You cannot control the hashprice, but you absolutely can control your hardware. NiceHash Firmware lets you underclock heavily to hit maximum efficiency when margins are tight. Take a look at the S21 Pro data: you can drop it to a -10% underclock to hit a sweet spot of 13.79 J/TH, or go all the way down to a -50% profile pulling just 1674W if you have strict power limits to manage. Stop running stock settings and start tuning your ASICs to survive the dip. [https://nicehash.com/firmware](https://t.co/I1f3IGYNYN)

My argument is that Eth isnt improving.... its that Eth cut out all the little guys/retail and secondary markets. Miners, nicehash, L2s that aggreggated transaction... all cut out for staking and low fees. Fees dont need to be near 0. If you are charging near 0, that means you feel your service is worth near 0. Whales start their own pools and take a 14-30% rake on the rewards. But what reason does retail have to be interested? a 2% reward on something that has dumped 70% against bitcoin over the last 4 years? Bonds are like 4%, at some point bonds were 7.5%. Eth needs to get retail involved again somehow. I think a decent reward would be a good start.

I finally cashed out and closed my account after letting my account sit inactive for a number of years. I probably lost half of what I had due to inactivity fees but still walked away with a at least a little bit of profit. About 500 bucks. I mined with my gtx 1070 back in the day for maybe a month or two when BTC was around 10-14k. Closing and withdrawing the funds to coin base was a real pain in the ass because I had to reset my password and do the kyc verification process. eventually figured it out after the weekend and made my exit. Glad I went through with cashing out on crypto. That’s my story. Good luck everyone!

I have completed the development of the XMR pools optimized for mining with NH. I have taken it upon myself to rent hashpower and contribute with my own equipment to test their stability. I have already managed to mine more than 10 blocks solo. Anyone interested in using our mining tools may do so, as they are now publicly available. The platform is called OwnBlock. (Use google) Good luck, and may you mine many blocks. — Note: The current fee for the solo pools is 2%. Yes, it is higher than other solo pools, and users can also avoid this fee by mining against their own node. However, this is designed for miners with high hashrate who need to use NiceHash or another provider. The Stratum software is proprietary and optimized for high-performance mining. We have developed it entirely from scratch, with our own needs as professional miners in mind. I appreciate your feedback so we can keep improving the UI interface.

We recently introduced the option to receive your mining payouts directly in USDT, in addition to BTC: 🔹 Skip the BTC-to-stablecoin trade and the exchange fees that come with it 🔹 Lock in the value of your earnings instantly 🔹 Keep your monthly OpEx - electricity, infrastructure, salaries - fully predictable Prefer to keep stacking BTC? Nothing changes for you - this is simply an option in your payout settings. Same hashrate. Same mining. Your choice of payout. Learn how to set it up 👉 [https://nicehash.com/support/mining-help/asic-mining/how-to-get-paid-in-usdt](https://nicehash.com/support/mining-help/asic-mining/how-to-get-paid-in-usdt)

The numbers prove it. Take a look at the data from the last 90 days. Our payrates averaged 0.88% higher than the standard FPPS Index. When you connect your hashrate to NiceHash, you are selling it on a marketplace where buyers are willing to pay a premium. Stop settling for standard pool rewards and let the open market boost your daily profits. 🔗 Connect your miners → [https://www.nicehash.com/asic-mining](https://www.nicehash.com/asic-mining)

I'm looking for advice from anyone who has been through something similar. Over 6 months ago, NiceHash placed my transactions on hold due to an Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) check involving 0.03084913 BTC. I submitted all requested documents, answered every question, and fully cooperated with their compliance team. The strange part is that my account still shows: "Your transactions are on hold until you complete the EDD Check. Please provide additional information. Learn more." https://preview.redd.it/678qqo6rs75h1.png?width=1901&format=png&auto=webp&s=a27c2ecfcb1cda87edd3ae1de188146b45ba79f6 The problem is that I already provided the additional information months ago. I had similar check with them a couple of years ago and similar documents worked fine, there were no issues. Since then, I have received emails saying my case was escalated to an external review and that they cannot provide a timeline or meaningful updates. Meanwhile, my funds remain inaccessible. BTC has moved significantly during this period, and the value of the funds has dropped substantially since the hold started. I have been forced to watch this happen without any ability to access, sell, or move my own funds. At this point, I'm honestly struggling to understand how a process can remain in this state for more than 6 months while the platform still displays a message telling me to complete an EDD check that was completed long ago. Has anyone here experienced something similar with NiceHash? * How long did your review take? * Were your funds eventually released or returned? * Did anyone involve a lawyer, regulator, or financial authority? * Are there any legal options available when funds remain locked for this long with no timeline and no meaningful updates? I would appreciate any advice from people who have dealt with similar situations. At this point, it honestly starts feeling like a scheme. My wallet has been locked for over 6 months under a review with no timeline, no meaningful updates, and no way for me to verify what is actually happening. Meanwhile, my funds remain inaccessible, and I have no visibility into what is being done with them or when this process will finally end. What concerns me most is the complete lack of transparency. As an EU customer, I would expect a regulated financial institution to provide at least some level of visibility into a process that has restricted access to my funds for more than half a year. Instead, I receive generic responses while the situation remains unchanged. This is starting to feel less like a transparent compliance process and more like the kind of business practice that should raise serious concerns.

SHA256AsicBoost miners can now assign individual machines to either payout currency. 🔹Cover fiat costs directly with USDT earnings 🔸Keep BTC exposure where it makes sense for your operation 🔹No conversion layer - native USDT payouts.

