Why are they going to shut down mining pool? As far as I remember, they were charging 2.5% to pool members and they have a good portion of hashrate. In what way could running a pool be unprofitable for them?
I understand the shut down of TX accelerator because lately there haven't been any transaction fees related problems and probably no one was using it.
If you are looking at cloud mining offers instead, the usual red flags: a fixed daily return, a bonus that unlocks only after a deposit, multi-level team rewards, and hashrate you cannot check anywhere.
I don't know how many times this has to be said, but to me, cloud mining is just total bullshit. I don't care if the 1% is legitimate, but in the long run, it's not self-sustaining. Unfortunately, this is how so many lazy "investors" end up getting trapped.
Cloud mining simply doesn't make sense. It should be profitable for the one who launches the service, not for the customer. If you offer me to buy a cloud mining contract from you and you put it like a beautiful and profitable thing, then the logical question is, why do you sell this in the first place? The answer is that cloud mining makes profit for the service provider, more than the customer. That's why no one should invest into cloud mining but beautiful marketing and beautiful lies sell well.
