OMG: OmiseGo will be adding staking to their coin in July 2018 (so a bit down the line but this will become available in the somewhat near future)
The EarnCrypto platform firstly only gives you Litecoin, and secondly, gives you such a miserable amount of points for every action, that are then converted in an even lower amount of Litecoin (like 0.00033 per 1 point or so). Finally, most videos that you'll load are lagged, take time to load, and don't always count...
I'd honestly rather make money here on Steemit than there
First off you can choose the coin you want as a reward (again it has 67 active cryptos, you just obviously don't know how to change your main coin). Second I personally get ~$5/day for 1 computer which is far more then I get from staking my NEO or GPU mining (and if you farm a crypto you know will 10x in value next year that $5/day will become $50/day once the price rises to your expected value). Lastly the videos load fine in Chrome, and you get paid every 3 ads not every 1 ad (so again your impatience is mostly based on not fully understanding how the platform works).
But yes overall I agree Steemit can make far more profit then all the rest (but again you can run EarnCrypto, Coinpot and Storj in the background WHILE using Steemit, so I really don't see where the negative is).
Thank you for info
