The idle bug is still there with the firmware from the site for the S4 tested it today and the S4 dropped. Any help would greatly be appreciated. Thanks

So now the website is CloudFlare protected?
I really hate CloudFlare. I know it's a necessary evil, but it really gets in the way.

Our site is under CloudFlare Pro from day 1, but today we had to enable more aggressive protection since our intrusion prevention system detected possible attacks ... back to normal now.

Hello ALL
I need Urgent Answer from pool operator or Expert User
I have 6 Minners linked to SOLO POOL
Can I use 1 worker for 6 miners or 6 workers for 6 miners (1 worker for 1 minner ) ?
we are in solo pool searching only for best shares so if 6 Miners with 1 worker generate different shares so may it be not good for pool to track that worker .
and if i split workers i will have low hashrate for every worker and i will got best share in longer time .
I hope u all reply with yours knowledge
Thanks

Anyone with a S4 have a problem with the p=x.xxxx Switch for some reason the S4 is not switching pools. I am trying the Smit/nicehash firmware now to see what happens. Thanks in advance

OMG What has happened to the SHA256 rental price? The price is ridiculous! Has something happened to BTC? Or maybe a new coin?
LOL, I came here just to ask the same question!! And btw, does nicehash/westhash have an IRC chan?
A new altcoin dropped I believe.
You would think. Nobody I know knows anything about it.
Another possibility is there is going to be a big announcement about an existing coin and they don't want to tip it off on the exchanges. But that should show up as an unexplained difficulty increase.
I don't care what it is.....multiple days of xx% instead of x% is just fine with me.
That's the way I feel. Hope they make money too.
Before the price increase prices were low and I was buying some too, and I got skunked so bad on my pool! It's like a jinx. Pools should pay me to not put rental hash on them!

but not solo mining

Here's a my newbie Nicehash questions:
1) When to look for the most profitable coin I look at the "currently paying" column on the homepage, right?
So when it says X11 is the most profitable at 0.2749 and then I see Neoscrypt at 5.3425 or X13 at 0.3391, etc. Why aren't they highlighted as most profitable?

That is because the average hashing rate for each algo is different. Let's say your card can only hash 5.5Mh/s on X11 and 256kh/s on Neoscrypt. Your card is only hashing 4.65% compared to X11. So, even if Neoscrypt is paying 5.3425 you're really only making an equivalent of 0.2487 at your Neoscrypt hashing rate compared to X11 at 0.274.

2) What's the advantage of renting power? I guess I can mine whatever coin I want with the rented power? Is there any profit to be made that way by renting hashing power and mining with it?
If you play it right, you can pump a large amount of hash power on a coin that has a low difficulty. Which means you would have the greater advantage of getting more coins than the average miner. Then, dump it while it's hot.

3) By renting on Nicehash, Is this another way of doing "cloud mining"? But I guess you can see what you rent instead of cloud mining where you just get daily payouts and nothing more.
Thanks!
Thanks!
This isn't "cloud mining" as you define it. This is very much like mining rig rental, except the mining rigs are not all sitting in a centralized datacenter. The hash power is distributed among mining rigs that are connected to Nice/WestHash service all over the world. Because you are not renting a "single" mining rig, your hash rate is not dependent on a single rig's availability. The many rigs connected to Nice/Westhash are automatically distributed to provide the hashing power you need.

Mister Nice,
Is there a preferred difficulty for mining in your solo pool with AntMiner S5s
Is there any reason to use the extranonce subscription #xnsub

Is there anyone reading this that is renting SHA256? Can I ask what coin you're mining? Has something new arrived?
I'm bored doing nothing, staring at the price, waiting for it to drop.

Looks like someone hit blockchain lottery? Am I reading that correct? Unfortunately it wasn't me.
If that is correct on the site. 12 TH hit a block in the first 3 days. Pretty damn lucky. I started 2 hours ago and think I may switch back.

Yes, NiceHash solo mining Bitcoin pool found it's first block
The happy user already said thanks and sent us the print-screen of his/her lucky AntMiner S3:
Why would a solo miner need a pool
What does that even mean, solo mining pool
It's exactly what it says on the tin. It's a pool set up that when you're mining, it's only YOU! No-one else, just you, solo.

NiceHash seems like a cool idea. It must have launched right around the time I stopped messing around with Bitcoin. It may have kept me around longer if I knew about it at the time. 
I can see how the price to rent would rise when there are alt coins people want to throw lots of hash power at for short periods of time, but when it comes to mining Bitcoin itself, is the idea people with hardware can get a PPS payment with no variance (albeit lower than mining normally) and people who rent can pay the PPS and then mine bitcoin directly to arbitrage the difference in expected return by absorbing all of the variance themselves?
Or do people not generally rent hash power to mine Bitcoin, and instead it's mostly about the alt coins?
Edit: I guess that's not the thing at all. Looking at the price history graphs, esp. on scrypt, people consistently pay more than the miners would make mining bitcoin/litecoin themselves. Are buyers of hash power predominately mining alt coins?

sorry if i ask old question..
if i set price 0.017BTC/TH, i will get 0.017BTC per ths, but if i didnt set the price, what will i get, is based on Renting Price or High Renting Price ?
thanks.

If you're renting hash then that will be the price you are going to pay per TH. You can then either increase it or occasionally decrease it. There's a nicehash bot that you tell it the max price you're willing to pay and it will automatically try and keep the price as low as possible. The bot can be a bit unpredictable though.
If you mining BTC don't bother right now. The rental price is WAY too high. It'll crash soon and you'll get a much better rate.
i mean if i did set the price (in password p=0.017), how much i will get, is based on Renting Price or High Renting Price ?
You get paid Currently paying rate which is visible on first page:
Other numbers (right side of the table) are for hashing power buyers and not sellers (miners).
thanks
