Just my opinion... It looks like some pyramid scheme.

Ponzi came to my mind too. Maybe multi-level marketing scheme. In any case...

Connect your devices and generate boid, and earn rewards

Sounds boring honnestly. Adding a "social" dimension doesn't change a thing.

I don't have a problem with an informative thread, I do have a problem with personal referrals and therefore unfortunately the link is gone, happy to leave the thread open for a longstanding member.

So why is this one still here, it tells us nothing except, Blockchain, because we can.

Can't say I get it either... coming from a miner. Looks like you would be joining a distributed computing project (which does... I don't know) that somehow incorporates blockchain tech (for what reason... I don't know) and you get rewards (boid tokens, which are worth... I don't know).

It really shouldn't be confusing this many people. When Nicehash was first brought to my attention here on TPU it was immediately clear what it was. This is :confused:

This is 100% a scam... Yes you can gain from it (kind of? useless currency for a currency generator?), but in reality they get majority and you get a tiny slice while using your computing power.

Also any tech firm that calls their platform "Hacker proof" is a red flag to me.

Because some members were shall we say..... looking at it in a more positive light I thought it only fair to keep it open, I gave the OP as a longstanding member the benefit that he would not post known scam material here, if it genuinely is proven otherwise I will be the first to shut it down.

Does it mean that joining this system I don't need to have a supercomputer for mining? It will work on a usual notebook? Or I understand it wrong?

Yes and no. You mine BOIDs, which you can then somehow use to get cryptocurrency. You can mine on anything, but it won't be fast.
