Welcome to NicerMiner!

This miner is based on the open source NiceHashLegacyMiner.

It was adapted to mine the most profitable algorithm in MiningPoolHub.

To use this miner, you will need an account at MiningPoolHub - https://miningpoolhub.com/

The plan is to keep this miner as close as possible to the original NiceHashLegacyMiner, so that any future feature/bug-fix/improvement to the legacy miner could be easily merged into this miner.

Some key changes that were made to NHML:

  1. Switched the profitability data source from NiceHash to MPH algo profitability
  2. Changed the NiceHash bitcoin address field to MPH username field
  3. Added an API Key field to allow the app to load your balance and display it on the app's status-bar (this is optional, if you leave the API Key field blank, the balance will remain 0) To display your MPH balance in BTC, all your existing balances are converted to BTC using exchange rates from cryptocompare.com.

What coins will I be mining?

In this first release, the app will mine on MPH Algo Switching Mining port - for example, if according to profitability data, your hardware is most profitable mining Equihash, it will mine on MPH Equihash hub, letting MPH pick the most profitable Equihash coin automatically. If you are looking to get paid in BTC (like NiceHash) you can use MPH's auto-exchange functionality, and let the pool convert all your mined coins to BTC (or any other supported coin). Easy.

Dev Fees

To support the development of this miner, the miner will mine for the developer for 10 minutes every 24 hours (this is a very low fee of 0.7%).

How will this happen?

for every 24 hours the application will be mining, there will be a 10 minute "break" in which the app will stop mining for you, and will start mining for me. when those 10 minutes are done, it will resume mining for you where it left off, and based on the most profitable algorithm at the time.

Please note: the 10 minute dev fee mining period will be randomly placed on every 24 hours of active mining, so it's impossible to predict when it will take place.

To be completely transparent - during dev fee mining, the window's background will be switched to bright yellow - trust me - you can't miss it.
