Title: Alternative to Nicehash? Buying or selling hashing power
Post by: ca1987 on October 22, 2017, 11:17:57 PM
I like nicehash. Anywhere else I could buy additional power from or sell it to?

The cloud mining stuff with the 1-3 year contracts isn't what I'm looking for; I want to be able to place custom orders for as little as 24 hours and cancel anytime like on nicehash.

Thanks!

I'm fairly certain there aren't any other services like it. All the other "cloud mining" sites are pretty much just scams.

Maybe try out Genesis Mining. I'm not a huge fan of cloud mining because I personally think they're a huge waste of time and money, but I'm not stopping you. Do your research before investing money in it.

Sorry -- does Genesis allow you to buy/sell any amount of power any time to anywhere like nicehash? I only saw the years-long contracts on their sales site.

I don't know how nicehash works, but I'm pretty sure you can't sell hashpower on GenesisMining, though you can allocate some of your hashpower to other coins.

Maybe you would be interested in miningrigrentals?

I remember that they were fairly active a few years back, i have actually no idea whether or not they are still legit. So use at your own risk. I'd say that nice hash is still the leader and you should aim to use them if possible.

But on miningrigrentals, the minimum is 8hrs for most rigs.

If this is what you want then Genesis Mining will never work for you. That is more like cloud mining than renting out mining rigs or offer spare hashpower on the market. Plus you'll never make your ROI back and you are not able to choose the coin to mine.

Timerland's right, miningrigrentals should be something you should look into more. They are still active on their twitter and operations.
