I just joined Balancer a little over a month ago. And now i am starting to wish that I would not have. I am in 4 pools with a value of around $1600 combined. Apparently I got in just when they changed the BAL rewards from an automatic weekly distribution, to having to “claim” it yourself. Well I have earned a total of 3 BAL over about 4 weeks now. So about 42 bucks at current token price( Underperforming by the way). The charge for me to “claim” MY tokens was $8.22 !!! Seriously??!! About a 20% charge on the value of my tokens??? Dang I sure wish I could earn anything even close to that in these so called pools I am in. And since they started doing that, The Token price has stagnated too.
IDK, but I have always just had a problem with Greed. And that is what I am seeing here. There are much better places to put your money than Balancer now. I’ll give it maybe one more week to see how it goes. But something is definitely not right here.
