[ANN] NiceHash.com - sell & buy hash rate cloud mining service / multipool

[pflip]

FYI.

I had some issue to make the new NHM 1.5.1.0 to work on my setup (win7 r9280x) on mining the Ethereum.

The miner was not starting until I found that the parameters passed by the NHM were not accepted.

So, in order to make it work I had to manually remove the extra parameters in the setting .

Now I am hashing about 18-19 MH/s which is about 10% less than previous release

I am also getting quite a few rejects (stale) while I used to get none the previous implementation

[NiceHashSupport]

I can't get the nicehash/cpp-ethereum fork to compile on Ubuntu 14.04. Genoil/cpp-ethereum compiles just fine.

here's the error, any help please?

Hello,

BUYERS: If you would like to buy hashing power for Ethereum you can now already use Hitchpool as target pool on the order:

Stratum hostname: eu1.hitchpool.org:3334
Stratum port: 3334
Username: ETHEREUM-ADDRESS.WORKER-NAME (.WORKER-NAME is optional)
Password: x

Stratum hostname: us1.hitchpool.org:3334
Stratum port: 3334
Username: ETHEREUM-ADDRESS.WORKER-NAME (.WORKER-NAME is optional)
Password: x

SELLERS/PROVIDERS: Please keep in mind that you still have to use our special fork of Genoil's ethminer, however Genoil as well as Claymoure will soon be releasing support for NiceHash in their official miners.


Best regards,
NiceHash team.

just a few things..  seems to work great.  I do notice that the miner has some issues with reporting the hashrate.. it seems to fluctuate a lot.  and at the beginning it has a ramp up phase where it takes a while before it starts showing the actual hashrate. (also notice something funny if you have quickedit turned on the command prompt properties. if you click on the window it will pause the display and screw the stats up royal.. Takes a good while to start showing correct hashrate again) will show the log in a bit.   Was wondering if you could implement your stratum code into Genoil miner with gpu dag creation.  That is almost a must.  I am testing this out with a lonely 7970 for now.  I will pump some more hash when i have more time tomorrow.  Also i would like for you to be able to allow claymores miner to attach to your service.. That would be awesome aswell.  Main thing is getting the 1.1 version of genoil miner with your xnsub and stratum updates.

Dear users,

Introduction of new algorithms and release of NiceHash Miner v1.5.0.0 (new algos Hodl, Decred, Dagger-Hashimoto, speedups and more): https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=news&id=77

Keep on hashing!

Best regards,
NiceHash team.

"Keep on hashing!"...!!!???

Maybe I'll do, but only after you straighten your brains and tell me in a whisper "secret" reason for cunning behavior of your software.

json file:

  "DisableAMDTempControl": true,
   ...
      "Algorithms": [
        {
          "Name": "x11",
          "ExtraLaunchParameters": "--keccak-unroll 0 --hamsi-expand-big 4 --nfactor 10 --xintensity 640 --thread-concurrency    0 --
worksize  64 --gpu-threads 1  --gpu-engine 800-1030,900-1040,900-1040,950-1080 --gpu-memclock 1250,1300,1300,1500 --auto-fan --auto-gpu --gpu-fan 80-90,53-68,53-68,47-62 --temp-cutoff 78,78,78,77 --temp-overheat 74,74,74,74 --temp-target 70,70,70,68 ",

from log file:

[2016-06-08 20:21:49] [INFO] [AMD_OpenCL] Starting miner:  --gpu-platform 0 -k x11 --url=stratum+tcp://x11.eu.nicehash.com:3336 --

Here you can see that xintensity not 640, but 1024. Temperature control settings and fans are not included in the string to start. HOW SO ??.
For whom you are preparing such surprises.

1. Speed reporting is as it is... it is good enough approximation, exact values are not even needed (are needed only for benchmark, so that NHM can calculate exact best profits), your earnings are based on your shares, and speeds out of shares are calculated and displayed online.

