Lets answer your question making it more transparent question. Okay?

Cloud mining=scam vs hardware mining=profit not assured but you will see how your funds are doing. Which is the best?

Why investing in cloudmining when you can buybsome hasing power from online rig rental sites like nicehash and miningrigrentals. Cloudmining and buying hashpower from sites has no difference. The only difference is by investing in first you are putting your money into a blackhole and while investing in other you are putting it into use and you can see how your funds are being used.

You will find many discussion about this kind of topics here in this section of the forum. I would say go through those threads and you will know the real face.

Cloud mining cointains risk and danger. Nobody can ensure that cloud mining site will run forever. Genesis-mining, hashflare,etc can turn into scam in a blink of an eye. Hardware cost much money but it never scam you. Investing money in hardware mining will bring you a lot of profit

[ajaxmoor]

Both are different and would be hard to answer. With cloud mining if you find a good company then you are fine, However with hardware you will have to invest large amounts of money initially  to get a profit only after about an year.

Lets just say it'll cost you more in a cloudmining but a hardware mining can be a long term profit. Like they said, it is hard to find a good cloudmining company because most are scams disguised as a legit company. Hardware mining on the other hand may cost you electricit and the materials needed but if you have your own mining gear then you can use that profit for a long term.

Hardware mining are multiple times is better than cloud mining especially for mining an alt coins. A lot of my friend are still do the hardware mining till this time and they're said if the hardware mining still profitable.

[mia_houston]

Of course I choose Hardware Mining because that is promise to your profit then Cloud Mining..But in this case not all of Cloud mining is not legit.I find some which Cloud Mining also legit to get profit

[isen]

Even though it is not very easy to make profit with hardware mining it is the only answer to your question and you can't even compare it with the other option.Like others said before me cloud mining is not real mining but a ponzi in disguise,do whatever you want with your Bitcoins but stay away from cloud mining and similar sites(hyips,revshares) cause it is almost sure that you will lose them all.

[EnacDomains]

Stick with buying GPU cards.  You can sell it back for atleast half the price most of the time.  Stickw ith the top of the line and newest cards so the value holds up the best.

GPU cards are not profitable at all. Even if you have the top notch in GPU cards your hash power will still be lower than that of asiic miner. And keeping on buying new cards will increase the loss further even more.

Cloudmining (talking about cloudmining not ponzi):
pros
you don't have to do it yourself so there is no sound in your home, and no maintenance and high electricity cost.
you pay and receive the profit by just sitting back and relax.
cons
the profit is so little, because the cloudmining should also make a profit so they will take a share.

mining:
pros
you get all the reward (you only pay a fee to your pool for example) but nothing too big.
everything is in your control
cons
you have to maintain the equipment, do proper cooling, stand the sound and have some place to put it all.
you will get a big ass electric bill
there is a need for a rather large investment to be competitive in this market.

[dunfida]

Cloudmining  are just total scams and  not worth  for the money  and  dont intend to  put even a single centavo on it. Hardware mining would be good  as  long  you have a money to invest on and you have cheap electricity then for sure you would be profitable.

[xuan87]

of course hardware mining is better than cloud mining, most of the cloud mining is a scammed site, but to start earning from hardware mining you need a lot of capital and plus there are a lot of maintenance fee, nowadays mining is not as profitable as it used to be, but if your country has a long winter and cheap electricity then it is recommended to do it

[senyorito123]

I woul d rather say that hardware mining is more profitable than any cloudmining sites out there since mostly or shall we say all of cloudmining sites who's been existing at these moment and from the past are turned scam, but in hardware mining is you really can see how the profit grows and you can assure that you can earn with it passively, but the sad fact for hardware mining is the profit for that thing is low and i think it will die soon since block halving really makes the difficulty even harder.

but the question is where is the legit cloudmining? honestly all cloudmining sites are scam. and if there is one 2 so-called paying cloudmining exist like hashflare etc. with them reaching to ROI is very difficult. I tried a a cloudmining service. Invested 0.03 there and after 3 months I only earned 0.001BTC..
do you still think investing in these type of shit things still worth?

[Hazir]

Op, are you asking only a hypothetical question or do you seriously want to invest money in mining?

