History

CEX.IO was established in London, 2013 and first started as a cloud mining provider that possessed Ghash.io pool. Cloud Mining is a concept of forming groups (pools), where their joint efforts are rewarded with greater income, compared to individual mining with personal hardware. In case of cloud mining, all Bitcoin mining is done in the cloud, and once a block is mined, users receive payouts according to their shares via PPLNS.

In 2014, Ghash.io (mining pool of CEX.IO) contributed to over 42% of the overall Bitcoin mining power.

Early 2015, CEX.IO announced about suspension of cloud mining services due to low Bitcoin price, Ghash.io pool was closed, and CEX.IO continued operating as a cryptocurrency exchange.

In October 2017, CEX.IO launched the trading of Digital Cash (DASH) and Zcash (ZEC).
