Q: What steps will NiceHash take to regain its customers trust?

A: The support we have received from our community during this crisis has been immense. We are truly moved by the tens of thousands of messages from our community of miners. We are taking all the necessary steps to re-establish our systems with bullet-proof security protocols, and enable miners to start earning money again.

We understand why everyone is upset, and we are truly sorry. We are taking responsibility and want to demonstrate the openness and transparency which is the cornerstone of the world in which we work.

We know we have to build up trust again, we know that, but the overwhelming majority of our community of nearly 750,000 registered users have been very supportive and want us to get the site up and running so they can start making money, mining and leasing again.

It will take time but we are working on a solution to ensure all users are reimbursed. That is clearly a key concern for our users, and we understand this, we are not running away from our responsibilities. As soon as we have a plan in place we will update all users on our intended solution, and we’re sorry for any inconvenience which has been caused.

We’re going to make sure that we learn from this and come back even stronger and safer.

Q: What’s the likelihood of the company covering more than $60m in losses? Are you able to compensate users?

A: We fully intend to make this right. It’s a matter of deep concern to us and we’re working hard to rectify the matter in the coming days. We’re working on a solution to ensure that all users are reimbursed. These things are delicate matters, and take time, so we would ask our community to be patient while we get this fixed and fully investigated. As soon as we have a full plan in place we will communicate it to our users and all those affected

Interesting read.  But nonetheless I will be gobsmacked if they actually do reimburse 70 million dollars.  I think it highly likely this is an exit scam and they are just saying this  to give themselves more time to get away.  I really can't see money coming back.  Nor do I believe they have received "tens of thousands of messages" that are supportive.  Call me a cynic, but I lost around $3k in nicehack and have written it off in my mind as gone.  $70 million is a lot of money that can tempt even those not generally inclined towards dishonesty.

But I would be so happy to be wrong!

When is the class-action lawsuit getting started?

I saw this in twitter:

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DQ91uSSUIAAdOpb.jpg

So, can you explain how you get hacked cold wallets ?

Oh my god!
Another proof for exit Scam.
We saw their faces.
We know where they are and we know who they are.
Someone call Police. We have to bring them to court.
I think if we all do Lawsuit together we'll get back our money sooner.
We need a campaign right now
This is a legal way for getting back the money. but If it does not work we can call Mafia for getting back our money in illegal way.


What are you talknig about? did you guys read CEO speaks at wikitribune?

Seems i was wrong like you but More info for you

I'm very sorry for each and every satoshi anyone lost in this journey, however, let me share you a piece of advice even though it's a bit too late...

Next time you think to "invest" something into project related in any way with Balkan people, just don't.
Close the tab.
Shut down the computer.
Go away.
Forget about the project forever.
Never forget about NOT INVESTING INTO BALKAN SCAMS.

(For those who have no idea what "Balkan" is: https://www.google.com/search?q=balkan&oq=balkan&aqs=chrome..69i57j0l5.782j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8)

Also, DON'T INVEST INTO BALKAN SCAMS fellas, like seriously...

No but I can. It’s quite simple.  The coins are not stolen. They sit happily hidden away only to the knowledge of those two idiots in the video.  They will hide it take a couple years in jail and then ride out into the sunset.  It’s new crypto scam. Hell look at karpeles.  Justice system my ass.  Just another way for the rich to keep their hold over us plebs

Stultorum infinitus est numerus
I am curious, what will this platform do? after the 4000+ BTC issue was stolen and caused the world uproar
Tell that they have increased their security a lot and no such thing will ever happen again, attempt to track down the "hackers" and just moving on and keeping the system up for more miners to join constantly. Easy.

"YOUR bitcoins were stolen?" No NiceHash YOUR bitcoins were stolen, not ours
On Nicehash latest update, it says
"Your bitcoins were stolen and we are working with international law enforcement agencies to identify the attackers and recover the stolen funds. We understand it may take some time and we are working on a solution for all users that were affected."
Hell no! My bitcoins were deposited on you; and so, it's YOUR bitcoins that were stolen. I can feel your problems, but I care about my problems more!
I don't know how much money you have spent on your security; I can't know, I don't care. I don't know if this was an inside job; I don't know; I don't care.
I TRULY am sorry for your loss, you were a good service; but note this, it was YOUR money that was stolen NiceHash, NOT the users. And it's completely on you. So I am DEMANDING my funds, not "wishing" for it to be paid back.
https://www.reddit.com/r/NiceHashHack/comments/7jii7s/your_bitcoins_were_stolen_no_nicehash_your/

I don't care when they would come back. actually i don't care If they want to come back or they don't. The only important matter is how they deal with our stolen money? It was Nh's fault and They are fully responsible. i Lost so many dollars here as buyer almost $4000.


