This video is an opinion and in no way should be construed as statements of fact. Scams, bad business opportunities, and fake gurus are subjective terms that mean different things to different people. I think someone who promises $100K/month for an upfront fee of $2K is a scam. Others would call it a Napolean Hill pitch.

If Coffeezilla is a "real fan" then who is this human that's been talking to us all this time?
hey! didn't expect meeting you here
What human?
we thought that coffee was fighting the scammers, turns out he scammed us all in the process.
He's not a cat

Just In case There are some ignorant people : That's a Fake Account! It's a Scammer ! Don't fall for this!
Everyone is talking about trusting the lambo, and I’m just like those suspenders are what sells it for me.
how can you trust a man that cant even trust his own pants?
@@user-lf7nf3kl7t I'm sad you didn't get the reference
This reminds me of when Louis Rossman said he wouldn't take a sponsorship from a VPN company because there's no way to know how secure the service is without taking a super in-depth look at every piece of what's happening. Therefore, it would be at least a little disingenuous to take the sponsorship. Hint hint
Interesting, I guess the temptation is too strong
The bane of becoming a large business I suppose. Gotta keep the ship floating.
Wasn't that specifically about Nord?
@Joker M Indeed they do supposedly prevent ISPs from snooping
All a VPN is actually good for is to circumvent geoblocking and secrurity in open Wifi. It actually doesnt make you anonymous or safe from the government/police at all. If the government wants to spy on you they will i.e. with fingerprinting, etc.
If you want to be anonymous then you'll have to use Tor. And even with that your not 100% secure.
If you want a VPN that you can trust you have to set it up yourself.
Also, it is important to point out that NiceHash was “hacked” at the peak of Bitcoin last bull market. Then they paid back the Bitcoin in the bear market.
Hypothetically if they weren’t hacked but instead secretly sold the NiceHash user’s Bitcoin at the peak, then later bought Bitcoin for much less and then paid back the users in Bitcoin, they would have walked away with tens of millions of dollars. While their users missed the chance to cash out at that peak.
Hypothetically speaking of course...
Is there a way to block youtubers so that thete videos dont come up? I want to block Jayz4cent and linus as there video are really annoying?

Amen

No, I don’t think I will
Yes, yes we can.
I took 9:46 for that just now.
True. Society needs people like him right now. Somebody realistic.
Just today i was doing some research on gpu mining as a side hustle and came across Linus's Video and was planning to install nicehash but youtube gods have decided to save me by recommending this video to me....
Thanks Coffee, you are doing gods work.
this should teach you to not take youtubers at face value and do your own digging, you never know who has an angle or what they stand to gain from what they're saying.

