Things change quickly in crypto,
One day FTX was the knight in shining armor coming to the rescue the next day it´s the dark horse. That is kinda what I and I think many Noise.App users have been experiencing these last couple of days.
And as always it´s all about the money. As I mentioned in my previous post about the Noise. App:
As I have been tracking a bit my daily donations, which are expected to come from the platform I can tell you that they are sufficient to keep me active. Let's say they are between$1 and $2 a day for these last two weeks.
But with Noise, you can never assume it is normal or will remain as such. Because these last 24 hours I have noticed a downside change. This change caused my donations to drop to about 50 cents a day. Now from past experiences, I know Noise love to play with their donation algorithms so this might be temporary.
Temporary???
And I have not been the only that noticed this, hence people start reaching out to Noise´s part-time developer Simon:
That is the great thing about Noise, it´s one big mystery. There is no way to contact anybody with your questions. There is no official communication, and there has not been any for over a year. And there is no one sending money to anyone.
Well, most of the above is true, except for the last part. After I previously exposed the Donations came from the same address during the testing phase, they now have multiple addresses. But that does not fool anyone. Noise and the people behind this BCH adoption promotion platform have not changed. The funds were previously provided by Noise.Cash are now distributed by Noise.App and coming from the same whale pockets.
As I can not provide any proof I will not call the guys by their names, but to have a name let´s just call them Marc & Co.
It´s more about what this guy "ShitPost something" is saying.
As of that date, November 5th, donations changed drastically.
Did Marc & Co go Bust?
The 5th of November was a black day for many people just starting on the Noise App. Where they previously were making between 15 and 40 cents a day posting and enjoying the app, on Nov 5th there was not a cent. Normally they got like 2 or 3 cents every couple of hours but now the notifications from their BCH Wallets remained silent.
It was until the next day (Nov 6) they got one, but no longer the number of donations they were accustomed to. Fewer notifications meant less BCH (just FYI this data is not from my account but someone close to me):
And this was prior to that dark day:
And as per "ShitPost Something´s" comment this happened to multiple Noisers. While others still received frequent donations but a lot smaller in value than before.
Should we Worry?
Yes, you should always worry about using a platform that does no communications and provides no instruction or guidelines regarding monetization. This is Uber Centralized, meaning you have no control at all. They can make the faucet stop dripping any second.
Hence one never knows, but I have been Noising around for some time and what I can say is that Noise like to experiment. And it looks like they are currently experimenting with their donation algorithm. Oops, I guess I can´t say that because Noise does not send the donations.
I just saw some indications that they changed it again on 7 Nov, still not back to what it used to be. But give them some time, they will figure out a way that doesn´t break the BCH bank and will keep you and me Noising!
