Hi guys, I have been trying to get my ETH miner working for a while now- So I was trying to follow nicehash's guide on the setup, but here's what's got me: Connection settings for ethminer using NVIDIA GPUs ethminer.exe -U -F http://ethereum.LOCATION.nicehash.com:3500/n1c3-YOUR-BITCOIN-ADDRESS.WORKER-NAME/WORKER-SPEEDI have ethminer and I have done a benchmark to get my speed Found suitable CUDA device [GeForce GTX 770M] with 3221225472 bytes of GPU memor y Benchmarking on platform: CUDA Preparing DAG for block #0 i 11:45:36|cudaminer0 workLoop 0W a#r0m0i0n0g0 0u0p0.Ô.Ç.ª #00000000ÔǪ i 11:45:36|cudaminer0 Initialising miner... Using device: GeForce GTX 770M (Compute 3.0) Trial 1... 6990506 Trial 2... 7689557 Trial 3... 6990506 Trial 4... 7686995 Trial 5... 6990506 min/mean/max: 6990506/7269614/7689557 H/s inner mean: 5125517 H/s However in the example for nicehash the speed is just 19, is that converted into megahashes? So what would that make my startup line to be? Thanks

It seems the rig rental price in Nicehash is quite low. It is better to mine directly and do not rent out there.

i dont think their eth mining is rentals.. i think they are acting as a pool and paying out bitcoin.

Yeah it's all true, and they do get that hash rate because a lot of miners are to lazy to go and sell their eth themselves.
It's easy, you mine and get payed in btc. That's why it's popular. And in a way that is understandable.

and the rate is not 60%. i typed in my hash on a calculator, mined NH for 24 hours and got almost the same amount of btc the calc said i should get.. they do charge a 2 or 3% fee.

Considering you are still using checks that might be the case. Withdrawal cost to EUR is flat 9 cents. Normally takes 4-12 hours.

When the block size prolbem is resolved, the price of bitcoin will resume the up trend. But we have to wait until May probably.