There are 2 answers:

1. If you don't have much money but you are looking for profit then forget about cloud mining - it is very hard to find legit service.

2. However, if have some money to spare, have place to host your rigs, build a mining room, your electricity cost is very low or you have access to free energy,

and on top of that you can spend couple thousand on ASIC miners then you may try to start mining BTC.

I would advise against both options though. BTC solo mining era is gone. You are late.

Mining is worthless, unless you're invest  lot into it.

Most of the cloud mining websites were Ponzi/scam. And you really need a big mount to invest in hardware mining. Better stay away from mining!

I just having not more than 10 mining hardware using vga and until this time I don't think if that is a worthless, dude. and how about you can explaining about it? so I believe if mining is already worthless at this time.

Agree, hardware  mining is  a lot better   compared to those  cloudmining sites because  you could able to see physically  that  you are  really mining compared to those  so called " cloud mining"  but the  big hindrance regarding  these   hardware mining  is  the  cost  on this  kind  of investment, as you said  you  would really  lots  of capital to invest into it because  its  isnt a joke  to build a mining  farm  on   your  own  and you must consider on the expenses  on maintainance  would surely cost  you.

[BossMacko]

Most people here are already experienced Cloud mining like me and all i can say about cloud mining is in the long run they will scam you, i think many user will agree with it. About Hardware mining i have not experience it yet because i don't have a good hardware to use for mining.

You have a  point , hardware mining would  be profitable  unless if you have cheap electricity on your country and you have  lots  of asic mining hardwares in able for you to be  profitable. As we all know that bitcoin mining  difficulty its  already increased thats why some miners  are  not profitable  already   unless if you have  the  latest ones. Cloud  mining  are just scams.

you will realize that actually hardware mining is really profitable if you're not only thinking to mine bitcoin but also those alt coin which have less difficulties than bitcoin and having pretty decent prices,you will get good profit out of it rather than mining bitcoin and competing against those giant and huge miners that you actually don't have chance on it

[FanEagle]

Hardware mining is profitable based on many factors like electricity cost,mining hard,setup cost etc but most of the cloud mining companies are scam,ponzi scheme calling themselves cloudmining but not mining in real.

[sbtctalk]

H/w mining, if you have good electricity rates. You can sell your h/w to recoup losses.

[Raimonn]

The problem with cloud minning is how you know that the company will not disapear with your bitcoins. If a cloud minning profit numbers are bigger than normal, provably they will go away scaming its users.

That is the other alternative for the hardware miners since bitcoins are not fully profitable by now, and my question for now what is the best altcoin to mine and yet still profitable? Since i think eth is little bit annoying for now,  and also cloudmining cannot do nothing as it is since their is no real mining behind those and only just been made for scam purposes thats why im closing the thoughs upon investng on them and not recommending them to anyone.

[veleten]

profit from hardware mining is higher than from cloud mining
anything is bigger than 0 in this case (cloudmining nowadays is synonymous to HYIP and scam,I wonder if there are more than 3 legit cloudming sites left)
with cloudmining you have no control over your investment,once you bought "powers" you are there to sit and pray to ROI gods
with hardware mining you call the shots,you choose what coin and where to mine
if you are smart (or lucky) enough,you could stumble upon a promising altcoin and mine it while the difficulty is low
and sell later to make huge profit,or mine ,say ETH with rented powers to recieve low but steady income
there is no contest in my opinion

I would really agree with you hence hardware mining is more profitable   than  on cloudmining and  most of them are just total scam it much better   to do your own mining farm but the big question is    you have the money  to invest on? Hardware mining would  really cost you and we all know that.

[Xenophoto]

I think both of them are only profitable if you have a lot of money to invest. But the only difference is the fact that even the trusted cloud mining sites run away. They always say that they got hacked but they just don't admit that it was their plan all along. In hardware mining, you're sure that it'll not go away because you're the one that controls it. You're the one that manages it.

[iv4n]

Why do you even mention cloud mining in the same sentence with hardware mining. Two totally different things, and I`m sure profit is different with both investments. For cloud mining you can start with 50 $, just register somewhere and start to "cloud mining", but with hardware mining you will need more serious investment. You need to buy equipment, pay electricity bills when times comes, and something to cool the system.
Well Cloud mining will take your money in one moment and site will just crash and they will say how they are hacked or something, with hardware mining something like that can`t happen, but for ROI you will need to wait.

