Besides all this, this topic is far from new. I remember a lot of ICOs that were held on the topic of mining. And judging by the number of players in this market (mining hotels, cloud mining, mining contracts in a couple of clicks from your computer, etc.), this is a highly competitive sphere and there is no reason to expect big profits (and therefore investor interest) here.
Yes, there really is huge competition in terms of mining projects and most of the people including investors have lost faith from mining projects like cloud mining, genesis mining, etc because there were a number of such scam projects into the markets which initially gave some profits but at the last eat all of the profits and ran away without leaving any footprints.
That is why most of the investors have stopped showing interest towards mining project but yet a genuine mining project with some profitable strategy might again attract those investors and might even hit the markets if it really gets that potential. But, a huge development would be needed behind such project.
