We welcome all Scrypt miners to try our pool. It pays in average 20% more then direct Litecoin mining. Check stats at https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=stats (Scrypt tab) and point your miner to stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:3333 or stratum+tcp://stratum.westhash.com:3333!

KnC Titan users:

We suggest you to use #xnsub AND #skipcbcheck parameters to get stable mining on NiceHash or WestHash, example:

stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com/#xnsub#skipcbcheck

With those settings you'll be able to get a stable 350 Mh/s average speed with fw 1.95 overclocking at 325MHs.

Proof:
https://www.nicehash.com/imgs/KnC_Titan_NiceHash.png

btw: average NiceHash/WestHash Scrypt profitability is aprox. 25% more then direct Litecoin mining.

Is there a difference for us miners between mining on nicehash or on westhash? I know that you've already "merged" the payouts, but will those who mine to westhash get better pings when they're actually on the west-coast? If so, is there a way, ping-wise or api-wise, to get the best stratum a user should connect too? If not, I bet you're already doing the rerouting behind the scenes ;)

We have ping disabled on our stratum servers, but you can ping the endpoints of our provider's datacenters:

"ping speedtest.ams01.softlayer.com" for NiceHash
"ping speedtest.sea01.softlayer.com" for WestHash

this will give you ping results, use the one that gives you lower ping results (lower ms).

Thanks ;) Implemented it in my mod of MinerControl: https://git.io/NDtO (https://git.io/NDtO)
Will pick the one with best ping time at init.

For those interested in mining WhirpoolX on NiceHash/WestHash: WhirpoolX algorithm has been added

You can download sgminer with whirpoolx support here:

https://www.westhash.com/index.jsp?p=software#whirpoolx (https://www.westhash.com/index.jsp?p=software#whirpoolx)

MULTIALGO note:
WhirpoolX is disabled on multilago by default (because currently you have to use a special sgminer fork and the transition will probably take a while). But nevertheless if you want to use multialgo you can still use it by manually adding WhirpoolX factor to your pool's password setting, for example:

"pass" : "f0=0;f2=0;f3=8.5;f4=4.5;f5=500;f6=3.5;f7=14;f8=0.35;f9=1.25;f10=135",

(as always, remember to add this to ALL your NiceHash/WestHash pools entries, not only for the new WhirpoolX entry).

p.s: we haven't tested sgminer-whirpoolx fork with other algorithms

If you own some Scrypt miners you should really check the latest profitability on Scrypt NiceHash/WestHash which is more then 100% above direct Litecoin mining - point your Scrypt miners to NiceHash/WestHash!

Thanks for the very quick reply. When stats are available by balance jumps to where it should be.
Looks like it's just a problem with the stats page.

Since nothing seems to be lost I'll ride it out

IMPORTANT notice for sellers (miners): we're switching to new DNS structure for stratum servers

Hello,

To make our service even more scalable as well as future proof for new algorithms and fluctuating hashing power among different algorithms, we've prepared new DNS naming for our stratum servers.

Please note that there will be no hard switch to the new naming structure, we are using a soft grace period in which old and new naming coexists, and both, old and new stratum addresses works.

Nevertheless, we are asking you to make the following changes to your miner's configurations as soon as possible. The new DNS naming is already active and can be already used. Here are two major changes:

1) westhash.com is being renamed to usa.nicehash.com. This is ONLY true for stratum server addresses, WestHash web interface will still be available at https://www.westhash.com. However, we'll be merging both markets (and later adding also an Asian market) into single web interface in the future updates (of course, still with geographically separated physical locations of servers).

2) Each algorithm is having it's own unique stratum mining DNS address.

