NiceHash hacked?

[vianez]

Hello guys, nicehash is not using standard wallet for transaction so it’s normal if the balance is 0. If you notice there are not transaction even if you had it before.

The thing is big and even the two factor authentication is not safe because if someone hacked the server the two factor aurh can be bypassed.

Usually the keys and the password are not stored cleared so if someone hacked them has been really good on it or they keep clear all users data.

Everyone saying about having 0 on their wallet and checking it out on the block chain.. Doesn't really understand how their system works...

They will not literally deposit any money on the wallet they generate to you as it would have unnecessary network cost for them.. What they do is just add an entry on their database pointing that address X has Y balance... And when you ask for payout.. Then their internal address will send out the money and deduct from the database...

Só tracking your NH address on the blockchain won't work.. You might be able to see it through if you have made any deposit to it previously.. But you might never see that address sending funds directly to you.. Or you might even see that it has been zero out long time ago....

I wish I had .0001 BTC for every time a "hack" rumor circulated. Fun to watch all the guppies swim to and fro. Here's a hint. Don't leave money in ANY wallet. At least not any amounts that will be painful to lose.

LMAO!!! " Promise I won't tell anyone"!! WTF....good thing that developer stayed the company course. She would have lost her job due to that Judas!!

[RentGPU]

Why should anyone leave his money on a pool , ppl still don't understand cryptos , never trust third party ,if they don't run with your money someone will hack them and run with it , so it's a matter of time to be stolen , control your private keys control your own money....no banks in crypto

Yeah she should have said "Our PR team will send out an update soon regarding the outage"

Instead she said "handle the situation"

to me "handle the situation" implies something not good.

Payouts are scheduled in this case, at least to my knowledge.
A lot of Crypto mining is about trust and contributing to the network and pools, i guess.

[DarkoBlog]

Ohhh. If it is a hacker attack, I'm very sorry for people who will who will lose their coins.
A week ago I stopped to use their service and went to dig for myself and now I delighted with my decision.

No trust is needed in crypto , if ppl used it the rigth way , we would't see MT gox or nicehash or any other basterds stealing ppl hard earned money , just use it the right way.

That leaves out a lot of traders and users of bitcoins that need to exchange bitcoins for fiat at a regular basis (or vice versa). I'm not saying you're wrong - I'm saying a different solution needs to be found. This is why I am long on DEX alts. (All of them).

[storeship]

Pool payout is minimum 0.1 BTC that I transfer every few days to my main wallet, I don't keep money with Nicehash but I've lost possibly a payout due tomorrow, over £900
I just wish Nicehash would make a statement it's the not knowing that fuels rumours and attacks the companies reputation..

There are some solutions now for exchanging , like direct exchange from your wallet with local trader , ppl will have difficult time while learning how to control thier own money , it's a fact that most of us don't like to take that risk to control our own money.

So that's why the difficulty is down on everything.

Why don't nicehash miners just mine like everyone else 

[Mikanoshi]

Pool payout is minimum 0.1 BTC that I transfer every few days to my main wallet

You mine 0.1 BTC every few days and still using nicehash?

[sundownz]

My profits are off the charts today with NH down =P

Only cos it's easy and use several different miners and it pays out in BTC, suppose I'm just lazy