[kanazawa]

Brother, cloud mining is a non-winning game. If you take the costs involved with electricity and maintenance fees plus the profits of the owners, you will earn nothing. With physical hardware is very difficult because it involves electricity costs, hardware costs and geopolitics. But no doubt that cloud is the worse opition.

Should i invest in Cloud mining or Hardware mining ?

You consider investing on a cloudmining. May I know what cloudmining site is that?

You consider also investing on an actual mining. Already know what should be the things to be consider before starting?

Cloudmining is fine if ever 'there is really a legit company' that offers that since you can start at the affordable amount although expect a long ROI based on your capital. But like I said, a LEGIT one which I doubt there is really a legit cloudmining site.

Actual mining on the other hand, needs lots of consideration and factors to be taken out seriously before you can start.

Bottom line, why not find another investment instad that worth to try and effort?

[BitcoinHodler]

Should i invest in Cloud mining or Hardware mining ?

it should really be pretty obvious with a small calculation and also looking at the history of mining and cloud mining.

cloud mining has a notorious history and it is full of scams so you should stay away from it at all costs.

but mining is good and it can be profitable. the only thing that you need to do is first calculating your profit based on your cost like cost of electricity and it it was worth it then you need a capital.

[Zivdafast]

Hardware mining is profitable based on many factors like electricity cost,mining hard,setup cost etc but most of the cloud mining companies are scam,ponzi scheme calling themselves cloudmining but not mining in real.

The only good cloud mining companies are the Bitmain or the Genesis mining, most others are scams.

[chixka000]

You have to be very careful in the cloud mining platform, it is too dangerous to trust any cloud mining sites right now. Although it is a very good technique of gaining profit i wouldn't still recommend you to used cloud mining.

[a7mos]

there is nothing called cloud mining. they are all scam sites and untrustworthy. even if you find a paying site, you may not get your ROI before they go scam. hardware mining is expensive so not all people can afford it and the profitability depends on the electricity price in your place

[Barbut]

Hardware mining is real mining, cloud mining is a joke where almost all services that provide cloud mining are possible scammers.
If someone have money to invest in real mining, to buy everything and set up little mining farm, then that is a good thing. I support miners, and they are holding all of us here, without them bitcoin is nothing. Cloud mining services I don't support, womw of those services are proven scammers, and to many times these services just crash and disappear with money that people invested.

[SyGambler]

so far cloud mining sucks , you will lose money or you have to gamble by joining the ponzi ones which means atm you can't compare real mining with cloud mining
but there is a trusted member here who said that he will launch a cloud mining service in the future and it will be legit and profitable , but time will tell anyways

As you said cloudmining is so damn fucker, and i really hate that one since they are just fooling people and telling that they can earn huge profit for investing at their site, and cloudmining would be the worst idea to anybody interms in investment since mostly people are been scam by those sites and no success stories has been tell, only those scammers gain success unlike on hardware mining is you can see your earnings works since you are the owner of this machine.

[HotAmericano]

Hardware mining, after you done the mining, you still have the mining hardware that can be resell again.

[jtipt]

In my opinion its hardware. Majority of cloud mining sites are turing out to be scam why waste money and not that good either. Whereas if you do some initial investment in hardware for mining you will be making profit in no time, but only if you are willing to mine alt coins right now mining bitcoin is not that much profitable.

[Wandering Soul~]

Hardware mining of course, When we are entering something new, We first check if it's legit or not. Most cloud mining are scams and you will not be able to call yourself a miner if you're using cloud mining. So it's better to use hardware mining plus you will gain more experience and knowledge about mining unlike in cloud mining.

[Ulloa]

Hardware mining is way better because cloud mining can scam you on any moments and the fact is also that the most that ever have been popular later on scammed everyone.
You should never invest into cloud mining!!

It's obvious that it's hardware mining. Aside from almost cloud mining turining out to be scams . Cloud mining is not a true mining cause you're not ming it yourself. In hardware mining you can get more knowledge and experience about mining . The thing that sucks in mining is the competition and your electrical bill 

[JeffBrad12]

Hardware mining, after you done the mining, you still have the mining hardware that can be resell again.

