Whats the best cloud mining site?

[jjc326]

Gotta be really careful. Don't put all your eggs in one basket. Bet few if any have been really researched. It's a shot in the dark that they aren't ponzis.

I do not know where the best mining cloud, i think
pbmining has great prices but is most likely a scam.
cex.io is too expensive, will never ROI
does anyone ever tried mining with Hashlet? what do you think?

[notlist3d]

Personally i like buying equipment and you can find a host if needed.  Then at the end you have the piece of equipment.

Hashlet.... i think we will all see in 45 days or so if it was a amazing investment or what it will be.  CEX is still to high, other is too new to give good answer.

I like the CEX.IO interface. {Could not get it to work with Firefox though} The maintenance fees will kill most of your profits, so in affect, you are just funding their mining equipment, with limited gain on your investment.

PBMining - Avoid at all cost. {I have seen nothing, showing that they are acctually doing any mining} That is a indication of a ponzi running. {Yes, they will have the best price per hash, because they have no overheads to pay, like electricity / mining hardware etc.}

Until I see evidence that they mined one block, I would never invest there.

Until now, no cloud mining shows any potential to reach ROI. {Nice to do as a hobby, to have passive income, but no ROI} ROI = Return on investment

Since this thread got bumped, I will refer all new people to read this before they throw money at not-in-hand mining:

Would you give a stranger on the street with a fancy sign $100 if he says he can pay back $200 over a 6 month period?

I have no Problem with CEX. Been Mining there for long time.

And a few of them is already gone now.

You should take a look at the hashlets from Gawminer.

[pawel7777]

Maybe not the best, but I use bit-miner.com . They've been around for a while, had no issues with payments.
They sell a shares in mining assets, pay twice a month. You cannot sell your shares tho.

Sometimes they got really good prices per GHs

[devonne]

I use bit-miners.com because it as an history of confidence and its payments are quite reasonable.

I don't know.  I'm wondering if the whole thing is a scam.  I have seven miners at zencloud totaling about 23.5 MH/s running scrypt, of course, on ZenHashlets and hashlet primes using ZenPool.  My latest numbers?  BTC payout .01450690, with total maintenance fees of .00480816 for a balance of .00969874 per day, if today was an average day.  And that's with two miners not being charged maintenance fees!  When they start being charged maintenance fees, my daily fees will go over .005 BTC/day, while the daily payouts are steadily dropping.  I think the arc looks to me like I will be paying more in maintenance fees than I'm earning by about January.   I don't know what I'll do at that point, I guess I'll just tell them to turn them off and write off the expense as a learning experience.  All of that is aside from the $500 or so that I've paid for the miners.  So, as far as I can tell, all I've done is enrich the people at GAW.

You should separate your profit/loss due to mining from your profit/loss due to holding bitcoins. Compare your total income in BTC to your investment in BTC (rather than dollars). That will tell you if mining was profitable or not. Then look at the value of a bitcoin when you invested compared to the current value. That will tell you if holding bitcoins was profitable or not.

There are many but always go with the most popular out there. There's a lower possibility they would run away or something.
I recommend PbMining i have used cex.io too but in my opinion it's the best out there.

[pooya87]

I am at the CEX.IO atm, is there any better since on cex, fees are really high?

i started with CEX.IO for cloud mining but now u use it just as an exchanger

You could try PBMining, but I don't know if they are legit or not.

the only ad i saw from PBmining is the 5 year contract. is there any shorter one?

[mistercoin]

Hashie and GAW IMO

I think that cex.io is one of the best site for cloud mining.

[galdur]

I think that cex.io is one of the best site for cloud mining.

It´s great if you like payouts in the negative.

[odolvlobo]

I think that cex.io is one of the best site for cloud mining.

cex.io is a nice site, but the shares are too expensive. If you buy shares at the current price, you are probably going to lose money because the difficulty needs to drop for the next few months in order to make a profit.

Ironically, that is actually good news. Until recently, you were practically guaranteed to lose money. People investing in cex.io shares have lost an average of around 50%.

[Harvey Specter]

Don't bother with cloud mining you will only lose out in the long run.

GAWminers and/or cex.io, evenly spread
