Hey everyone!
We have some exciting news to share with you!
If you are looking for hosting solutions for your ZelNode(s), here is what Pickaxe can offer you:
There are 3 types of Nodes:
Basic (10K)
Super (25K)
BAMF (100K)
The rewards structure works as follows: 25% of the block reward goes to the nodes and 75% to the miners.
The 25% reward for the nodes in itself, will get divided to 15% for Basic, 25% for Super and 60% for BAMF.
The requirements for hosting ZelNodes are quite high, compared to other nodes we've been running on Pickaxe.
Higher requirements mean higher costs. When we look at pricing with, for example, VULTR, you would look at $160 and will have to add extra storage (extra cost of $30). Compare that to DigitalOcean, you won't need to buy the extra storage, but will still have a cost of $160.
When you calculate your ROI (using online calculators), you will find that your estimated return on investment will be rather disappointing with a monthly cost of $160.
What can Pickaxe do for you you?
Obviously we don't want you to overspend, so we are offering ZELCASH hosting at just a fraction of the cost!
A basic node will be hosted for $12.50;
a super for$22 and
BAMF for $75, which is pretty much half the price compared to if you were to host the node yourself.
At this monthly cost, you won't have to worry about maintenance, updates, patches, config ....
Everything will be taken care of by the Pickaxe team, so all you have to do, is collect those rewards!
How does it work?
1 There is NO need to send collateral! You keep the coins in your own wallet.
2 There will be NO weekly/monthly payout, as rewards go to your wallet LIVE!
3 That means NO extra fees!
You can get your own ZELcoin straight from the exchange or you can put your GPU's to use and mine them on the community pool or other pools who offer ZEL mining, remember to spread the hash!
