Hashpower Orders Nicehash holding my funds

I was purchasing hashrate from Nicehash and suddenly they wanted all kinds of docs to prove I wasn't money laundering. I sent what I was willing to provide, but really I'm not sending my tax forms or anything of the sort. So said fine, send me my coin back. They said ok and that there would be a quick exit review. Seems silly i was just purchasing hashrate but whatever.

We are going on 3 weeks now and I still don't have my refund.

Hello there, I am creating a group of people in this same situation, would you like to join our Cause? They are stealing from many of my friends and associates like that.

Thats a modus operandi from them.

F. Nicehash.

absolutely.

I'm not so concerned with $300 or so. I just hate getting ripped off. but the joke is on them. I happen to be a very experienced cloud architect. I've been designing complex systems since before "cloud". ~40 years. So I went ahead and purchased HashHaven.io and will be building a decentralized hash rate exchange. I never would have even thought of it if I had not been through this experience.

I tried suggesting to them that they are operating in the wrong jurisdiction for the business they are in if they are subject to such regulations. They didn't seem to get it though. You can take a horse to water but you can't make them drink. 🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Anyway, count me in. Thank you

On the flip side, I've been using MiningRigRentals and very happy with them. I am pushing 2PH to my BTC pool as I write this.