I do this, mining using R470 and if I wanna for changing into the another type I just selling this tools and hardware mining are more convenient and the risk is very low comparing with the scam investment like cloud mining.

Yes, running own mining is simply similar to running our own business whereas cloud mining are equivalent depending on others and investing into others business. Running a mining unit must be a challenging one as it needs to concentrate on lot of aspects : cooling down the equipments and managing against electricity city costs and increasing network difficulty.

[Script3d]

hardware mining is the best and if you have cheap electricity you can earn alot of profit in the long run and for the cloud mining just dont invest any of the sites that offers you it just a promise one day you will lose all of your money

Cloudmining sites are just  using  sweet  high returns  to lure people  on their website and would invest but in the end those people are  just being scammed by the website. Hardware mining is really good compared on so called cloud mining. but you would really need lots of money to invest on hardware mining.

I think so. If you do not know how to build the hard ware rigs, you can rent the hash rate directly from some sites.

[crazyivan]

Hardware s always the best cause you have full control what you mine, when you mine it and when you sell your coins. Also, you can always resell your hardware. On the other hand, you need to buy and set up your rigs and also take care of any broken hardware.

Hardware mining  is  too far away better than those cloud  mining scam schemes  out there.  The  big issue  here  is the  money/capital  to  invest on  hardware mining because  as we all know asic miners  doesnt cost  cheap and   you would really need   huge amounts to start with it. Maintenace would be  important to consider and also the energy cost  on your place  in able to calculate your profits.

[Yuuto]

I think that hardware mining is the better choice because first of all there are a lot of ponzi schemes out there that pose as cloud mining companies and you can't really tell whether it's legit or not, and also you can sell your hardware and get some principal back after you're done mining.

[densuj]

I think hardware miners become best choice than cloud mining, although it will hassle but more safe than cloud mining service. Especially if we have plan ether coins because we still have VGA cards if is not profitable for mining and we can sell them again. It still there are values on VGA cards than hardware miners bitcoins.

[machinek20]

most of the cloud mining is a scam site and the return profit is so slow and contain high risk being scam, so i better choose hardware mining even though it need a lot of money to start but i have the total control of the mining so the percentage being scammed is very low, so I really recommended hardware mining and stay away from cloud mining

[el kaka22]

Hardware mining, after you done the mining, you still have the mining hardware that can be resell again.

That is true only if you are able to buy and maintain the hardware because buying and maintaining cost big money so that is not for people who have small to invest in mining. Cloud mining will be the best for people who do  not have big money, time, space and the cost of maintaining the hardware.

The cloud miing is not profitable for most people. If you look at the cloud mining of ZCash, most investors lost.

Actually government will not going to help those miners since they cannot implement them some taxes since mostly people who's holding the real one are hiding so government will not force them to pay some taxes for their operation,  theyre profits will be more lessen since they have to pay more additional payments on their what so called business,  and cloudmining is not a real mining it is just an scamming bait for those frauds.

I think that hardware mining is the better choice because first of all there are a lot of ponzi schemes out there that pose as cloud mining companies and you can't really tell whether it's legit or not, and also you can sell your hardware and get some principal back after you're done mining.

Even hardware mining right now is not as good as it was. Especially if you do live in a country which the electricity bill is  quite high and the maintenance of your device is really not that easy that is why cloud mining is build. Actually the idea of cloud mining is really good but you are right that instead it was being used on trolling peoples mind out.

Hardware mining  could be still profitable  though  but as you mentioned   you should really need  some  amounts  regarding  on the expenses  on its maintenance   because   proper maintenance and   ventilation  is  crucial for  this  kind  of activity. Electricity  should  be  the most  thing   to be considered  if   its cheap then you would  be profitable enough. I agree with you cloud  mining  are just being created  for  those  who dont  like  to have hardware miners but  most of them are just ended  up as a scam.

I would only do cloud mining if it was the government who try to help their citizens other than that i would be very vigilant. Exactly especially in our place in which electric bills are really quite painful in the ass.

