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

[treanski]

hello, is it possible so set static difficulty for cryptonight? (selling hashpower)

Hi guys!

I just registered to discuss:
I had this in mind for a couple of months but never had the time to refine - and TPB just made it:
mining not for you but for an organisation to support.

Well, mining in the background and without asking the user is a bit, impolite.
Why don't make a miner that can be scaled down (no one likes to work on a slow PC)
and registers an organisation to support via URI?

Or is that a huge problem? (too fragmented, do they mean huge overhead?)

I started mining with NiceHash recently on a basic laptop which was just lying around (power is free) as a way to get some Sats however slowly. The problem I'm facing is when I start the miner, it works fine for some time (30 mins - 1 hour) but then looses the connection. I then have to end it and restart with a different server - sometimes even that does not work.

Of course, if I need to stay in front of my computer to make it work, then there is no point to doing this. Has anyone else also faced this problem? Any thoughts on the resolution? NiceHash support has been extremely slow in responding. Please see below for the screenshot of the problem:

Why can't I limit hash rate at Nicehash? When I buy say 10GH/s sometimes is scales up to 80! It doesn't seem to be possible to set the limit even though it is specified when buying hash rate.

Hey guys,

Been mining with Claymore v10 but was trying to see if it could be more profitable to mine with NiceHash...

So first issue is with SGMiner. Get an issue straight away about OpenCL not being recognised and never gets started... Any ideas?

Second issue is after spending a couple of hours benchmarking all my cards when I press to start mining it opens up claymore and starts mining ETH&Lbry. It recognises that I have 6 cards (and I also selected all 6 before pressing start) but it only starts mining with GPU#0... Anyone have a fix for this? Will I have to change the bat files in the Bin folders for every program?

Many thanks.

The new site doesn't show my miners. Great job nicehash

Looks like your customer calculator is not working as expected:

https://www.nicehash.com/profitability-calculator/custom?e=4&currency=MXN&power=1000&cost=29500&algo0=0&algo1=0&algo2=0&algo3=15000&algo4=0&algo5=0&algo6=0&algo7=0&algo8=0&algo9=0&algo10=0&algo11=0&algo12=0&algo13=0&algo14=0&algo15=0&algo16=0&algo17=0&algo18=0&algo19=0&algo20=0&algo21=0&algo22=0&algo23=0&algo24=0&algo25=0&algo26=0&algo27=0&algo28=0&algo29=0

For 1 week it shows 6,700 and for 1 month 63k.
Unless a month has 9.5 weeks this is accurate.

Ever since the maintenance on the website 2 nights ago workers are shown as 0 on the miner page, irregardless of how many are actually connected. The latest Legacy Miner is buggy too, it continually opens mining windows, closes and opens more over and over. It's effectively unusable in it's current state.

Same problem here. Please fix it!

That is past results. For past week and for past month. The profit is going down, that's why you are seeing such difference.

Are you guys experiencing funny little quarks at niceshash off and on with various things??

Do you mean the service or the website? I've been running the client with no problem for a few weeks now, no complaints.

[Johninthai]

I'm running my asic on antminer, got about 5.4% rejected shares ! Is this normal ? Is it my internet connection that creates this or other factors ?
Thx

While Nicehash fixes this, copy and paste the link below and enter your BTC wallet address in the 'wallet_here' section.

Does anyone expiriencing troubles with nicehash for the past 2 days?
What I have:
1) Periodically "Unable to login due to system due to system maintenance". Login was unaccesible! I have couple of orders and I could not stop them, change or anything else
2) Often instead of proper API response we have HTML-page, about "system maintenance" and "couple of minutes". It's not offline page, it's response, but with HTML instead of JSON. My selfmade bot went crazy, and I rewrote it around 8 hours to properly handle this shit
3) When API sends HTMLs whole marketplace was down, coz it depends on API also. By the way, old marketplace was working!
Is this DDoS? Why is silence in Nicehash twitter? Maybe we have to start worrying about our bitcoins on Nicehash?

For you apple iPhone users. Dl Nicestats and Input your btc addy. You will get your workers back while they fix this problem

I have been having problems with my bot as well, like you it's only been for the last few days.

If the site is down, there isn't a lot that can be done, so those don't bother me too much, but getting lots of these errors
HTTP/1.1 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable
and it appears to be happening mid script, so my guess is there has been a recent change to the frequency of API calls and they are now being rejected.

The docs do say that you should wait 3 seconds between each one (not sure if this is recently changed), which is what I have had to do to get it working again but it's not ideal.

Unfortunately with a bot there is no real way to avoid api calls, I only like to get a small percentage so I need to work out the speed available on both nicehash and westhash (2 calls). You need to scan all the orders to determine the current lowest price (2 calls), then you need to scan your orders to see what price you are currently paying (2 calls). This is before you even start to add/change/cancel/top up your orders

[tyfreak]

Right now Nicehash is down! Web-part is working, stratum for miners is working, but I can't login ("Failed to login due to system maintenance"), API returns trash and old site isn't working too! Sadness and tears, unicorns are crying!
