Yeah, people are still renting cloud computing power to mine Bitcoin, but it's not as profitable as it used to be. I mean, the days of using a regular computer to mine Bitcoin are long gone, and now you need specialized equipment to do it.
So, even if you rent cloud computing power, you might not make enough to cover the cost of the rental. And, as far as I know, there's nothing illegal about it, as long as you're not using the equipment to do something illegal.

I am also think that it kind of fraud in the eyes of Cryptocurrencies because cloud minging is a think that where you have to invest but if the cloud company wasn't reputable then it could be a loss invest . Even then here you will face lack of controll and also scams and less profit than own minkng rigs. So I would not like to suggest anyone to use cloud mining for mining.
The profitability of mining Bitcoin has decreased significantly over the years due to the increasing difficulty of the mining process and the rising cost of electricity.
Especially now that people tend to use solar panels. As a result, it's becoming less common to mine Bitcoin using cloud computing power. Regarding the legality of mining Bitcoin using cloud computing power, it's not illegal per se, but it's important to check with the terms of service of the cloud computing provider.
Many cloud computing providers have explicitly banned cryptocurrency mining on their platforms, and engaging in such activity can result in the termination of your account.
So, while people are still renting cloud computing power to mine Bitcoin, it's becoming less common due to the decreasing profitability and increasing electricity costs.

Long back itself cloud bitcoin mining is a scam. If someone have said this to be legit and gives good return, just ask them to enjoy the profit and don't fall for it. Following this several projects too came into the market with ICO. Some projects even gained good investment, but weren't able to last for much longer time period.
With hardware equipments itself I wasn't able to make mining profitable, because of the electricity consumption. I don't how people believe in the cloud mining and fall into the trap.

Many people commented on the mining service of cloud scam and my opinion the same, this is a fraud of an old model one thing that is silly if 10 years Bitcoin is present, but there are still people who are deceived by this service, very loved
We didn't expect that there were still people who believed in it, and some even embraced it, all of them realized that Bitcoin had been around for more than 10 years and they still believed in Cloud Mining which most people said was indirectly fraudulent services, as far as Here I see people who get big profits through cloud mining. maybe there is, but I don't know about this.
I have some bad stories about cloud mining, it was one of the few ways I started my earning online journey years ago, after losing some money to MLM high yield projects that stays alive for a few weeks or months before existing scam I started the journey of cloud mining, things went smoothly for few months and one day they stop working, that's how I knew Eobot and genesis mining. There is no cloud mining that's still profitable today, even the few legit ones ends up closing down the business.
On the other hand, beware of cloud mining websites. Those are plain scams.
If you have free money or unlimited wealth, then only try this stunt. As cloud mining sites are expert in luring people into investing in their hash powers. I still cannot believe that, people are falling for these scams repeatedly again and again. No one other than the cloud mining site’s owner will be profitable. Moreover yes its very hard nowadays to mine Bitcoins with CPU or GPU, yes some altcoins are still mineable, but yes these altcoins price varies, so it’s very risky again. So yes OP ask your friend to avoid these types of economical stunts.

"renting" hashpower is never profitable. if it were the OWNERS would not rent out but just mine for self profit
remote hosting equipment you bought, can reduce your costs by hosting it in a cheaper country compared to your home. but still be aware of their hosting/management fee's and also any terms/conditions about what they do with your hardware once it arrives at their warehouses.
(check out the core scientific-celsius shinanigans). corz raised its rates above the us state electric average and held celsius hardware to ransom until celsius paid its fee's which celsius disagreed with

