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

[NiceHashSupport]

Is cloud mining a viable option for profiting? I've been scammed through cloud mining services before and I just want to make sure that doesn't happen again before investing my earned funds.

Cloud mining services often turn out ponzi schemes as users cannot verify if the cloud mining contracts or shars they purchased are backed by real hardware, the moment enough number of investors suspect the ability of the operator to stay solvent, the service will impode. This is how the Wall Street-type rip off small investors and the same trick is borrowed by the dishoest cloud mining services.

Sadly many ppl in the community has not yet waken up to the fact and scams continue.

The only reliable ways to mine with high likelihood to profit is:

1. Mine yourself if you have access to cheap hardware and cheap electricity

2. Find a reputable hoster who meets the aforementioned conditions.

3. Use NiceHash.

Hi!

It's me... again xD I have a few questions:

1) I have set up your wallet, is there any difference with the cryptonator one, for example? Is there any advantage with yours?

2) I couldn't set up well the pool on nicehash website to a supernova pool for example, is it posible? Am I missing something?

3) I read somewhere in your website that you provide support to "medium or big farms" (setting up stuff to improve the mining). What is considered a "medium or big farm"? This service is for free?

Thank you!

I already have my first rig working and I'm pretty glad with the results, expecting to increase the farm if I figure out how to keep it cold

Looks like NiceHash increased the minimum hashing speed limit for SHA256 orders from .01 to .05 PH/s this morning at about 9:44 EST (14:44 Z).

As a miner, is there any program or way to track multiple addresses that I currently have hashpower pointed at?  I want to get my rigs seperate so I can track individual profit, but checking each address manually takes a while.

If you have any scripting experience, it looks like the API could gather the data you need--https://www.nicehash.com/?p=api

Specifically, this call:  stats.provider - Get current stats for provider for all algorithms. Refreshed every 30 seconds. It also returns past 56 payments.

Yea I have seen that they have an API, and had mentioned it to my brother as a possible small job for him to work on (He is a web developer), but that is something I probably couldn't do.  Was curious if there was any premade thing like that or if I should have him work on it.

sha256 minimum hash rent 0.05PH/s?!

If he's a stack developer of any sort he should be able to bang something out pretty quick.  I would ask him to give it a whirl.

The hashrates are going up strongly but bitcoin price is also going up. So that is why the hashrates worth a lot more now , you can make more bitcoins with the hashes that is going up than you used to be , bitcoin price is now over 700$ which is a lot more than it was a year ago when the hashrates were cheaper. At least I assume that is the reason for it , I hope rates stay lower soon tough.

Hi!

Why I have always -20 delta and sometimes -50? :/

[gsarducci]

Is this an appropriate place to try to get support for the mining software?  No apparent central service or tech support portal on the website, just pointing here and Reddit (where I posted my problem already), or Github (I don't have an account and don't really want one, as I am not a developer).  I'd really like to get in on some of this sweet hash but my power mining rig wont run the NiceHash program. Ironically my wimpy laptop is happily hashing away on Nicehash, albeit at the speed of smell, so I'll make like 1000 Satoshi a day doing that... Maybe.

Anyway, enough of my bloviating. If this is the place I'll elaborate on what's going on.  Thanks!

Is this still profitable to use? Should I build a rig or two, GPU rigs, 480x? Is it possible to make money using nicehash since all alts re going down and down.

Can u add support SIBCoin ?
Now it's much more profitable then other.

Maybe we'll add it. We already have support in our official Sgminer: https://github.com/nicehash/sgminer/releases

Regardless if i use the binaries or build from source, it always coredumps.

I am getting an error using cryptonight. I use cpu mining by the way.

stratum_recv_line failed
retry after 10 seconds

can anyone help me?

You're trying with w0lf's cpuminer, correct?

[ejhayehm]

sorry I am newbie and I dunno what wolfs miner. as far as I know, I am using the software that can be downloaded with nicehash website.

I got 2 pc, the other one is running smoothly but the other one getting that error.

How about adding Cryptonote to AMD miners? Why is it only available to CPU & Nvidia GPUs or am i missing something?

[malafaya]

If order prices are higher in US than EU servers, does it make a difference in how much I will earn if I switch my miner from EU to US stratum server?
