Nicehash, u must do sumthing about lower hashrate being lifted to .10 GHs as it wud help those whose requirement is in 100-1000khs.Also 15 days hashing is quite less.it must be a min of 30 days.waiting for the update..

Nicehash, u must do sumthing about lower hashrate being lifted to .10 GHs as it wud help those whose requirement is in 100-1000khs.

Different algorithms have different minimum "Limit hashing speed" limitations. Which algorithm are you referring to?

Also, the lower limits are set to a rational number in dependence of average rigs that providers are using when selling hashing power to our system. We can't support low limits due to the nature of rig assignment to a particular order, which is also tied to our order sorting algorithm.

Also 15 days hashing is quite less.it must be a min of 30 days

A life span of 15 days for a single order will have to stay. It is more then enough for alive orders and we have intentionally limited live span to prevent placeholder dead orders.

I'm talking about scrypt.My requirement is low ie 50 MHS.Previously it was 0.05GHs min but now it is lifted.I don't see any reason why.

As explained before: unfortunately we can't support low limits due to the nature of rig assignment to a particular order. Today's Scrypt rigs are in average 50+ MH/s and since we can't split a particular rig into two (or more) orders we can't afford to set low limits below 100 MH/s. Moreover, network hashrate of most Scrypt coins is higher each day therefore we believe that for efficient and profitable mining 100 Mh/s is a sane minimum for any coin. Thanks for understanding and for using our service!

Vertcoin have now announce the hard fork to Lyra2RE, it will be around December 16th.

Is there any plans to include Lyra2RE at nicehash?

Best regards,

One question if you mine on nicehash does it show up on your westhash balance or does nicehash have its own  balance,I mine with my own rigs.

They are separate.

Can anybody tell me why there are so many coinbase errors with nicehash recently as its quite annoying

Just add  /skipckeck after url:port, my internet is slow, so I couldn't check your PC, sorry!

Westhash dead?

just testing out nicehash. great service

so tl;dr...

what is extranonce subscription?

See http://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/5048/what-is-the-extranonce .

Extract.

extraNonce gets put into the input of the generation transaction. getwork clients can't see transactions, so they can't update extraNonce. Some miners instead modify nTime slightly to give them more nonce space.

extraNonce is used by bitcoind, but it's not part of the protocol. There is no extraNonce field in blocks or transactions.

thank you Muhammed, appreciated.

[Muhammed Zakir]

Westhash is okay now. But why does it come and go frequently when compared to Nicehash?

thank you Muhammed, appreciated.

Welcome!

Could someone please explain why updating my S3+ CGminer to extra-nonce subscription is good? I don't like changing things for no reason so would like to know how this will benefit me or is this just a benefit to West/NiceHash?

it stabilises your miner on switching.

it stabilises your miner on switching.

.. and thus gives you a bit better payouts since your hashrate is completely stable (doesn't fluctuate when orders changes on nicehash/westhash)

extranonce.subscribe is scheduled to be included in future antminers firmware (but we don't know in which release) and hopefully ckolivas will also include it into his version someday (btw: extranonce.subscribe is already in bfgminer for quite some time now, as well as sgminer and ccminer, it is also described in bitcoin wiki: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Stratum_mining_protocol#mining.extranonce.subscribe)

Thanks for the info. Not sure if I want to bother changing out the version on my Ant S3.

Who ever it is constantly placing a no limit order at double what everyone is currently paying, you are douche, serious douche

[Kisokos]

That's fine, peeps keep using bots to do this. It's really annoying, but that's that.

However.

Explain this to me dear nicehash.

I've 2 orders of the same price sitting there for hours, getting hashes nicely. say order #151 and #153

THEN all of a sudden an order comes up BETWEEN my two orders, with an id like #146.

So, I get it, it was a dead order with the same price as my two. Died at one point, and then the bot revived it. Shouldn't that got to the END of the price group? according to your rules?
Or, go to the top. Fine. Then it's a bug, or the rules are not correct on your FAQ.
But BETWEEN two newer orders? How?

Anyone know how to add the extranonce to an sp20 miner.
