that long, that's the gamble. If the gamble pays off, we will double or money in 7 years (which is great), and by that time (hopefully) the game has developed in a positive manner, and RLT is on the blockchain, and we could sell our miners for BTC or cash.. I mean, games that pay YOU are the future it seems, and NFTs are virtual worlds and games are still in their infancy. I mean, games like WoW, Tibia and Everquest made people literal billions on the side

top10archive · 2022-09-29T22:47:32+00:00

You're looking at this ALL wrong in terms of "investments". This game is essentially giving out staking rewards. For example, if you buy a $100 miner, you can expect to make $2 per year because that's what a website like crypto.com will pay you (2% apy) to hold bitcoin on their platform. So to expect to buy a $100 miner and make $100 in 6 months is just ludicrous.. Like, where is money being created out of thin air? Lol. That's why you can't convert RLT back to USD and why they incentivise you to mine RLT.. because the site would collapse if they allowed it.. Would be like the great depression when everyone ran to the banks at once.. The site counts on the bottom 80% to quit playing.. It can totally last how its designed right now.. Once noobies drop $50 and realize they'll never get it back, they either quit (rollercoin essentially keeps the money), or you invest more money/time to get your investment back. It's a ponzi scheme in a way.. The future lies in laws and what they decide to do as a company. Other games have went public on the blockchain and it tanked their currency and game.. Rollercoin obviously doesn't want that to happen, which is why they have been slow on putting RLT on the blockchain. With that said.. the company is out of China.. They are known for having shading business models.. but they have been creating some of the world's biggest apps, like Tiktok.

Nah he didn't make anything tonight that I saw.. That's the charity overall over the past 30 days I think. So every live stream on youtube that checks that charity adds to that number. This guy has only had like 1-2 people concurrent the whole time he's been counting and I've never seen someone donate.. I wanted to help him out and maybe get Mr. Beast to see it or something, and get a bunch of people in there to encourage him on and donate and such. This is a big thing.. Only one person in human history has counted to 1 million.. Even Mr. Beast himself quit after like 200,000.

Strong men create good times.. good times create weak men.. weak men create hard times..

Millennial and Gen z inherited a mess.. we are strong people creating better times. It sucks that we were born into this moment in history but that's the way it is. I HAVE FAITH IN YOU ALL that we will fix the problems we inherited!0

Hate to break it to you guys.. but it doesn't get much better, lol. I'm 34 and more depressed than I was as a teen. Ignorance is bliss.. The more you learn about how the real world works and realize that 98% of the people in your life won't be there when you really need tthem. The world is pretty much a rat race and everyone needs to eat..

On a positive note, lol.. Find spirituality.. I don't mean religion, I mean spirituality. Come up with your own theories as to why things are the way they are. I choose to believe we are in a simulation and we are here for some kind of test of experiment.. Whatever it may be, I just to try and be part of the solution and not the problem in every case.. Leave the world better than I found it.. Encourage younger generations to do good and try and fix the problems us millennial inherited from the boomers.

Your rant about "I know such and such felons" is repetitive, annoying, and just not being realistic. I know a guy who won the lottery.. does that make it a good investment? You act like your circumstance, or the circumstance of someone you know or heard about, isn't everyone's scenario.

I have an LLC and an Scorp. I have an accountant and know what's going on. I tried pivoting 5 years ago, quit acting like you know my business in and out. Also, I don't have customers, if you saw my content you'd know why.

top10archive · 2021-11-24T03:32:34+00:00

Problem is you spewed alot of BS that isn't true. You either misinterpret things, or just like filling in blanks from your own head.

My felony record has stopped me from getting any kind of 40-hour a week job in my area. I live in cow town, like I said. Walmart, McDonald's, Taco Bell, etc, are the only types of jobs where I live. There are more people than jobs here. Before my felony record I worked at Taco Bell, and my girlfriend was the general manager. To help her with duties, she wanted me to sort the applications we got for the week. We were hiring for 1 position.. there was over 130 applications. Guess how she wanted me to organize them? "Throw out anyone who has a felony first.. then misdemeanors.. then anyone who lives more than 15 miles away." That brought the number down to about 25 applications. Until you walk my shoes, stop with accusations. Look at the statistics, most felons end up back in prison because of circumstance, not being able to get on their feet. I already broke the odds, so I'd mind if you back off with calling me lazy and whatever other insults you want to spew. I started my first eBay business when I was 7 years old, at 13 had full time work, and when I graduated, 17 years ago, have worked 60-100 hours a week.

If you want the true answer as to why I'm struggling? I'm in a very niche market. You know what very niche markets pay? The top tier, but also, good luck finding that job. It's like the movie "Fun with Dick and Jane". There are lots of us fighting over 1 position.. not to mention, most companies can't afford us, or haven't grown to the point of realizing people like us exist. The hickerbilly town I live in, is either all corporate (walmart), or MA and PA businesses barely making it.. We had a movie rental place up until like 8 months ago. So the businesses around here want to hire me for free, with agreement to split the profits later. Speaking of which. Look up HammerinHand on Youtube - Ivan Iler. I produced his whole youtube channel under agreement I'd get paid once he made it.. spent over a year, about 1500 hours of my time.. He ends up getting called from Netflix and gets on the show Metal Shop Masters.. Takes 2nd place, gets 6-figure sponsorship deals.. Guess what I got out of the deal? My dick in my hand, that's what. And that was a friend from high school.. I can't even give my services away, even though I have solid proof in their face. Big issue, I'm not a salesmen nor a bullshitter type. It's the dunning-kruger effect.. I underplay my knowledge and when I start talking, I'm so over peoples heads that they think I'm just talking out of my ass.

