Good news for ASIC buyers (and unfortunately not so good for GPU miners ).

@Nicehash staff, I think you are abusing of the stratum method "client.reconnect". Why are you sending this? Is it really needed? It adds trouble to the stratum/tcp connection and some extra delays.
Reconnects are needed, because the stratum protocol does not implement a way to change special extranonce parameters except for on first connection. Switching between other pool's relays requires changing these parameters. You can use the patches or patched compiled cgminer that nicehashdev has posted and are available on git. This implements a new command in the stratum protocol so that the reconnects are not necessary.True, you can simply download pacthed cgminer and sgminer binaries here: https://www.nicehash.com/software and you'll get rid of these issues and better performance on NiceHash (and the same performance on other pools as if you would be using other non-nicehash cgminer/sgminer builds).
BTW: Some pools ignores connection from our extended cgminer and sgminer. We added an option to disable these "advanced features" for pools not supporting this features. One of these pools is CoinFu.
Just add "no-extranonce-subscribe" : true to the pool config for pools, that doesn't support extranonce-subscribe
Example:
Code:
{
"name" : "NiceHash Scrypt",
"url" : "stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:3333",
"user" : "btc_address",
"pass" : "x",
"algorithm" : "scrypt",
"nfactor" : "10"
},
{
"name" : "CoinFu",
"url" : "stratum+tcp://pool.coinfu.io:3333",
"no-extranonce-subscribe" : true,
"user" : "myrig_btc_address",
"pass" : "myemail",
"algorithm" : "scrypt",
"nfactor" : "10"
}Keep in mind: this only applies it you're using our cgminer and sgminer builds from https://www.nicehash.com/software !

Hi, will be @ your multipool any x11 soon? Any plans and if yes when do u think it will happen thx 
. Btw summer is comming and it will get much hotter

To add better support for NiceHash stratum severs for better efficiency. If you have good experience with any existing cgminer build for gridseeds that is working fine with NiceHash, please let me know which one are you using.
Please patch this cgminer for Gridseeds. It allows individual frequency tuning for each of the Gridseeds one has. https://github.com/girnyau/cgminer-gc3355

So does anyone know why cudaminer isn't supported here. It's worked for me for a while and never seems to really fail but my numbers on the site don't appear to be counting all my power lately. I should be mining at around 2,200 Kh/z but it's only counting around 1,200 atm and seems to be this low all the time lately. My miners are mining just fine but the only thing that looks fishy is that my sgminer with my 7970 is always saying request work restart. Is that normal at all? Trying to figure out what's wrong here. So inconsistant!! It always ran at a constant rate when I was mining DOGE so does that mean it's not my miner?

Scrypt: 2.10 GH/s @ 3.84 BTC/GH/Day
I'm all scrypt and I have 30 Mhs - so - what could I earn/day selling you my hash?
I'm all scrypt and I have 30 Mhs - so - what could I earn/day selling you my hash?
Pretty simple ... 30 * 3.84/1000 = 0,1152 BTC per day at current rate (3.84 BTC/GH/Day).
ok - that's what I came up with also - just wanted to verify - thank you.

what was the nature and reason for the patch - I've been using cgminer and love it because it's got a monitoring api

any reason to switch to cpuminer for my seeds and blades?
No. Who is talking about cpuminer anyway?
just saw your posts and asked - I am not working with you guys
but I do have a question. I visited your site and saw this:

We've already patched David Bartle's fork: https://github.com/dtbartle/cgminer-gc3355
See commits from May 07, 2014: https://github.com/dtbartle/cgminer-gc3355/commits/master
If you're familiar with the build process I welcome you to compile your own builds from this GIT repo (https://github.com/dtbartle/cgminer-gc3355.git) and then test if your ASIC miners are working properly with NiceHash (you should get almost no rejects from US East or EU). We'll also provide windows and linux binaries for https://github.com/dtbartle/cgminer-gc3355 in the near future.

I would rather prefer if payments (for providers) be made only once per day. With the current rates, having payments 4 times per day only produces dust (or near-dust) for 98% of the miners (that is, everyone apart from the top 15 miners with huge hashrates), and so we will all end up paying huge tx fees for using those btc in the future.
kenshirothefist, would changing that be something you could consider?
Thanks for all the rest of the good work!

This has already been explained in the past. Payments are sent in a single transaction for all miners, thus the transaction fee is negligible. Furthermore, transaction fees for outgoing payments are covered by NiceHash and are included in the NiceHash 2% service fee (all costs are covered in the 2% service fee). We want the providers to be paid fast, that's why we want to keep multiple payments per day. Anyway, isn't that the whole point of Bitcoin - to make a quick and seamless currency flow?

Update to NiceHash sgminer and reconnects will not happen.
Well I did updated to NiceHash sgminer today and have the same issue again.
Any more suggestions?

What do you mean? Cudaminer is trying every 15 seconds and failing, what can I possibly do to force it to connect?
We've forced some DDoS rules that might ban some of the legit users, unfortunately. We're being hit by smart DDoS with fake miners and we have to fine tune our filter to not ban the legit miners. Please, send me you IP to PM, we'll investigate why your IP is banned. Thanks!
Wow, that's just totally fucked up. Why don't you look up legitimate users in your database, you know - ones that were SUCCESSFULLY SUBMITTING WORK FOR WEEKS, and unban them?
BTW what happened to Scrypt-N doesn't seem like "some of the legit users", more like 100% were banned:
May 07, 2014, 08:09:23 AM
Both Scrypt and Scrypt-N ports seem to be down for me, although stats show other miners mining. Am I banned? 
Takes me about 15 minutes to connect. otherwise it just says pool is down, persevere with it, you will get mining.

SGMiner actually, But yeah, I just imagined the stratum was overloaded.

Scrypt rate is dropped significantly.I think no more profitable coin to mine.
No pump of the day right now, so all the scrypt mining profitability is close to or below LTC (king of scrypt). May 07, 2014, 03:10:36 AM
