I am guessing you are mining at Nicehash.
You can goto whattomine.com to see the difference in profitability between mining direct and Nicehash marketplace.
With ETH price so high now, that difference is huge almost 15-20%.
My ETH farm mines to ethpool and dwarfpool, and collecting ETH coins back to Coinbase.
Compared this to ZEC mining, I prefer Nicehash because you get paid in BTC upfront without the coin confirmation BS -- I also find the ZEC pools too sluggish and struggles whenever diff level goes up.
