Unified BTC Market Now Live

We're introducing a unified marketplace structure to prepare for the launch of USDT-denominated markets. This creates a clearer, more flexible trading environment.

NiceHash Market Changes

What's Changing

We're streamlining our marketplace in two phases: technical consolidation followed by clear branding. This creates a simplified structure today and prepares the foundation for the USDT Market launch in early May.

LAST WEEK • COMPLETED

Market Consolidation

EU and USA markets consolidated behind the scenes — all algorithms unified into a single technical infrastructure.

✓ COMPLETED

TODAY • APRIL 17, 2026

BTC Market Branding

Consolidated market officially rebranded as BTC Market — reflecting Bitcoin settlement and creating space for USDT.

✓ LIVE NOW

EARLY MAY 2026

USDT Market Launch

New dedicated USDT Market with SHA256AsicBoost and Scrypt algorithms, offering stablecoin settlement for buyers who prefer predictable pricing.

Algorithm Availability by Market

Not all algorithms will be available on both markets. Here's the breakdown:

₿ BTC Market

Supports all 20 algorithms: SHA256AsicBoost, Scrypt, SHA256, KHeavyHash, X11, DaggerHashimoto, Equihash, ETCHash, KAWPOW, Autolykos, RandomXmonero, NeoScrypt, ZHash, Eaglesong, BeamV3, Octopus, VerusHash, NexaPow, Alephium, and FishHash.
