How can NiceHash help you earn more than mining directly?

NiceHash can help you earn more than mining directly by using an additional revenue stream that goes to the sellers (miners) of hashing power. One of the main additional sources is our latest product called EasyMining.

We introduced EasyMining on September 23rd, 2022. Since then, on average, NiceHash payrates were at around 6.4% more than mining directly. There were occasional spikes to even 40% more! Remember that NiceHash is a hashpower marketplace where buyers are competing against each other, that is why the price can fluctuate.

Traditionally, the only source of revenue for miners is blockchain block and transaction fee rewards that are generated by the blockchain network, as a reward for successfully confirming a block of transactions.

NiceHash came up with an alternative solution that adds another source of revenue. Miners mining at NiceHash have now additional source of revenue:

  • Packages sold via EasyMining

What is EasyMining?

EasyMining is a product that allows users to buy a package of hashing power and try to solo mine a block. This gives them an ability to try to confirm the block and get the full block reward. EasyMining is targeted at the general public, and is very easy to use. It requires no hardware and practically zero mining experience to get started.

Is NiceHash compatible with all ASICs and mining farm operations?
Yes, NiceHash is compatible with most modern ASICs like Antminer, Whatsminer, and Avalon. Note that modern ASICs support the AsicBoost protocol only by default and will not work on ordinary SHA256 protocol. You must connect your ASIC to SHA256AsicBoost stratum server.

You can read more about mining at NiceHash as a big mining farm here.

Is KYC or a user account required to mine at NiceHash?
No, neither KYC nor a user account is required to start mining at NiceHash. You can connect to NiceHash in the same manner as you would to any other pool. Read more here.

Will my farm be connected to one order and paid by just that order?
No, a miner (seller) is being paid from a combined bucket of orders. The average of all orders, including hashpower marketplace and EasyMining, is then used.

What reward system does NiceHash use?
NiceHash uses a RTPPS reward system.

Is there enough demand on the buyer side?
Yes, we are confident that there is enough demand. We are currently facing the opposite issue; there is not enough supply for all the buyers.
