I just saw someone post this on Facebook. I'm thinking about trying it out. Been wanting to mine for a while, but didn't wanna invest thousands to start. Seems like a good alternative.

I'd personally chose a site with a good rep if you plan on renting some hashrate.
I've had good experiences with https://www.miningrigrentals.com/ in the past, altough it has been over a year ago since i last used them.

This being said: you'll probably make a negative profit renting hashrate. Nobody would ask less to rent out their machine than they would make mining it themselfs.

They are renting out the actual miner. Not cloud mining or hash rate.

That's why I'm considering it.

I doubt if it'd be even profitable to mine bitcoin with S7 now until and unless you have really cheap electricity. What's the price per unit/kWh at your side? If it's very less, you should give it a try and share your experience here.

I agree with this, why would anyone rent something if they can make more money using it themselves. I would personally stay away from cloud mining sites, even if they are not ponzis they will most likely not give you any profit.

Its not cloud mining but real mining with a miner. Its about renting physically a miner like Antminer S7 for about 1 month. Its really good if you live in a country with very cheap electricity like Venezuela. However in Venezuela electricity is not 24 hours per day guaranteed so this can make this a no and also there is not political stability there so its a no. This is a very good option when someone is working for example in a university and has access to restricted zones in order to put the miner there and to mine with "free" electricity.

I doubt about their website, since my comment is "awaiting for moderation" and they not have any social media or support.
So, I just can say bewarb Smiley

First off, the site completely stinks of fake commenters since the 5 "thoughts" or comments below are obviously fake people and only 5? Really? I'm pretty sure they would have more comments since the service they are offering is somewhat questionable.

This alone is proof enough to stay away.

Site is not opening and also you are saying they are offering 49$ only to rent antminer s9 for a month that is very cheap and i don't believe they will have the real s9 mining for you in their warehouse. Don't get fooled by this cloud mining site, stay away.

http://rent2bit.com home page is opening and they also have 7 days money back guarantee policy BUT the site look more like a scam to me because all their hash rates is the same but their prices differs, i will advise that we should allow this website to gain some reputations and popularity before buying anything from them.