Yes, Hash... 😎
@@featuredchannel7928 sure they did
@@featuredchannel7928 THEY DID THE SAME THING TO ME. I couldn't find any info about it online. What the fuck
Linus addressed this issue in his latest WAN show tonight. Said he was unaware of NiceHash's founder's history, and that they will be careful in the future.
Still didn't delete the original video and addressed it in his podcast which most of his audience (such as myself) don't even watch despite the issues. The fact he has to rely on commenters to point out his bullshit after the viewer has given him ad revenue is the corporate-mindedness he claims to be against.
@@discipleofdagon8195 could be that he has a legal obligation to not remove it.
@@discipleofdagon8195 lmao how can it be a knockoff, it's like 3 years older then the h3 podcast, also isn't that format just called a podcast?
@@steelfox1448 ah, my bad. It only really came to my attention (coming into my recommended) over the last 2ish years but still my point stands
@@discipleofdagon8195 "h3 podcast knockoff" is possibly one of the most stupid things I've ever read. You understand that format of content is just called a podcast, right? Ethan didn't invent podcasts.
Hodl and get the revuminers and you will thank yourself
Plot Twist: He's mining with nice hash in the background
I like how linus was super enthusiastic about CZ on his last podcast despite not really watching the content and knew he had this video made about him. Man I wish I were a fly on the wall when he watched it after that WAN show.
I imagine he was quite happy, I have watched a ton of coffezilla videos lately and none of the people come off as well as Linus did. He made a mistake where as every other video is rightly calling out real scammers
This Coffeezilla guy came out of nowhere, no one saw him coming. He’s deadly.
Well technically based on the video historyhe's been around for awhile. I'm not familiar admitted enough with him but it's been at least a few months.
like a wet noodle..
I knew him from CoffeBreak
He doesn’t have a shelf full of books so he must be a fake guru
Nah he's a sophist. There's a lot of those gaining views lately.
I mine crypto, I wouldn’t take LTT’s advice on it. Really, most RUclipsrs in that space are paid to shill stuff.
I also don’t use NiceHash.
Sooo what do you use...?
@@Camilo19832001 BFGMiner
I use nicehash but i take my money out and put it in coinsquare as soon as im able.
@@jasonpritchett7145 from this video, it seems nicehash is too risky to keep on your computer
Nicehash isn’t the best place to mine anyways
Well that was a piece of valuable info. I just found a nicehash miner on my pc, but the problem is.... I wasn't the one who installed it. And to make the story even funnier - it didn't support my GPU.
it can use cpu or whatever else it finds, they can literally run on websites so
@@Kiba114 crypto miners cant run on websites are you dumb? And you barely get anything from cpu mining
@@heliux151ya they can
Lmao that intro:
"Welcome to the only RUclips channel you can trust, cuz I have a Lambo in the background..NAWLEDGE"
Hey Coffee, can you make a vid debunking people at mind valley cause honestly idk if people like Jim kwik are legit or not.
Plus also the dating community which forces you indirectly to buy products to make you feel better about yourself with channels like Dan bacon, Tripp advice, Marni.
Idk if they legit or fake.
Guys please upvote or like this so he sees this and makes a bid about this idea
Guys this is the fake coffezilla
Anybody who cultures a cult of personality to get you to buy their products is probably fake. You're welcome.
Mindvalley thing will get its own share of debunking. It's tough to do though because of how close knit they tend to be. Common sense would dictate that - if anything you can learn for free is being packaged for a hefty price by experts that you've never seen popularized, start questioning things left and right. I've seen some mindvalley garbage and dug into their Glassdoor reviews etc and people have heavily criticized the work environment and the pseudo intellectual shallow courses they offer. It's not illegal or a scam but basically getting people to buy into shit that's out there for free. 🙄 I might as well start a youtube channel and target them first 😂
@@TheKunnche that sounds a lot like 6 Sigma certification
That's an unfair accusation, they way I decide if it's legit; 1. Are the skills lessons being sold tangible and measurable? E.g. a confidence or success course is not measurable coz it's subjective but a memory course ( kwiks course) I can measure. 2. Is the price fair for the target audience?
In a world where a single mistake is usually career-ending, Coffee's moderate and forgiving take is a breath of fresh air.
like linus ever needed forgiving, coffie is nothing compared to him.
"In a world where a single mistake is usually career-ending" HAHAHA delusional asf
@@pr3287 Cancel culture has entered the chat.
@@janemba42 Look at all the big channels that have done fucked shit and still have a career, almost every big docuhe tuber and ever a few smaller channels that got hit with controversy.
Cancel culture is loud, Like a 1970s muscle car. But the much quieter modern vehicles still can beat it in almost every way.
@@directorelysium34 That's my point. All the douchtubers are so dumb or just ignorant that they don't understand what they do and that's why they don't get cancelled most of the time. Also because I'm pretty certain most of them are sociopaths that know how to manipulate their audience into protecting and supporting them.
Criteria for Trustworthy:
2011 : Need Knowledge About Finance
2021 : Having Lambo in the Background and Cryptocurrency Mining
Need to be Linus "just the tip" Tech Tips
Wake me up when we're mining lambos
This isn't all they've done, there's also a bunch of other stuff:
- Nicehash recently claimed (falsely) that Phoenix Miner, a well known mining software, was malware, and said to use their own miner. The miner was pulled because of Mega's new policy regarding mining software, not because of malware. They also did a similar thing in the past with Claymore Miner.
- It's been speculated that Nicehash "hacked" themselves, and essentially pulled an exit scam. They didn't refund small balances (I know this from personal experience), and did not refund people until after the crypto market had already crashed.
This "mistake" teaches us not to become a sucker for easy sponsorship money.
Nah take money shill stuff out as a RUclips veiwer theres an understanding that all advertised products are bs and we are just allowing our favorite creators to get their bread
@@pikachulovesketchup666 coffee said at the time linus did that video, he shouldn't have known about the criminal history of the founder. he said afterward, linus should have known. and second, the past history of the current project was not a scam, so llinus wouldn't know if it was a scam because this one has been legit so far.
@@tor13128 That's true, but it seems to be missing the bigger picture. Coffee also said that Linus didn't seem to have done his due diligence. Indeed, if he had done his due diligence, he would have discovered important details about the project's owner and about the projet's pas performance. These details would have certainly dissuaded Linus from doing business with that person. This is probably the most positive scenario that we can think of when imagining what could have happened.
And secretely, we all hope that Linus didn't just pretend not to be aware of anything suspicious while actually knowing the kind of person he was getting involved with.
@@TruthBelow yes ofc.
@@goatpepperherbaltea7895 Your message should be at the start of every RUclips advertisment. The sad part is that with some RUclipsrs you know the deal but part of the appeal of some of these guys (like LTT) is "Hey, you can trust me".
Good work, Coffee. You're helping save a lot of people with what you do! Keep it up
i love how linus only just discovered this video
I watched the WAN show from this week, and this is the first thing on my page after watching that 😂
crypto mining and a lambo in the lab, certified.
This just proves to me that many of these sponsored RUclipsrs don’t do their due diligence
Have you heard of Candid, or Better Help? Exactly that problem.
they do, and they know, but money talk many times
It could be a genuine miss on that detail. Linus doesn't take care of sponsorships, video ideas, scripts, editing, research ect, he has a large team of staff spanning multiple channels, companies, and services. He doesn't dig into the details himself as he may have earlier on in the days of the company when it was just a channel.
@@mouthbreather280 I understand trust me I do. But at the end of the day, it’s coming out of his mouth so he should know. You can’t spew information that you don’t know about just because someone else told you. But I do understand your point
@@mouthbreather280 It doesn't matter if they missed it. That video has a 33% dislike ratio which is MASSIVE. It would take all of five seconds to see the numerous comments as to why. They ought to either delete the video, address the controversy in a future one, or both. Preferably both.
But no. They aren't doing that five days later. Make no mistake, even if they didn't know about the founder of NiceHash before, they DEFINITELY know by now. Linus has actively chosen to ignore it.
Hey Coffee, it nice to see that someone is speaking what it really is, anyone makes mistakes, and if taken in the proper light can make'em better, whenever possible.
This is quickly becoming one of my favorite channels on this site. Great journalistic work as always.
You need to make another video about his lack of ethics.
Coffee, you're the only guy on here doing real actual detective work. Props man
he skipped half the shit where the convicted criminal picked up his life and is doing great, and also that nicehash has serious user security to protect its users. the dude is bias as fuck.