2. We plan to further extend Genoil's miner of on-GPU DAG creation; our version will also keep DAG in host memory, so that it can be loaded onto GPUs at any time. NHM switch between algorithms and any kind of waiting between switches is unacceptable (even if it is only 5 seconds for on-GPU DAG creation). Regarding EthereumStratum/1.0.0 in Genoil's miner... well that is something to talk to him. Specifications are online, there are compatible pools, there is working miner example with it... so it is up to Genoil to include it. Talk to him regarding it. If enough users create pressure, he will probably add it.

3. You need to talk to claymore regarding it. Again, all specifications are online (daggerhashimoto: https://github.com/nicehash/nhethpool/blob/master/EthereumStratum_NiceHash_v1.0.0.txt decred: https://github.com/nicehash/ccminer-tpruvot/blob/windows/Decred_NiceHash.txt), there are working pools (mentioned in previous post), there are working miners (in latest NHM) and there are sources for pools and miners. There are no obstacles. Just talk to developer regarding it.

How can i change payout threshold? "Ip Address of one of your workers" can i set nicehash.com?

[TR8888]

I wonder if anyone can help, I mine with multiple 280x's, I use latest Nicehash miner.

I get between 17-19MH per card, I've tried 15.7.1 drivers and latest AMD drivers, Cards are at stock on win 7/8 x64

Should I be getting nearer 22-24MH?

Cheers

[JRDavis]

A  few days ago I noted that my GTX 970 was only producing less than 5 MHs using NHM 1.5 under Windows 10 when mining Ethereum and that I thought that Windows 10 was the problem. I DOWNGRADED my system to Windows 7 and just did another benchmark.

Suspicions confirmed! The 970 now produces 17.7 MHs!!

As suspected, it has something to do with how Windows 10 implemented DirectX.

{I meant, of course, Dagger..., not Ethereum.}

[NiceHashSupport]

We are repeating and rephrasing our message in last news post, because as it seems, there is some confusion regarding Ethereum/DaggerHashimoto.

IMPORTANT NOTICE TO ALL NICEHASH MINERS

We will be soon closing Ethereum pool (port 3500), therefore we urge you to stop mining there.

Instead, we suggest you to mine DaggerHashimoto (port 3353):

• DaggerHashimoto is Ethereum (in most cases) and it pays almost two times more than Ethereum pool.
• You do not have to wait for unexchanged and immature balances, so there are no problems regarding payouts.
• DaggerHashimoto is using the same backend infrastructure as other algorithms (Scrypt, SHA256, X11,...) and has been proven to work flawlessly and superbly over the last two years. There are no problems, no stalls, no missing payments, and you are paid in Bitcoins directly, PPS, using regular payment schedule.
• Switch is easy; just upgrade your NiceHashMiner to latest version: https://github.com/nicehash/NiceHashMiner/releases
• If you do not use NiceHashMiner and you are on Linux, then use this forked ethminer to be able to mine at our DaggerHashimoto: https://github.com/nicehash/cpp-ethereum
• If you do not use NiceHashMiner and you are on Windows, download and use binaries from here: https://github.com/nicehash/cpp-ethereum/releases

[JRDavis]

And what do you intend to do about the ETH (BTC) we earned using NMH earlier that you have relentlessly held as 'unexchanged'?

[TR8888]

+1 , I've had a ETH payment sat in unexchanged for 3 days now.

EDIT, I had 550k sat in unexchanged ETH, Now its windled its way down to 440k sat with no payment....

I don't use the NHM miner as it does not work well IMO, but the genoil ethereal miner should get you 17-20mh on a good quality 280x. The cheapo GPU's with slower ram will get lower.

[hitchpool]

Hitchpool chipping in here :-)

Thank you for using our pool to mine ether!

If you have any questions about our pool or have troubles please drop us a line!
Also if you need to set your payout threshold to a lower value, you can always send us an email and we will set it for you (since you can't set it yourself using nicehash as you won't know the ip of the miners)


cheers!

[JasonXG]

Was also testing it, everything works, payments are good and come as advertised

Somyou rate its worth it ? How much did you invest ? Thanks.
