Re: 20 GH/s from NiceHash was working as 10 GH/s

Cheers neman, I would just add a quick spot of advice being a fellow NH user - in current days of PH pool issues I myself have found it nearly impossible to run orders above 2 GHs The reason being the current pool settings which will trigger var. diff. into a kind of runaway behavior that ends above...

Re: Downtime this morning

Why only respond to the easiest comment and ignore the rest?

Show the community some respect rather than constant, often obtuse, always stubborn arguments why it's never possible?

Re: Downtime this morning

It seems to me it would be a good idea to close registration to new miners only until you get a handle on this.. Then you could have limited new miners join as you get system stable.. Nobody wants to be having problems for years.. All that will do is to cause accounts to gain value. The only real s...

Re: Downtime this morning

@ Steve; A short pause in registration will not cause accounts to appreciate significantly, and any value that did accumulate would crash the moment registration re-opens. Sorry mate, I cannot accept the logic that such concerns should outweigh the clear and obvious benefit of pausing registration ...

the best help we could use is simply the ability to focus on making the system as fast as possible until the end of the weekend!
Makes sense - good luck guys!

Re: Downtime this morning

Close registration for a while >> get ahead of the curve >> then re-open!

@Tom3,

Steve's guidance is prudent, to hold BCC and wait for a few months.

Re: Why NiceHash is bad for prohashing.

The problem Konov, is that once you set the precedent of giving into attackers rather than fighting back and hardening your solution against abuse, anyone who doesn't agree with one of your business practices will know that you can be coerced. As a NH user myself I admit that I cannot speak for ASIC...