@@dannyhields6858 nice, reply to an old ass comment, nicehash is great because it allows you to mine on several different cryptos at the same time. and they have always paid out.

I don't know the guy personally but I don't think he is evil.
@@ok.ok.5123 Banality of evil my friend. However, you'd have a hard time convincing me that someone who knowingly scams others is not, to some extent, evil. Even if all other accusations are false, the botnet itself can be considered the scam. Just scummy all around.
I'm not proud but it was a surprise to see the guy's name. It's not every day that we get into the news. But if we do it's usually something weird/bad.

What is NFT?
@@matijavitasovic5881 a unique token for any unique asset. It's the new trend in selling digital media.
Are NFT’s a scam in your opinion?
@@anrew1000 NFT is just a system of unique tagging. The problem is that it's a new trend so prices for these assets are overinflated due to hype and it's hard to tell if they will increase or the bubble will burst. The issue with an influencer calling a NFT asset a good investment is that there's no track record. Best case, the market stabilizes and scales. Worst case, the trend dies and you're left holding the bag.
@@punishedbarca761 That totally makes sense, thank you. I’ve been trying to get as much information on NFTs as possible to try and formulate some sort of logical opinion for or against them. - thanks for your thoughts & time!
the serious linus face thumbnail makes me laugh every time.
Oh hey Linus, a little late but glad you are here
Didnt he do Wish ads too?
I find him increasingly a talking head
Lmao he's litterally a marketeer.
Since when he he not just been a guy that sells you stuff
Sort of related, but people kind of got on to him after his video on browsing the net safely about a year ago. I think he was sponsored by a VPN service then.
His channel has also done a few videos with incredibly clickbaity thumbnails that were effectively pointless. The one that got me the most was one titled "How Nvidia gave consoles the middle finger" or something to that effect. It was basically stirring the pc Vs console crap and literally explained nothing on the topic nor added anything to the conversation. It wasn't even a sponsored video. It sounds like a minor thing but it's these little things that have lately rubbed me the wrong way about LTT's channel.
@samsong samsong This just shows how clueless you are, if it wasnt profitable people wouldnt be doing it massivly. Pretty much every miner will optimize (mostly undervolt core and OC memory, it literally takes 2 mintues to do it, you dont have to be an "IT professional") their GPU for efficient mining, so in the end mining becomes less of a workload for GPU than gaming which boosts your core frequency way past that any reasonable miner would do. Also keep in mind that while you re gaming, your GPU load is going up and down all the time as you enter loading screens/alt tab to something/if you cap your fps... so your fan speed and temps are all over the place compared to a steady temp/fan speed that mining will do. A graphics card isnt a fucking car and doesnt have any moving parts so it works just as fine after 6 months of mining as it did brand new, at most you just have to replace thermal paste. Also most modern graphics cards will give you 2/3 years of warranty and there is no actual way to tell if a GPU mined or it was used for gaming (not that mining is illegal) so you re just talking nonsense.
At the time of writing this you can earn 9-10$ a day mining ethereum with an RTX 3080. In 3 months you can make your money back and you pretty much got yourself a free graphics card at the very least.
with all this knowledge, i'm starting to suspect that u work out at the library
LMAOOO

