For myself as a private investor as also a sales admin Hive account@elevategroup it´s pretty clear that those cloud miners have there good reputations but with this "update" at Genesis it´s getting harder to accumulate btc. and I for myself see it as a good chance of the past - if you went in a few years ago maybe, but today?
To mine more lucrative I guess it´s all about a good environment, a place where you have low energy costs for example and in the end a good company 👋
