Some other remarks:
You offer three Beginner plans, but why is the Gold plan "recommended for best results for first-timers" when ALL your plans are exactly the same: $1 for 5Ghs for 7 days?!

Second, $20 for 100Ghs = 0.04474 BTC. Estimate return after 7 days of mining at current difficulty: 0.03976 BTC. And luckily there's no difficulty jump during those 7 days, otherwise loss would be even worse.
Haven't done the math for Advanced, but both Beginner and Intermediate plans seem to be carefully measured to return no more then 90% of the investment amount. Just quick math with a sleepy brain, but it seems as if none of your plans are recommended. With just 7 days before people will have real numbers I hope those will look better.

I emailed that question yesterday, but support is also just for US and Canada I think 

I'm amazed not many people seem to complain

Anyway, my update for month 3 of CloudHashing mining:

Starting date Feb 15 with 420Ghs
Month 01 : 1.4 : 1.4 BTC -> actual 1.58 : total 1.58 BTC - (10%fee) -0.16 BTC = actual payout 1.42
Month 02 : 0.7  0.7 BTC -> actual 1.22 : total 2.81 BTC - (10%fee) -0.28 BTC = actual payout 2.53
Month 03 : 0.4 : 0.7 BTC -> actual 0.75 : total 3.56 BTC - (10% fee) -0.36 BTC = actual payout 3.20
Month 04 : 0.2 : 0.4 BTC
Month 05 : 0.1 : 0.3 BTC
Month 06 : 0.05 : 0.2 BTC
Month 07 : 0.0125 : 0.1 BTC
Month 08 : 0.007 : 0.08 BTC
Month 09 : 0.004 : 0.05 BTC
Month 10 : 0.002 : 0.03 BTC
Month 11 : 0.001 : 0.02 BTC
Month 12 : 0.0005 : 0.01 BTC

Total expected, around 4,69
Total investment 5.2 BTC

My new calculation rate seems to be quite accurate, 0.7 expected while in reality it was 0.75
For further months I should probably need to recalculate again. Last difficulty jump was 10% only, a record low, which is way under the average I've used. If such low numbers keep up then my average is too high again. But even with that in mind we're still headed for a loss. I'll keep CloudHashing's mission in view as well since they ensure profitabilty:

Occasionally deposits take a lot longer. Longest wait I had was 12 hours. Most of the time there's no issue though.

For auto reinvest, try this script I made: https://scrypt.cc/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=4087
You need to leave a browser window logged in on the Trade page with that script running.


I just hope the site doesn't close down like markets.cx, but everyone is free to have different hopes  

Yah, very cool thread by suchmoon. I most certainly believe he did some impressive work on getting unbiased figures.

But I guess that's not what you're talking about so fine, let me ask you: do I need to believe?!

I've been screwed over quite a few times and I simply take things one day at a time. I've invested some BTC in scrypt.cc over time and withdrawn a fraction. New investments now go to other clouds (ponzi yes/no, applies to ALL of them), and on scrypt.cc I keep on reinvesting. Here today, gone tomorrow?! They're probably here tomorrow, and the next morrow. It's not likely they'll disappear, but yeah, it could happen as nothing is set in stone. But today they're here and profit rate is still one of the best. And I like their concept and approach quite a bit.

Ponzi yes/no. All the information about the company and the electricity deal they have are in this thread somewhere. I haven't saved the information or links to it and I don 't plan on finding any. Too busy counting my profit 

I'm not going there (eventhough it's less then an hour away), but Bitcoin Trader is mentioned as a Contributing Sponsor on http://bitcoin2014.com

The truth is somewhere in the middle I think. The difficulty now is so high that to increase it you'll need an exponentially growing amount of hashrate. Simply said: the impact of new hardware released onto the blockchain is getting less. And yes, older mining equipment leaving the scene as well.

I dont believe scrypt asics will have much impac on the mining habits of bitcoin miners though. I rather believe some miners simply add one or more scrypt asics to their collection. A minority (with outdated miners) might switch, but their hashrate is minimal already.


