What is the difference between cloud mining and miner mining?

Category：Mining GuideAuthor：BitFuFu2023.08.13Cloud Mining

Compared to mining with physical mining rigs, cloud mining offers various benefits such as multiple choices, low risk, and flexible returns. Cloud mining provides the advantage of flexible hashpower amounts and duration options, allowing users to select according to their needs. With cloud mining, there's no need to purchase expensive mining equipment or worry about any risks related to equipment malfunctions. Earnings are directly transferred from third-party mining pools to users' specified BTC wallets, and the platform doesn't touch users' earnings.

	Mining with Miners	Cloud Mining
Hardware	Requires purchasing, setting up, and maintaining mining hardware	No need for hardware
Cost	High initial investment, including hardware, maintenance, and energy costs	Low investment, only purchasing hashing power, followed by electricity fees, cost varies with different hashing power purchase periods
Tech Requirements	Requires mining knowledge, including hardware setup and software configuration	No need to understand mining technology, only basic order placement process and mining principles are necessary
Risks	Need to handle hardware failures, fluctuating energy costs	No need to bear hardware and energy costs, secure, stable, and convenient mining
Returns	Income fluctuates, influenced by operational conditions and coin price volatility	Relatively stable income, only affected by coin price fluctuations
Flexibility	Can change miners and mining pools, but there's a loss of mining income during switching	Flexible hashing power, flexible selection of purchase periods, high hashing power stability of up to 95%, earnings automatically sent to users' BTC wallets