---
Here is a list for EU location servers (aka NiceHash):

Code:
scrypt.eu.nicehash.com
sha256.eu.nicehash.com
scryptnf.eu.nicehash.com
x11.eu.nicehash.com
x13.eu.nicehash.com
keccak.eu.nicehash.com
x15.eu.nicehash.com
nist5.eu.nicehash.com
neoscrypt.eu.nicehash.com
lyra2re.eu.nicehash.com
whirlpoolx.eu.nicehash.com
qubit.eu.nicehash.com
quark.eu.nicehash.com

And here is a list for USA location servers (aka WestHash):

Code:
scrypt.usa.nicehash.com
sha256.usa.nicehash.com
scryptnf.usa.nicehash.com
x11.usa.nicehash.com
x13.usa.nicehash.com
keccak.usa.nicehash.com
x15.usa.nicehash.com
nist5.usa.nicehash.com
neoscrypt.usa.nicehash.com
lyra2re.usa.nicehash.com
whirlpoolx.usa.nicehash.com
qubit.usa.nicehash.com
quark.usa.nicehash.com

Note that there is no more "stratum" string, the name of the algorithm implies this. Therefore you have to replace the string "stratum" with "[algorithm].eu" or "[algorithm].usa".

Essentially you have to delete the string "stratum" and then copy-paste "sha256.eu", "scrypt.eu", "x11.eu", "x13.eu", etc. or for USA location (aka WestHash) "sha256.usa", "scrypt.usa", "x11.usa", "x13.usa", etc.

For example, replace:

Code:
stratum.nicehash.com:3333
stratum.nicehash.com:3334
stratum.nicehash.com:3336
stratum.nicehash.com:3337
... etc.

with

Code:
scrypt.eu.nicehash.com:3333
sha256.eu.nicehash.com:3334
x11.eu.nicehash.com:3336
x13.eu.nicehash.com:3337
... etc.

And for USA (aka WestHash) location, replace:

Code:
stratum.westhash.com:3333
stratum.westhash.com:3334
stratum.westhash.com:3336
stratum.westhash.com:3337
... etc.

with

Code:
scrypt.usa.nicehash.com:3333
sha256.usa.nicehash.com:3334
x11.usa.nicehash.com:3336
x13.usa.nicehash.com:3337
... etc.

We HIGHLY RECOMMEND you to use the copy-paste (Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V) function for replacing individual strings instead of typing it manually to avoid typing mistakes - keep in mind that incorrectly typed address will result into dead/inactive pool connection.

And we kindly ask you to make these changes until June 15th, 2015. After this date the old naming of stratum servers will be deprecated.

Thank you for using our service and hopefully these changes won't cause you too many troubles. If you have any additional questions or troubles with making the required changes, please let us know to support@nicehash.com.

Thank you for using our service!

Short notice for miners on Lyra2REv2: Please note that if you're using sgminer under Windows you should NOT use AMD Catalyst driver 15.x since you'll only get HW errors on Lyra2REv2 algorithm. Instead use 14.4 Catalyst drivers (http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop/previous/detail?os=Windows%207%20-%2064&rev=14.4).

Hello,

A new version of NiceHash Miner has just been released. The new version 1.2.1.0 brings highly optimized AMD GPU mining for popular X11 (+100%), Quark (+50%) and Lyra2REv2 (+200%) algorithms on AMD Pitcairn, Tahiti and Hawaii GPUs along with some additional new features and bug fixes. The significant boost in X11, Quark and Lyra2REv2 algorithms are shown here when mining on four GPUs: R9 280X (Tahiti), 7950 (Tahiti), R9 290x (Hawaii) and 7870 (Pitcairn): https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=news&id=53

This is mandatory upgrade for users with AMD GPUs. After upgrading to this release re-run the Precise benchmark if you are using AMD GPUs. And remember - NiceHash Miner is a truly easy-to-use Windows software that will quickly turn your PC, workstation or server into money-making machine. Detailed description, application options and even full source code is available on the GitHub page.

Go ahead and get it here: download here (https://github.com/nicehash/NiceHashMiner/releases)!

Hello nicehash,

I have noticed you have taken an interest in mining software development including ASIC, AMD, Nvidia, and CPU
mining.