Actually government will not going to help those miners since they cannot implement them some taxes since mostly people who's holding the real one are hiding so government will not force them to pay some taxes for their operation,  theyre profits will be more lessen since they have to pay more additional payments on their what so called business,  and cloudmining is not a real mining it is just an scamming bait for those frauds.

Miners would really not tend to expose themselves because the threat of  being imposed taxes by government and surely profits would be reduced. I understand your point though and most people will surely think the same. Cloudmining are just total trash they are just  claiming that they  operating a mining farm which doesnt exist at all on the first place, 99% of those cloudmining are scam.

Is cloud mining safe to use? Is it recommended to used? Since some of the users said that it is not safe to use nor recommended and some said that it is just a scam. I dont know about this i mean i never used both cloud and hardware mining.

What would you recommend on me? which is the best one?

You really should do some research on the forum. There are threads with lists of closed cloud mining sites and the lists are extensive.

NO, cloud mining is not safe to use. You are sending money to a private company, that usually is not what they claim. The most common issues are:
-CM company never mines and is just a domain with a btc address
-CM is mining, but for themselves. You don't know how much miners they have, what they are mining and how much they are earning. You are getting paid scraps.
-CM looks legit at first, they seem to be mining and paying out a lot, but after a couple months they disappear with your money.

Should i invest in Cloud mining or Hardware mining ?

Well, if you prefer the cheapest way, then I suggest you to invest on the cloud mining but the earnings there are not that big like the earnings in the Hardware mining because in the hardware mining, it mines a lot of bitcoin than a cloud mining can because of its hardware power which is really expensive. So the choice is yours.

Well honestly i do some research about cloud mining but i dont fully understand it. as i read your opinion i know it is not advisable to use then it is very scary and risky though we can earn a small amount from it but i would prefer to post in the signature campaign to make money than investing in cloud mining. Anyways it is our choice where to invest.
Thank you for sharing your ideas dude.

What is it that you don't understand?
The idea behind CM is that you buy a share, which could be a full standalone miner and someone hosts it for you in his big mine. You pay for the hardware, he pays for the space, power and cooling and you share the profits. In reality companies are abusing the system and hiding their real profits to limit the payments and extend the payback period. Sometimes they don't even buy the hardware and run once enough people buy the contracts.

[passwordnow]

Is cloud mining safe to use?

I won't prefer you to believe and trust cloud mining because they are scams although I'm saying that all of them are scam. Maybe 0.5%  you can trust as long they can provide proof of mining and there are some that are legit.

Is it recommended to used?

No, I don't recommend you to invest in cloud mining it is better if you'll invest in bankroll casino.

Hardware mining is legit but the problem is that will consume too much electricity and if you are living in a country where electricity is high then don't intend to build your own.

Should i invest in Cloud mining or Hardware mining ?

Lets just say it'll cost you more in a cloudmining but a hardware mining can be a long term profit. Like they said, it is hard to find a good cloudmining company because most are scams disguised as a legit company. Hardware mining on the other hand may cost you electricit and the materials needed but if you have your own mining gear then you can use that profit for a long term.

You have mentioned that in having a hardware mining it would cost you firstly from buying an equipment or gears and second the electricity, I don't know if it can be for a long term profit unless you have a free source of power or electricity and I guess you will need a maintenance for your equipment which will also cost some dollars . So I think both cloud mining and hardware mining can not be a profitable investment .

Yeah, both the types of bitcoin mining in general are not really that profitable anymore and it is not getting any easier by the time since the prices are going off, so even if you have free electricity the hardware you buy for the mining is expensive and you won’t be able to start really profiting from it until a year of constant mining, and that applies to cloud mining as well.

Any investment is like that. No difference or anything. All of your money goes to capital like machinery, raw materials, etc. I'm talking about investment/franchise in general. At first, you can't earn anything at all since you're still growing back your capital. But once you're done with that phase, all of the preceding income would be profit. The only thing that you would have expenses to are electricity and maintenance.