Lol! Benchpressing knowledge with his brain muscles
There's no such thing as Santa, or Linus' non sponsored video
how strange that a couple years ago a bunch of money went missing on an app made by a guy that went to jail for stealing a bunch of money
Whats funny, that the RUclips intro commercial is about how to get into the crypto currency market.
Linus addressed nicehash a week later and stated he will no longer support nice hash after finding out about thier more obscure past.
Nah man. Linus is still a shill. His advertisement for them is still on his channel and it's sitting at 1.6M views.
If he had an ounce of integrity he would return the money he was paid for it, remove the video, and cut ties with the company completely.
The fact that the video is still up is evidence enough that even though he's acknowledged it, he is still willing to make money regardless if it may or may not put the security of his community in jeopardy.
At this point he's no better than the people still selling their fans out to fake psychiatrists on betterhelp.
After he's taken the sponsor money
@@jzilla1234because that's how the world works
Not everyone knows about everything or everybody else - you forgive a mistake or two depending on their conduct, redressal

NO! Dealbreaker photoshop a Lamborghini next to that
"Recently made a video," that was quick it only got uploaded yesterday
QuadrigaCX's founders had a criminal past its customers needed to know about.
This is proof that Linus, who I love, doesn't really know shit about Crypto and crypto mining.
I got a coffee ad on a coffeezilla vid, this is epic
Here from Linus Tech Tips WAN show. lol
I am here because the wan show
And I'm here after today's wan show 😅
same XD
MrsZilla are you prepared to move to Easy Street when your guy's service to mankind is discovered ??
you won't realize how much 0:02 made me laugh, this sad night is suddenly happy!
This was the most ironic viewing experience ever. You mentioned nice hash and i was like oo shit i forgot i mined with them before years ago so i reinstated my account to check where it has gone and then i hear in the background after updating my password with them that there elite hackers that steal password data and bank account info :/ looks like ima do a reset today haha
It's almost like if given enough money, there are some creators out there that will straight up ignore any information about the host that is paying them. Over the last 12 months, we've seen so many flawed sponsorships on RUclips from scam to scam. I can't see it ever really stopping. People need to do more diligence with this kind of thing. If you are getting PAID. Do your research on who is paying you, especially when it is to promote a product/technology.
When I was watching linus’s nicehash sponsor I was like wtf is this there are so many things wrong with this video
so dont watch the video
So, who just came here from the WAN show?
Wan show clip but yea
You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself becoming the villain.
"It's not your mistakes that define you, It's how you follow up after that does. Linus didn't do so well with the follow up on this one

Zdravo, susjed
I've spent the last 3 days arguing with crypto fanatics on Twitter. These guys are totally brainwashed and don't know the difference between investing and speculating.
Starting a crypto scam is like opening a gold mine. There's an endless amount of suckers, and no regulation.
What he also forgot to mention is one nice hash eventually paid back all the money that was stolen from their miners they did not do so until there was a significant dip in the crypto market therefore not truly giving back the entire amount but only a portion amount equivalent to the amount of Bitcoin not USD.
I never got mine back, so not all miners
@@Maverekt how much was it? , i got mine back it was like 0.01 BTC
Mike Winnet made a great video about crypto mining and how little he made from it.
He's did the contrepreneur
Can you link it?
@@BPTtech well technically it was his series called ‘get rich or die buying’ but he does also hint it in the contrepreneur series.
If you mined crypto a few months back and held your coins up to this point, it would have been quite profitable. I'm still mining and making a decent profit after deducting the cost of electricity. Maybe he was mining with outdated, inefficient hardware?
Nice. Another room in the studio with Lambo in it
You don't get it, that studio is amazing!
Dude, you are slowly becoming my favorite youtuber. Keep up with the A+ level content.
"they have their ways of talking around this" haha, sums up crypto in general.
Or the claims the Bitcoin was stolen at peak and repaid at dip ... Huh... Go figure.
and guess what, that was like 3 years ago. if they had kept that btc they would be up 10x anyways.
Remember kids
Next time you're in class ask the math teacher if they have a lambo

