The PlebBase initiative was born out of personal experience of how complicated, time-consuming and sometimes dangerous it is to find a suitable company to mine Bitcoin.
Many Bitcoin mining providers offer a good service, but are difficult to find on the Internet because their own offer is not optimised - this makes research particularly difficult for investors. It is also difficult to compare providers because information is incomplete, investors' questions are not answered or people simply give up due to complicated websites.
The research process is usually as follows: search for providers via search engines or on news portals where Bitcoin mining providers present themselves from the best side via paid advertising and therefore cannot provide a validated service offer. Video material on video platforms, reading the comments under the videos, analysing countless forum posts, subscribing to newsletters - some of which are chargeable - and registering on social media platforms to obtain information are also popular.
Unfortunately, it is also very easy to find many scammers or dubious companies that seem to suggest professionalism. However, if you look at the details, you will find many negative testimonials from many investors.
Regardless of how you do it, there is no transparent and verified platform specialising in the requirements of investors on which Bitcoin mining companies can present their own capabilities in detail and on which you can quickly make comparisons.
At PlebBase, Bitcoin companies are listed if they have passed rigorous vetting processes and have a proven track record of providing a good, transparent and trustworthy service, which does not stop at the initial verification. We actively monitor the providers on a daily basis, observing the voices from the testimonials, social media, direct feedback and recommendations that reach us by e-mail and other sources. Only if the company continues to be rated positively will it remain in our database.
We are independent, do not operate any Bitcoin mining facilities ourselves, no online shops for ASIC miners and are therefore neutral and free from conflicts of interest.
We are driven by security and transparency. Made by plebs, for plebs.
