"Mining is dead," say so many folks whose computers (and electricity bills) can't keep up with the ever-increasing demands for mining Bitcoin.
However....what if you mine using renewable energy instead of electricity? Say....solar power?
And what if, instead of using your own overclocked graphics card....you were able to effectively rent space on someone else's?
That's the concept behind Sun-Mining.
You don't have to buy a $700 gpu to get started, and you don't have to feel (as) bad about burning up the planet with electricity.
Many cloud mining companies have appeared (and disappeared), with too many folks claiming that they're scams.
However, the Australian-based Sun-Mining company seems to be pretty legit.
You can buy in for a fairly low initial investment. It was about equal to $18 in USD when we signed up. For your initial investment, you get a contract that lasts 2-3 years.
You can choose to mine BTC, ETH, LTC, or DASH.
Sure, you're paying out a percentage of what you earn to Sun-Mining each month, but the part you keep is deposited into a secure wallet.
Once your wallet reaches a certain amount, you can either reinvest your earnings to mine more, or you can withdraw it for your own use.

I figure with such a low rate of initial investment, it's worth a try.
I've surely spent $20 on sillier things in my life before.. :)