If you have "free" electricity (which I doubt) then you'll get your capital back in a much shorter time than those that pays huge electric bills. I think mining is still profitable if you have decent capital. Otherwise, you should just look for a part time job since it would pay much higher, although the earnings wouldn't be a passive one.

i will choose hardware mining because its a real mining but we need to calculate the electricity fee and if there is not profitable then we don't have to mining. i don't want to choose cloud mining as today we know that many cloud mining out there but we don't know where is the best cloud mining that we can invest. but for suggestion in cloud mining, maybe you can go with hashnest because they are really mining with hardware and they are the one of the oldest cloud mining that still online until now.

Both were not fine miner bro. Actually cloud mining involves many ponzi schemes and investments. I hope might know this. Then hardware mining is fine way make bitcoin income preferably you could go with solar miners or antminer. Solar will reduce you electricity charges more than all the other type of miners.

Cloud mining is too risky, I have a bad experience with many cloud mining sites. Unfortunately I was scammed by them. One of them is Hashoceans which scams in summer 2016. So i advice you to avoid them and be carefull when you put your money. I advice people for  Hardware mining, which it's a good domain to get a good profit. of course you should first invest in equipments.

Cloud mining doesn't really stand a chance compared on actual hardware mining because we all know that most cloud mining are just scams and also I don't really believe on the returns that they promised because its really high actually compared on any investment site. They usually ran off on our money when they accumulate enough funds.

They usually ran off on our money when they accumulate enough funds.

[1] Actually cloud mining sites offer a much lower return than other investment sites. There's bitcoin doubler which doubles your money mostly after 100 hours. There's HYIP which from the name itself have "High-Yield". And then there's Rev share that's typically 10% return every month.

Scam cloud mining sites usually offer ROI for 3-6 months depending on the website. While seemingly legit cloud mining sites would take more than a year before you ROI (again, depending on the website).

I don't know why would someone be offering a legit cloud mining site if he has his own mining farm. He can take all of those profits, no need to share it to others. Maybe if there would be an actual legit cloud mining site, the KHz that you'll get for a certain price is much lower than when you bought your own mining rig.

[shield132]

Why the hell cloud mining will be better when you know that nowdays there are many scams and no one will offer you such service for profit when they can to mine theirself. Of course it's better to buy latest hardware equipment and control yourself your hardware which will be forever you and when new hardware will come, you can to sell it more cheaper and buy latest and keep profitable mining. With free electricity, ROI with s9 is 140% and thay's not so bad.

Cloud mining site would be better than hardware mining to those people that (a.) can't afford a mining rig, (b.) don't have a place for a mining farm, (c.) high electric bills. We all know that you need to have a decent mining rig to have some actual earnings from hardware mining. Otherwise, it would take time before you can ROI or get bored and end up just selling the rig for a lower price.

Supposed that there's an actual legit cloud mining site, one would think that it's much better to invest there since he can simply get a part or a percentage of the total mining power of someone that has a decent mining rig.

It's like having your own mining rig but only 5% of it.

I can explain.
You have just a little cash, but you have an empty building, that could fit a lot of miners. What do you do?
Offer contracts to cover the cost of hardware.
Buy hardware and start mining, pay investors 50% of the profits, blame it on the maintenance fees.
Pay them back some of their money and then reduce payments to scrap, blame it on the increasing difficulty.
Sell the hardware.

[audaciousbeing]

It still surprises me how one can even compare the two with what we have and seeing today. Its like comparing USA in terms of the advancement in technology and one Third world country. Cloud mining has never prove us  wrong in two ways;

1. Majority of these sites are scams and they will remain so.

2. The few ones not scamming just forget about getting any return because it wont happen or you will have to wait forever.

In my opinion both of them are useless because no one sites are more profitable and also return of investment in the trusted sites of mining also long , so it is very annoying thing to invest in cloud mining Secondly some of the ponzi sites are available for mining but they can ran away anytime .
Opposite of the cloud mining  there is option of hardware mining , but in hardware mining we need much amount of electricity to perform by our miner hardware , That results into loss of electricity bills and at the end you will find not much bitcoin than electricy bill .
But still you can try some CPU miners for the altcoin mining . Altcoins price can change any time so there will remain chance of making some better profit .

There is this funny thing about the whole cloud mining business that it is governed by its own laws. In a normal world when a company is promising profits, but isn't delivering any, just making you donate to the cause they are quickly given an appropriate tag and go bankrupt. Here, people see it as a positive feature, because most companies are fake sites made by thieves, that disappear and appear under a new name couple weeks later. Why are you so drawn to this system?

