Nicehashdev, you obviously have some errors in your sph-sgminer. It shows 0.000/-0.000 difficulty on all my X11 rigs, with any difficulty setting (manual and auto), and even on other pools! But if I switch to standard sph-sgminer 4.1.0, it works ok.
Indeed there is a bug for displaying diff. We'll take a look and released a patched version soon.

Would be nice if you combined Scrypt/Scrypt-N/SHA256/X11 rewards before payout They are combined together. You just don't see that on graph. I had this exact same suggestion a while back -- remember aggregated payout that I mentioned? The key thing here is that the payout mechanism should check the sum payout total of all the algorithms and check whether that meets the threshold of 0.002btc instead of checking each one individually. For example, say I have pending balance of the following for each of these algor: scrypt 0.0017, scrypt-n 0.00006865, x11 0.00046600. Even though scrypt-n is below the 0.002 threshold, that will still get payed out on the next payout because the sum total of all three is 0.00223465btc. I don't believe the current system is doing that is it? Payments are issued four times a day if your unpaid balance is greater than 0.01 BTC. Every fourth payment (once per day) is issued if balance is greater than 0.002 BTC. We will do payments for balances greater than 0.0001 BTC once every few days. Payment threshold is checked for each algorithm even if you use the same BTC address for different algorithms. Each algorithm balance must correspond to the criteria above to be included in the payment. All balances for the same BTC address, matching the criteria above, will be combined into single payment. Example: User under BTC adress "xxx" has such balances: a) Scrypt: 0.11 b) Scrypt-Adaptive-Nfactor: 0.04 c) X11: 0.0001 At the next payment round, total balance will be 0.11 + 0.04 = 0.15 BTC since a) and b) matches the criteria, however c) doesn't. User will receive 0.15 BTC in a single transaction. The X11 balance from c) will be paid in one of the next rounds, when it reaches the criteria above. Note: We will implement a combined summarized threshold checking in the future upgrades to allow aggregated payout. It's in our TODO list we just haven't got time to implement it yet - it is not a trivial task since we have to do QA testing to make sure payments are 100% correct and exact.

GAW. Not sure exaclty what SW they use(That is why I have them hosted ) But I do know GAW announced last week they now support NiceHash.. True, GAW hosted miners should work flawlessly with NiceHash. One thing is for sure d=2048 is too high for GridSeeds, especially for the small 1st gen GridSeeds ... try to use d=512. Also, can you please ask GAW where exactly are those miners hosted (which part of the world, eu, usa, china?). Please, report this also to GAW, maybe they have to check if your miner really has the latest software installed.

Bummer. There are still some strange issues going on with my AntMiner S1s working against the pool with "price" thresholds.
I just came home and found my two test AntMiner S1s hung ... they *said* the NiceHash pool was alive ... but they were NOT mining it ... and they were NOT mining my backup pools.
Both were mining earlier in the day, and then when the 0.06 contracts expired, they fell back to the backup pools. That is where they were when I left the house. I come home and realized they were in some strange state ... not mining NiceHash nor the backup pools.
I had to restart the miners, and then they immediately jumped back to the backup pools as there are no 0.06 contracts.
Something is broken ...
ckolivas informed me, that idlebug is fixed in latest cgminer. Do you use latest cgminer? I have verified with kano that I am running cgminer v4.3.2a commit 85fcf0c ... what version is ckolivas saying this is fixed in? I want to get my Ant farm over on NiceHash ... but with this bug it keeps leaving my Ants not mining anything! :-( This is the commit: https://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer/commit/3b387ca67f226edccb3cf13cc827d7b57b2282aahttps://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer/pull/581Not sure which build version includes this commit, please ask ckolivas or kano.

All my miners are hosted and all my miners are Gridspeeds.
You mean GridSeeds? Where are you hosting them? Which software (and version) are you (or your hosting provider) using?

Has this problem been fixed?
--- when nicehash falls below my set price in the password.
sgminer doesnt go to next pool, it stays stuck in waiting for nicehash and seems to still be submitting shares, therefore never failing over.
Yes. https://nicehash.com/software/For X11 also? I still see "waiting for work.." message with the downloaded nicehash sgminer if I set the price threshold. Yes, it has been fixed for X11 too -> https://www.nicehash.com/software/#sph-miner ... are you 100% sure you're using a downloaded version from this site? Are you using windows or linux version? Please double check this and if the problem still persist please send me your pool config.

This might only be a display problem with rounding the numbers. Can you check, if you can find string "0.000" in your sph-miner logs? If you're not using logs, please start sph-miner with logging: "sgminer ...your-parameters... 2>>sph-miner.log" And then monitor your log ... if you'll find string "0.000" in the logs please send the logs to nicehashdev.

Nicehash,
How your system selects who mine expensive contracts and who mine cheap?? I was mining for a 24 hours, and during this period price were different, but never the top one... currently there are SIX orders with price>2 but my miner stopped because I have p=2.0 set up.
??
Take a look at https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=faq#faqg0quote: "Hashing power sellers are paid at the current weighted average price. Current price is displayed on the NiceHash.com front page."

cudaMiner and ccMiner developers: Not sure if you've heard about us - NiceHash.com is a novel crypto currency cloud mining service. It runs as a proxy between hashing power providers/sellers and hashing power buyers ( https://nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=faq#faqg0). NiceHash is using some advanced stratum protocol features. We are getting some user's requests to improve NiceHash.com compatibility with cudaMiner and ccMiner. Here you can find guidelines on how to patch your mining software to get better compatibility with NiceHash: https://www.nicehash.com/software/#devsThese are relatively simple and small patches, no hard work is needed to implement. btw: it would be also great for you to implement a good support for backup/failover pools in cudaMiner / ccMiner

Providers/SellersGood news! We've released patched and optimized versions of sph-miner for X11. You can download it here: https://www.nicehash.com/software/#sph-minerWe are aware that some mining software doesn't yet support some advanced features utilized by NiceHash, therefor we've written guidelines for mining software developers: https://www.nicehash.com/software/#devsPlease, miners, step together and ask your mining software provider (if you're using software, that hasn't yet been patched) to incorporate these patches into their software. These are really simple and small patches, no hard work is needed to implement. Thanks for using NiceHash and we all wish you nice hashing!

We've added X11 algorithm. There are already some orders in place so you can start earning money with your X11 rigs asap, just point your miner to stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:3336. The widely used sph-miner is supported. We will also provide you with optimized patched sph-miner for idlebug fix and extranonce patch. Stay tuned.

Can you change the payouts to daily bases? i got lots of ~0.002 incoming transactions, and when i want to spend it, i have to pay a big tx fee.
Indeed, in this case your tx fees might be significant. We'll change the payment schedule. Payments will still be issued four times per day, but you'll be paid at each payment round only if your unpaid balance is greater than 0.01 BTC. Last payment round of the day will be special and at this round you'll be paid if your unpaid balance is greater than 0.002 BTC.

when will my hosted miners with gawminers be able to work at nicehash? since they use cgminer
Good news. GAW miners software engineering team notified us that they have updated their cgminer software with our patches. GAW miners hosted miners should now work fine with NiceHash. Please try to connect your miners to NiceHash and let us know if all is fine now.
