One year on noise cash
Even though I wasn't active the entire year, in August I marked one year since I made my first post and since I joined noise. In this article, I would like to write about my experience and time spent on noise, as well as some of my opinions regards it. I also saw @Duvinca post about same subject, and we have similar experience there.
For noise cash I heard long time before I joined it. I was active on another social media app, and I have seen a post or a two about noise from time to time, but I didn't give much attention to it. I noticed most of the people that shared news about noise, with time, stopped using this other app. Since they earned much more on noise, no wonder. But I have to admit, I was skeptical at first. Now that I look back, I am not even sure why, since I was already familiar with crypto, but mostly I had bitcoin. I guess the main problem for me was how to sell that bitcoin cash that I earn, because my country is not accepted by many sites. It was a bit complicated, but not that hard, in the end, so I am sad I didn't join noise much earlier, when I first heard of it.
The first day, I was already in love with it. There were many familiar faces there, I liked the layout of the site, I loved the fact that they are very strict and against spam and plagiarism, and I could see the first day there that I can earn more than all the other sites that I used at the moment, combined. Sounds too good to be truth, right? Some of my friends joined at the same time, more people that I know were coming day by day. They added the invite feature, so it was all just growing and getting better. The freak that I am, I started making detailed journal about my earnings there and realizing how much I can earn there, with only my post and content.
I can't say I didn't have a few not so great experiences there (content stealing and some rude users), but that is expected, and it's not sites fault at all. I joined read cash as well, but it was long later when I started using it. It was all good until the end of November. In November, price of all crypto went up, and so did BCH price. At the moment I decided to sell some of my BCH because I knew I will need that money in the next months, but also I didn't want to see all, just because I wanted to be one BCH holder, and I believed price could go even higher. Unfortunately, as we all know, that didn't happen, and from that moment price went down. In December, there was a new feature on noise called 'free tips'. I realized it was present before on site, but removed. At first, I was very excited about it and I got it in the first days since the update. I saw it as a great opportunity to reward content more or less in value, based on our opinion. Sadly, this new feature was made that way, that you can choose now much % you want to keep for yourself, and many users took advantage of it. Instead of rewarding others, they rewarded themselves. Also many gave the least possible reward, and kept 80% of it, which was far less than how much like was worth before, Not long after, this feature become only way of earning, and like didn't have any value. This, along with low BCH price, resulted in less earnings for me, but still, I thought it was just a phase, and that it will get better.
In January, it got worse. I was among the rare that took the least % of the reward to themselves, I posted only original content, I was active daily, yet free tips were taken from me. I didn't get any amount of it anymore, and I thought they will come back, but they didn't, not till this day. This meant I need to give tips back from my wallet, and basically earn nothing. Also, since I couldn't give like before, it resulted in losing many followers and tippers. Still, I kept posting there and had hope I could earn again.
Even though I made very detailed statistic of my earnings, at the time, it's hard to tell how much exactly I earned. This is because I didn't know it's better to do it in BCH, not $, and also in the meantime I changed wallet, and used second one for other sites too. But what I know for sure is, by the 9th of the November I made ~0.4BCH, and I sold 0.3BCH at the time, for about $200. Which mean I earned 0.4BCH for 2 and a half month use of noise. With the price that was at the time, that was a pretty good amount. Until end of November I made another 0.2 BCH, for December I am not sure, and then in the January I made 0.11 BCH. After that, I was using it less and less and stopped my detailed daily statistic, as I didn't even make cash out daily anymore.
In July, I stopped being active online, so since then I haven't posted there. I am not ready to leave yet, but I just don't wanna post while not being able to return support to everyone. I don't know why I lost my free tips, and I am sure I didn't do anything bad to cause that. I wish noise had some kind of support which would make using the site much easier. I know many people just made new accounts, but I didn't want to do that.
This would probably be a kind of farewell letter to noise, but I saw the news. They are making noise app. This is now my only hope I could be back to noise and things will be good as they did one year ago. Also, I hope there will be some kind of admin or support. So, I guess this is not a goodbye, yet, but it's hard to believe noise could be the same place as it was a year ago. It is still in demo mode, but if you didnt join yet, and you want, you can use my link
I also need to say a huge THANK YOU to this platform, because this is how I started learning and discovering more about crypto, specially about BCH which is now my main crypto and crypto that I earn the most. This have show me another world of opportunities, so no matter what happens, noise will always be in my heart and reason why I am into crypto and BCH as much as I am now.
In this article I shared some screenshots from how it was before, and how it was later and how it is now.
Thank you for reading my post ^^
Yes it's a pity platform now is not as it was before... at least we were in the best moment I enjoyed there and earned BCH.
