ZelHash and Autolykos are now fully supported in NiceHash Miner!
Dear NiceHash miners!
As some of you might have already noticed, ZelHash and Autolykos algorithms are now fully supported in NiceHash Miner 3.0.7.0 and above!
If you are using NiceHash Miner 3.0.7.0 or a newer version and your GPU supports the algorithms, you should already see both of these algorithms in the benchmark tab.
If you do not see the algorithms and your GPU should support it, make sure that you have at least one plugin with ZelHash and Autolykos support. You can check your NiceHash Miner version in Settings > About tab.
Recommended plugins (3rd party miners) for Autolykos and ZelHash:
- LolMiner
- NBminer
Autolykos is primarily used by Ergo coin. You can read more about Ergo here.
If you wish to learn more about Flux, a coin that uses ZelHash algorithm, watch the latest NiceTalk episode where we hosted Daniel Keller, co-founder of Flux.
Both ZelHash and Autolykos algorithms have been supported by NiceHash for some time now, but due to the potential risk of 51% attacks, we decided not to add them to NiceHash Miner straight away. You can read more about it here.
As always, feel free to join our community and share your thoughts! You can chat with NiceHash representatives and thousands of other miners in our Discord server and subreddit.
