A much better idea would be to have a friend or family who lives in a country where electricity is cheap and have them run the miner. That way you know you actually own a miner and can split the profits. Obviously, you have to be able to trust your friend but I would rather trust a friend than some random website wouldn't you?

I also see they sell nodes. Another thing you could do is run a node from your own pc and you will only have to pay collateral which will be locked in your own wallet under your control. You will not be giving your colalteral to anyone but rather locking it in. As long as it is locked in you will slowly generate more of that coin. I would rather do that than hand my money over to a company.

I think home mining is very risky. Very high costs with no guarantee of return on investment. It's easier to buy cloud mining.

I treat every company that offers cloud mining like a scam because there were at least 50 of them discussed on the forum over the years and probably 45/50 never had any miners to begin with. Out of those who had you had to really work your ass off to make money like get a few people use your referral code and such.

They're offering miners at some really low prices which is also suspicious. Like if you check out some links like https://www.asicminervalue.com/miners/bitmain/antminer-s19-pro-110th
you'll see that the lowest price for S19 is close to 3000 USD. Even the official resellers like https://www.antminerdistribution.com/antminer-s19/ have it at 2700 EUR and they are claiming to have it ready for shipping at 2200 EUR.

It's possible they're trying to sell cheap but usually when you see something for cheap there's a catch.

It's also strange that they have so much money to have all those expensive miners in stock but they can't even get their site translated. When you go to EN version and click around you'll see that hallf of the stuff is still in French. Like this part https://feel-mining.com/en/product/asic/antminer-s19 or this https://feel-mining.com/en/product/staking/loki-network




O_o You have found some good things :-).

Are all posting a weird referral code to be suspicious too?

I found the opinions of the feel-mining site:

Its a commercial website ".com" and yet the site is not in English. All of the reviews you posted are also not in English. Seems strange.
I would not even bother to do a research on a site which doesn't have the content in English.

You can try buying an ASIC miner from marketplace if there's somebody willing to sell
Also, you can try buying it from bitmain as well.

You won't actually buy the machine as stated in the website. That is misleading because you don't physically own it. I doubt that they will even give you any document proving your ownership. They control the machine while you pay for whatever service they charge you.

Another thing, I would stay away from any platform that offers cloud mining service.

Wasn't that what Genesis Mining was doing? They'd sell you a lifetime mining contract and after a year send you an email that due to difficulty change your contract is no longer profitable and will be closed. At least they had real miners but they were cheaters in their own way.


Referral codes are normal in this business.

If you read some of the reviews you'll see that most of these people were doing staking with them which is much cheaper and can realy be done with just a few dollars worth of altcoins that you can get for free from various airdrops and campaigns.

It's also easy for the company to run a legit staking business because they don't need any hardware to do it.

I really doubt that they have a real hardware mining facility and that you will get what you pay for if you buy one of those 2000 dollar antminers.

I needed a service because at home the cost of electricity is very expensive :-(. On the contract I could see that we can recover the machine free of charge as we wish.