Don't trust them.
Thank you Sir, for your dedication in protecting others from harm. A modern day heros traits they are! May good Karma shine positive energy over you
What do you recommend to use instead for a beginner miner? What are safe options?
I've never thought to highly about Linus Tech Tips. Something about him just doesn't seem right.
I feel the same
That whole channel is cringe to the max. They are making these faces on every thumbnail and think it is funny. Also he decided to grow a beard which makes him look like a random homeless dude.

anyone ever notice that the fan in the background (according to phsyics) is actually blowing air upwards into the ceiling and not downwards.

well, this video aged like fine wine in all aspects
The thing with LTT is they're to focused on growing and need sponsorships to do so leading to truly horrible sponsored content like this. I sometimes watch them for the weird shit but steer far clear from anything sponsored and have better sources for reviews primarily the two Steves.
Yeah they're just for entertainment imo if you want real info, you go to HUB, GN or L1 Techs
@@contra_sandinista LTT used to be a good channel for computer tech fans, but they transformed into a clickbait channel. A lot of videos with relatively low content value and flashy titles and thumbnails. Scary part is that it wasn't a slow process, it happened almost overnight. I remember scrolling down their list of videos and could almost pinpoint the moment. I've unsubscribed at that moment. And they (or rather he) also managed to become a sponsorship meme themselves (or rather himself).
@@TheMcMonster Yeah same here, I had to unsubscribe, I cant remember where I drew the line because its been while, but they really lost their way.
I don’t think they need sponsorships like this to grow. They have so much spare cash they buy cinema cameras to shoot basic looking RUclips videos.
Let’s not idealise the guy.
He sells products for brands.

morals can be bought, never trust blindly
but your mom can be!
@@thelasthallow WOOOOOAAAAAHHHHHH
@@thelasthallow HOLY SHIT
It's pretty obvious they wouldn't have gotten the sponsorship deal had they mentioned that. How many advertisements do you see where the company brings up its own sketchy history?
well yeah. The point here is they valued sponsorship money over integrity.
sure they would have, if you had a brain and did some research you would know that nicehash got hacked a few years ago and alot of users lost their BTC, but the supposed "convicted criminal" did everything he could to pay back all the users who lost their money and they also take security very fucking seriously now.
Lol what's with the lashing out? Anger issues?
If he clarified later I didn't get that far, but where I stopped he literally said that's Linus failed to call out... the people paying him money to plug something. 🤔 If he didn't want any part of them he would have simply turned down their offer of sponsorship. Could've even made a video about that. The other option is say fuck it and take the cash, which obviously he did. Can't have your cake and eat it too.
And again, if he was being somewhat facetious and then rolled into the moral argument then okay 👌 great. I get it. Now take some time and get your panties unwadded.
Doing an 8 minutes sponsored AD is bad enough without adding the shady background
I think most important to mention is that you will spend more on electricity that you will make from mining unless you happen to live in an area with free or close to free electricity.
"Im just a programmer. I never busted in anyhwere." xD
This aged well ❤
Would love a video on doing your own research, not many people know what this actually meant/entails and I think it could be cool to provide actionable steps
I paused to try to guess, the second layer is the cost of mining crypto, it's overly excessive on power, burns through parts if U don't have an adequate cooling system and a decent rig is north $20k
Edit: oh damn I would never have picked that, guess I gotta research founders as well, thanks coffeezilla, Ur work is truly brilliant
Something about people wearing beanies indoors while trying to get people to trust them doesn't work.
What a excellent opening! 😂😂
Hello, thus morning I downloaded nicehash but my cpu and gpu had errors so I just wanted to uninstall the program. But every time I tried to do something on my computer it would be very slow and I decided to restart my computer. Then I noticed that all my desktop icons had turned white and I couldn't start discord, windows settings or anything. I don't know if I caught a virus while I unabled my anti-virus to download nicehash or I'd I did something wrong. Right now I'm running a full computer scan and I really need help to gt my computer back to normal please help me. Thank you.
Thanks. I just installed the Nicehash miner, and noticed that AVG kept blocking certain files, (while I was mining) from opening due to malware
All crypto software does that. It’s not malware.
