What the hell happened last night on SHA-256, with the outrageously high price paid for hash?
And can we do it again?

Go into the scrypt, X11, X13 and put in an order and you will see it happen....go look at the order numbers of the accounts with the most hashing power and you will see that as soon as you over bid them with a large order they will switch to another old account that is higher priced and keep doing it until they drive the price up....they never raise the price of the account, they always switch to a different account....cheers

I will give it try. I'm guessing you mean with 4.7.1?
Yes.
I have been trying to use the service for the last few days, but I am going to go back to the other rental places. There are to many leaches on NiceHash and WestHash and they manipulate the prices. The guys with the order numbers that are extra old and have about 20 accounts and if you over bid they will swap the Hash rate from 1 account to another account and drive the price up till you leave and then they will drop all of there accounts price to a very low hash rate except the low priced ones. I don't want to place an order and then need to check it every 3 minutes. I think it would work a lot better to not let people change hash rates or to not let people open and close orders mutiple times per day. I tried playing the game with them but got tired of it, which I am sure is what they count on. Could be a great place to rent but as of right now its just got to many scammers and leaches.....keith
I haven't experienced this from them, it is still profitable. If you use, parameter p=price , you will be able to solve your problem.

Am trying to update to extranonce to my S3s. I keep getting stuck at step 5 (from the README document). I have no programming expertise with anything. Really old fart here
I downloaded the patch onto my Windows 7 PC.
Is the correct way to write the command or step 5...(ie: the step where you upload the patch to your S3:
WinSCP c:/user/downloads/AntMinerS3-cgminer/cgminer [email protected] :/usr/bin/cgminer

Why don't you download pre-built cgminer? You can download it from http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/ .

Anyone know how to add the extranonce to an sp20 miner.
I think it isn't compiled/built yet. I couldn't find any reply to Nicehash's question/request.

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?

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

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.
.. 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.

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

thank you Muhammed, appreciated.

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.
