Hi guys! I know I said I wouldn’t have an update until later in the weekend but we’ve got plenty discuss now as the industry has been busier than expected. Maybe the most the introduction of the new promising newcomer GramStock which I think a lot of you might like, so let’s start things off with a quick look at that shall we?.

GRAMSTOCK INTRODUCTION

GramStock was launched just a few days ago and last night the admin decided to join Premium listing on MNO. He also purchased the top banner on the MNO monitor. So let’s see what its all about. First of all, the investment plans offer some moderate but profitable returns that can keep GramStock sustainable in the long haul – 8% to 8.6% for 15 business days. As the initial investment is already included in the daily profits in GramStock your total return after the three-week period will be from 20% to 29% which is quite a moderate return. As with most similar program GramStock‘s rate of interest is fixed and you get a higher return if you invest a higher sum. The basic minimum to invest is $20 which can be deposited via PerfectMoney, EgoPay, or OkPay. Despite GramStock also mentioning BitCoin and SolidTrustPay in its FAQ section I can’t see either of them available in my account, so I can only speculate that the admin might add them in the near future. My first withdrawals were processed instantly, although the admin asks for 12 to 48 hours to pay manually, therefore, I believe instant payouts are not always guaranteed and leave some room for maneuver.

On the technical side of things GramStock does look like it might be managed by a professional admin. He not only cares about a nice looking layout for his site, but also runs it from a heavily modified H-Script and a dedicated server with by Koddos with SSL encryption by Comodo. Utilizing a beautifully made website there are four professionally translated versions available for viewing, while there are lots of contacts including a live chat and phone support, and featuring an extensive FAQ section and professionally written texts. Experienced investors will always treat GramStock as a regular HYIP, although I believe the program truly has what it takes to become one an industry leader. Time will tell if that is going to work out for GramStock, but the start has been good. The first welcome newsletter posted on GramStock by the admin Alex is below:

“Good afternoon dear investors!

XAXISINC – FIRST CYCLE COMPLETED AND PRINCIPAL RETURNED

For the three weeks since my review of XAxisInc was published on MNO (click here to read it) I haven’t heard any updates from the previously very eager admin Elizabeth. But despite the recent lack of communication XAxisInc has during these weeks turned in a flawless performance and made consistent payouts to PerfectMoney, SolidTrustPay, and EgoPay. The first investors of XaxisInc have already received some decent profits and I myself was paid my principal back tonight as well, since my 1% for 15 business days term was completed today. As the total lifetime of XAxisInc has already exceeded seven weeks I imagine the first investors from the longer-term plans offered by the program – 2% for 30 business days, 3% for 45 business days, 4% for 60 business days – either got to the break-even point or completed their investment cycle as well. I would like to wish the admin every success and hope investors see some good profits.

DUBLINCRYPTORIUMLIMITED – BACK TO PAYING STATUS AFTER CALCULATION ISSUE SOLVED

DublinCryptoriumLimited recently had some script issues which affected their ability to correctly calculate members profits. This occurred after the program came recovered from a DDoS attack on its servers. I had moved the program to Waiting Status earlier but then the admin finally fixed the account for me and everything with DublinCryptoriumLimited is back to normal, including its #1 ranking on the MNO monitor.

In fact the program has rightfully occupied the #1 spot on MNO for many weeks now since first coming to my monitor upon launching back in November 2013. Since then DublinCryptoriumLimited managed to become the leader in the HYIP market, and reminded us what a really high quality program should look like. Over the last four months online the administration surprised everyone with their utmost professionalism and efficiency in customer services and maintaining a perfect website. This has been powered by a unique script which pays members by the second. With a $50 minimum requirement to invest via SolidTrustPay, EgoPay, PerfectMoney, BitCoin, OkPay, or direct bank wires you have a unique opportunity to earn, but the main advantage to DublinCryptoriumLimited is the option to withdraw any part of your principal or profits any time you wish. Just remember that once your account drops below $50 you stop getting paid. Otherwise, you can withdraw and get paid instantly by DublinCryptoriumLimited without commissions or delays. As the program might not be so easy to understand compared conventional HYIPs then please read my detailed review of DublinCryptoriumLimited (published here) where I analyzed the investment process in detail. Hope it helps, but the only important point for now is that a rather minor calculation issue has now been dealt with and the program is back in full swing.