For the last few days, SHA256AsicBoost miners using USDT payouts on NiceHash have consistently outperformed BTC payouts: May 18: +12.36% -> today! May 17: +8.67% May 16: +5.65% May 15: +4.41% in favor of USDT!  We launched USDT payouts just last week.. Miners who switched are already earning more.  See live marketplace stats here: [https://nicehash.com/algorithm/sha256asicboost](https://nicehash.com/algorithm/sha256asicboost)

I had a NiceHash mining account back in 2017 and recently remembered it. I’m trying to recover whatever BTC/mining balance may have been left on the account. The issue is that when I tried to use **Forgot Password** with the email I used back in 2017, I never received a password reset email. Since I couldn’t recover it that way, I signed up on the current NiceHash platform using that same email address. Now I can log in, but the account looks completely new. I don’t see any old wallet balance, mining history, unpaid mining balance, transaction history, or repayment-program info. I’m trying to figure out whether: \- I accidentally created a brand-new account instead of recovering the old 2017 account. \- My old account was never migrated to the new platform. \- My old balance was affected by the 2017 NiceHash hack/repayment program. \- I missed some repayment or migration deadline. \- My old account may have been compromised or withdrawn from. \- There is any way NiceHash support can still look up the historical account tied to my email/mining address. Has anyone dealt with this before? Should I contact support with the original email, old mining addresses, wallet addresses, or transaction IDs if I can find them? Also, is there a specific way to ask NiceHash to check whether the current account is separate from the old platform account? Any help is appreciated. I’m not sure if the funds are gone, if I missed a deadline, or if I just created a fresh account that isn’t connected to the old one.

We just launched USDT payouts on NiceHash. Before you ask "isn't this just auto-converting BTC?" — no, and here's the technical breakdown. Who can use this right now: SHA-256 AsicBoost miners. If your ASICs support SHA-256 AsicBoost, you can connect to the USDT stratum endpoint today. More algorithms are planned. What most platforms do: Mine in BTC → auto-convert to USDT at market rate → send USDT. You're still exposed to BTC/USD at conversion time. It's a convenience feature, not a different product. What NiceHash built: A fully independent USDT hashrate marketplace running in parallel to the BTC marketplace. Separate order books. Real price discovery in USDT. Buyers post USDT-denominated hashrate orders. You connect your SHA-256 AsicBoost rig to the USDT stratum endpoint and get paid directly in USDT - no conversion step. How to set it up: \- Confirm your ASICs support SHA256AsicBoost \- Connect to the USDT stratum endpoint (details at nicehash.com) \- Run alongside your existing BTC setup - split hashrate or go full USDT If your electricity and hosting costs are USDT-denominated, your revenue should be too. This is a real treasury tool for serious operations. The BTC marketplace is unchanged. USDT is fully additive. More algorithm support coming. 👉 [https://www.nicehash.com/my/mining/rigs](https://www.nicehash.com/my/mining/rigs)

A fully independent USDT Spot Market. Separate order book. Separate hashrate pool. Real price discovery in stablecoins. No conversions, no workarounds, no compromise. ▫️ Miners - connect to the USDT stratum. Get paid in USDT every 4 hours. Predictable revenue, zero BTC volatility. Switch back to BTC anytime. ▫️ Hashrate buyers - buy hashrate directly in USDT. Lock your costs in stablecoins from order to settlement. No pre-conversion. No BTC exposure. Two markets. One marketplace. You choose. We're starting with our existing NiceHash community - if you're already a user, request early access today.

Big changes are happening at NiceHash! As of today, April 17, 2026, our EU and USA markets are fully consolidated behind a single technical infrastructure: the BTC Market. The Roadmap: TODAY: BTC Market branding is live. EARLY MAY: USDT Market launch! The upcoming USDT Market will allow buyers to use stablecoins for more predictable pricing and easier management.

I want to share a situation I’ve been able to verify step by step, so others don’t fall into the same issue. Initial problem I rented hashing power from a user on Mining Rig Rentals who claimed to own their own rig. However, I started experiencing: - Frequent disconnections - Unstable hashrate - Inconsistent performance This raised suspicion, so I decided to investigate further. While analyzing traffic directly on my pool, I detected login packets like this: {"id":1,"method":"login","params":{"login":"MRR","pass":"x","agent":"NiceHash/1.0.0"}} This clearly shows the mining client identifying itself as coming from NiceHash. At this point, it was already suspicious, but I wanted to confirm it beyond doubt. I performed the following test: - I created an order on NiceHash for RandomX and rented essentially all available hashing power. - This caused other marketplace orders (including the MRR user) to stop receiving miners. - At that exact moment, the hashing power from the MRR user dropped significantly / disconnected. Then: - I released the NiceHash order (freeing the global hashing power). - Immediately after, the MRR user started delivering hashing power to my pool again. - Once again, I detected connections showing a NiceHash user-agent. - The traffic was routed via MRR’s Germany Stratum. (eu-de04.miningrigrentals.com) This makes the situation clear: - The seller is not operating their own rig - They are reselling hashing power from NiceHash - Their availability depends directly on NiceHash market conditions When renting hashing power, the expectation is: 1 - You are renting from a real rig owner 2 - The provider has control over the hardware 3 - Performance is stable and predictable Instead, this setup introduces: - Instability (disconnects, fluctuations) - Lack of control - Misrepresentation of the service Please be careful and do not fall for this kind of setup. I have already reported this to Mining Rig Rentals and Nicehash, although I do not expect any action. If anyone else has seen similar behavior, it would be useful to compare findings.

Impressive efficiency (down to 9.45 J/TH) - but returns still depend on where you mine. With NiceHash: 👉 Sell hashrate to the highest bidder in real time 👉 Often 2–3% higher earnings vs FPPS 👉 BTC payouts every 4h Same machine. Better optimization.
