I believe it is too risky especially nowadays to invest into either of those. To me I think I will just be too stressed out after putting my BTC down as either can just run away with it.

And most of the people asking for loans doesn't seem to have anything close enough as collateral for the amount they will ask.

So I guess to me more of buy and hold when the prices are low as they are at the moment.

You can have high rates of return when you invest bitcoins but the risk is very high. Lenders or Bitcoin sites with a lot of traffic make a lot of money.

Cloud mining profitable isn't as bad as everyone think, especially now when hardware is cheaper then shipment charges. You can actually get a better deal buying cloud mining...

You will not get any profit with cloud mining. That's for sure Smiley

Only profit you will get is if you have tons of refs. But in both cases its hard call to make.

I'm not say cloud mining is bad, 'cause I've got ROI. But, I think invest cloud mining in this time is bad choice. Except in the near future bitcoin price immediately rose.

If you make money because of a rise in the BTC price but you get less BTC that you could have bought up, you didn't made ROI in BTC

If you want to invest in cloud mining, pick the latest which offers unbelievable returns, earn and then leave it before it goes bust. For instance if you had invested in LTCgear early you would have made RoI and some more.
If you invest in cloud mining contracts that are being sold at a significantly lower price then the competition then it is probably too good to be true. It is not realistic to expect a company to sell mining contracts at as low of prices that LTCgear is selling at.

On some companies that sell hash power you cannot sell back your GHS

Obviously it was implied to get into one where you can sell the shares. LTCgear, Gawminers, maybe AMHash too.

I would do one that you know has a big data center.  I personally have trouble investing in a company that shows no proof they are not a ponzi scheme.

I prefer hardware myself, but agree some cloud mining companies are looking a lot better then they once did.

If you didn't meet the owners you have to trust them to invest, not blindly trust, you can be careful and invest only a fraction of your bitcoins and keep asking for information and proofs that the hardware actually exists

One thing to keep in mine is if you read something great about any site, look for referral.  If there is a hidden referral chances are it is not a fair and even write up.

I'm beginning to realize that a lot of companies, no matter how seemingly good and legit, are actually just taking you for another wild ride. Don't do anything with Bitcoin unless you're buying coins and putting them into your wallet for expected value on speculation. Just my advice.

You have decent companies, I would say most Bitcoin companies that are more than a year and a half are decent.

coindesk, primedice ect.

some entities that are not companies are decent too : bitcointalk Wink

Cex.io

Don't lend because i've seen many got burned loaning people who has no collateral.

You should invest only after having a clear business plan and having met in persons those who are going to mine

the only 'cloud mining' that is reliable is p2p mining rentals (this is not an endorsement for my sig)
here's what i suggest - don't spend those BTC, just hold onto them, and wait.

I would do neither myself.  Loans are just too risky.  

And I prefer hardware over "cloud" mining.  If you go cloud mining go with trusted one.
