Can anyone confirm? I mean i like nicehash better than multipool. Easy to use. So if diffeence is not high then why bother.

The thing is I plan to buy from nicehash and sell to multipool. I can't do that if nicehash already pay seller higher than multipool.

Currently I use a miner to mine ethereum straight. The result is 23.7Mh/s.  That is around $2.06 per day.

Let's see if I do it with nicehash.

Besides nicehash anything else? GUI where I can see dollar per day quickly?

Update:

Nicehash pick dagger hashimoto and claim that I am making 1.96 per day. So around 5% less juice.

There is no option to hash nthash at nicehash!!!!

Even though my card definitely can do nthash. Hmm.... Something is wrong here.

Dagger Hashimoto is nthash.

Nicehash pay a bit less than mining on other pools straight. But they switch algo giving you a bit of extra juice.

That being said, is this even true?

I am using multipoolminer now mainly

Can anyone confirm that nicehash does pay more than multipool?

I have a hard time seeing this.

First someone need to order something (I plan to buy from nicehash and sell to multiple actually). Then multipool took 3% from buyers and sellers. And then they still pay more than multipool?

Can anyone confirm?

I noticed that if I compare price from nicehash to multipool it's about the same for most algorithm

Moreover, nicehash is much easier to use I must admit.

However, I am earning $2 at nicehash while whattomine.com says I should be mining $2.5 per day with 480 RX

What is the payout looking like for this site now? I plan on building a rig with a couple R9 290 GPUs.

Today we introduced another advanced feature for GPU miners - Fine tuning with custom speed factors and daily costs. You can now set custom hashing rate factors and even your electricity power consumption as well! This will make sure your miner mines on absolutely most profitable algorithm. You can also configure your miner, for example, to only switch between X11 and X13 (whichever is more profitable) even if globally some other algorithm is more profitable. Visit https://www.nicehash.com/multialgo/#finetuning and play around Wink I'm sure this is one very nice tool for GPU users to play with!

Does NiceHash support payout to P2SH bitcoin addresses? They start with a 3 instead of a 1, so a lot of sites reject them as invalid.

Some good news here:
1.) X13 and Keccak (SHA3) algorithms have been added.
2.) Builds of the brand new sgminer-5 are available: https://nicehash.com/software/#sgminer (more info here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=632503.0); you can use this sgminer for all algorithms, supported by NiceHash (except SHA256, of course).

Thanks for using NiceHash!

how much is the payment per MH now?

I get "Pool requested work restarts" over and over again sometimes lasting for many minutes before getting an accepted share

And is it still worth it for you to use this even with all the "missed work due incessant restarts"?

Try to adjust difficulty to a lower value, see https://nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=faq#faqs7

Ok, but surely it should not take more than 30 minutes to change jobs?

I am using the sph-sgminer supplied by NiceHash and have noticed lots of "Pool requested work restarts"...i don't have this problem mining at other X11 pools with my 280x

anyone else getting same issues with NiceHash?

Completely normal when work/job is changed.

Good news! We've released patched and optimized versions of sph-miner for X11. You can download it here:

We've added X11 algorithm. There are already some orders in place so you can start earning money with your X11 rigs asap, just point your miner to stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:3336. The widely used sph-miner is supported. We will also provide you with optimized patched sph-miner for idlebug fix and extranonce patch. Stay tuned.

Confused on what to set my price at..

So if I have 30 MH's I want to point to NiceHash, how do I determine what I set my p= to???

Can I see a list of orders to see what the offers are?


And since I have MH's will it be something like p=0.004    Meaning I want a least 0.004 BTC per MH per day?


p=4 means if the price they are selling at, which is listed at the top of the page, drops below 4 it will roll over to your other pool.

Something goofy going on with that build.

I am running sgminer 4.1.271 and decided to give your build a shot since I have been hashing with NiceHash the last day or so. I have a set price point with NiceHash being the first pool in my conf file with CoinFu the first failover (as of this morning), followed by Wafflepool, and Clevermining.

For some reason, using the same conf file in the same c:\SGMiner directory, this executable completely skips CoinFu and goes directly to Wafflepool. If I remove all other pools except CoinFu, it just sits at the "awaiting active pool" prompt.

Y'all got something against the CoinFu folks or something?

 

I have this same issue as well. I can't even manually switch to CoinFu using NiceHash's sgminer version on Linux. I reverted back to the original sgminer bin and was able to switch to CoinFu just fine. What gives?

We'll take a look. Obviously CoinFu rejects our stratum protocol extension, I'm sure we'll be able to fix this. Thanks for feedback.

Update: you can solve this easily with pool config.

Just add "no-extranonce-subscribe" : true to the CoinFu pool config

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"
}

Please try and report if it works OK.

BTW: yesterday we released newer builds with some minor bugfixes: https://www.nicehash.com/software/
