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

[dloganbill]

Are there any problems with Nicehash stability today? Hashrate is very volatile today...

I've been seeing issues as well.  I don't have a p=x setting in place and nothing is hitting my failover.

Fully normal, it just says that there was work switch - different coin being mined.

where is the problem?

If my pool goes down and I need to change it is there a way of just changing pools without cancelling my order and losing the 0.005 order fee? Have had to cancel 3 or 4 orders on the launch of a new coin

I got a problem with NiceHash, i wonder if an admin can help.

I'm trying to buy some hash to blackcoinpool, but my order seems to go dead like 90% of the time.  as soon as the order starts, after 5-10 minutes, my order shows up dead.  and maybe half an hour later, it comes back alive again and goes another 5-10 minutes before going dead again.  This goes on and on. 

Can you guys check why your connectivity to blackcoinpool is so bad?  It is not the pool's problem because I mine there using other cloud hashing services (Gawminers) and my own gridseeds and have no problem whatsoever. 

Thanks.

I have a similar problem with SHA256 on ghash.io pool, original order I setup used the uk.ghash.io address and spent more time dead than alive, then I realised Nicehash is US based so created another order pointing at us.ghash.io. The original order still has some credit left but both seem to be permanently dead now. I assume there is a good reason why we can't setup a backup pool or change the primary pool on an order, but I dont like cancelling an old order and losing my priority in the queue (although as someone mentioned earlier its not clear whether that priority is working correctly).

[nicetry]

actually people mentioned in the forums that nicehash got problems with multipools, but if we can't use it with multipools, then what good is it?  Blackcoinpool server is actually US based.  So i don't see why nicehash would have problem connecting to it.

Im new to NiceHash.com, maybe someone can help me. Want to run in nscrypt but dont know if the config file for windows is correct. i downloaded the sgminer version from the nicehash webpage and this is my .bat to start

sgminer.exe -k zuikkis -o stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:3335 -u 123 -p 456 --gpu-engine 938 --gpu-memclock 1500 -g 1 -I 20 --thread-concurrency 35960 --gpu-powertune 20

I just need the information if "-k zuikkis" is the only parameter to run in nscrypt?

Many thanks

Hello Nice Hash Team

Just wondering if you will supporting x13 before they come out and if yes when are you planning to start.

Thanks

[guzzzi]

Tryed x11 but getting a lot of

Stratum from Pool 0 requested work restart

Anyone know how to fix this?

It's normal.

Have been using nicehash for about two days now, and really impressed so far. Have approx 3.9mh pointed at it and the returns look good, very good, so far.
I have a black widow from gawminers hopefully arriving soon, so will also add that to the hash rate.

nicehashdev,
looks like you have charts component linked to your service via external API (google's?), right? I'm assuming that because often text stats are loading extremely fast, but charts load takes forever with "Waiting for google.com" in browser status line. Could you just download that component and load it from your own server instead of external?

I've asked this to some pool admins in their IRCs and they advise to put a limit on the rented speed. This depends on the pool but usually around 0.3gh/s per worker.
Those that go unavailable(red) while waiting in the queue don't like to keep an open connection without any work requests and some pools don't want to change this behavior. Understandably, to save bandwidth(less likely) or minimize attack risk I guess.

OK, some good news here, for both providers and buyers.

1.) X13 and Keccak (SHA3) algorithms have been added.

2.) Builds of the brand new sgminer-5 are available: https://nicehash.com/software/#sgminer (more info here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=632503.0); you can use this sgminer for all algorithms, supported by NiceHash (except SHA256, of course).

Thanks for using NiceHash!

Terrible!!! First your "upgrade" allowed new orders to be qued above older ones and you didn't return them to the proper order. Now you add another decimal place allowing people to place orders at a small fraction above what someone else placed an order at weeks ago at an expected interval.
I placed my order at .04 and .03 when ordinary pools were still paying over .05 knowing that patience would yield me an arbitrage. By first refusing to fix the error caused by your "upgrade" and now allowing others to place orders at a small fraction above my orders you have stolden that opportunity.
The proper way to handle the adding of another decimal place would have been to close to new orders and allowed existing orders to be filled and only then added more decimal places and reopen for orders. As it is you have effectively ripped everyone with an order smaller than .05 off

Ok, I feel better after my rant. Nice hash is trying very hard to provide a quality product and I am quite happy with the returns that I am receiving on my sold hashing power. I an sad because if the queing mistake not been made I would've already made 20% return simply by using the service. I am sure that even under the current circumstances I will make an acceptable return.

[kenshirothefist]

Fresh builds of sgminer-5 are available: https://nicehash.com/software/#sgminer (x13mod has been added).

Note: darkcoin and darkcoin-mod represents x11 and x11mod (optimized), respectively; marucoin and marucoin-mod represents x13 and x13mod (optimized), respectively.

Note: hd5xxx/6xxx still have problems with marucoin-mod (x13mod), but lasybear is working on it, I guess it will be fixed soon.

[pzero15]

I'm trying the x13 algo with sgminer 5.0, but with the following command line, my prompt window is closing on startup.

setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
del *.bin
sgminer -k marucoin -o stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:3337 -u BTC_ADDR -p x -I 13 -g 2 -w 256 --thread-concurrency 8192 --api-listen --api-allow W:127.0.0.1

**even the marucoin-mod is doing the same thing.

Thanks for your help
