some cloud mining providers are actually scam or ponzi's that still did not collapse. so almost by default do not trust cloud mining. there are only few pools/clouds that work. if you choose for cloud, it will either not pay enough as returns (like genesis - legit but likely not breakeven) or it will collapse (like hashocean).
thing about hashocean or other ponzis is also timing and ethics. if you are ok willingly to enter a ponzi, you may as well make a good return before it collapses. but you make that off other people's losses...
Topic: Help. What is Bitcoin mining, and how do I do it? (Read 1471 times)
Hi I Recommend you to stay away From Bitcoin Mining. Now a Days It is not profitable. It is just for scamming people. If you want to do mining for income purpose then Leave this.... That's it.
How can you say that bitcoin mining is not profitable any more just because of the incoming halving? For me, i don't think so, because the price of bitcoin is getting higher and higher after weeks. So the price will be adjusted to make the bitcoin mining still profitable for miners 
. I think it's bad news if miners will leave bitcoin mining 
. It just my opinions 
.

Mining is like collecting a bitcoin but it requires time .. as of now most people doesnt recommend mining because of halving
Mining is .. mining of bitcoin .. It maybe profitable but I dont think on this time cause halving is near .
sorry to say but i personally have no experience in mining. i dont know how does it do work. and how do the people are doing mining.
Mining is the way that virtual coins arise. Via specific machines which decode code blocks (each block there is a quantity of coins). Computers make calculations mathematical and when a calculation is solved the value of that block goes to the portfolio who decided, this process is called mining precisely because it is like gold mining, only virtual, each block that solves gets more difficult than the last. Before it was possible to mine some currencies like Bitcoin with own machine, but the blocks are getting more and more difficult, so today I think it is not possible mining bitcoin with a common computer. To mine requires specific hardware. Mining has a high cost, especially in electricity and hardeware equipment, which makes unfeasible mining in some countries where these costs are very high, as is the case of Brazil = (...
Mining bitcoins right now still not profitable.. and its too late if you start mining right now but if you want to mine just for study purposes you can try mining with ethereum if you have a good pc specs and high GPU.. you can try ethereum to mine..
Not true for all so many variables to consider. A big thing will be electricity price but you still can mine it just is a tighter margin then it was say when asics first came out. Also new generations of miners help a LOT on keeping profitable for those with electricity cost that is high side of profitable. For example the S9 is huge jump in efficiency. So no not everyone will be able to start mining, but there is still opportunity for some.
Ether is kinda another story with GPU people have been able to do it on a higher electricity rate (still cut's into profit though). But it really is only GPU coin worth mining. But it is gaining lot's of popularity so I do agree some might look into it.

Well it is one way of earning bitcoin , you can researched on some site that offers mining like hasocean or others that might suits you
Someone is doing a little gorilla marketing I feel with hashocean. It keeps poping up under Beginner forum and it's not due to it's legitimacy so feel it is a sales push. If you are going to cloud mine there are a LOT of scams out there I highly suggest just going to Hashnest.
It is trusted with being part of Bitmain, and gives you a fair shot of ROI. So those who are reading about mining and want to go cloud side really look at Hashnest. Read about others and you will see how many are scams. And how Hashnest is "legit" for lack of better term.

it is mining of bitcoin ofcourse you just need to join on a mining site then pay and just wait for your interest
Bitcoin mining is where you mine your own bitcoin but i think now it's not the right time to start mining because of the incoming halving and after halving it will result for a mining difficulty increase and divided block reward.
Bitcoin mining is only profitable nowadays if you have access to very cheap (almost free) energy. Otherwise it doesn't make much sense.
Oh. What can you recommend for me then?
Depends what u want. U won't earn from mining but you can earn from holding. Its best investment out there. You would spend money on miners, and you can better invest them in bitcoin itself.
Guys, what about those mining USB rigs available online? is it worth a try? thanks
sorry, you're too late for that too. But, you can mine some altcoins with those USB rigs, still you're burning your PC and this too makes small profit only.
The problem is not cost of PC with usb sticks, it is the actual cost of the sticks compared to hash you get. For example compacs are great I own a few and use a raspberry PI which is very little electricity to run. But cost of sticks.... you will not make back mining.
On altcoin again... usb cost is high on sticks. And really Ether is the altcoin everyone is focused on and it takes pretty good GPU's to mine it.

Bitcoin mining is where you mine your own bitcoin. You can mine bitcoin by using mining rig which is expensive or investing to a cloud mining sites like hashocean, all you need to do to start mining on a cloud mining site is to invest a specific amount of bitcoin depending on the site if how much is the minimum investment.

It's probably not profitable anymore as it used to be and please stay away from "CLoud mining" because most of the services that offers that are scamming people .
Unless you have enough money to make a huge Bitcoin mining farm (which I suppose you don't since you asked this question) It's not really recommended to get involved;
If you've done skills, post on services board section and get paid with Bitcoin.
Thought to interfere here as I thought that this thread is going off-topic...
@OP,
Bitcoin mining means you can produce bitcoins by helping the network to run through your machines that you use to find blocks in order to store the transactions in it, and you get rewarded for the same...
Also, if you want to do it, you can either go for mining equipments that are available online, or can buy contracts available on cloud-mining sites, but it seems very risky...

I heard about buying accounts. Is there a way for me to buy one? How much are accounts?
Digital goods section is where all of the id are being sold, the price depends on the status of that id itselfHigher rank and good quality account tend to sell more compared to the low quality ones
I don't recommend you to buy an id though
I think you need to familiarize yourself woth the community and it's rules so you won't create any signature spam with low quality post
you need cheap electricity, but it's better to do altcoin mining and converting in bitcoin, it's more profitable evne now that ethereum, the big one, is tanking hard
but anyway it's preferible to have 0.05 cent in electricity or solar pannel or whatever green energy you want to have...

You can see more information's about signature campaigns here : https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/overview-of-bitcointalk-signature-ad-campaigns-last-update-01-jan-23-615953 . You won't be able to join or gain a good profit unless you have higher rank (Senior Member or above would be good) .
As for what comes to Faucets , It's totally waste of time since you spend a lot of time + you don't earn something big .

In Auction section there is many accounts being selling. Many Full Members accounts there and they aren't expensive. But if you buy you will need to join a signature campaign to start earning by posting. So you need to have some knowledge about BTC to do it or you will only spam forum with non sense messages.
Better to continue reading forum and learning about some easy things like faucets, cloundm mining, scam schemes (Ponzi, HYIP), signature campaigns and more...
The concept you have chosen is higher then your level of knowledge, you should pick something easier for now because you are new to bitcoin.
You should start with faucets, while using faucets you should keep reading articles or read posts on this forum everyday to get more and more knowledge about bitcoin and after when you get enough knowledge about bitcoin then try to pick up such questions and you will find it easier to find the answers.
Thank you everyone for your time and help. Thank you.
