bitcoin.com cloud mining contract choice

Fri Aug 04, 2017 11:54 pm

I am looking at purchasing hashrate in the bitcoin.com cloud mining pool, and I notice that the 3 month contracts are continuously sold out.

Are the 3 month contracts more lucrative than the other contracts? It seems to me that the lifetime contract, in the long run, would be more lucrative than a temporary contract, but maybe I'm missing something.

Is there something I don't know about the 3 month contracts that makes them more valuable?

The prices for each of the contracts change weekly or even daily, so sometimes one is a better deal than another.

For the shorter contracts in particular, they're much more sensitive to upcoming difficulty increases which can be estimated by examining the current hashrate. If the next difficulty increase looks to be a small one, or even negative, a short term contract can be a very good deal! For this reason, they can be sold out sometimes. As well, the 3-month contracts can be good to just test out what could mining is all about before jumping into a Lifetime contract.

I've made a calculator that you can use to estimate returns from pool.bitcoin.com cloud mining contracts and you can find the link in my signature. Keep in mind that with the Bitcoin Cash fork that happened just a few days ago, things are pretty volatile in the Bitcoin world right now!

GreyWyvern, any plans to update your calculator to support easy calculation of Bitcoin Cash contracts in the future?
I know things are a bit volatile at the moment, but it would be fun to have this tool once things settle down.

Sure. Once you offer them, I will calculate them.

cloud mining is a scam and you will never make money. do not buy that shit!

No one is going to just give away free money. That is what miners would be doing if they sold you their hashing power at a loss so that you could make money. I'd bet a fair amount of these cloud mining scams are selling hash power that doesn't even exist too.
