Hi

I am trying to connect 2 Pinidea DR2 miners to Nice. The first well-earned, the second does not (loop restart). I gave him a different Bitcoin address - still does not work.
Connected to the back pool (suprnova) - it works fine.
What is the problem?

PS
Connect the second miner to the Chinese stratum of Nice - earned excellent!

What do you guys think, besides Zcash and Ether, will there be anything profitable for mining in the next year or so?

Something is seriously fubar on the Nicehash statistics pages right now -- and I hope I'm actually still actually accruing BTC and not wasting power. Anyway, today around 2-3pm (Pacific), not long after the 1.7.3.4 update went out for the NiceHashMiner, I checked my stats and suddenly had seriously crap results. I haven't even updated several of my PCs, so they're still running 1.7.3.3 (these are AMD cards). Equihash has been running on the CPUs for about eight systems in the meantime, and that is still (currently) happening, though I may have to halt that soon if profitability doesn't change. Anyway, eight PCs (twelve technically, but four aren't doing CPU mining and aren't on Equihash at all at the moment), all with different names. Stuff like "Garage", "Office", "3x980" and so on. All of the other algorithms show the correct miner names, but Equihash shows 0 hash rate and this is what I see on the miners:



Please fix this issue, because having eight miners showing "eqm1" and all with no hashrate is more than a little worrisome. Not that any of my PCs are going to be doing Equihash much longer at this rate, but it was a good two week run.

Hi,

why I have refused connections on some of my computers? Is there any problem on HN site or am I banned?  
I cannot connect to any of HN sites. (eu, usa, jp or hk).

Gee

[geenius]

We had service maintenance. Everything should be back to normal now.

I invite you to follow us on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/NiceHash/) or Twitter (https://twitter.com/NiceHashMining) for regular updates.

Ok thank you, it is working now. 

Sometimes I had a curious problem here that one computer is not able to connect to EU (for a few days) but USA is working and other one vice versa. How is this possible? I am from EU and I am behind a firewall.

Hi,

I am about to test drive your site in terms of selling my hash power and will be using the AMD miner provided by your site since it can mine multi algos for my RX 290 8G but what I have noticed that your benchmark is saying that each of my cards can mine Equihash at 29 H/s when I have a better miner that can do almost double than this (51 H/s) minus the 90 seconds Dev fee that I have to pay per  hour which is alright with me given that that particular miner nearly doubles my hash throughput per each GPU I have (I have two so its like if I Had nearly 4), so, my question is, when it comes to the Equihash portion of mining is it possible to "piggyback" my other miner and make your NiceHash miner use that when it decides to mine Equihash Algos instead of using the nearly 2x not-efficient Equihash miner that was prepackaged in your /Bin?  Since you designed this miner to be "auto config" I would like to know how much room do I have to make these kinds of modifications without breaking anything.

Thanks.

Just set up a BTC p2pool node on a VPS in San Jose for those of you wishing to rent from westhash to mine on p2pool.

Use 72.5.73.193:9332 for pool info
Use your Bitcoin address for your username
Any password will work

To see stats http://72.5.73.193:9332/static/
Fee is 1%

Append +10000 for each increment of 10th

For example if your mining with 50th
15X8ziBTCLEQCU2eUwWoQCYqJV7CoJSFoC+50000

80th
15X8ziBTCLEQCU2eUwWoQCYqJV7CoJSFoC+80000

100th
15X8ziBTCLEQCU2eUwWoQCYqJV7CoJSFoC+100000

Is the minimum mining profitability check working correctly in the NiceHash Miner ?

I just tried this out on a rig with 5 x R7 370, which returns around 53 MH, $2.50 per day.

I enabled the Minimum Profit ($/Day) setting with a value of $2.00

When I run the miner, it clearly does not wait long enough for the MH to increase and settle to its maximum before deciding its not profitable to mine, only registering a MH of 10-12, and a profit of $0.49/day, hence stopping mining.

Also miner code crashes if the minimum profit entry box is left blank rather than zero !

When renting hashing power is there a way to connect to a pool that doesn't use stratum+tcp before the url? Nicehash seems to automatically attach stratum+tcp to the beginning of the pool url and it doesn't want to connect. When I use the pool Verification it says the pool will work.

Any tips or resources please for integrating Cryptonight mining at Nicehash (stratum+tcp://cryptonight.eu.nicehash.com:3355) into cpuminer-multi_1.3-dev_ubuntu_x64 ??  Thanks in advance.  Steve.

Just use cpuminer-opt:

Code:

sudo apt-get install build-essential libcurl4-openssl-dev git automake libtool libjansson* libncurses5-dev libssl-dev libgmp-dev
git clone https://github.com/JayDDee/cpuminer-opt.git
cd cpuminer-opt
./build -j$(nproc)

./cpuminer -t NUM-OF-CPU-THREADS -a cryptonight -o stratum+tcp://cryptonight.eu.nicehash.com:3355 -u YOUR-BITCOIN-ADDRESS.WORKER-NAME -p x

Nicehash  could you make it possible to rent hash from you and send it to my wallet to wallet mine?  Thx

I don't understand.
You want to buy hashing power for SHA256? And you want to mine on your deposit address? If so, this is not possible.

No I want to rent hash and send it directly to my wallet on my computer. Any algo.  

[tbearhere]

You can buy hashing power and direct it to any pool you want.
And anything you mine on that pool, goes directly to your wallet.

But I need to mine Directly to my wallet. And yes the way you described it is a way I know. The question is, can it be done that way, directly to my wallet?  Thank you.

Hi,

I´m new over the place, and also over mining. I´m having trouble trying to run Nicehash with a Rx 480, both in win7 or win10, no matter driver version. I got this message "Failed to create OpenGL context for format QSurfaceFormat", and when I run the benchmarks I get a blue screen. Anyone can help?

Sorry if I´m asking something already answered, as I said I´m noob.

Thanx a lot.

If anyone is looking for a pool, Hash Refinery works well with NiceHash - http://pool.hashrefinery.com/

I have been using NiceHash power during testing and have not had any issues.

Please make sure to update your AMD drivers. Also, if you're new in mining and using Windows, we suggest you to use simple-to-use NiceHash Miner.

Seriously dude, that's exactly what I'm trying, tu use NiceHash Miner. Is it mean to work with Rx 470 or Rx 480, or not??

I've tried one Rx 470 and one Rx 480 in two different PCs, with different mobos, different CPU, I've tried with Win7 and Win 10, I used latest drivers, and nothing worked, I always get this blue screen http://imgur.com/a/TyNxr when I make any benchmark different from daggerhashimoto or equihash. With those two works fine, but with any other I get the blue screen.

Please, can somebody help me or should I look for a different mining software?

Thanx
