I have probably lost my two miners
I bough two miners located in Russia and managed by the Compass mining partner Bitriver. In April 2022 the commercial relationships between Compass and Bitriver have been abruptly interrupted because of US sanctions against Russia. Compass says to its 2.000 customers that "owned" miners located there, that: 1. It has to interrupt abruptly all the hosting contracts; 2. It cannot give back the miners to their customers because the miners are located in Russia and they cannot have any kind of relationship with Bitriver; 3. It cannot facilitate any kind of communication with Bitriver because of the US sanctions; 4. It can only "try" to liquidate the miners through a third party company, but without any kind of guarantee of success; I asked several times to Compass if they do have any kind of insurance in order to protect its customers against this kind of event. But they never answer to this question. In conclusion: 1. I have probably lost my two miners worth over 26.000 USD. 2. Compass is a company that is not able to manage high risks (war, disaster, etc) transferring them to an insurance, but prefers to leave those risks on their customer's shoulders. Consider carefully this element when you invest your money using this company, because you can lost all your capital invested.
