This blog outlines my experience using Ethereum Capital. During the month of August I earned 12.7% in dividends on my initial investment. I then took those dividends and reinvested them into the Smart Contract; this post is about the first half of September.

For an overview of what Ethereum Capital is, please read the first post in this series: Ethereum Capital — Earning Daily Dividends, Part 1: My First Five Days

The Data

Both BTC and Ethereum took a hit earlier in the month, as did the Ethereum Capital smart contract. Presently, I'm on track to earn 4% in dividends for September, 1/3rd of August's return.  For me, this just demonstrates the ebb and flow of the markets.

The Ethereum Gold website just got a makeover. The author of the smart contract has created multiple user interfaces for people to use, just find the one you like the best.

• 0x167
• Ethereum Gold
• Ethereum Capital Wallet (the interface I prefer)

In the end, the "value" of this contract should never be viewed in terms of its fiat price at the moment; it's not what matters.  What matters is the amount of ETH dividends earned on a daily basis.  The ETH/USA price only matters when you convert it into USD, the focus of this contract should always be, "what is my return in ETH?"  With that said I know there will be people who disagree, so for you I could sell everything and leave the contract right now and have about 15% more in USD than I started with; again, this goes to the beauty of the contract in the event of a catastrophe I can pull my investment out immediately and make a decent profit (which will only go up over time). And of course, this data just represents my personal experience with the contract; not financial advice.
