NiceHash hacked?

[MiningDoc]

Moreover you all need to consider the small miner payout schedule of around 1 week... Something goes wrong you loose whatever you have mined during 1 week in the worst case. I have changed to an Electroneum pool where I get paid to my wallet every hour. Unless Nicehash changes something about that I will definitely not be going back. How do ya all see that? I lost about 90 USD due to this security breach....

Most mining pools that I know have minimum payouts of like $200-300, to reach that I need way longer than a week.

The pool I'm mining XMR on is paying out at 0.3.  My 6 gpu rig is doing over 0.1 per day, so I'm getting paid out roughly every three days.

Damn, what cards are you mining with?  I'm mining on supportXMR pool as well with 2 RX570's and I'm definitely not getting 0.033 XMR per day (1/3 of your 6 GPU's).  Yours must be hashing a lot faster than mine   It's going to take me about 22-25 days to reach the 0.3 XMR Payout.

RX Vega 56's ... Over 1900 h/s per card ... Not to be confused with RX560's.

Haven't that nicehash stored the miners wallet and fund unto the Cold storage wallet and not a hot wallet? this is what they are claiming on their site when you signup and use the nicehash wallet right? what happen now?

Interesting find, what have Nicehash got to say about that?
Obviously a blatant lie.

Reply from nicehash: Oops, sorry? We promise to do better next time, you can count on that, Cross our hart!

Will never go back to those incompetent scammers again.

They rescheduled my payments and then "sorry, your btc was stolen".

It was their responsibility to store btc in secure place, away from hackers. 100% they stole it.

After the tragic incident... and the positive announcements following the recently bad news, it is very disappointing that NiceHash turn into a scam now.
They're properly working before, right now they are held to be responsible and make it up to the ones who've lost. What now?

try it, works good to me, the are paying in BTC
lite and full mode
start on windows startup
easy setup
very fast benchmark

There are tons of these mate.
Even ones like MinerGate which have been around for a long time - I would be *VERY* cautious going to these sites as you download their software and literally give them access to mine on your machine, with no guarantees they are going to give you the hashes you have. For all we know they are only paying pennies per hash in comparison.

Dont trust everything you read on these things. They all want to fill the vacuum left by NiceHash.
MiningRigRentals is about the only place I trust.

Well said. I tested several of these some time ago and as you said - you are getting lower H/s. You are "paying" for the convenience of "fire and forget" which ..... is also ok

I'd be interested if someone in the know did a round up of all the alternatives and obviously you are catering to people busy with other stuff so that kind of summary is ideal :p   I'm sure any sum up would get views, I post on a few forums slightly aligned to tech etc.    I just wanted to know if kryptex did cpu mining as well because I have an 8 core with 20mb cache and it used to do really well with zero lag so seems a waste not to have it tied to a screensaver type setup when otherwise idle.   They do but which of these is best at capturing the best rate, obviously solo mining on a fast coin can be best but also requires more management, maybe more market risk and hassle.

I learned that Nicehash was attacked not long ago and that he is trying to restore it. There are a lot of investors falling into debt when Nicehash is attacked. I was a bit puzzled when I heard that.

Investors in NH that are falling into debt?  People who have invested their own money in mining rigs that don't care to learn how to mine singles?  What the hell do you mean? 

If NH raised money to start their company, their investors accepted the risk of investing in NiceHash.  So that's a who the fuck cares right there.

Certainly is way more hassle.  But once you're in the game, you'll never go back to one click shit mining (selling hash power) not knowing where every dollar is going.

Just noticed the movement of some BTC out to various addreses from https://bitinfocharts.com/bitcoin/address/1EnJHhq8Jq8vDuZA5ahVh6H4t6jh1mB4rq

Now 3.000 BTC left. I'm curious how they will try to wash stolen coins.

Seems to be moving coins around probably to water down a little

Will the stolen coins be returned? How likely will it be?

Probably a 1% chance.

Their website states ... The exact date of reimbursement for old balances will be announced by January 31, 2018.
