well Bitcoin and ALOT of alts use sha256 algo, which the s9 can mine, so even though you think you are mining btc .. your probably mining some alt coin that uses the sha256 algo. Hence the diff lvl is lower then btc and easier to find blocks

Also, just out of curiosity: When mining on a BTC pool, the S9 always shows zero 'FoundBlocks' (as you'd expect) yet, after just a few days mining using NiceHash, there are hundreds of FoundBlocks. Clearly it's not mining BTC, so what is it mining?
Thanks
Thanks
With NiceHash, you earn bitcoins by PPS scheme. It means that you earn bitcoins for every valid share you send.
How many blocks did buyer found is unknown to sellers (you).
You can read more here: https://www.nicehash.com/?p=faq#faqg3
Thanks
Yeah, I figured that. So why is my S9 showing hundreds of FoundBlocks? 
Not that it matters .... just curious. The S9 is working great on NiceHash either way!
And would you happen to know the answer to my question about the price setting?
Thanks again

Trying to figure out the price setting here ....
https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=faq#faqs5
The example given is 4 BTC/GH/Day (which, presumably, is waaaaay out of date to be anywhere near realistic now?).
I have an S9 (13.5 TH/S) that I'd like to have automatically switch to a pool, whenever the NiceHash price is below the pool's average. The S9 averages about 8 mBTC/Day using said pool, so how does that convert?
I'd like the S9 to stay connected to NiceHash most of the time, switching to the alternative pool when the price equates to less than, say, 7.5 mBTC/Day.

How do I prevent nicehashbot from draining all funds in my account.
Does all of my orders have auto renew or what?
Does all of my orders have auto renew or what?
Please see here for a list of all features: https://github.com/nicehash/NiceHashBot#features
NiceHashBot is an open-source tool and can be modified to your needs by anyone. The current implementation is only basic and it simply provides you a way to keep your order with hashing power at a minimum possible price until you cancel it.
You're also welcome to submit ideas for new features here: https://github.com/nicehash/NiceHashBot/issues
Best regards,
NiceHash team.

Hello, I have few nob questions, maybe someone can point me to right answers.
First of all, I can not run or even benchmark on my graphics card (GeForce 770) Equihash (nheqminer) and X11Ghost(ccminer_alexis). Normal X11Ghost works perfectly fine.
Secondly, for my CPU (FX-6300) I see only one algorithm available (CryptoNight (XmrStackCPU), is this normal?

Is there a trick to getting claymore's ETH miner to behave properly on nicehash? I've followed the example in the readme for ETH only mining on nicehash, but all my rigs eventually all crap out randomly when (I'm assuming) nicehash switches between different coins that require different DAGs.
What I mean by crap out, is every cards goes bad at the same time and stops mining, but without actually crashing. I can just restart claymore and be on my way again.
I've always just mined on straight ETH pools and never had an issue.

Report the issue to claymore.
Already have, posted about it in his thread.
So as far as you're aware, there shouldn't be an issue? Guess it must be something on my end if no one else has experienced this.
Haven't mined eth in some time. Did you set the flag that jumps the epoch ahead. Basically forces more into vid ram by setting a future epoch. when it switches coins if someone say was mining etc when you connect and it switches to eth then it would lock up on the dag. Just a thought
Just looked at the readme it's the -eres switch. Not sure how many epochs ethereum is ahead of etc. as long as you can set a high enough value that should work. If eth is over 9 epochs ahead you may have some trouble if you can't specify double digits.
Checked both block explorers I did the calcs. Epoch changes every 30000 blocks. So by my figures both chains are on 112 epoch. The default for claymore is to jump ahead 2 epochs. Wonder if their is another coin people are mining that has a much lower epoch number. Thus creating a small dag file. When you open the miner pay attention to the epoch number and see if that isn't the issue. Surely their isn't a dagger-hashimoto coin with a larger epoch than eth or etc. sorry I couldn't be more help. I don't think the dag size is the issue.

how i connect my equihash miner at your nice hash and which miner i must used???

What pool can I use for mining Bitcoin? I tried AntPool and ViaBtc and in both cases I get warning that pool difficulty is lower than minimum allowed. There is a list of recommended pool on the NiceHash site, but they are mostly for altcoins (like Suprnova). There are no popular Bitcoin mining pools in this list.
You can try ghash.io or p2pool.Personaly i test ghash.io and no problems.

I see that buyers sometimes run contracts that are not profitable. In fact, right now someone in mining X11 (Dash) at a fixed rate 0.03 BTC/GH/day. However, 1 GH can only mine about 0.29-0.3 Dash per day (i.e. 0.022 - 0.023 BTC per day). Mining ROI is -25% - it is more profitable just to buy Dashes.
And for SHA256 people pay a lot more that they can earn. 1 PH pays 0.5457 BTC per day (0.62 with tx fees) and people run fixed contracts at 0.66 which is very weird to me.

Or a sneaky way for someone to launder coins....

Yes, I understand that. But for now I want to get some experience of mining at all, because I'm new to it. I understand that I will not get much (or any) profit from Nicehash, otherwise sellers would mine themselves and not selling their hashpower.
NiceHash gives you access to affordable hashing power. But you as a buyer decide where and when you want to mine. So you have the power in your own hands.
It is very similar to owning your own personal mining farm - but having it on demand.
So it is not NiceHash (the marketplace) itself that gives you any profit. It is the pool, amount of hashing power, global market exchange price, right timing and other factors that influence your profit.
About the sellers. It is much easier for them to mine on autopilot with NiceHash then to deal with exchanges and all that. They want bitcoins and we sure deliver.
Thank you for the explanation. Now I see that I can get profit by mining altcoins there.
But nevertheless, can you point me to the Bitcoin mining pool that would be accepted by Nicehash? I can try every available pool on the network, but that would be mostly a waste of time. I just want to try.

Just mine other cryptos, you might get lucky and that crypto might just suddenly come alive and it doubles and triples and until who knows it goes up. Mining bitcoins will just result in a break even and more likely a loss. Finding better alternatives is a good choice, IMO.

Hi,
My order
2353987
is death.
There is no explanation whatsoever why it's death. I have no idea why. How do I know. There is a delta of -8%. Is this why? However, no money is taken yet. Nothing.

There is explanation: "Remote pool terminated connection." Contact pool operator and ask him why this happened.
