Title: Cloud mining - Is it worth the risk ?
Post by: wec on September 25, 2014, 09:01:03 PM
Hello guys, i bought 3GH/s scrypt in genesis mining, that was 47.56 euros and i expect 4-5 months of ROI considering my earnings this week (first week).

Do you think is it worh to buy a lot of hash power in these services, i mean heavy investments like 100, 200, 300 euros investment and so on ? or with that kind of money there is other better options to thrive ?

Thanks a lot in advance for the help

I am guessing you mean 3MH/s in scrypt power, you could have gotten the same amount for 45 usd from GAW, im not sure how they deal with EU but its 35.29 Euro.

Hum, as far as i know, the earnings in genesis mining are better, that's why i went through it but you didn't answer my question :)

Have any cloud-mining firms provided evidence that they are actually mining?

The BTC cloud mining firms have, as they point all their hashpower to their own pools which have significant portions of the network hashrate.

I Think the main problem is that there is nothing that would force a cloud mining provider to continue to pay out mining rewards to the owners of hashrate. If a pool operator was to stop payouts then miners could simply switch pools, however this is not possible with cloud mining

Heavy investment 100 euros??? Dude, I know people who invresed $30 000 into cloud mining. BTW, LTCgear is the best, great payout. GAW and Genesis come second and third.

https://hashprofit.com *removed referral*

Checked it out:

Your hashrate    200 Kh/s
Earnings with your hashrate 0.00140 BTC per day
or 0.56 USD per day

7 days = 0.00945 BTC = 3.80 USD

Can't withdraw at the end of the trial, unless you invest into hashpower.
Minimum you can buy is 15 Kh/s which is about 9.16 USD , that 15 Kh/s ROI's in about 7 month (~ 206 days) according to them.
So, invest 9.16 USD so you can withdraw your "free" 3.80 USD ...

I dunno, this doesn't look like it makes a lot of money ... ROI of 7 months, slighty quicker if you invest some serious money.

please don't do that, i've looked into that and read some reviews, they all say it sucks...

Heavy investment 100 euros??? Dude, I know people who invresed $30 000 into cloud mining. BTW, LTCgear is the best, great payout. GAW and Genesis come second and third.

can you give me any example of someone earnings or reviews or something about LTCgear ? How those guys buy that amout of hash power with so great risk, have someone made great profit with cloud mining ?

You can read the review from Minerjoe here

Of course every high return investment comes with a risk, just how could you accept it and calculate it best for your choice. I know some people who has been very long in ltcgear and never hear any complain. I myself involved since a month and it works flawlessly since then. IMHO with other cloud mining services, the one who makes the most money is not you but the owner.

You should buy from ltcgear, it seems like the best ROI right now...
