Manyways: Second week mid-week check-in

The “Daily Profit” is showing $714.29 which is 4/7’s of $1,250 which is the expected returns.

Have been playing with some potential returns in Excel which seems simply too good to be true – for clarity, the maths is correct; it’s just whether ManyWays only works up to a point before you lose all your money! Let’s wait and see! Will share in a subsequent post.

Manyways: End of the first week

On the dashboard I can see that there’s a profit of $200 showing (although still under a somewhat misleading heading of “Daily Profit”) but the investment was still showing in rather than a balance.

I left it until it was a full 7 days and a half hour after the investment, logged back in and the balance was showing at $1,200 – exactly as expected!

Wanting to evaluate everything and most importantly ensuring that I could extract funds, I added my bitcoin wallet address to the platform and withdrew the $200 profit to my bitcoin account. It sat in the “Pending Withdrawal” section for about 10 minutes and then was in my bitcoin account (minus fees of course).

Everything worked as documented and as expected.

This was reassuring but I’m still suspicious. After pondering on the risk versus reward ratio, I decided to deposit a further $4,000; partly because I had it in my bitcoin wallet not doing anything and partly because I wanted to see what happens next and if this is a scam then it’s an amount I’m prepared to lose.

With a balance of $5k we’re now into the Silver level of returns which is at 25%.

Investment setup and the dashboard immediately shows a Daily Profit of $178.57. Will see what happens in a week I guess!

Manyways: Mid-week check-in

Have been keeping an eye on the account, but there’s not really anything to see or report! There’s a “Daily Profit” summary box on the Dashboard which looking at it is actually a cumulative profit for this investment amount, as we’re four days in and it’s showing $114.29 which is exactly as to be expected, being 4/7’s of the $200 profit we’re expecting.

Had a few WhatsApp messages from my Account Manager at ManyWays just checking how I’m getting on. Nothing too pushy or concerning although still rather suspicious of the entire enterprise still. Let’s see what happens on Saturday at the end of the 7 days.

Manyways: Setting up and first investment

Following on from my dissatisfaction with Alchemist AI, Manyways was appearing on the Trustpilot views occasionally as an alternative. But, being cautious and and sceptical I did a bit more digging around Manyways.

There was really very little online which did concern me, but virtually everything was actually either really positive or was a review / comment by someone who potentially hadn’t quite grasped trading / investing and their comments actually highlighted their misunderstandings more than anything else.

In a nutshell, Manyways requires you to commit to an investment amount (minimum $1,000) for a period of 7 days. Over this week, you can’t withdraw or anything and they say that there will always be a minimum return. The returns are banded as:

  • 20% return with investment of between $1,000 and $4,999
  • 25% return with investment of between $5,000 and £19.999
  • 30% return with investment of between £20,000 and $49,999
  • 35% return with investment of between $50k and $1m.

Deposits and withdrawal are via a selection of Cryptocurrencies.

Setting up the account

The account creation was simple enough, requires ID and to setup two factor authentication – all the steps you’d expect. The platform is fine – it’s been overengineered to feel like an application and the downside is that it’s very laggy and slow from a user interface perspective but when you know to just be patient it’s all fine.

Depositing

I used bitcoin as my funding source (as was already setup and as it turned out had a decent amount in there) so deposited $1,000 of bitcoin into the account. This appeared in the “Pending Deposit” section of the Dashboard and within 25 minutes was available as a balance.

Investing

Navigating to the Invest section, I was at the bronze level for 20% returns so placed an investment of $1,000 and that was that! There’s no further options, nothing to do, nothing to really see so left it there.
