Is there a trick to getting claymore's ETH miner to behave properly on nicehash? I've followed the example in the readme for ETH only mining on nicehash, but all my rigs eventually all crap out randomly when (I'm assuming) nicehash switches between different coins that require different DAGs.

What I mean by crap out, is every cards goes bad at the same time and stops mining, but without actually crashing. I can just restart claymore and be on my way again.

I've always just mined on straight ETH pools and never had an issue.

Report the issue to claymore.

Already have, posted about it in his thread.

So as far as you're aware, there shouldn't be an issue? Guess it must be something on my end if no one else has experienced this.

Haven't mined eth in some time. Did you set the flag that jumps the epoch ahead. Basically forces more into vid ram by setting a future epoch.  when it switches coins if someone say was mining etc when you connect and it switches to eth then it would lock up on the dag. Just a thought

Just looked at the readme it's the -eres switch. Not sure how many epochs ethereum is ahead of etc. as long as you can set a high enough value that should work. If eth is over 9 epochs ahead you may have some trouble if you can't specify double digits.

Checked both block explorers   I did the calcs. Epoch changes every 30000 blocks.  So by my figures both chains are on 112 epoch. The default for claymore is to jump ahead 2 epochs.  Wonder if their is another coin people are mining that has a much lower epoch number. Thus creating a small dag file. When you open the miner pay attention to the epoch number and see if that isn't the issue. Surely their isn't a dagger-hashimoto coin with a larger epoch than eth or etc. sorry I couldn't be more help. I don't think the dag size is the issue.

Hello, I have few nob questions, maybe someone can point me to right answers.

First of all, I can not run or even benchmark on my graphics card (GeForce 770) Equihash (nheqminer) and X11Ghost(ccminer_alexis). Normal X11Ghost works perfectly fine.

Secondly, for my CPU (FX-6300) I see only one algorithm available (CryptoNight (XmrStackCPU), is this normal?

How do I prevent nicehashbot from draining all funds in my account.

Does all of my orders have auto renew or what?

Please see here for a list of all features: https://github.com/nicehash/NiceHashBot#features

NiceHashBot is an open-source tool and can be modified to your needs by anyone. The current implementation is only basic and it simply provides you a way to keep your order with hashing power at a minimum possible price until you cancel it.

You're also welcome to submit ideas for new features here: https://github.com/nicehash/NiceHashBot/issues


Best regards,

Trying to figure out the price setting here ....

https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=faq#faqs5

The example given is 4 BTC/GH/Day (which, presumably, is waaaaay out of date to be anywhere near realistic now?).

I have an S9 (13.5 TH/S) that I'd like to have automatically switch to a pool, whenever the NiceHash price is below the pool's average. The S9 averages about 8 mBTC/Day using said pool, so how does that convert?   I'd like the S9 to stay connected to NiceHash most of the time, switching to the alternative pool when the price equates to less than, say, 7.5 mBTC/Day.



Also, just out of curiosity: When mining on a BTC pool, the S9 always shows zero 'FoundBlocks' (as you'd expect) yet, after just a few days mining using NiceHash, there are hundreds of FoundBlocks. Clearly it's not mining BTC, so what is it mining?

Thanks

With NiceHash, you earn bitcoins by PPS scheme. It means that you earn bitcoins for every valid share you send.
How many blocks did buyer found is unknown to sellers (you).

You can read more here: https://www.nicehash.com/?p=faq#faqg3

Thanks Yeah, I figured that. So why is my S9 showing hundreds of FoundBlocks?  

Not that it matters .... just curious. The S9 is working great on NiceHash either way!

And would you happen to know the answer to my question about the price setting?  

Thanks again

well Bitcoin and ALOT of alts use sha256 algo, which the s9 can mine, so even though you think you are  mining btc .. your probably mining some alt coin that uses the sha256 algo. Hence the diff lvl is lower then btc and easier to find blocks

Icon, thanks. That's what I figured. I'm just curious which altcoin that's likely to be. Peercoin perhaps?

I saw rejected ntime
on order 2410264
I am buying that and
I use their neoscrypt port. why 100% reject rate or -100% delta?
may be just a bit of bad luck. what is ntime reject anyway? Is this because your server is too far from the hub?
similar order on the european server is doing fine even though someone always bid .0001 on top of me so I never got traffic.

Very interesting market.

What is ntime?

[jelin1984]

i mining one day and still not paid at my wallet the balance from nice hash

why that happen?

There was no rejected ntime on that order, but simply "unluck". Order did not run enough to get near 0 delta, probably there was only 1 miner share which didn't have high enough diff for the pool. With such short orders, it is very hard to say whether something is working correctly or not. You need to let it run for some time (at least 5 minutes) and with higher hashing power.

We are paying all miners according to schedule.

@nicehashsupport.  

seems you have some issues.  Not sure if this was planned or what the deal is..  Web front end is down as well as the Stratums.. Just wanted to let you know as well as others if they are pointed here


edit seems the stratums are intermittent

Edit2. back to good .. Thanks

As no-one answered this bit I shall assist, you don't need to know what your S9 earns, you just need to know the rate per PH which is the measure that Nicehash uses.

So you can use any of the online calculators eg
https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/difficulty

Enter 1000TH, and it will tell you that currently the rate is 0.5286

You can also find this figure in Nicehash's own API here...
https://www.nicehash.com/api?method=stats.global.current

You need algo 1 which is SHA256, and I have highlighted the price

{"price":"0.7800","profitability_btc":"0.5286","profitability_above_btc":"47.56","algo":1,"speed":"17106408.29029320"}

So that gives you a base value for -p, but remember you may need to take other things into account. For example the 3% fee that nicehash charges in which case you could have -p 0.5445. Some pools are currently paying PPS + 10%, so you could have -p 0.5818, it all depends what margin you want and where you currently mine.
