IMPORTANT NOTICE TO ALLAbout a year ago, we introduced
WestHash, a brother service of
NiceHash which has stratum proxy located in USA West coast. We did it, so we could offer buyers two source points of renting hashpower and give better coverage to sellers with another hashpower destination point in USA West coast.
We are very aware that everything in crypto scene is very fast and actions need to be taken immediately. We were forced to establish a separate system, which is of course not fully convenient for our customers, especially buyers. There is extra work needed such as being logged in at two sites and monitoring two lists of orders. We did not have proper ideas and solutions, nor the time to implement everything in very short period of time thus we created separate system -
WestHash.
But over time, we were monitoring customers requests, adding in new features and laid a good future plan what to do to eventually merge WestHash into NiceHash and offer all customers unique experience. We created
Live Marketplace, which visually unites both markets (
WestHash and
NiceHash) into single real-time updated page.
In following days we are taking final steps of this large venture;
WestHash will be fully merged into
NiceHash and there will be no need for two logins anymore. Visiting
WestHash.com will bring you to
NiceHash frontend.
You may have noticed that we have already taken few steps towards this - previously mentioned
Live Marketplace, united statistics for miners, united first page statistics table, united
Blockchain Lottery and united list of
past orders.
Live Marketplace will replace
Order list and
My order list pages.
Finally, there will be some changes needed to the API. For everyone using the API, you should read following very carefully.We will try to keep as much backward compatibility as possible. Accessing service through WestHash.com/api will still work in future, but will be obsolete. We recommend that all API users update their software with recommendations mentioned here.
First, we will roll out API version
1.1.0. This version will bring in optional parameter named
location to following methods:
- stats.provider
- orders.get
- orders.get&my
- orders.create
- orders.refill
- orders.remove
- orders.set.price
- orders.set.price.decrease
- orders.set.limit
If
location parameter is set to 0, it targets
NiceHash market, if set to 1, it targets
WestHash market. With
location as an optional parameter and WestHash.com/api still working, we keep the backward compatibility and at the same time gives you ability to use API only over NiceHash.com/api to manage orders on
WestHash market. If optional parameter
location is not supplied then
NiceHash market is targeted if accessing through NiceHash.com/api and
WestHash market is targeted if accessing through WestHash.com/api.
Second API change (version
1.2.0) will make changes to
orders.get method. Values
rejected_gh,
accepted_gh,
btc_avail,
btc_paid and
rejected_speed will be removed from returned output to match the data displayed on Live Marketplace. We decided to remove them because some do not bring any important information (
rejected_gh, accepted_gh, rejected_speed) or because of being private and changeable at any time (
btc_avail, btc_paid).
If your software is using these values, you should modify your software before we update API to 1.2.0.As always, we request from our customers to report us all the issues to
contact mails.
