NiceHash mining progress

With the stable rate of btc at more than $2500+ i decided to use my old gpu (R9 270) again.. and not bad.. im earning more than $5 so far using 2 GPUs (RX 470 and R9 270)

im currently mining with equihash algo (mining zcash), and i didnt use auto mining method, i'm using claymore's zcash miner.

here's my current stat

latest payment (after the new design of the page.. and love the new design)
0.01848898 BTC received = $ 48.39 USD (at current rate)

if you want to mine with CPU or older gpu that can't handle equihash or dagger hashimoto, cryptonight might be a good solution, you can point your hardware to nicehash or minergate.

try this profit calculator if you need to get an earning estimation using your hardware (only decent-powerful hardware on the list)

if you use eobot, just generate btc address there and use it on nicehash, so you can start using it to buy cloud power or to buy coins and start exchanging for profit.

about nicehash payment method (as of May 23rd, 2017):

• Once per day for nicehash-wallet unpaid balances, greater than 0.001 BTC.
• Once per day for external-wallet unpaid balances, greater than 0.1 BTC.
• Once per week for external-wallet unpaid balances, greater than 0.01 BTC.
• Payments for external-wallet balances less than 0.01 BTC will be (temporary) suspended due to unsustainable transaction fees.

nicehash-wallet means you need to register to nicehash and get your btc address there, remember that to send from this address to your personal / desired address you will need to pay fee, personally i use external address directly.

GPU mining, use your own hardware to mine coins

Just a simple guide and information about using GPU to mine.
i previously use R9 270 (max tdp 150 watt) but switched to RX 470 (max tdp 125 watt)

                                   gpu-z stat and claymore's zcash miner ver. 9 running

now i mostly use equihash algo (mining zcash), but if its rate down, i switch to cryptonight (xmr) and or dagger-hashimoto (ethereum)

there are many mining pools out there, but using pool we have to do extra works.. we need to set up wallet address (although mostly exchanger address will do) and then we need to trade the coins into btc (if you're a trader or like to keep coins first for a while then using pool is right choice for you)
but if you're lazy to trade and just want btc directly.. i can recommend nicehash.. it's quite straightforward.. just install.. do benchmark and it will auto choose the right algo for your hardware (both cpu and gpu)
now most of the time i also use nicehash's pool, but not using their software.. i use claymore's zcash miner --> more profitable than nheqminer
sometimes i also use minergate (cryptonight pool) and also suprnova.
minergate also easy to use.. but ppl mostly just mine bcn or xmr there

at current rate.. my Rx 470 can get me around $.9 - $1.3 daily, same card can result in vary earning.. it depends on clock speed, temp, etc.. if you live in a cold place.. it's useful to run a miner.. because it will runs in cool temp and you get heat from it :)  im running mine at around 60C temp with 66% fan speed, getting 180-ish sols/s.. if i set it to 80C i probably can get 200+ sols/s

main thing to consider if you want to use your GPU to mine is electricity.. if you have free electricity.. no matter what your hardware is.. just try to run it.. even 1 cent daily is still profit :D
but.. if you're paying for electricity.. calculate it first.. and make sure your earning is bigger than electricity cost.

im in a lazy mood.. so no screenshot on this post.. if you need or want more info just tweet me, comment.. or find me on eobot chat :)