Does this extend to Intel IGPU mining? I've seen some discussion of the topic and that at one time cgminer
supported it but I haven't found anything concrete to build on. If there is somewhere I can start I would like
to pursue this.

I would also like to plug my recent fork of TPruvot's cpuminer-multi. It doesn't compile on windows yet
but I'm working  on it.

We haven't worked on Intel IGPU mining support yet. However, since Intel IGPU generally supports OpenCL, it should be possible to add support for these GPUs into sgminer. Our latest branch of sgminer is available here: https://github.com/nicehash/sgminer. Currently we don't have any plans on adding Intel IGPU mining support into sgminer, however this does sound like interesting project and if someone is willing to do the development effort for this integration, we would definitely donate to this effort once integration is complete.

Thanks for the quick reply.  I tried another version of sgminer and it didn't recognize the IGPU. Since it has
apparently worked in the past on cgminer I was hoping the development had already been done and it would
simply be an integration effort. I'll keep looking.

If you have some other GPUs in the system, in addition to Intel IGPU (like AMD or NVIDIA cards), than you have to play with --gpu-platform <value> in order to detect proper cards.

Which URL are you trying to connect to? Use https://www.nicehash.com, WestHash was merged with NiceHash a long time ago. WestHash is now only a separate location, we call it USA location, while the primary location is EU location (formerly NiceHash location).

Now at the old Westhash address people get a message from Cloudflare about temporary problems with the connection and advising them to try after several minutes. There is nothing about being not active.

There would be better a redirection to www.nicehash.com.

This thread has been pretty quiet, I hope people are still reading.

I have a couple of questions general in nature but do apply to Nicehash.

Is there a list of nicknames for all the different blake variations? I like the more technical names
Nicehash uses but I don't know which one is blake, blake2s etc. I'd like to incorporate them as aliases
in cpuminer-opt.

Also lyra2re has been hot on Nicehash the last couple of days. I thought that algo was dead alfter everyone moved to
lyra2rev2. I haven't found any new lyra2re coins. Anyone know what's going on?

Thanks.

Edit: I got blake256r8vnl working as vanilla but I can't get a connection to blake256r8 as blakecoin. Is this pool running?
        Then there is blake256r14, is that decred?

In order to mine Ethereum is it missing the right Ethash script in NiceHash?

Hey, NiceHash ... any chance you will ever make ethereum mining - stratum capable?

I cant find a eth stratum pool that does an exchange to btc and if there is a pool that does exchange to btc .. it doesnt support stratum. This is frustrating =(

A quick reminder for all of you that missed that info: you can use our advanced Profitability calculator (https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=calc) to easily calculate your profits with different GPUs or test your own GPU with NiceHash Miner (https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=nhmintro).

Keep on mining ;)


Best regards,
NiceHash team.

I'm getting a lot of stale share rejects mining cryptonight. It can mine clean for hours but then it will start rejecting
20-25% (up to 50% on 5 min average) of the submitted shares. This occurs with both the Nicehash CPU miner as well
as cpuminer-opt with the Nicehash mod. It also occurs on all miners at the same time.

It seems to be clearly a pool issue. Is it being investigated? It may not hurt buyers very much but it's a significant
penalty for miners.

Where are you from? Note, that we do not have HK and TK proxies up for cryptonight yet, you are being directed directly to US server.

We also checked some miners (top ones with highest speed) and there are some miners with high stale issues. Since there are only some and there is no correlation between them and because some miners are completely clean (especially big ones), we assume this must be a networking issue between us and you. Also, a stale share happens when miner is "too late", which also suggests a networking issue.

What you may try is to mine on different server, EU/US.

Thank's for the response. I switched one of my miners from usa to eu and will monitor.

A networking issue could explain why all miners are affected simultaneously, however, only the cryptonight algo is affected
which suggests something specific to that algo.

