... Nicehash is mostly legitimate (not strictly a hashing contract but a rental of hashpower), and once you run the numbers it works out that you will pay very close to your expected return.
Their advertising directly implies that you will pay well above your expected return ... Of course that's also not true, but they say it to attract ignorant miners to put their miners on there. One catch with nicehash is that you have no idea about the miners being used at all ... and ... https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1002086.0After our shocking run of bad luck in October, where half the pool hash rate was from nicehash during that bad luck, whenever I see a nicehash IP address/subnet I ban it forever on all servers why is nicehash bad luck for us ? Um ... as I said above After our shocking run of bad luck in October, where half the pool hash rate was from nicehash during that bad luck, whenever I see a nicehash IP address/subnet I ban it forever on all servers I also did a software upgrade to KDB to do full share hashing/checking and difficulty comparison with the value from the ckpool software and reran it on a test server, on over 3 months of data from before the bad luck to after it. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=789369.msg24423914#msg24423914This found no problems with the shares submitted ... So either the end of October was simply just bad luck ... or there's something wrong with nicehash. Either way, nicehash is a bad idea to rent from since you have an expected loss. If you're the gambling addicted type ... there's a few pools that suit that due to bizarre payout schemes that are luck based, or solo, which is even more risky with anything under about 20-30PH now

Just received my 6 S9s from Bitmain. Now what to do with the 4 I don't have room for? Light 'em on fire, that will help difficulty for us. Out o' power.

Because of the potential for block withholding...read the Kano post in the link above to get more info. i read the article i guess i jst dont understand what good it dose them to hold a block can they then submit it under a different solo machine or something ?

You can't change a block so that someone else gets it. Not possible. However, as I said on that thread, there's a number of reasons why to to it - none of which are a loss to the owner of the mining hardware. ... and other reasons as listed there.

No one else affects your own settings. Your settings may change up and down a bit based on your share luck, or if you disconnect/reconnect.

No disconnects, reconnects, power or internet failure here. What is "share luck". I got a bunch of duplicate and hi shares that shift too.

I wonder what the reason is that it seems like new blocks--for us at least--come in bunches. It seems like if we don't get another one in a short period of Nd afterward that it ends up taking a while. Funny how even trying to explain this makes it sound like I'm saying, "Why is it that if they're not quick, they're slow?"... Hilarious.

Hello, all.
I just held the first drawing in this Small Miner Bonus Hash giveaway.
There were 605 eligible miners at 03:00:03 UTC. The winning Kano Pool miner is:
kellenavaI.
Congratulations. You have 96 hours of S3 hashing for you. I just checked - it's averaging 487 GHs on this end ATM.
Regards,
K.P. PasstheHash

Not sure There's no "share luck" on the web site Hmmm... Well it's not on the web site anywhere As for shares - OK they're the same as blocks - random luck finding them with an expected distribution defined by the CDF. The reason it's not as obvious with shares, as with blocks, is coz there's way more of them. In a day you expect to find about 25920 shares, per miner, so since the sample is quite large, you tend to not notice the variance. If you get lucky and find more shares - faster than expected - then the pool may put your work difficulty up, assuming your hash rate is higher. This will mean you'll average less shares of greater value - which is expected to end up the same. If you get unlucky and find less shares - slower than expected - then the pool may put your work difficulty down, assuming your hash rate is lower. This will mean you'll average more shares of lesser value - which is expected to end up the same.

Hi, I am new here and have Newbie questions? I set my T9 to mine in kano pool, but many questions poping up my head 1. to set my wallet address, the kano pool web site ask me for password, what password it should be? i don't remember to set password for my wallet address. 2. what is the minimum amount of BTC to get payment? 3. how i can see the amount of BTC produced/mined, in other words where i can see my miner progress? 4. It is normal that my worker higher invalid % than block %? checking on detail shows many stales? thanks, i would appreciate any reply with answers
