My guess is somehow given that Coinbase transactions are going to be free for the time being I would ASSUME that Coinbase may be contributing or investing as they stand to lose out considerably if NH doesn't continue their operations.
My rigs are back full time on NH and believe that this was just a security blunder. A massive one... And don't think I am not owned a few bucks that are in limbo.... My logic is they owned it and now are making lemonade so I will try to give them my resources in good faith and wait it out.
Topic: Nicehash site is up... - page 2. (Read 1924 times)
How to received instruction email? I'm trying to log in but still not getting any luck to received email from NH , good to know that they are back online again hope everything went back to normal.
Im a former user and I still cant login. Says I need to check my email to reset my pw and no authorization emails are being sent to do so. (Of course I checked spam and they have always been white-listed)
Anyone else having login issues since their "return"? They owe me quite a few bucks and specifically said it would be paid back by Jan 30th. I guess we will see if they do right thing or its all PR.
From info I got nicehash is searching for investors to cover the lost of stolen btc...I hope all users will get their money back...
Are they now paying to external wallet that above the threshold?
I wonder what percentage of the people will go back to this after what happened.
I already did. You may say why ? Because one of my rigs with modified bios and 6 x RX 570 series is doing 4950 h/s on Monero/Cryptonight algorithm. Paying 26.5 USD daily I guess one of the highest for such configuration and Monero is my favorite algorithm because it consumes less energy.
Same cards on Winminer were doing 3600 h/s or 17 USD daily, that is 270 USD more monthly with Nicehash. I would be stupid to not go back. I think they will not be hacked anymore and store all the coins in cold storage now.
The only thing I disagree is the same min payout, I would love to see 0.005 btc as min withdraw.
anyone who thinks like this noob does, is one stupidly naïve person. they didn't change much of anything. payout amount is the same, id bet all the funds go into a hot wallet still just waiting to get hacked again. so think they will not get hacked again is a stupid thing to think
Calling me noob is something stupid, having built more than 100 boards for many friends and not friends, lately I have done a successful bios modification also of one of the most problematic card and with Hynix memory. Why am I stupid, I make 0.011 btc weekly so max I can lose is one week of mining. I made 76 USD with Winminer in one week, while I am making about 160 USD within a week with Nicehash.
It is called risk taking and not stupid thinking.
Ignore him, he's a douche nozzle. Not worth the effort.
It's possible to have this discussion without name calling.
I don't think the answer is black or white. With NH and pools in general, it's hard to see under the hood. At this point it's an issue of trust.
NH lost $65 mil. How are they going to make that back with a smaller customer base?
No matter how attractive the returns are in rev. 2, I would think that securing your wallets would be the #1 mission critical focus. NH would be a lot more convincing if they hired an experienced operations guy from say coinbase, bittrex et al. This would indicate that they are serious. NH in a way illustrates the idea that people who start companies up, sometimes can't really be the people who run them. The effort to have a decent operation is underestimated.
I guess to put it directly in terms of risk, I'm not convinced there will not be another operational screwup that wipes out any gains.
The numbers in the dashboard have NEVER seemed to have a consistant grasp of reality - always off quite a bit one way or the other compared to the "24 hour" or "12 hour" numbers.
I have ZERO idea where the dashboard and "projected" numbers come from - they seem to be about 50% random factor around the REAL numbers.

Yeah it seems as that I am getting paid what I should it just seemed to me that before the dashboard seemed to be in better check with the miners.
Since last night I have noticed that the NH Client software is reporting much higher numbers than the dashboard. In some cases this is 15-20 bucks / day...
I'm seeing this on 2 of my accounts with them.
Can someone please confirm that this is occurring on their side as well?

Probably their normal "wide swing" on payout as the market shifts.
The miner is semi-realtime, the web page is a snapshot.

https://ahashpool.com/ there is a download link to an easy to use algo switching script on the main page and they auto converts to BTC.
Basically the same thing nicehash is doing for you, you just have to do a little bit of setup in the batch file to set your wallet, how often you want to check for a more profitable algo, and what algos you want to cycle through. This script can be used with other auto exchange pools as well like http://zpool.ca/ with little effort.
It's not mine, but I've been using it for a few weeks making good rates on my GPU rigs.

I hope NiceHash will crack down and crash again so i could get more profit from my rig... this service is a cancer for cryptocurrencies and mining.
yes the site is up but lots of people are now saying its not good to mine there they will loose lots of miners because they put a higher
withdrawal rate it will plunged for sure, but what can i say i mine der before ,
although its nice but currently its not the best site to mine or place,
maybe lets just focus on other mining sites

With the lack of information about what really happened regarding the hack, I don't know how anyone can trust these guys right now.
Also to clarify, they said they will let you know what they are doing with old balances by Jan 31st, not that you would be paid your old balance by then.

What's odd is the Statistic page does seem to be showing more accurate numbers. Hmm...
Rigs show $58 and Dashboard shows $36
Is this how they are going to repay everyone??

where is more profit?
l3+ shows 17$ in 24 hours and other pools profit is 20-22
l3+ shows 17$ in 24 hours and other pools profit is 20-22
Scrypt on Nicehash at this time is LOWER profit than mining Litecoin via a pool like LiteCoinPool.
This is a reversal of the situation for 2-3 months before the hack, when Nicehash was paying out a LOT more for Scrypt hashrate than mining Litecoin directly, and usually more than mining any of the other Scypt altcoins.
The ONLY stuff I have pointed at Nicehash at this point is the cryptonight CPUs and my single Vega - which I had not found a replacement home for anyway as far as Monero mining went, so if their income gets lost it's no real loss to me other than a few watts extra power usage (and somewhat fewer DNet RC5-72 blocks crunched).
Very low risk (the extra electric usage), potential some gain, ONLY reason I'm using them at all for the next month and change.
My "old mining income" tab thing IS showing what appears to be the "correct" amount, but I didn't watch my Nicehash balance every hour or such so it could be off a LITTLE.
that's why calculator shows 17$