I will update when the next wave of rejects occurs.

Edit: I just got a cluster 5 rejects from EU while USA stayed clean. When all miners were on USA the waves of rejects were
always in sync.

According to this big miner: https://www.nicehash.com/?p=miners&addr=1FPJJjSsfod5q3Upixje2Zn8SSUzN781aW
Everything is working fine. This miner got only tiny little rejects once (stale reason). If there was a pool issue, then every miner would be affected not only you.

You still didn't tell us where are you located? It may be, that there are issues with networking from our stratums to you.

Ontario Canada.

I haven't seen any other complaints so it may be geographically related but I don't understand how it would only
affect cryptonight, other algos never see rejects.

Could diff be a contributor? At Nicehash diif starts at 10000 and usually dops to 5000 but never lower. At another
cryptonight pool diff start at 2400 and sometimes drops further from there. I tried setting a lower diff (-p d=2000)
but the pool still reported 5000 and I still get rejects.

Currently you'd have to use a dirty hack and edit the host file:

C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts

and enter:

Code:
46.105.114.185 equihash.eu.nicehash.com


This will redirect the traffic to suprnova - you have to remove that to reconnect to nicehash proxy again.

As soon as I have some time on the weekend i'll add an option to the miner

If you use the wrong type of mining type it will happen.  Here is what I use for my mining.

nheqminer_zcash -l usa -u ADDRESS -t 4 -od 0 1 2

-od 0 1 2  (AMD GPU mining I have 3 cards 8GB RX 480, 4GB R9 380x, 3GB R9 280x)

If you are mining with Nvidia GPU than you need to use -cd

I am not sure where you are getting -p x as Nicehash is anonymous mining and does not use a password. I believe that is why you are getting that error.

I've been mining zCash with this miner the whole night with 50+ sol/s but can't even find my worker address here:

http://zcash.nicehash.com/workers

What in the world is making it happen? I thought I'd have got my first 0.01 ZEC by now, but no, absolutely nothing.

I've now stopped mining with it.

My overall balance is a fraction of what it should be based on another pool I was mining on at the same time with the slower miner.

To save you all from being cheated stay away from Nicehash.

I am now only at around half an hour mining on Supranova and I have .0002 unconfirmed!  This just proves to me that Nicehash is cheating somehow with rewards.  How could I only been at .0028 with Nicehash after 24 hours mining?

So he keeps payout extremely high at .01 and than plays around with the rewards you earned so you will never get it.  What a scammer.

Well I have a big 1/h desktop cpu rig with Linux...but have not been able to get the cpu file from nicehash....I guess everyone and his brother is trying to mine there 21c a day like me lol :)

Anyway tried github.....errors out

tried nicehash site page window/linux ..errors out

etc

So hell looks like everyone and his brother is trying log in and get his version and I am just s*it out of luck :(

Any other way to get this latest 'baby' CPU miner to nicehash on ubuntu? currently no luck

I'm in Minnesota by the way...this supposedly should' work for us in this area of the usa.

later


edit:

Damn hard to get the CPU file to run it on ubuntu IF the site is being pounded....grrrr............both nicehash site for the download and the git hub site both are not responding the last 1/2 day

anyone got another way to get this puny CPU miner to mine into nicehash? (Started out to play with this now it is a Quest..in that I threw the old desktop together) again ....grrrrr...

Are you mining on ZEC pool with BTC address? If yes, this is of course wrong. You must mine with a ZEC t-address on the Zcash pool (http://zcash.nicehash.com/). You should use BTC address only if you are selling your hashing power on nicehash.com service (https://www.nicehash.com/?p=gstarted#seller).

