Be careful with Nicehash.

The company was founded by a criminal:
https://coingeek.com/nicehash-co-founder-arrested-yet-again/
https://www.justice.gov/doj/case/united-states-v-matjaz-skorjanc-florencio-carro-ruiz-mentor-leniqi-and-thomas-kennedy

He served over 4 years in prison, convicted of computer fraud.

And in 2017, they stole from their own Nicehash customers:

Yes, under "Sub-account Management", where the newly created "Mining Accounts" are displayed, I have added my "Withdrawal Address".
But when I go back to "Earnings", this address is not displayed under "Wallet" (where it should be?).
On the "Earnings" page, there is a link with the message "Your earnings will be paid out in the next payment cycle after your wallet has been configured. <link>Configure wallet address</link>".
This link takes me back to "Sub-account Management" where I have already entered my valid "Withdrawal Address" and even if I change this address, it never appears under "Wallet" in "Earnings".

So they have created the ultimate frustration loop. (Maybe that's where their name comes from!?)

BTW, I noticed on the home page (for 3 days in a row now) that the calculated estimated earnings for 1 TH/s is almost exactly twice as high as on any other pool.
If I calculate my real earnings on this pool it is half of the value promoted on there home page...
So I wonder if this pool is just badly programmed or if it is some kind of scam?

As this is almost the only information about ultimuspool (besides the cooperation with binance), maybe my last question is answered:

Thank you for looking into this.

Regarding your first question: I was able to add an address to the payment settings in the sub-account management. But under earnings this address does not show up as a wallet/address.
And when I look at the ultimuspool tutorial (https://www.ultimuspool.com/en/tutorial), this is exactly where the tutorial ends...

Regarding your second question: No, I haven't reached the limit yet, it was just a test run. But if it starts like this, I won't be using this pool any more. Can you perhaps tell me where you found the information about the minimum payout amount. I have not been able to find it. Thank you!

Hi folks,

Has anyone here used Ultimuspool (ultimuspool.com).
I have been mining there for a few days and can see my earnings.
But it is not possible to set my payout address for my earnings.
There is a link “Config wallet address” and there I can set my wallet address.
But this address never appears in the “Earnings” section under “Wallet”.
And so my earnings are not paid out.

Has anyone used Utlimuspool successfully before, and if so, how?

Thank you very much for your help!

Ok, so I will just ignore the rejected ones.
Thank you for the information!

If I check the Best Share on solo.ckpool.org, everything seems normal.

Hi all,

I have pointed my miner to solo.ckpool.org respectively de.ckpool.org.

But as you can see in the screenhot the rejected value is extreme high:


If I point my miner to viaBTC (also in solo mode) the rejected value is zero:


Is this normal on ckpool.org or is there something I can do about it?

Thank you in advance!