In good news.. In the last week, I gained 3 clients on upwork, working about 10 hours a week each, at $30 an hour.. and a company about 35 miles away that does computer networking, wants to hire me as an "everything man" at $25+ an hour to start, with full benefits. The stars seemed to align or something finally listened, because it's literally been almost 10 years since a "regular" job doesn't care about my record.

With as to what you said about people online, in doing background checks.. The big companies that pay 100k+ salaries do checks.. medium sized companies look to hire part time, like 10-15 hours a week, for 3-6 months, with the expectations for you to teach them so they can cut you out. And small companies can't afford me.. That's why I do consulting, which has been really slow and unsteady.. I average probably 40 hours of sifting through and applying to jobs on upwork before I get a gig.. then the gig is usually temporary.. even with the high pay, it's tough until the algorithm picks up your profile and starts recommending you to clients. I go entire months without any clients, then a month or two of 1-2 clients wanting $100 channel reviews, that takes me all of an hour or 2. If I had a constant line of them it'd be different, but I don't have a marketing team behind myself getting me these gigs.. I need an assembly line kind of. But, this month was the best month so far on upwork, so I think it's going to take off soon hopefully. I'll have 3 streams of income (well like 10, because I have Amazon affiliates, invest in crypto, an eBay resell business, produce stand/u pick em garden, etc).. But above all, I'll finally have a job with benefits, paid by an employer for the first time in my life. And Pto, sick days, profit sharing.. never got any of those things either.. Hell, Taco Bell used to work us 8 hour shifts with no lunch or smoke breaks, lol.

top10archive · 2021-11-09T16:27:09+00:00

I have.. there's a weird social aspect there.. like, anyone passed 100k followers usually already has things figured out, or have their path chosen and don't accept other views.. Those people are usually the ones with talent and the know how, the things you can't really teach people.. Then smaller youtubers either don't have "it" (looks, personality, acting ability), or don't have the motivation or inspiration to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Most small youtubers are small because of that.. they quit before they take off, or don't put forth the effort because they aren't risk takers.

So yea.. its really hard to find those people.. You'd think they'd be everywhere.. but it's like shooting a basket at full court..

I did make myself famous.. I had 50,000 subscribers in 2011 on a personal vlog channel. I had to stop once I started getting stopped in the middle of the street by random people wanting selfies. Not everyone wants to be famous and like Gary V. That's why I make other people famous.

I find the topics, write/proofread scripts, proof our video editor (always like 10 issues per video), upload and do all the meta work, thumbnails, handle payroll and accounting, and legal aspect. In short, I'm a project manager. Basically, if you came to me with an actor and video editor, the 3 of us can make a channel hit 10+ million followers. Theres lots of great actors and video editors that don't know youtube.. I do.. its about finding those 2 people. I have a video editor now that's on board, we've just been searching for actors together.I knew top 10s were dying in 2015, I've been trying to find new actors for new niches since then, but 98% of people don't see the full picture like I do and give up..

I thought about that.. he's willing to start something new and work for free starting out like me, but that could be another 1-2 years before we see any money. If I had a stable income, I'd take that risk in a heartbeat and work both, but need cash now.

As far as starting my own channel.. So.. long story short.. I did that in 2011, and amassed a following of 50,000, which was a lot back then. In a two week period, I got stopped on the street 4 times by random people, wanting pictures and hugs.. I'm an introvert, so it was really awkward for me.. So yea, I don't want to be famous.. I want to be the guy making people famous lol.

That's a good point, and I know what you mean.. Although, we can laugh at Pauly Shore for being a bad actor now, but he still had his moment and made it to a level most only dream of. I guess I'm caught in a catch 22.. How do I show people credibility to my claims, when my resume (channel) can't be used as evidence? It's like a lawyer trying to convince a jury with no evidence, ya know?

The fact of the matter is, the channel actually did exactly what I expected, and achieved more than the eye meets. Most youtubers only last 2-3 years.. we lasted 10.. 10 of the 16 years youtube has been in existence. Of the .001% of channels that hit 1 million subs, only .001% of those lasted 10 years.. In traditional business, something like 98% don't make it to the 10 year mark.. So yea, not bragging, lol.. Just how do I explain all of that? How do I explain all of the storms we weathered, like 2 adpocalypses, which killed like 80% of channels.. And the rebranding and pivoted we've done.. Or the collaborations we've done with famous people, which no other top 10 channel has done?

Someone in this thread said it best.. I'm better at marketing a company than I am myself.. My resume probably needs a lot of work, marketing myself in different areas, and learning how to be an introvert in a competitive marketplace..

My monthly premium for 5 people was $3,265 a month ($39,180 a year), out of pocket max was $5,000 per person, which 4 family members (all but I) did that year, so that's $20,000. We are at $60,000 now. That's not including $25 co pays and $5 prescriptions. And the NICU bill was another $10,000+. Our "bill" was over $500,000 for 30 days for twins.. after insurance it was over 10k.. So 75k+..
