iShares MSCI China UCITS ETF | ICHN

iShares MSCI China UCITS ETF | ICHN

New ETF on the look out. It exposes the investor to approximately 85% if the Chinese stock market and it includes big names like Tencent and Alibaba which has primary listings on the HKEX and NYSE respectively.

However, the issue with this etf is that it has a very small trading volume which can range from 300+ to 10,000+. In US$ value, it is only about $1,500 to $53,000 for a price of around $5.3141. In addition, it is not listed on LSE but on Euronext which has a higher commission for trading. The small fund size of $37mil might also explain the relatively high total expense ratio of 0.40%.

Hence, I will continue monitoring for lower expense ratio and higher volume before plunging into this ETF. In the meantime, I will continue gaining exposure by buying EIMI.

Electroneum Cloud Mining Ended

Electroneum Cloud Mining has ended today. I had not used this service since 2018 when it was cloud mining. At that time, it was burning my phone and the battery which led me to stop using it. However, I only started again these few days and now the "free" ETNs are gone. So much potential ETN earning lost over these 2 years. It is sad but they introduced AnyTask for users to earn ETNs by completing tasks created by others. I believe it should be something like Fiver but I did not check it out as I was not interested. I shall find out how to sell off my ETNs or to hodl since it has risen by 337.2% over the last 30 days.

The referral programme has ended too. Seems like the only way to earn ETN is either through CPU/GPU mining or AnyTask.

Coastal-City Game - SCAM

Coastal-City Game is a SCAM

It wasworking well with people investinig money in and are able to withdraw until 1 fine day, the website stopped working. I have invested US$1 which was converted to RUB which was not as liquid and the exchange rate is way higher. Since this is a known High Interest Investment Yield kind of game, players have to be prepared that it will collapse anytime.

I am just sad that I did not have sufficient time to cash out more than US$1. I got into the game too late.

Use this referral code EBF7BA to enjoy 1% bonus of everything that you mine.

Electroneum is a cryptocurrency that is based on the cryptonight algorithm. It enables mobile mining via the application which simulates mining based on the hardware of your phone. Hence, it will not use your phone to mine (no battery drain and hot phones) but simulate and provide you with the coins that you deserve.

ETN coins per day: ~ 4ETN
Threshold for ETN coins to go to wallet: 10 ETN (worth about US$0.05)

The tedious part is to convert the ETN to your own country currency which I have not find out. I believe it needs to be ETN -> BTC/ETH/XRP (common coins) -> USD -> SGD or straight to SGD depending on the exchange.
