Brokerages don't guarantee a 360% per year interest rate with absolutely no risk. In fact, you're lucky if you break 5-6% with some of them in a year, plus you pay fees on top of that and in some cases lose money due to the risk. This is VERY different.
Did Esoteric Investments leave you at some point with the impression that this was a risk free investment. We are trading bitcoin I can assure you it is not risk free on those exchanges if you have never figured that out by yourself. Any losses we do suffer we can show you our trades and where in the chart it happened for transparency so you know we in fact lost your coins in the market from a bad trade. But your investment is not risk free, not even minimally risk free.
If you have never traded on crypto currency markets there are people with large wallets that control markets and team up together to move and pump markets as big as dogecoin sometimes. They are called whales. When you are in the market alone with even a substantial amount of trading bitcoin say 2-3 ($1000) you are at the mercy of these whales. With the pool you put those coins in the hands of our qualified traders that are making it their job to research coins and market movements making our traders whales to secure your bitcoin investment and to put and use it in the markets to secure profits for the pool. Trading by itself is never ending and tiring, and often without a large enough investment isn't worth the time needed to actively trade and research. by giving it to a pool we put in the time to give your investment into bitcoin a better shot of growing than if you were trading it alone on your own.
Basically, we operate with a lot of similarities to a brokerage the people you give your money to go trade it for you and make you profits for a fee taken off the profits.
