Hello everyone, I made a video earlier taking a look at Sun Mining. It definitely looks appealing especially with the great ROI offered. However, I was definitely skeptical of the site. After I posted my video, I had quite a few people contact me through comments and my discord about their unfortunate dealings with Sun Mining. I hope this video helps anyone who is thinking about using Sun Mining. Of course as always, this is just my opinion and advice, be sure to do your own research and come to your own conclusions about this company, thanks and hope this helps!

Cloud mining is unprofitable and they are entering this market as a huge solar mining company? Why? No sane person would be putting up huge money to build a company that offers something that is balancing on the edge. I don't buy it.
2 month roi is laughable. Only scammers would offer that.

We also have our own innovations in the field, but this is confidential information.]
I'm sure you do...

We work directly with equipment manufacturers. We build Data Centers on more economical platforms with advantageous tariffs for electricity.

You were supposed to be in solar mining. What tariffs?

Contracts are not allowed to be sold or transfered to other users.
That was to be expected of a scam. And that spelling mistake...

I'd like to see your Data Centers.
For security reasons, we can not specify the exact location of our Data Centers.

I don't want to go there you morons, I want to see them, but I expect there's nothing to see...

No, you cannot lose money. We make every effort to ensure the safe and reliable operation of your equipment.
No investment business will ever assure their clients that losses are impossible. You can have a fire in your data center or get hacked and then what? "Sorry we were wrong, you actually can lose money."

Sunmining is well known scam. As soon as videos are produced (or even from beginning on), joining users get scammed by these "services". This site has nothing to do with cloud mining. They have no hardware, only those cheating scripts and wallets to steal your money.
If you want to earn real money with your youtube videos look to campaigns

I don't trust any new website that offering cloud contract or cloud mining because i already experience a lot and lose my money when investing that i thought it can gives me a passive income ..
So never trust those cloud mining if you really wanted to invest a money why not buying your own mining rigs or antminer to mine bitcoin with your own hardware..

Solving blocks can't be solved without my rigs.

It is impossible, just pay attention to that, they are offering a roi in less than six months, and you should know that not even with a lot of rigs and antminers you are going to get your ROI in less than 6 months (talking about bitcoin right)

went on there website, there roi is  Shocked the first plan is a 2  month roi looks like a scam to me just because of the roi.

Dont be a fool, you are going to lose everything in there, we all know what all those cloudmining sites are capable of, they all are a joke.

if you really want to start mining, then why dont you buy rigs? or just mine with an Antminer, it is not difficult mate, you only need to make a tiny investment.

My antivirus rarely blocks cloud mining websites, but it happens to block this one. Must be a good reason why.

The company may not even be located in Australia. Their location is a virtual office rental which could be rented online from another country for just $29/month - http://cbdaddress.com.au/.

If you look past their Cloudflare, the website is actually hosted in Germany. An Australian company wouldn't go to the opposite side of the world to get web hosting.

The only videos that "Crypto Rick" have posted are about Sun-mining. I suspect he might be directly involved with the company.

Like I said before...their address is a virtual office...a big red flag.

There are some rare solar-powered data centers in Australia, but they put the solar panels on the roof and not on some remote grassland, like in their picture.

Here's a guy claiming he was scammed - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nyj-D0aXlVs

All these still existing cloud mining websites are nothing but scams to a major extent. They just try to attract people by offering great ROI and literally anything that would make greedy people their victims. Just search this in Google :- "Are cloud mining websites scams?", and the number of websites and responses you'd get, that should prove the legitimacy of cloud mining.

Stop sending money to fake mining sites and ponzi schemes!
There's enough proof in this thread to consider this a total scam.

went on there website, there roi is  Shocked the first plan is a 2  month roi looks like a scam to me just because of the roi.

Nothing like a 2 month roi can exist in mining. Normal ROI time for mining equipment is usually between 10 and 15 months!

They won't show pictures of their miners because they have none. A picture of the inside would not compromise security.
They are assuring people it's a safe investment that will only be making them money. Typical for a scam.

They even sent their agent to keep telling us how profitable it can be Wink

Not a new thing for us on every thread being created regarding on cloud mining sites there would really be always an agent  Cool Shilling out that the site is paying legitimately and do force that they are really good which newbie can really see up and might invest and being scammed onwards. Seeing their own mining farm wont really secure investors that they are completely safe and most of the time they wont really tend to show since they don't even posses a single miner.

This is just one of the marketing strategy being used so that they will look appealing to the people but an experienced person happens to to see their lawn will know what they were doing and in fact there's no ROI in just 2 months. I did googled their website and my anti virus mark their website as a 'not safe'. I don't know why, i am sure it is really not safe.

Today you shouldn't trust any bitcoin mining cloud service. As we all know, large amount of power is needed for bitcoin to be mined effectively and I don't think it would be even profitable for them to run a cloud mining service where they would offer to sell gh/s... Maybe if they actually switch from btc to something other like ETH maybe or some other alt-coin.

I mean, it doesn't take much of an energy to think why sole bitcoin cloud mining services aren't viable at all.

Need some spare btc for a new PC that can at least run Adobe Dreamweaver.

That's right, Cloud mining is not an option in investing. We just waste our time and thoughts. There are so many statements that cloud mining is a waste of service, many facts that have been proven so do not we think to invest in Cloud Mining. Try reading some of the information on the internet, almost everyone agrees that Cloud mining will end up a scam. With a variety of sweet promises at the beginning then we are offered with an interesting lure, even they dare say that we will ROI in just a few months. Buy hardware mining and never think about buying cloud mining assets !!!
