I learned that Nicehash was attacked not long ago and that he is trying to restore it. There are a lot of investors falling into debt when Nicehash is attacked. I was a bit puzzled when I heard that.

Investors in NH that are falling into debt?  People who have invested their own money in mining rigs that don't care to learn how to mine singles?  What the hell do you mean? 

If NH raised money to start their company, their investors accepted the risk of investing in NiceHash.  So that's a who the fuck cares right there.

I'd be interested if someone in the know did a round up of all the alternatives and obviously you are catering to people busy with other stuff so that kind of summary is ideal :p   I'm sure any sum up would get views, I post on a few forums slightly aligned to tech etc.    I just wanted to know if kryptex did cpu mining as well because I have an 8 core with 20mb cache and it used to do really well with zero lag so seems a waste not to have it tied to a screensaver type setup when otherwise idle.   They do but which of these is best at capturing the best rate, obviously solo mining on a fast coin can be best but also requires more management, maybe more market risk and hassle.

similar to NiceHash ->>

https://www.kryptex.org/?ref=785b9570

try it, works good to me, the are paying in BTC
lite and full mode
start on windows startup
easy setup
very fast benchmark

There are tons of these mate.
Even ones like MinerGate which have been around for a long time - I would be *VERY* cautious going to these sites as you download their software and literally give them access to mine on your machine, with no guarantees they are going to give you the hashes you have. For all we know they are only paying pennies per hash in comparison.

Dont trust everything you read on these things. They all want to fill the vacuum left by NiceHash.
MiningRigRentals is about the only place I trust.

Well said. I tested several of these some time ago and as you said - you are getting lower H/s. You are "paying" for the convenience of "fire and forget" which ..... is also ok  Grin

Reply from nicehash: Oops, sorry? We promise to do better next time, you can count on that, Cross our hart!
Will never go back to those incompetent scammers again.

They rescheduled my payments and then "sorry, your btc was stolen".

It was their responsibility to store btc in secure place, away from hackers. 100% they stole it.

After the tragic incident... and the positive announcements following the recently bad news, it is very disappointing that NiceHash turn into a scam now.
They're properly working before, right now they are held to be responsible and make it up to the ones who've lost. What now? Huh

Haven't that nicehash stored the miners wallet and fund unto the Cold storage wallet and not a hot wallet? this is what they are claiming on their site when you signup and use the nicehash wallet right? what happen now?

Obviously a blatant lie.

Moreover you all need to consider the small miner payout schedule of around 1 week... Something goes wrong you loose whatever you have mined during 1 week in the worst case. I have changed to an Electroneum pool where I get paid to my wallet every hour. Unless Nicehash changes something about that I will definitely not be going back. How do ya all see that? I lost about 90 USD due to this security breach....

Most mining pools that I know have minimum payouts of like $200-300, to reach that I need way longer than a week.

The pool I'm mining XMR on is paying out at 0.3.  My 6 gpu rig is doing over 0.1 per day, so I'm getting paid out roughly every three days.

Damn, what cards are you mining with?  I'm mining on supportXMR pool as well with 2 RX570's and I'm definitely not getting 0.033 XMR per day (1/3 of your 6 GPU's).  Yours must be hashing a lot faster than mine Smiley  It's going to take me about 22-25 days to reach the 0.3 XMR Payout.

RX Vega 56's ... Over 1900 h/s per card ... Not to be confused with RX560's.

I used to mine at Nice hash 3 -4 months ago , When was a newbie
And I still recommend Nice hash to any newbie out there who doesn't want to spend a lot of time and Just want BTC or Usd in return
It also give u the base of what a gpu should earn .
Anyways  for a site big as Nice hash to be hit shows even in the end of 2017 with all the security protocols and suck Your Funds are never save online always use hardware/paper wallet that is secure and Never store all your funds at one place if they are high
I hope the find the culprit and everyone gets their due share but Reality isn't like fairy tales where everyone has their happy endings

anyone who goes back to using nicehash is a moron and deserves to have there coin stolen again, it happened once. it will happen again especially now that people know that nicehash is a good target. doubt there going to be able to pay back 60 to 78 million dollars any time soon, they don't even make that much a year
Shut the fuck up. You're a fucking idiot. Eat a dick.

says the person whos impressed about nicehash. yet they haven't returned a dime yet to there users
I'm sure you'd like to be tried, convicted and punished by a bunch of assclowns in a chat room huh? "Innocent until proven guilty". It's really better that way than yours. Stop acting like some Totalitarian dictator. Maybe.....just maybe, those guys are trying to run an honest business and they are victims too. How would you like to have your business torn apart by criminals and then be accused of the crime? We all make mistakes. Trust me....I make plenty.

Was thinking that seeds would become the new currency a mistake? Lol ... Sorry, couldn't resist.

I'm in total agreement with you on the NH ordeal.  I know people are pissed off that they lost money, but no one really knows who is responsible.  Just a ton of people making unnecessary accusations.

its pretty clear who is responsible, nicehash for being soooo naïve to leave 78 million dollars worth of coin in a hot wallet that was poorly secured and yall don't blame them? what morons you all are. technically they wernt hacked, someone logged into there NETWORK with one of the developers credentials. for all yall know it was an inside job and someone handed another person the login info.
I find it interesting that some of the top law enforcement and investigative agencies on the planet have not reached the same conclusions as you and THEY actually have access to the forensics and intelligence. Yet, here you are.....infamous keyboard Judge, Jury and Executioner having already SOLVED the Nicehash case. Nothing you've said is based in any confirmed fact. NOTHING. So it's really pretty clear to all who read this thread who the "moron" is. Well, except you of course. This is typical of morons. You're always the last to know. Why......well.....because you're a moron of course.

I was paid by nicehash every week or even later. Now I am mining Electroneum and I get paid constantly every hour or so... This in my opinion is less risky. I lost sbout 90 USD due to the nicehash hack. So why go back to them if they reappear?

Whether Nicehash was hacked I am not sure, that's what the rumors say. One thing I know for sure is that I was one of the miners and my Bitcoin value in Nicehash shows zero.

I believe some companies really hacked but after some time i am reading this kind of news like this.

Nicehash "hacked". You understand what " " means. Maybe they really get hacked but it is too often so I don't believe it anymore.

Was it profitable to them than earning regular commission from thousands of miner then Tongue

I am not accusing them with anything but i'm not believing any hack stories anymore.

Also with a part of 60m $ they can open nicerhash and can get more regular commissions Cheesy
