Nicehash site is up...

[n00bsaibot]

where is more profit?
l3+ shows 17$ in 24 hours and other pools profit is 20-22

Done be just looking at "profits" since that is only IF they pay you     

While I do not really hold grudge against them here are my few issues:

- Their minimum payment policy is still ridiculous
- They will announce on Jan 31st when will they pay out outstanding (pre hack) balances - so you are not getting payed on Jan 31st
- No real details on investigation, mitigation process etc.

There are many questions to be answered here. Also you will mine now and basically make them money that they will pay back your outstanding dues ... their h/s rate is slightly higher than other pools but is that cause they want your business back???

We are all adults here and should be able to make our own decisions but keep in mind that whole crypto world revolves around trust and there were some serious issues recently (hint hint) .....

i'm confused now..
must i trust nicehash again?
they offer great profit, great return...
but they haven't paid the lost / hack money

should i return to nicehash again?
please advice

It's your call, but I personally have a hard time trusting a site that got hacked, hasn't revealed anything about the investigation, hasn't confirmed they will reimburse everyone, and now wants people to come back and help them earn more money again.

It's a sh!t situation, and I will have to see some stability and reliability before even considering my hash power with them.

they definitely back up. noticing huge difficulty spikes again. wonderful....

i hope you all get robbed a second time lol.

Do payouts have fixed or percentage fee?
Their website says "payouts from 0.001 BTC" which is atm like 11 USD. So if you keep payouting 50 USD your risk should be minimal with highest profitability?

Thus, what does "...from..." means? And how are payout fees calculated?

[Lancusters]

I am also glad that nicehash is back. The sum of the balances in my account is not active. It is written that specific information on refunds will be announced before January 31. But I don't really care. I never keep coins on an internal wallet. I'm more worried about the fact that the nicehash pools are working intermittently. The production is not stable. Periodically lost connection pools.

Im wait 31 to. Strange

[tradingcrypto]

I would rather mine for myself than go back to them 

[ikicha]

This is bad news for me
Im not mining at NiceHash, and Nice Hash will kill Hashrate and Difficulty for rent service 

Okay i hope NiceHash improove security and not down again

Good to see site is back, hope every thing goes well from now

where is more profit?
l3+ shows 17$ in 24 hours and other pools profit is 20-22

 Scrypt on Nicehash at this time is LOWER profit than mining Litecoin via a pool like LiteCoinPool.

 This is a reversal of the situation for 2-3 months before the hack, when Nicehash was paying out a LOT more for Scrypt hashrate than mining Litecoin directly, and usually more than mining any of the other Scypt altcoins.


 The ONLY stuff I have pointed at Nicehash at this point is the cryptonight CPUs and my single Vega - which I had not found a replacement home for anyway as far as Monero mining went, so if their income gets lost it's no real loss to me other than a few watts extra power usage (and somewhat fewer DNet RC5-72 blocks crunched).

 Very low risk (the extra electric usage), potential some gain, ONLY reason I'm using them at all for the next month and change.


 My "old mining income" tab thing IS showing what appears to be the "correct" amount, but I didn't watch my Nicehash balance every hour or such so it could be off a LITTLE.

thank you for respons my post. you are right, LTC price is down right now.
that's why calculator shows 17$

Since last night I have noticed that the NH Client software is reporting much higher numbers than the dashboard. In some cases this is 15-20 bucks / day...

I'm seeing this on 2 of my accounts with them.

Can someone please confirm that this is occurring on their side as well?

[Sledge0001]

Rigs show $58 and Dashboard shows $36

Is this how they are going to repay everyone??

[Sledge0001]

What's odd is the Statistic page does seem to be showing more accurate numbers. Hmm...

[shintosai]

How to received instruction email? I'm trying to log in but still not getting any luck to received email from NH , good to know that they are back online again hope everything went back to normal.

[uhro]

With the lack of information about what really happened regarding the hack, I don't know how anyone can trust these guys right now.

Also to clarify, they said they will let you know what they are doing with old balances by Jan 31st, not that you would be paid your old balance by then.

[akirasendo17]

yes the site is up but lots of people are now saying its not good to mine there they will loose lots of miners because they put a higher
withdrawal rate it will plunged for sure, but what can i say i mine der before ,
although its nice but currently its not the best site to mine or place,
maybe lets just focus on other mining sites

[steve666]

I hope NiceHash will crack down and crash again so i could get more profit from my rig... this service is a cancer for cryptocurrencies and mining.

[uhro]

https://ahashpool.com/ there is a download link to an easy to use algo switching script on the main page and they auto converts to BTC.

Basically the same thing nicehash is doing for you, you just have to do a little bit of setup in the batch file to set your wallet, how often you want to check for a more profitable algo, and what algos you want to cycle through.  This script can be used with other auto exchange pools as well like http://zpool.ca/ with little effort.

It's not mine, but I've been using it for a few weeks making good rates on my GPU rigs.

[modestminer]

I wonder what percentage of the people will go back to this after what happened.

I already did. You may say why ? Because one of my rigs with modified bios and 6 x RX 570 series is doing 4950 h/s on Monero/Cryptonight algorithm. Paying 26.5 USD daily I guess one of the highest for such configuration and Monero is my favorite algorithm because it consumes less energy.

Same cards on Winminer were doing 3600 h/s or 17 USD daily, that is 270 USD more monthly with Nicehash. I would be stupid to not go back. I think they will not be hacked anymore and store all the coins in cold storage now.

The only thing I disagree is the same min payout, I would love to see 0.005 btc as min withdraw.

anyone who thinks like this noob does, is one stupidly naïve person. they didn't change much of anything. payout amount is the same, id bet all the funds go into a hot wallet still just waiting to get hacked again. so think they will not get hacked again is a stupid thing to think

Calling me noob is something stupid, having built more than 100 boards for many friends and not friends, lately I have done a successful bios modification also of one of the most problematic card and with Hynix memory. Why am I stupid, I make 0.011 btc weekly so max I can lose is one week of mining. I made 76 USD with Winminer in one week, while I am making about 160 USD within a week with Nicehash.

It is called risk taking and not stupid thinking.

Ignore him, he's a douche nozzle. Not worth the effort.
