My miner can't connect to stratum+tcp://stratum.solo.nicehash.com:3336 for Dash mining, but perfectly works with multialgo at westhash. Anybody else have connection problem with Dash solo mining?
If you're using sgminer try disabling extranonce ... it hasn't yet been implemented in solo pool mining software: if you're using config file: { "url" : "stratum+tcp://stratum.solo.nicehash.com:3336", "no-extranonce" : true, "user" : "dashAddress", "pass" : "x", }
if you're using command line options: sgminer --algorithm darkcoin-mod --no-extranonce -o stratum+tcp://stratum.solo.nicehash.com:3336 -u ... -p ...

Congrats. Now would you be so kind as to address some of the questions raised by Phil, auelf57 and myself?
Sure, we're already working on address validator for all three coins (we have to modify code at a few places) so that invalid addresses will be rejected at authorization. Thanks for the feedback!

NiceHash multi-algorithm solo mining pool & blockchain lottery. Cross your fingers to get a full 25 Bitcoin, 50 Litecoin or dynamic Dash block reward! - NiceHash solo mining & blockchain lottery is an advanced multi-algorithm stratum based solo mining pool for Bitcoin, Litecoin and Dash. You can use it as a regular solo mining pool by connecting your miners to our solo mining stratum servers. Moreover you can also rent hashing power on NiceHash/WestHash and point it to our solo mining stratum servers and play some blockchain lottery.
- If you find a block, 99.5% of the block reward + transaction fees get generated directly at your address. Therefore there is no login, no need to worry about passwords, withdrawals, authentication or pool wallet hacks. No funds are kept by pool but are rather directly generated to your address.
Connect your miners or rented hashing power from NiceHash/ WestHash to: stratum+tcp://stratum.solo.nicehash.com:3334 for Bitcoinstratum+tcp://stratum.solo.nicehash.com:3333 for Litecoinstratum+tcp://stratum.solo.nicehash.com:3336 for DashYou should use you Bitcoin/Litecoin/Dash address as worker username and any password. You can add worker name by adding ".workername" at the tail of your Bitcoin/Litecoin/Dash address; example: stratum+tcp://stratum.solo.nicehash.com:3334 -u yourAddress.Worker1 -p x If you enter an invalid address it will be ignored and earnings will be donated to the pool. Make sure you use valid/existing address! The pool fee is 0.5%. If you find a block, 99.5% of the block reward + transaction fee rewards get generated directly at your address. The main stratum pool code is based on ckpool, therefor 10% of our fee for Bitcoin mining is directly donated to Con Kolivas BTC address 148KkS2vgVi4VzUi4JcKzM2PMaMVPi3nnq as contribution for his work on stratum pool core development.

NiceHash celebrates it's 1st birthday!Exactly 1 year ago we launched NiceHash service, the most advanced crypto currency cloud mining, hash rental service and multipool. NiceHash quickly became the most popular hash rental service and is now serving tens of thousands happy customers. Through the evolution of our service we introduced and pioneered several innovative and unique concepts, including but not limited to: - renting hashing power on-demand instead of renting rigs
- selling hashing power as simple as using multipool
- multi-algorithm mining
- bidding and fixed type of orders with automatic bot support
We hope you enjoy using our service as much as we enjoy running it. Of course we would like to thank you all for staying with us and for the feedback left through bitcointalk forum, emails and twitter. We'll keep improving the service and make sure it will serve all your needs and expectations. At this point we would like to make two announcements: 1. We're developing innovative live hashing power marketplace which will allow you to place orders instantly with a single click while having full overview of both NiceHash and WestHash markets on a single web page. Stay tuned! 2. To celebrate NiceHash's 1st birthday we've just launched another innovative add-on service: multi-algorithm solo mining. Interested in solo mining & playing some blockchain lottery by mining for a full 25 Bitcoin/50 Litecoin/dynamic Dash block reward? Check out solo.nicehash.com. Once again, thank you all and keep on hashing!

nope its not working.. the pool shows alive now, but still a red X on the worker.. oh well.
S3 has to be manually updated for xnsub support: download it here and see README: https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=software#asicAnd it is stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:PORT_NUM#xnsub for cgminer (no / slash after port num) and stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:PORT_NUM/#xnsub for bfgminer (yes, / slash after port num)

It's exactly what I'm using. It "talks" extranonce with the stratum server normally, but to solve the hashrate problems I had to remove '#xnsub' in the S5 pool configuration that targets the proxy. OK, that's fine since you only have to use #xnsub when directly connecting to our stratums. However the proxy should not disconnect the miner on each extranonce/pool change - this is what [enableExtranonceSubscribe" : true] setting is for in the proxy configuration ... you should report this bug in the proxy thread ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=611338.0).

DRAGON MINER is using cgminer and the controller is embedded raspberry-pie. We don't have any newer cgminer with extranonce.subscribe for this particular device, but you could contact the manufacturer (or distributors) of DRAGON MINER to make new cgminer binary with extranonce.subscribe patch ( https://github.com/nicehash/cgminer-ckolivas/commit/4e9c7ce68ed91ec9189d83c35b2237aca65f2b7f), then you can upload new cgminer via SSH to embedded raspberry-pie controller ... maybe you could also ask some programmers (bitcointalk user smit1237) if they can provide such newer cgminer binary for this miner.

I think I've solved it! My S5 was connected to a local stratum proxy with #xnsub in the URL. I simply removed it and things got MUCH better instantly. Now the stratum proxy disconnects the S5 on each extranonce/pool change, but the hash rate is as it should be. If you're using stratum proxy you should consider using newer stratum proxy with extranonce support, see "Stratum-Proxy guide" here: https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=asic

Is this modded firmware based on the Oct. 16th or Jan. 29th release from bitmain?
Jan. 29th Also, is there a version available with the fan speeds lowered?
Not sure, you should ask smit1237.

if I sha256 mine i have no issue . Am I setting something wrong ? . please let me know.
Minimum pool difficulty for sha256 and scrypt is 127 ... please contact pool operator and let him know that he should configure pool for starting pool difficulty at >= 127 ... lower pool difficulties results in very inefficient mining with today's fast scrypt miners (Titans, etc.).

WestHash is now back on-line, sorry the downtime but we had to resolve issues on our provider's infrastructure and also apply a few updates. Graphs (stats) are broken for the duration of WestHash downtime.