You also can request to redeem your miners back to your address when it's running no profit on our platform.

I suggest to select hardware mining, as my experience about a years ago, I was investing about 8 btc, I bought $260, about 4 btc is lost because it exposed the scam cloud mining like hashocean, cld mine, hot-coin and many more. Genesis mining and hashflare are indeed still paid but more than 10 months not get RoI.

I agree, if we buy S7, estimation of electric price of 12 cents and the price of the bitcoin $1.200, then estimated to get RoI about 7 months. It's not just you that exposed the scam, according to the data of about 50.000 btc in the past year is lost because got scam.

I would aso prefer using hardware for mining rather than cloud mining investments because, you can exactky generate profit rather than you invest with mining handled by other proprietors. Most of them only promises non reliable profit gaining so called miners, which they are more expert to convince people to invest for them and most cases resulted to scam which in fact, losses people's profit.

Well, If you choose hardware mining, you need to consider the places and electricity power.
Since you need to avoid the noise and high temperature. Also if you got competitive electricity power, hardware mining is a good choice.
You need to be considerable.

It all depends on how much hashing power you have on either two and whether you have a cheap source of electricity to run the hardware, you also have to account for the running costs of hardware mining and the inevitable noise pollution. It would a great experience to run your own mine though its costly to setup.

[Rockie1234]

I really think cloud mining is simply a bad idea. It is true you can make your money back within 12 months, but the site will probably exit scam by then. The legit sites (impossible to know which) won't give you a guaranteed profit; sometimes you will lose money because of electricity fees. Hardware mining is not worth it unless you have a company.

Fatanut, what can you say about hashnest? They are legit cloud mining company. I don't know why but they prefer selling hash rates online while they can also to mine that ecuipments for themselves. Maybe that's somehow good marketing trick because also they take fee from trading and they aren't depended on mining difficulty. By other side, many scam website claims that they are real cloud mining but behind that action is that bitcoin is mineable coin and many new people really believes this at first.

I think they are doing it because they get the capital instantly and can use it for trading or other investment projects.
They have the equipment, but no coins.
Hypothetically their hardware is able to mine 100 coins a year, but they would have to wait a year to get it.
They offer cloud contracts and get the coins in a month.
This leaves them with another 11 months to invest the coins, employ new people, buy new facilities. This puts money to work at once.

In altcoin maybe you can mine 100 coin but in bitcoin you can not earn that amount even you are using ant miner s9 those people who are offering hashrate online most of them are fake or if its real they are just offering hash rate due to their place is not profitable to mine bitcoin and they can increase their revenue if they start to accept many clients  just forgiving hash and those who are invested will not get any profit or gaining profit but too small than making your own rig or buy your own hardware mining tools.. much more better than cloud mining.

By other side, many scam website claims that they are real cloud mining but behind that action is that bitcoin is mineable coin and many new people really believes this at first.

Can't say anything about them, really. It's just the same "it's a legit cloud mining site" scenario over and over again just like hashOcean, we don't know if they are going to run away until they do. Let's say that hashNest is indeed legit and they don't have the objective to run away any time. Their rate will surely be really low because that's how a "legit" cloud mining site operates. You let other people rent your mining power but you give it for a little high price. It's basically just hardware mining but you let other people rent your rigs so you can have better profits. I think that's the only reason why legit cloud mining site operates.

I personally prefer the cloud mining rather than having to bother using hardware. because the article is simple and practical. but these are extremely vulnerable cloudminning scam.

You already know that cloud mining will end up into scam and yet you 'personally' prefer cloud mining? And why did you thought that hardware bothers you? On what way it bothers you? For investing for some rigs? It's an investment mate you know and you really need to have your own hardware when it comes to real mining, but with cloud mining this is actually dangerous.

how could people fall for that kind of scheme while its clearly stated for many times that cloudminings is not very profitable and mostly of them are scam you can actually see their feedbacks on other buried threads out here and also i dont think that we can get profits if we used mining hardware since at the first place blocks for bitcoins is are much harder to mine at this point.

