Hey, what's up? So, uh, I've been completely absorbed in YouTube's cloud mining scheme recently, and last night I went through probably 65 videos, everything about mining crypto without buying physical mining rakes. And what's genuinely alarming is this recurring theme I keep seeing.
I'm talking uh, easily 89% of these videos are promoting obvious fake platforms. I'm watching all this thinking, man, these content creators either know they're scamming people or they just don't care about verifying what they promote. I honestly got really cynical about whether trustworthy cloud mining exists at all because the entire sector seems dominated by fraud.
But uh yeah, I found Arkmine about 13 weeks ago and look, it's still the only app I genuinely recommend. Like I've tested it extensively, withdrawn successfully multiple times and uh it's consistently delivered without issues. Good.
So let me walk through this right now so you see the entire process. So first move tapping start mining. So, uh, here I'm choosing BNB right now, but this app actually processes mining for essentially every significant cryptocurrency available.
But, uh, I'm sticking with BNB for this one. Okay. Pressing continue now.
Excellent. So, at this stage, I need to provide my receiving address. So, switching to my wallet app, copying address back to the app here, and uh, pasting it into this box.
Good. Now, I'm adjusting mining speed and hash rate power. Just in plain terms, uh these parameters control how much computational muscle gets allocated to my mining and the processing pace, but it directly affects what you'll pay.
So cranking these higher means I'll accumulate crypto faster, but uh service fees climb proportionally. Okay, this looks good for me. So next, I'm specifying my target amount.
This displays how much cryptocurrency I'm targeting, its dollar equivalent, and uh the projected completion time. Okay, so now I'm firing up the mining operation. And good, it's running.
And now let's uh give this some time. I'll speed this part up. And yeah, I've successfully mined BNB.
But before withdriving, uh, critical detail here. The platform requires the infrastructure fee paid before processing any withdrawal. It's all itemized right here.
So here's the energy that was consumed. Here are the computing clusters that handled the job plus the network transaction costs. So give me a moment.
Good. Now back to Arkmine. clicking I've sent the payment and uh just waiting for the system to verify everything.
And while we waiting, let me share why I trust this app based on my actual painful experience with scam platforms because um I've literally been scammed twice before finding this. And the first time was maybe 6 months ago when I fell for this platform that was all over Instagram. They had these convincing video testimonials, professionallook dashboard, and I deposited 500 bucks thinking I was being smart by researching first.
And initially everything seemed fine. My account showed mining activity profits accumulating daily. So after two weeks I tried withdrawing $80 to test it and that's when everything fell apart.
They suddenly required a network fee of $40 that wasn't mentioned anywhere. And being naive I paid it. But then they claimed there was a blockchain congestion causing delays and support kept giving me generic responses about 48 hour processing times which turned into a week then 2 weeks.
Then they just stopped responding entirely and I realized I'd been scammed, lost everything. Here's uh the most important advice I can give after learning the hard way. Never trust YouTube promotions or Instagram ads for mining apps.
Most are paid scams targeting newcomers. Instead, always test with the absolute minimum deposit first, like $200, $400 maximum, and immediately try withdrawing to verify it actually works. Because if a platform won't let you withdraw smoothly from the start, they never will.
So yeah, links in the pinned comment and description.