Why sellers should sell mining power at NH when there will be no buyers? I migrated to miningrigrentals.com. I'll stay here until NH repay our stolen money. They should have a good strategy and an excellent solution for buyers if they want to be Great again.

Have anyone noticed that MRR pool at miningrigrentals.com is offline ever since the NiceHash hack? Were they just pointing miners there? Or even worse: are they related?
They were redirecting hash, yes.  I noticed a direct payout price correlation on numerous occasions.  I do not believe they are officially affiliated, however.

This is a good article that i'll linked below

I like 3 parts

The hacker(s) involved would have to have known quite well the internal systems in order to pull this all off. If we take a closer look at the way in which all the bitcoins were extracted, the first coins were sent out on 2017-12-06 05:05:10 and the last coins were sent out on 2017-12-06 08:42:03. Essentially, regardless of the time zone, it took nearly four hours. This entire time, the system admins didn’t notice anything? How could that possibly be. A platform that deals in such high volume of transactions doesn’t have any bells that ring whenever transactions weighing around 1,000 bitcoins is sent in time intervals? Just look at the blockchain transaction history of that bitcoin address and tell me that the payment time intervals don’t look suspicious.

Matjaz was arrested and found guilty in 2010, here's an article that details all of it. What is this guy doing as the CTO of Nicehash? Very suspicious how he was arrested in 2010, but Nicehash was created in 2014 (that of which he was a core developer to). So now we know that the CTO behind Nicehash has involvements in Darkode...There is a possibility that this was all an inside job no doubt.

This could very well be an exit scam

-Why they never point to bitcointalk thread in their site? like btc-e.com?
Because the smartest people are here and people made so many negative comments here.


-How react to exit scam?
Tell mafia about it and pay to mafia for getting your money back from scammers or even hackers.


-How nicehash react to this incident?
They don't care it, Like nothing happened. they only care about their site and patching their site back together and start making money again.

-How their social media works? for example Twitter?
They comment #nicehashminer every five minutes, but they answer one of our questions about money/hack/future every 48h once.

A vivid discussion arose among Bitcoin community about the new Bitcoin XT. Bitcoin XT is a patch set on top of Bitcoin Core, with a focus on upgrades to the peer to peer protocol.

Since NiceHash is operating as a proxy between sellers (miners) and buyer's pools, we are not running our own wallet. That said, we are not using neither the standard Bitcoin Core client or the new Bitcoin XT client for the NiceHash service itself.

That said, mining on our service is not affected by the changes that the Bitcoin XT or any other new Bitcoin client might bring. Furthermore, if you are a buyer of hashing power you can buy hashing power and direct it to any kind of SHA256 pool - weather this pool is using the standard Bitcoin Core or the new Bitcoin XT.

Our online wallet for deposits and managing funds for purchasing hashing power is operated by BitGo and funds are fully insured by BitGo. Since BitGo's wallet is offered as a service, we have no influence on what kind of Bitcoin client is chosen and used by BitGo. Of course we fully trust in BitGo's professional service on choosing the best and most secure underlying infrastructure and technologies, including the back-end Bitcoin client/wallet.

Last but not least we would like to say that we strongly believe in Bitcoin as technology and currency and are confident that the community and users will consolidate and choose the best and most appropriate Bitcoin client(s).

Thank you for using our service and keep on hashing!

Best regards,
NiceHash team


Thanks man.
This is more than a proof that We are facing with a exit scam. We should report to the relevant authorities and law enforcement for making them stop.


It's the more likely scenario, unfortunately. They might come back but the money though, every statement, pre-recorded stream or interview has been totally evasive when it comes to that.


www.miningrigrentals.com is growing fast.

Many miners and buyers are coming here. Help each other to making a big community in miningrigrental

They are reliable and they have been online for years.

NiceScam is done for me and others.

And he is still in silent.


busy recovering from hookers and coke.   Wink    Who knows.  When you deal with wild west scenario i can only imagine you are dealt with in the same manner.  NO?  

Must suck to have to live looking over your shoulder.     Id say that lessons are hopefully learned but with the amount in the hot wallet its obvious that nothing was learned.

Look at it on the bright side, on their official twitter now they want their nicescam drones to show off their mining rigs.