I may have screwed up by not adding this into my batch
Quote
stratum+tcp://equihash.usa.nicehash.com:3357

Ok so just putting that in will make it work. According to the githb page for the miner it says to use the nheqminer.exe binary to sell my hash power for BTC which is the one I am using, with the BTC address as my username

Thing is on the github page for the miner it also says this as an example in regards to selling hash power with nicehash "nheqminer.exe -1 usa -u BTC-ADDRESS -t 6 -cd 0"

Maybe the problem me and others are having has to do with the Gitgub download page making it look like the set up works one way when it is not

edit:
The GUI showed me holding a 6 dollar balance, I think the reason I saw nothing is because I was searching for the wallet on the Zex.nicehash page. Well I can rest assured knowing where my hashes went now. Thank you

I actually have a suggestion although it may be nheqminer related rather than NiceHash

I've occasionally checked on my computer to see it only CPU mining. It would be interesting if the NiceHash program could recognize the hash rate as being low and do an auto switch back as a way reset the mining and get both the CPU and GPU active again, until nheqminer gets a function to auto reset. I think Claymore does that

If this could be added, a checkbox option would be good for that. If the GPU runs offline for any reason just restarting the miner does not include my fan settings from the OC software which could result in a heat problem while away. Zcash is weird in this way. It reports a much higher core clock speed than it should be in regards to the power consumption. I can avoid the GPU stopping by reducing my usual overclock offset in compensation to the unusually elevated clock rates

my $.02...

What you are asking does not sound like something the miner should do. If the GPU thread fails it is likely a problem with the GPU
that requires either a driver reset or system reboot. The best that can be hoped for is the miner detects the failure and reports it. It could also
exit, which would be more obvious, but would also miss out on CPU mining until fixed.

You could try running seperate instances for CPU and GPU with different worker names so you can easilly monitor them individually.

But the real fix is to set your clocks so the GPUs don't crash.

Reminder:

We have added SSL support for mining on NiceHash with Claymore Equihash Zcash miner (as you know, SSL lower's Claymore miner's fee from 2.5% to 2.0%).

You have to use stratum+ssl:// for stratum connection and use port 33357. Please see the examples below:

Mining with Claymore Equihash Zcash miner on EU location
Code:
ZecMiner64.exe -zpool stratum+ssl://equihash.eu.nicehash.com:33357 -zwal [YOUR-BTC-ADDR].[YOUR-WORKER-NAME] -zpsw -x

Mining with Claymore Equihash Zcash miner on USA location
Code:
ZecMiner64.exe -zpool stratum+ssl://equihash.usa.nicehash.com:33357 -zwal [YOUR-BTC-ADDR].[YOUR-WORKER-NAME] -zpsw -x

Mining with Claymore Equihash Zcash miner on ASIA Hong Kong location
Code:
ZecMiner64.exe -zpool stratum+ssl://equihash.hk.nicehash.com:33357 -zwal [YOUR-BTC-ADDR].[YOUR-WORKER-NAME] -zpsw -x

Mining with Claymore Equihash Zcash miner on ASIA Japan location
Code:
ZecMiner64.exe -zpool stratum+ssl://equihash.jp.nicehash.com:33357 -zwal [YOUR-BTC-ADDR].[YOUR-WORKER-NAME] -zpsw -x

Please note that this only applies if you are using Claymore Equihash Zcash miner version 9.2. Besides lower Claymore miner's fee there are no other benefits and if you're not using Claymore miner you can mine Equihash algorithm just as you've been used before.

Best regards,
NiceHash team.

with my stratum checker now available on my manager i was able to observe that many stratum servers are not responding from time to time for longer than 10 sec when initially connecting, which results in a timeout on my checker:

https://i.imgur.com/ld0qt0b.png

i have compared that to the output of some claymore eth miner running at that time where it reported "timeout", it continued to work flawlessly.

i have verified not a single response is sent on the first 10 sec, so my guess here is that existing connections work fine, but new ones are getting blocked/rejected/dropped or something

from time to time there really is a problem so the checker works as expected as the miner itself also fails to connect, but these cases seem rare (besides lbry eu stratum which is kinda buggy)

maybe you guys know why this is happening?

