I’m a DevOps Engineer: XYO is a Scam Let me be clear: I made $2000 off this “project” but it is indeed a scam I have been following this since basically the beginning. I mined using an old phone off and on, and made what at the time would be about $50 worth. Within about 4 months the coin had gone way, way up and I immediately sold. It’s dipped back and forth since. My issue: I am a DevOps Engineer. I live and breathe Linux, technical documentation, application installation and code quite a lot. I COULD NOT implement a single thing one of their SDKs There’s a note on their website that still says “Next Release Q1 2020” Their GitHub is dead. 2 years since last release. I believe people like me would be the backbone of the network, we know the technical details and are capable of expanding it. But we aren’t the target, the target is gamifying the app, adding subscription services (that never pay off) and selling more and more ad space in the app. And perhaps the biggest issue: their Core Features were supposed to be based on Bluetooth LE, and having location authentication happen when two bluetooth devices handshake and log that to be later uploaded as a proof of contact. Yet They no longer sell Bluetooth sentinels, but NFC cards which cannot passively handshake with other devices. Worse still, not a single answer on how this changes the project, or what the new cards add to the “network” I believe the original “sentinels” were a failed Tile competitor, and they found a way to implement them into their game. In fact, when you got the old bluetooth sentinels you had to update them for it to work with the app. Then they sold out of them, so they found the cheapest thing (NFC Cards) and starter selling those for another ridiculous markup. This is all speculation, but pretty well supported speculation. XYO is a scam and not worth your time or money.

Waste of time and energy. from 27 Nov 2020 until 10 Jun 2021 i collected 53000 coins that were exchanged to 3917 XYO worth about 24$. i have active referral sometimes 2 (5 in total) and i bought sentinel that boost rewards x10. The phone is mining 24/7 with above boost for all this time. Probably just about paying for elecricity it uses... I can imagine without 10x boost and no refferals You CAN'T reach withdraw treshold for over a year, and even then You recieve 25$ cose that's what 53k of tokens is worth now.... Waste of time and energy.

TERRIBLE I completed a survey for 10000… TERRIBLE I completed a survey for 10000 coins and never received, I pay 34 something a month. Fock them. I am out.

Almost 3 months later and still haven’t received item… Almost 3 months later and still haven’t received my sentinel I paid $28 for. They keep sending me the same generic response and won’t refund me. Shipping hasn’t updated since 2 days after it was supposedly shipped. Fake company, stole my money! Stay away

I love what XYO is trying to accomplish…BUT.. I love what XYO is trying to accomplish and want to be there when they get there. Their products are great, BUT, anyone try to contact XYO about order issues? Can't call them cause they don't answer incoming calls. CUSTOMER SUPPORT NEEDS WORK! They do however have an on line support site that helps with technical issues, but nothing that address product order issues. I think the company is great with the one exception of lack of good customer support. When XYO starts taking calls to support customers needs, then I will give them 5 STARS.
