I am very sad about this as well. I was looking for a legit cloud mining service for a very long time, and people directed me towards Bitmain/Hashnest - and it looked like the real deal. But the more I read up on peoples' issues with them and what Bitmain was currently doing, the more evident it became that Bitmain might not be the holy grail of cloud mining services after all.

Saddest part is, there aren't really any alternatives left. Out of all the existing cloud mining services, Bitmain seemed to be the one that could actually be legit.
