minter12345 what exactly are you using now for your password/params?

Are you using the default diff of 512?  Or a "d=256"?

I know you say to ignore the discards, but on the NiceHash status page for my address, I'm seeing a "Round accepted speed GH/s" of 66GH/sec!  Not even close to normal ... ??

Yeah I'm using the default of 512 and it will balance out over a long period due to variance.

As of right now the latest shift was 3 hours ago.  I have 10.64% rejected rate for the shift.  Which is still high but much much better than 60% from before.

Thank you nicehashdev for looking into this.

Does anyone else have problems connecting to NiceHash?

Only connections to nice hash are not working.

I cannot connect from 2 locations, but a 3rd location works fine.

Everything is exactly the same besides the house...

Could the ISP (Comcast) the issue then?

All 3 locations use Comcast and are in the same city...

We have very strict anti-DDOS rules, because the attack is still on-going for like 1 week now already, but it is not so strong anymore and is mostly filtered out. If you use NiceHash as backup pool, that might be an issue - our system will detect you as "fake" miner and block any further connections. When you connect your miner, make sure you send few accepted shares, that way your IP will get whitelisted.

[phreakk]

I put NiceHash as the only pool, and eventually it quits saying that it cannot resolve host. How do I send accepted shares when I can't connect at all?
(never have hashed with you guys before!)

what are you using what mining software and OS. I have been using linux with cgminer and no problems less than 1% hashrate. (see the red from the graph)

It cannot resolve the host? Make sure you entered correct host then. stratum.nicehash.com points to 91.223.115.35. If domain resolution doesn't work for you, you may use IP directly.

Its the Antminer S1.  And yes I would love to be hitting less than 1% reject rate but alas something in the way they deal with stuff (ntime?) isn't the right way.  Nicehashdev seems to know more whats going on.

so this was tweeted recently   

NiceHash @NiceHashMining  ·  2h
X11 coming tomorrow, most likely.

bring it!

[Humancell]

Thank you nicehashdev for looking into this.

Yes ... this is starting to work really well!

[Humancell]

I noticed that the website seems to really be lagging today?

The stats pages seems to be taking much longer than normal to render?

[healthandwealth]

I've read all the faqs, etc. but was wondering:  can I just mine for myself personally from NiceHash like I would from Wafflepool?

[vagabondo]

My balance is >0.002 from two days, but I have not recived a payout ... can you take a look at this ?

Another misunderstanding it would seem. You 'mine' at nicehash exactly as you would at wafflepool, with absolutely no additional involvement from your end as to where your hashing goes. You can join and disconnect at will, which is why it makes for such a great failover pool.

It is a 'hash rental' service, not a rig rental service.

What's the no-extranonce-subscribe command line? I'm not using a config file here. Thanks!

1) What happend if ther is no any order for hashrate? As I've understood mining will over then and if I have not any failover pool I'll not mine anything then - yes?
2) Prices now are good, but if they will be for example double less - mining will continue if there is no other orders with bigger price - yes? So theoretically we can mine for penny while somebody has huge profit?

I have yet to see, outside of a completely downed system due to DDOS, any instance where there was no orders for hashing and there must be a fall-back pool that nicehash uses for the excess hash in order to ensure that *everybody* gets paid the same rate for their hash. You should always have failover pools though.

2) Prices now are good, but if they will be for example double less - mining will continue if there is no other orders with bigger price - yes? So theoretically we can mine for penny while somebody has huge profit?

Understand this, sure, you could probably track down where the fast money is currently at, if you sat at your monitor 24 hours a day constantly checking *every* new coin announcement, every sudden upswing in profitability from a particular coin or pool, etc. If that's how you want to mine then go for it. Some people can make a quick buck that way, most find the dump opportunity is gone before they get their profit.

Nicehash is all about taking the effort out of mining as far as my experience with it so far has been.

If the price per megahash goes below what you would be happy with then simply set the 'p=[x.xx]' parameter in the pool password at whatever x.xx price per gigahash you'd accept as the lowest rental rate. TBH, so far I've not seen many places where you'd get a better price, outside of direct rig rental services, which have their own headache-inducing customer service issues.

[suchmoon]

So theoretically we can mine for penny while somebody has huge profit?

Simple market logic says that somebody will put an order in at 90% of wafflepool or LTC or Doge profitability, so I doubt that you will ever mine at a significant loss. And you can set your own price threshold too - read the FAQ.

[nicehashdev]

Get ready for X11. As soon as FW rules are updated, you can start mining X11 on NiceHash. Meanwhile, buyers can already place X11 orders. Buyers don't forget that minimal pool difficulty is 0.002. If you try on pool that has lower pool difficulty, order will appear dead.

[jimlite]

I am also trying to sell X11 hash, and I have my miner at your site and it is not getting work.

sgminer.exe -k darkcoin -o stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:3336 -u 14tawohEigvWdHrrEDbFa6UagBexYzHmBd -p x -I 15 -g 2 -w 256




So I can not rent hash or deliver it.

Please advise on my config to deliver X11 hash, and credit my account for two orders that need cancellation fee refunded to

[nicehashdev]

As I said, get ready. FW rules aren't updated yet, so you can't mine yet. ETA is 1 hour.
