There are different reasons, here are a couple of them:

• BTC Payouts - This allows for buyers to pay in BTC for hashrate. For example, you could be selling KawPow (Ravencoin) hashrate and receive payment in BTC instead of Ravencoin.
  
• Algorithm Versatility - Buyers use the algorithm hashrate to mine different coins (like NeuroAI, Ravencoin, CLORE) and handle switching between these for sellers. This simplifies mining and ensures you're always selling to the highest bidder, which could mean mining the most profitable coin on that algorithm.
  
• High Demand for Hashrate - Some buyers particularly seek out hashrate for reasons such as taking risks on solo mining. They may bid higher for available hashrate, resulting in better payouts than traditional pool mining.
  

Hello BitcoinTalk Community,

We're excited to announce a significant development in the mining industry from NiceHash - the introduction of the term RTPPS (Real Time Pay Per Share)! This innovative approach builds on the familiar PPS (Pay Per Share) system, taking it a step further to better meet the needs of modern miners.

What is RTPPS?

RTPPS stands for Real Time Pay Per Share. It's our unique twist on the well-known Pay Per Share model. This system is specially designed to enhance the mining experience by offering real-time rewards for miners. It's a game-changer in the mining world, providing unprecedented flexibility and freedom in how miners operate.

Why RTPPS?

Our RTPPS model is more than just a payout system; it's a testament to our commitment to improving the mining industry. It allows miners to buy and sell hashrate in real time, giving them more control over their operations. This approach not only benefits individual miners but also contributes to broader bitcoin adoption.

Key Benefits:

• Real-time rewards: Get paid for your mining efforts as they happen.
• Flexibility: Buy and sell hashrate on your terms.
• Improved mining experience: A modern system for the modern miner.

Join the Revolution:

This is an exciting moment for us at NiceHash and for the entire mining community. We're proud to be leading the charge in evolving mining practices, and we invite you to be a part of this journey. To learn more about RTPPS and how it stands to revolutionize the mining industry, visit our detailed blog post:

Introducing RTPPS: Unique Mining Reward System

We're eager to hear your feedback and see how RTPPS will empower your mining operations. Let's pave the way to a more efficient and rewarding mining future together!

Best,
The NiceHash Team

You don't need KYC for mining, only for buying hashpower. We also recently added a feature to auto withdraw mining earnings where you can set an external wallet.

Kaspa miners can take advantage of the NiceHash kHeavyHash stratum to sell their hashrate. You can mine anonymously and get higher earnings directly in Bitcoin, or open an account and enjoy advanced mining statistics & reporting, frequent payouts, fast & cheap Bitcoin Lightning Network withdrawals and other advantages of the platform.
Kaspa mining has seen a lot of interest since the addition of ASICs to the network, and on the NiceHash social media accounts we are running a contest to win KS0 miners this month, feel free to enter. Find out how to connect your miners on the link below:

Thanks for letting us know. We were not aware of this and received no reports. As far as we were aware, the Avalon miners 11xx series worked ok.

We will perform tests with the A13xx series.

If someone is experiencing issues, feel free to let us know via our Discord channel where we can chat in realtime. https://discord.com/invite/nicehash

NiceHash is offering solo mining through buying packages of hashrate. We call it EasyMining since anyone with BTC can buy these packages and have a chance of hitting a full block reward. https://www.nicehash.com/my/easymining/

Basically, you can buy a package for $2 to $200 worth of BTC and have a probability of 1:74000 to 1:740 of hitting a block. The reward is paid to your BTC wallet address of your choice (inputed before setting up an order).

This also allows NiceHash to pay the miners (sellers of hashrate) more than mining to any other pool. Since the launch of EasyMining. We paid 6% more to the sellers (miners) than mining Bitcoin via pool.

We do not ban accounts without a valid reason. If you believe the reason your account was banned is not justifiable, please contact support@nicehash.com and we will help you re-activate your account.

6% is on the SHA256AsicBoost algorithm. Not all algorithms.

Živjo!

The graphs that show the luck percentage are not necessary accepted shares. They are solutions that were on a way of being a correct solution.

For example, 50% luck means that you "solved" 50% of the job. If the solution to the job equals to 10 zeroes (0000000000), that means that you got 5 of those right (000005ha72). But the required difficulty might need 7 zeroes (00000007sa). That is how a simple way of explaining how the graph displaying percentages is calculated.

NiceHash is paying 6% more than mining Bitcoin traditionally via a pool. Here is an explanation of how this is possible:

1️⃣ NiceHash is a hashpower marketplace.

Buyers are placing orders for hashrate. Orders can be manipulated by increasing or decreasing price and speed or canceling them.

2️⃣ NiceHash EasyMining

EasyMining is a way of solo mining blocks of Bitcoin (and other coins). EasyMining allows ordinary users with almost zero Bitcoin knowledge to participate in mining and potentially confirming a block of transactions by buying hashrate. This can be done in a very user-friendly way with just a couple of clicks.

For example, buying a package of SHA256 hashrate for $200 currently gives a user probability of 1:608 to confirm a block and earn a full Bitcoin block reward.

3️⃣ Higher Bitcoin ASIC miner payrates

Buyers of EasyMining are paying a premium price for hashrate and thus increasing the average payrate for the sellers (miners).

This is how much Bitcoin you would earn if you would mine at NiceHash:

❇ 5.59% more in the past 7 days
❇ 4.31% more in the past 30 days
❇ 6.33% since EasyMining Launch

You can buy hashrate on NiceHash. NiceHash is not a cloud mining company since you are not buying contracts but are only creating hashrate orders which can be manipulated (change the price, hashrate limit, or cancel it anytime).

While NiceHash is not a pool, we do offer referral for influencers.

Note that we do offer the best payrate for SHA256, Scrypt and Equihash. Miners earn about 5-20% more on NiceHash than mining directly.

NiceHash uses PPS and pays for each and every accepted share. Even if just one share is sent from the miner to NiceHash. https://www.nicehash.com/support/mining-help/earnings-and-payments/what-is-the-pps-reward-system

Spoiler: I am NiceHash

We actually have an article for this exact question: https://www.nicehash.com/support/hash-power-marketplace/general-help/why-would-someone-buy-hashing-power

NiceHash has a low payout threshold and fast payouts.

You can get paid every 4 hours if you mined at least 0.00001000 BTC, which is about $0.3.

Then you can use Lightning network to withdraw from NiceHash.