If your app is periodically establishing connection, but then instead of actually mining on them, just terminating them, then you get yourself periodically banned for doing this.

We have strict anti-DDOS rules and such behaviour qualifies as an attack.

well this is unfortunate, how to check the stratum availability without triggering those bans?

unfortunately most miner developers dont want to implement failover (except sgminer, but only conf files afaik)

well, sometimes they are not, i noticed this on my asics as they support failover pools and some hash is getting to the backup pool on a daily basis, probably just some minutes, but still

currently the stratum availability is verified by sending mining.subscribe and mining.authorize with the configured btc addr and pass to check if the stratum responds as intended

any failure before or during this test will mark the stratum as unavailable, this could be a simple invalid btc addr, a dns issue on the host, offline stratum servers or high latency network issues

sometimes when the frontend is down for maintenance the stratum is too (rare, but it happens), in such cases the miner should switch to backup pool and to nicehash back after its working again

yiimp and mph are both working great, they dont seem to implement such a banning solution

edit: it would be great if you could reduce the ddos "connections per second" definition to sane values, i approximate about 12-15 connection establishments per minute from two ips from my home, a ddos would likely be 15 connection attempts per second or more?

i could also increase the checking interval from 1 to 2 minutes, doubling the timespan and thus halving the connection attempts per timeframe

edit2: i dont know exactly how sgminer does it, but if i setup nicehash as a backup pool the addr will also be banned just by sgminer verifiying the backup pool from time to time i suppose

if sgminer does it by having a single connection open all the time (and thus not opening/closing new connections) i could implement that as well, but unfortunately i dont have that kind of a deep understanding of the stratum protocol (keepalive packets?)

Got a question for zpool as so far I am not getting any answers or support at mining hub so looking at moving on.

I got a Baikal Miner Giant+ and I want to know a few things. 

Is it possible while multi mining to estimate or calculate what I am actually making in a 24 hour period? With Mining Pool Hub it's balance page is not easily understood so I can not even figure out what I am making daily with it.

For example.. credit     credited for exchange   on exchange   

with no explanation of what each of these are.

So I am looking for a pool much easier to follow so I know Baikal works with Zpool to.  I am looking for a nice easy UI that makes it clear how much profit I am actually making.

Gentlemen, when I have both CPU and GPU checked in NiceHash Legacy 1.8.1.5 it shows I am only making about $0.12/day. Both the CPU and GPU are listed. When I unselect the CPU and keep only the GPU checked this goes up about $3/day. I thought having both the CPU and GPU mining would result in higher earnings, not less.

I am brand new to mining. Am I doing something wrong? I ran all benchmarks I thought the CPU can still mine even tho it's not as effective as the GPU.

Thank you.

Hi everyone, I hope it's okay to re-up an old thread? I wasn't sure my question warranted its own topic :D

I'm running my own mining pool and I'm trying to mine a coin with sha256d as its algo. I've set the pool difficulty for sha256 in the coin/algo configuration files in my pool to 500000 (the minimum required by NiceHash for sha256 - https://www.nicehash.com/pool-operators (https://www.nicehash.com/pool-operators)). I can get solo miners to connect and mine blocks and they parse the difficulty as being 500000 - https://imgbox.com/E2fIYofp. However, NiceHash pool verificator returns the "pool difficulty too low (provided=16, minimum=500000)" error (https://imgbox.com/uWopLwOz (https://imgbox.com/uWopLwOz)) and miners from NiceHash orders fail to connect to the pool. What could the issue be and how do I fix this?

Thanks in advance! :)

Sincerely,
newlymintedcryptolover

EDIT 14/03/2022: I've managed to solve this - turns out, all I needed to do was add the line nicehash = 750000 to the stratum part of the algo configuration file. Here's what the configuration file looks like now: https://imgbox.com/6WmPHK9U . It took me almost a week to solve this! It'd be great to have more documentation for issues like this.
