Have a look at http://cryptoverse.org/cloudmining/ for a list of cloud mining providers.

I think you could just do this right here on bitcointalk. If you want to sell your jalapenos hashpower for BTC just make a thread.

kryptologika.com  -- hashing power exchange platform
-reasonable prices + silver as a residual value
0% trading fees
low maintenance fees
The site was just launched last week.



Hmm...the sparse description and lack of any verifiable proof not to mention it was "Just launched last week" makes it seem like a scam just ready to happen.
I don't mean to be distrustful, and I really don't want to, but I'm not going to invest my BTC in something that looks...how should I put it..."sketchy"

Before people invest into cloudmining they should research:
-Pirate@40
-Hashking
-Zhoutong
-GLBSE
-TradeFortress
-MtGox collapse
-bASIC, Hashfast, BFL

None of these lovely people have gone to jail for their lovely thefts and scams.  If your cloudmining company runs off with you 10BTC contract who is going to get your money back for you?

PBmining is a good start it's cheap and at no charge.Buy from there and experience quality like i did.
Oh good... another shill account promoting the wonders of pbmining.  Here's something for you to consider: PBMining is a nothing more than a Ponzi scheme.  They have not proven they actually mine anything at all.  Payouts are exactly "expected" earnings.  Payouts are sent through mixing services.
Exactly my thoughts.
PB mining lacks transparency, if you lose the money you won't even know in what country to look.

I hope people realize when they buy cloud mining they are inherently giving profits to a mining company up front, and the mining company will use that money to buy more hash which will compete with the user's own purchases.  The only person benefiting from this is the mining company.

which is why if you are looking for a cloud deal ----- you own the gear----

 gawminers.com


is the best  especially true if you are paying more then 11 cents a kwatt.  no one beats what they offer.  for scrypt or  btc

order with a cc
hashing within a day
free use of a psu
and about 10 cents a kwatt to mine your gear..  

first month of hosting is free.  and you can have the gear shipped back to you after the free hosting ends.

 
Yeah Josh offers a really decent package but what he offers is more akin to co-location than cloud mining.  You actually purchase and own the rigs.

I have started a 440 GH/S 12 mth cloud contract with https://www.nimbusmining.com/ since july 2014 for the purpose of manufactured spending on my credit card.

They allow you to switch to different pools, and I am currently pointing the hash power to Slush pool

So far so good, Slush pool reported the actual hash power in their pool (actually at or around 440 GH/S most of the time) and I got my payout to my wallet.
So I believe they are actually operating but even at the rate of their gold contract you will never achieve ROI unless you buy in extremely huge quantity with additional discount.


So there actually is a cloud mining provider that allows you to use whatever pool you want.  Their recommendation of using eclipse is just awful, though.  They state, "a reasonable 5% fee".  Who are they kidding?  5%?  Thanks, but no.  Also, the prices they are charging guarantee you'll never see profit.  5TH/s is $27,650.  Yikes.  That's just plain highway robbery and further proves my point that cloud mining exists to make the service provider the profit, not you.  What were you thinking paying that kind of price (500GH/s for $2750)Huh  One single Antminer S3 can get your 500GH/s and costs you about $400.  Add in a PSU for another $100.  Unless you're paying $0.75 per kWh there's no way you're spending $2250 a year in electricity costs to make up the difference this company is charging.

Yes kinda. But I want to own the ghz and not rent it

So you want to trade in your miners for credit on cloud mining? Depending on how many you have, I might take you up on that offer.

I would want to point my rigs at any pool I want though...
What you are describing is co-locating hardware that you own, not purchasing cloud mining.  A number of vendors provide this type of service.  For example, GAWMiners partners with ZenMiners to provide collocation of purchased hardware (both scrypt and SHA-256).  There's also the traditional method of finding a data center and having them host for you.  An example of this is Advania in Iceland.  They host your hardware at 90 Euros per month per kilowatt.  An SP30 hosted there would cost about 270 Euros a month.

PBmining has no proof, that they are mining. Most people see it as a Ponzi, but until proof are given, I would stay away, even if they cheaper than the rest.

If you only going to break even after 9 to 10 months, it would be better to look at companies with a good reputation and track record.

Cheaper is not always the best indicator that you getting value for money.  Sad

Agree, although pbmining is cheapest in terms of gh/s but beware....

If something looks too good to be true, it usually is.  I have no proof but what the heck are they doing offering it so cheaply?  It's like the Chinese trying to dump steel or solar energy products and undercut the market to get the competition out.  Sorry for picking the Chinese, they're doing it now but other countries did it in the past, then you jack prices up and you control the market.

Check my sig for good and honest rates, I've even seen them give refunds when people aren't happy when I think the customer doesn't even deserve a refund.

Take it for what it's worth, but the company in my signature (bottom of post) says that one reason they got into cloud mining is so that GHash doesn't get the capability to 51% the network, and other cloud mining sites seem a little "too good to be true."  The cost and then fees are laid out for you on the site so there are no "surprises."

Since each ASIC company that was a vendor in the last year is now operating its farm, GHash is becoming less and less of a threat and may not have the means to get there.