COMOCREDIT – MOVED TO PROBLEM STATUS

I can’t help but wonder that if the admin of ComoCredit really wanted to get his program back to normal why he refuses to respond to some of the perfectly legitimate concerns of investors and monitors (MNO for example) alike as to why members’ are no longer being paid. I thought that the point of the lengthy newsletter posted two days ago was to calm people down and prevent them from panicking while restoring ComoCredit‘s website over the following few days. Now that the admin remains silent and the site of ComoCredit is apparently working on autopilot with some withdrawals processed instantly while other’s aren’t even credited to members’ accounts I tend to have second thoughts about his true intentions. I’ve decided to move ComoCredit to Problem status on MNO tonight (down from the earlier assigned Waiting status) because I believe this leaves no uncertainty and will show clearly what I think about the admin’s plans, the alleged maintenance, and what I really believe is going on. In my honest opinion it’s all about stalling tactics to attract more deposits from unsuspecting investors while paying mere pennies until Tuesday. I cannot see ComoCredit getting back online and I gave up on the admin because I believe he’s going to scam. I might be wrong of course, (indeed I hope I am!) but only the time will tell what the future holds for ComoCredit. So far the admin has hugely disappointed not only myself but all his followers most of which do not take his stories seriously. I wished that was different in case of ComoCredit, because I really liked the program, but it looks like it’s going to be officially moved to Scam status on my monitor soon. Under no circumstances therefore would I recommend any further investments in ComoCredit which I believe is already in the process of scamming its members.

BTCARBS – LATEST PROFIT REPORTS ISSUED

BTCArbs (reviewed here) as members will need no reminder of, is one of the new breed of HYI programs affording investors greater control over their accounts in return for paying a variable rate of interest. In other words it’s 100% up to the member, not the admin, how long an investment term you join for but as a sort of trade-off the admin pays a different rate of interest every day based (I guess) on the program’s performance. Such programs have proved enormously popular in recent months, and BTCArbs is at the forefront of this trend. They claim to be involved with the trading of BitCoin in the online exchange markets, and speculating on when its value goes up or down. BTCArbs differs from a lot of other HYIPs however by issuing daily profit reports to its members explaining what’s been going on in the business and therefore how they arrived at one figure or another on any given day. Over the last two days for example members of BTCArbs will have been paid profits of slightly more than 2%, or to be exact 1.33% for Friday and 0.75% for Saturday (always a slow day due to being a weekend). Both updates can be read in full below:

“Friday 21st March 2014 – 1.33%
Despite the continuing strange price situation between BTCe and Bitstamp, today worked out well from an arbitrage perspective, primarily due to the false news that Bitcoin was being banned in China. It appears that in the early morning hours, an announcement was made that the Chinese government was planning on banning Bitcoin. While such legislation would make sense, especially given the capital controls that are in place in China, it turns out that the news was false. The founder of BTC China, Bobby Lee was able to confirm with the government that no such ruling was made, and that the news was likely created with the goal of influencing the markets and decreasing the overall price of Bitcoin. In doing so, the news caused a sharp (but brief) drop down to $556 on Bitstamp and the other exchanges, before quickly rebounding to nearly $600. During this time, there were plenty of arbitrage opportunities that we were able profit from. In doing so, today’s result worked out to 1.33%.”

“Saturday 22nd March 2014 – 0.75%
Today was the first time in a very long time that we’ve seen the price of Bitcoin at BTCe remain higher than the price at Bitstamp for the majority of the day. This was great not only for moving funds back to BTCe (where the price is typically lower) but the spread of as much as 1% at times allowed us to make a profit in doing so. Being the weekend, today’s result is lower than average, but still pretty good. The result for March 22nd is 0.75%.”

SOLIDTRUSTPAY – SCHEDULED SITE MAINTENANCE AND VIDEO CONTEST EXTENDED

And finally for tonight, especially as it’s a weekend, I’d like to finish up with news from the online payment processors dealing with the online HYIP industry. Users of SolidTrustPay will probably be aware of this already, as will regular MNO readers as I’ve covered this in earlier posts, but STP have launched a series of promotional contests that involve members making tutorial videos that are viewable to the general public. I don’t think I need to explain the entire process here again as it’s already been covered on my blog and also on the official STP news blog as well, but I’ll just recap on the basics. Every couple of weeks STP users are invited to create an online video around a certain aspect of the payment processor. This will change as they go along, and might include things like how to join, what it can be used for, how to withdraw, and so on. The rules are simple enough – just keep your video under five minutes, make it in English, and post it on publicly accessible websites. The winner will be the video that attracts the most traffic, and the producer collects an easy $50 cash prize for himself. STP will then re-post all the winning videos on their own news blog. The first leg of this contest then has been extended from the intended closing date of next Tuesday March 25th to midnight on Tuesday April 1st instead. I’m not sure why because it wasn’t explained (maybe existing entries were all dreadful rubbish for all I know!) but whatever, you now have an extra week to make a video if interested.

If you’re not interested then perhaps the second update from STP will be of more practical use for you. It concerns some downtime that happened earlier this weekend, Friday to be exact, though to be honest I had absolutely no idea this happened at all and never noticed anything. But if you had problems logging into STP yourself at some time, then please note that they were under maintenance for about half an hour or so between 17.15 and 17.45 Eastern Standard Time last Friday. No big deal, but I have to say kudos to them for at least paying us the common courtesy of telling their account holders this was going to happen. It says a lot about their professionalism and their dedication to their members because most other websites probably wouldn’t have bothered. Both updates from SolidTrustPay can be read in full below:

“SolidTrust Pay Tutorial Contest EXTENSION!