OH! I like the app, btw! Checked it a dozen times today

The steep rise in difficulty is getting less steep. End of last year 50% in a month wasn't strange (100% even in one month!). When using calculators to see an estimate of income in mining hashes I already set the difficulty jump to 20%, later even to 15%, but now I think an estimate of 12% average would get more realistic numbers. Which is nice, cause it means the hashes you buy will be profitable a bit longer. Too bad PB ran out though, and so quickly after the new price 

Nee, het is een directe mogelijkheid om het bankwezen ingrijpend veel en veel efficienter en goedkoper te maken. Dat die stofnesten zich aan de oertijd vastklampen doet niks af aan die mogelijkheid 

Yeah, chat is not the greatest, but it's not a main function. "Just" a popular one 

As for autoreinvestment, look here for a well tested solution in the main time: https://scrypt.cc/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=4087

Misschien de aankoop nog wat opleuken met gegevens uit het laatste mailtje van Alpha:

• all batch 1 customers will get free hashing power from our cloud (en die cloud service is nog in aanbouw!)
• Secondly in addition to free shipping and being able to order first in batch 2 we are pleased to announce we are giving you 10% off any future batch of your choice

Yes, thanks for the unbiased opinion. Mine was a bit less well mannered.

The cryptomining blog also shows that their advice can turn tricky as well:

Ouch!
Imagine how much they would have made be reinvesting their profit in scrypt.cc instead of hoping they'll see some return from the more reliable and better service of Bit-Mining.co 

Sheesh, wat kind of deja-vu is this?! You already posted this in this thread on April 14: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=444495.msg6205285#msg6205285

It was already mentioned then that the cheapest isn't neccesarily the best, so why repeat that in the same thread now? Why don't you do some homework instead?! You might see the price for scrypt.cc in your previous post was $0.62. Now it's $0.44. See there how a market works in which the people decide what a KHS is worth to them and how well scrypt.cc supports that. None of the others offer that.

Omdat de difficulty elke 10 dagen met tussen de 11% en 45% omhoog gaat en na elke stijging de opbrengst dus behoorlijk daalt. Vorig jaar was dat nog veel erger, toen kon je rekening houden met een halvering van de opbrengst elke maand. Dit jaar is de difficulty echter steevast onder de 20% stijging gebleven, vandaar mijn opmerking over die 15%.
De eerstvolgende stijging is over 1,5 dag, en zal zo'n 15% zijn, zie daarvoor deze pagina: https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/difficulty
Wat je dus nu in 24 uur berekend hebt moet je aan het eind van de week nog eens doen om een idee te krijgen van de impact van zo'n stijging.

Als je zelf wilt narekenen, dan kan dat bijvoorbeeld hier: http://www.evolyn.net/bitcoin/mining_calc.php.
Er zijn nog anderen, doe eens een googletje op bitcoin calculator. Bovenstaande is toch een van mijn favorieten. Op de bovenstaande bitcoinwisdom site staat ook een calulator trouwens.

Dunno about scam, but I do know this total lack of communication is the equivalent of flipping a middlefinger at their responsibilities. Kinda like a captain being the first in a lifeboat 

David, een berichtje hier op het forum en mensen hadden je gratis van goed advies voorzien, met name ook voordat je iets koopt. De S1 die je gekocht hebt voor €500 (1.5 BTC oid) gaat in zijn hele leven niet meer opbrengen dan hooguit 1.2 BTC, mits de difficulty niet meer dan 15% stijgt per keer. En dan heb ik het nog niet eens gehad over de stroomkosten.

Doe je zelf een plezier en vraag gewoon hier wat je wilt weten. De hele cryptowereld is verraderlijker dan ooit omdat ook zogenaamd betrouwbare bedrijven last krijgen van de enorme kostenposten rondom bitcoinminen, zeker nu met de stijgende difficulty en de dalende waarde van Bitcoin. Cex.io neemt hierin het voortouw. De grootste kostenpost die zij hebben zijn onderhoudskosten van machines die minder aan waarde opleveren dan er in gaat, en die kosten worden gewoon keihard verrekend op de klanten. Andere bedrijven doen hetzelfde of gaan dat doen, en niet altijd zo opvallend. Het gaat heel smerig worden in ieder geval. Kortom, bezint eer ge begint.

De mining farms staan helemaal los van de website, dus dat draait gewoon door, ook als de website geheel op zijn derriere ligt. Maar intussen loopt de boel weer

Geen idee, ik heb mijn btc adresje neergezet als donatie suggestie voor de blije medemens, maar helaas
Maar nah, ik had het script voor mezelf gemaakt en uiteindelijk maar online gezet.

Site is inderdaad (weer) offline nu. Zelfde als gisteren of eergisteren. Het begon met trading engine die "vast" zat. Ergens hangt er iets blijft emmeren en emmeren tot er niks meer te emmeren valt. Helaas is er dus ook nog geen 24 uurs support. Maar goed, in Brazilie is het al ruim in de ochtend dus met een beetje geluk duurt het niet lang.

Yup...

Started with trade issues, then got slower and slower, and then poof
