Honestly i'm a complete newb, and don't quite know how to calculate the profit from it renting from nicehash, but i can see at easyhash.io that the calculated return on it pr. 1000 hashes is 3.94$. Two days ago at this time i think it was 20x times that.

Mined them with only two RX570's Smiley.
You really did hit the jackpot there, well done! Cheesy
Is there still anything in it today? I've seen Nicehash is paying well still for Cryptonight hash, haven't looked at ETN itself, however.

I mined about 8000 electroneum from launch til cryptopia added it to their exchange. I sold that 8000 electroneum for about 1000$ worth of bitcoin. I transferred some of the bitcoin i made, to nicehash to rent rigs to mine electroneum, and the return was crazy!, sold the elctroneum instantly for whatever price it was trading at, and transferred more bitcoin to nicehash. I repeated the process through the entire day on 2. november, and threw a little more than 1 bitcoin into nicehash altogether. Mining with 12mhs at most Smiley

Now i can sit back and enjoy watching the 3.8 bitcoin i made, litterally only from investing what i made with having mined 8000 electroneum.

Safe to say this was one of the best days of my life. Prior to this I owned around 350$ worth of crypto, that i've spent 2 months mining. Smiley

edit: Needless to say, i skipped work that day, and skipped yesterday to just for the heck of it. SmileySmiley
Well done, buddy! There are still free lunches in crypto, provided you catch them at the right time!

What did you mine those ETN with? Mobile phone or PC?

the diff is bit high, didn't find how to change diff, tried in -xpsw d=60000 and diff_60000 but didn't work.
is it possible somehow?

Just downloaded Nicehash legacy and am getting 2.730 kH/s with 4x 1070s  That seem about right?  Only seem to be using ~30-40% TDP when my limit is set to 70%

Jeez... I hope none of you pool hoppers accidentally get caught out by your pool and have your earnings redistributed to the pool. That'd be unlucky as.

Today the holiday has ended. The rate dropped 3 times. Now the level of profitability again lower than Ethereum in dual mode. I switched their rigs to the standard mode. It is a pity that the party lasted so long. It's like being in a time machine in 2015. It turns out time travel is possible.

Would it be smarter to just mine electroneum? I think thats what everyone is using cryptonight nicehash for.. I just don't know the profitability of mining it vs nicehash.. for now I switched back to mining xmr but may look more into electroneum

Well, that depends on whether you trust electroneum really. Kudos to their marketing, but I'm a bit too thick to understand what it's actually 'for' - as in the problem it's solving over others...

I meant i wonder if it would be more profitable to mine it (electroneum) and sell it asap for btc every payout on the cryptonia exchange than to mine xmr. not interesting in holding the coin itself

For cryptonight, both my gpus and cpu are showing up as 0kh/s on nicehash while they work fine on nanopool. anyone have any ideas whats wrong? my equihash gpu is working on nicehash though

for nicehash cryptonight I'm using amd stak xmr and cpu stak xmr

I was having some connection issues as well. Sometimes Nicehash accepted rates were 1-2kh/s slower than what I was doing on nanopool. I ran it over night and even with the lower accepted hash, I was making more on a daily basis.

Like others have said, we will see how long this party lasts. I'm guessing its done by the weekend.

Hi, was straggling with ETH minnig for a while now ... but now Nicehash-CryptoNight is doing so well I am about to switch ... but i have a problem, i have to run several instances of nicehash on my rigs, one for each GPU in the box, any idea how to make it work with one nicehash instance with more similar but not the same GPU (mostly rx480) ... Any link to similar posts appreciated, Thanks

Dont use the Nicehash software ,

Download SGminer and change the config to mine to nicehash