Some people are just dumb, I guess. You know that it's going to scam you but "whatever". Anyone who's knowledgeable enough about stuffs like trading or any other ways of earning money will not waste his time and money joining cloud mining sites. People know that better stuffs exist like signature campaign yet still stick with cloud mining sites or HYIP sites just because they are too lazy to educate themselves about all these things. Without learning new things in life, you will always stick to the thing that you have been doing ever since even if you know that it's not the best thing for you.

We can't blame those people if they think that the "real" mining is bothering them and treating those cloud mining scams as reliable. Those people wants the instant profit which we know that in this world when it's an instant profit, there's something shady on it. Choppork is right, real mining is also hard nowadays and 3 more years the next halving will come.

Cloud mining is not profitable this days but im not saying its a scam. Better to invest your money in building your own bitcoin miner but the disadvantages of it is, Electricity fees, maintenance fees but there are advantages also: you pick your own mining pool and you can mine bitcoin 24/7.
But i suggest to have knowledge first on the matter or research it first to have better understanding in mining bitcoin i think it has increase its difficulty to solve blocks so you need to pick a good graphics card and there are new methods to mine it faster.

i can't call them dumb but the proper words to used is innocent since i believe the people who still have investment on cloudminings are just bragged by those referral sharks peoples and since they'r posting some edited proofs well surely those new comers will come and invest since they will think for it that this platform is profitable for them if they invest at it. And im pretty sure that people who experienced get scam by them will surely not comeback to invest at cloudmining sites since they are now aware for their bad experiences.

You talk like that cloud mining companies have free electricity and they are making givaway for people.
When they have cheap electricity cost and mining rigs, why won't they simply mine for themselves? Lifetime hash contracts, that's simply fake contract. One side of cloud mining is that hashnest takes fee when trading ghs and their roi is so low, it don't worths to waste time.

I do cloud mining with hashnest, it is quite reliable.

reliable? Are you serious? I think hashnest nor other cloudmining sites out there surely doesn't gives us a reliable profit and surely your expectation for them is to much. Try to calculate your your roi there so you could see the real result ans surely you will wait for long time to get your capital aswell as in there. Or shall we say that maybe you've got a massive referrals who invested out there thats why you said they are good and you are earning from it

[South Park]

Cloud mining is not really an option so the only real option is hardware mining but the issue here is you need a big capital to invest and probably even more important than that is to have cheap electricity rates without that the possibility of profiting from mining gets lower.

hashnest is reliable in terms its not a scam, roi wise, sometimes u do, sometimes u dont ,depends what price u get in at, it certainly has the highest chance of roi out of all the cloud mining. theres a advantage at hashnest, they have a market  where u can trade ghs, u can either trade it or wait til the machines close to dying and sell it  ,people/companys with lower power cost will  buy it on the cheap off the market. that really helps  cut roi time   for the user. i got in pretty cheap im guarantee to roi if i sell now ,if i let it ride i still have a extremely high chance of  roi. there will be winners and losers, its not like other cloudmining sites where the majority loses.

[Cherylstar86]

I think in that hardware mining has a big advantage rather than cloud mining because you owned it personally and the investments that you have been capitalizing is your own  money alone. In cloud mining it has a big difference with hardware mining and those offering investments is only prone to fake mining visionary and websites that could be turning out of scam to many investors who do invest in the mining sites. I am not planning to have hardeware minings but I must say and recommend to those who liked mining investments to be at hardware mining and not those uncertain investments of cloud mining sites.

[olubams]

In 2017, cloud mining to me is a no go area for whatever reason the site might put forward simply because of what I have seen in the past and how this mining sites just come out of no where every now and then, and fold up again. In the case of hard ware mining, that is still a go area for me but not with enough capital because the difficulty in getting a bitcoin these days is something else but I will be open to a collaboration offering hardware mining rather than cloud.

Using the cloudmining sites just same as exchange my bitcoin to the another bitcoin with highest fees for the maintenance cost. It's not reliable way to do for everyone in here.

Since you already know that cloud mining operations most of the time turn out to be scams then why do you prefer it? At least with hardware mining even if you don't make money you could always recover a part of your investment by selling your mining rigs.