Are people still renting cloud computing Power to mine Bitcoin?
No, you can't mine Bitcoin with CPU or GPU.
As far as I know, Bitcoin can be mined using CPU and GPU but it is well known that it isn't profitable using those anymore since it cannot compete with the hashing power of ASIC.
But if you actually mean cloud mining, almost no one bother with it these days. Although marketplace which let any people buy/sell hashrate (such as NiceHash) manage to maintain their popularity.
True! , even renting hashes on NiceHash seldom brings profit.
Most cloudmining are scams since they eventually crash at some point. It is not a sustainable venture and is most likely used by criminals to scam investors through Ponzi schemes.
Are people still renting cloud computing Power to mine Bitcoin? A brother from another mother told me this and I said its impossible because I knew they are not profitable anymore, I might be wrong, who knows? That's why I need to ask fellow bitcoiners on this forum.. Is this still possible today? Where not even 20TH is no more profitable, or people are doing it illegally? Because the way he hyped this I am having a second thoughts maybe its illegal.
I think topics related to this has been discussed several times on this forum,Like you said, not only is this no longer profitable, but also scammers have hijacked this type of mining Bitcoin, if you search through Google, you will probably see majority of cloud mining platforms that are still online where people can rent computing powers to mine bitcoin, but I tell you that 99.9 percent of them all are nothing but scam, so I personally would advice you to avoid this at all cost.
Better to use that money you would have spent on rent and buy Bitcoin and hold, better Than dashing it to scammers.

It's possible that it still exists, and it happens to those who don't fully know about Bitcoin mining, and we'd rather say it's not good (not recommended).
Apart from not recommending this cloud mining and this is an attempt at fraud, some people say the same thing about cloud mining, we are not so sure about this work, besides this cloud mining is vulnerable to making computers or devices at risk of viruses, and seeing the development of equipment that The more modern it makes cloud mining far behind, especially from the profit and risk factors that we mentioned earlier.
You need to be careful about cloud mining, some people here say this is a big scam.

Cloud minings are prone to scams and you need to look out for their offers because most of the time they lure you with their good-to-be-true offers to their investors. Then they won't execute their plans too early because they wanted to maximize the profits their about to steal and that's what happened to most of the investors in the year 2015-2017 most of them has fallen victim to this kind of scheme and they lose their bitcoins which if they were sold this year, it could turn the table of their lives in a positive way.

Bitcoin cloud mining is a known scam since that mechanism doesn't work with Bitcoin and any form of the cloud mining site is illegal as others have rightly said. In my early days in Bitcoin I was scammed by this so-called cloud mining site that kicked me out a few weeks after registration, I fall victim to their scam due to my novice state at that time.
I lost all my investment, but that incident lead me to search for more information about bitcoin and with that quest for knowledge I located this really helpful forum.
Plus, you would take the costs out of the earnings from the customers as well, meaning cloud system could technically work. It's just that nobody has done it in a legit way, and that's the issue.
Yes, as everyone said here, cloud mining is mostly scam and the rest is no longer profitable.
I have tried some cloud mining sites in the past, most of them do not pay, but there was one company that paid, which is genesis-mining (I think it is still working today) I bought hash power from the site and I was getting some profits on a daily basis, but after a short period of time the profits began to decrease on a daily basis , I didn't even get a ROI.
My advice is stay away from all cloud mining sites.

Bitcoin mining is profitable but when you have the right equipment and a better environment to accommodate them then only you can save electricity bills and make money. As far as I know cloud mining is not really possible anymore to bitcoin so you can partner with others and start mining with ASICs or simply invest on bitcoin for long term.
Nowadays, cloud mining is nothing but a scam. From the start, it was a Ponzi scheme, and many people were deceived in this way. Still, some scammers are attempting to deceive us. To mine bitcoin, you need to purchase mining equipment. Never trust meaningless promises. You should have consulted the forum before falling victim to fraud. After reading the responses, I hope you have a better understanding of what cloud mining actually is. Explore the forum more often to discover how to earn Bitcoin legally. Don't give your money to fraudulent artists.
In this day and age am shocked someone still believe in cloud mining. They were able to deceive and scam investors back in the days as many people don't have the right knowledge about these so-called cloud mining platforms. But now people are more informed and a lot wiser.
There is a strong posibility that most of the cloud mining platforms are running a Ponzi scheme where they use the funds of new customers to pay the returns of older customers without actually mining any btc. Many of them charge high fees and may not be transparent about their costs which can make it difficult for investors to know if their investment is profitable or not. It is better not to be convinced by your brother from another mother. Cloud mining are bad news.
