What every ASIC miner earns
Daily profit on the marketplace and on a pool for every ASIC miner whose algorithm has a live price, after electricity at your rate.

How selling hashpower on NiceHash works
NiceHash is a marketplace: buyers rent hashrate to mine the coins they choose, and your ASIC miner supplies it.
Buyers place orders
Buyers pay in advance for hashrate on one algorithm and point it at the pool of their choice. Their bids set the price, and the price moves with demand.
Your miner does the work
Your ASIC miner connects to the NiceHash server for its algorithm. NiceHash routes your hashrate to the buyers' active orders, so you never pick a coin or a pool yourself.
Paid for every accepted share
NiceHash pays for every accepted share in real time, at the current price of the algorithm. There are no blocks to wait for and no pool luck: the buyer carries that risk.
Paid in Bitcoin
Earnings are paid in Bitcoin, or in USDT if you choose it, to your NiceHash wallet. The money comes from the buyers; NiceHash runs the marketplace and keeps a fee.
How to sell hashpower on NiceHash with an ASIC miner
From a new account to an ASIC miner that earns Bitcoin on the marketplace.
Create a NiceHash account
Register on the NiceHash website with your email address and a password, then click the confirmation link NiceHash sends you. The account only becomes active after that confirmation.
Secure and verify the account
Turn on two-factor authentication, which NiceHash asks for at login, on withdrawals and on new orders. Complete the identity verification as well: NiceHash requires it for the wallet, so you need it before you can withdraw.
Copy your mining address
Open the Mining tab and click Mining address. This address identifies your account on the marketplace. It is not a Bitcoin wallet address, so never send coins to it.
Generate the stratum address
Open the NiceHash stratum generator, pick the algorithm your miner runs and copy the server address it shows. Every algorithm has its own address.
Enter the pool settings in your miner
Open the miner's web interface, paste the stratum address as the pool URL, enter your mining address followed by a dot and a worker name as the worker, and use x as the password. Save and let the miner restart.
Check the worker on the dashboard
Within a few minutes the worker appears in the Mining tab with its accepted hashrate and unpaid balance. If shares are rejected or the connection drops, switch from the SSL address to the TCP address.
NiceHash pool settings for ASIC miners
These settings go into the pool fields of any ASIC miner. Replace the algorithm part of the address with the algorithm your miner runs.
- Pool URL
- stratum+tcp://<algorithm>.auto.nicehash.com:9200
- Pool URL with SSL
- stratum+ssl://<algorithm>.auto.nicehash.com:443
- Worker

- Password
- x
Stratum addresses for the algorithms on this page
| Algorithm | Pool URL |
|---|---|
| SHA-256 AsicBoost | stratum+tcp://sha256asicboost.auto.nicehash.com:9200 |
| Scrypt | stratum+tcp://scrypt.auto.nicehash.com:9200 |
| Etchash | stratum+tcp://etchash.auto.nicehash.com:9200 |
| KHeavyHash | stratum+tcp://kheavyhash.auto.nicehash.com:9200 |
| X11 | stratum+tcp://x11.auto.nicehash.com:9200 |
| Eaglesong | stratum+tcp://eaglesong.auto.nicehash.com:9200 |
| Blake3 | stratum+tcp://alephium.auto.nicehash.com:9200 |
| Equihash | stratum+tcp://equihash.auto.nicehash.com:9200 |
- Check the exact line in the NiceHash stratum generator before you save it, because NiceHash can add or rename algorithm servers.
- If the SSL connection does not work, use the TCP address. Adding #xnsub to the end of the address can help when shares are rejected.
- Keep worker names to plain letters, digits, hyphens and underscores, and give every machine its own name so you can follow it on the dashboard.
NiceHash fees, payouts and withdrawals
What NiceHash charges a hashpower seller and when the money arrives, as published on its support pages.
Payouts
- Payment model
- RTPPS
- Payout interval
- 4 h
- Daily payout option
- 02:00 CEST
- Payout interval with the miner disconnected
- 8 h
- Minimum payout
- 0.00001 BTC · 0.01 USDT
- Service fee on each payout
- 2%
- NiceHash firmware licence fee for Bitcoin and Scrypt miners
- 1.4–2%
Withdrawals
| Method | Minimum | Fee |
|---|---|---|
| Bitcoin on-chain | 0.0005 BTC | ≥ 0.0001 BTC |
| Bitcoin Lightning | 200 sat | 0.2% (150–10,000 sat) |
| USDT | 10 USDT | ≥ 1 USDT |
A Lightning withdrawal adds a routing fee when the payment has to pass through other nodes. A withdrawal to another NiceHash account stays on the platform.
The lower firmware licence fee applies when the machine mines on NiceHash.

When NiceHash pays more than pool mining, and when it pays less
The tables above compare both figures live. These are the reasons the gap opens in one direction or the other.
Why NiceHash can pay more
- Buyers chase coins the pool figure does not cover: new coins, short profit spikes, or blocks they want to find on their own pool.
- When demand for an algorithm outruns the hashrate on offer, buyers bid above what mining the coins pays.
- You are paid per share in real time, so there is no pool luck, no wait for block confirmations and no coin to sell.
Where NiceHash pays more right now
Why a pool can pay more
- Buyers only pay above mining when they expect a gain, so on many algorithms the marketplace price settles below the pool figure.
- NiceHash keeps a service fee from every payout, and a withdrawal to your own wallet costs a blockchain fee.
- A pool payout can include merged-mined coins and transaction fees that the marketplace price does not reflect.
- On a pool you keep the coin and gain if its price rises; NiceHash pays you in Bitcoin at the price of the moment.

The gap moves every few minutes. Compare both figures for your own miner in the calculator above before you switch.
Risks of selling hashpower and how to manage them
What can cost you money on a hashpower marketplace, and the habits that keep it small.
Prices move with demand
The NiceHash price of an algorithm changes all day with buyers' orders. A miner that earns more on NiceHash in the morning can earn less at night, so check the comparison before you move a whole fleet.
Do not leave funds idle
NiceHash may not keep inactive funds in its shared wallet for long. Balances left untouched for weeks are moved to an individual blockchain wallet for a blockchain fee, and very small balances are used up by that fee. Withdraw regularly or set up automatic payouts to your own wallet.
Custody and security
Your earnings sit on a custodial platform until you withdraw them. Use a unique password and two-factor authentication, and move what you do not need to a wallet you control.
Rejected shares cost money
Only accepted shares are paid. A slow or unstable connection turns work into rejected shares, so use a wired network, the exact stratum address for your algorithm and one worker name per machine.
Firmware, heat and noise
Selling hashpower does not change how hard the machine works. Custom firmware with automatic tuning charges its own licence fee on top of the NiceHash fee, so count it in, and keep the miner cool and dust-free.
Electricity decides the profit
NiceHash pays for hashrate, not for your power bill. The calculator subtracts electricity at your rate; a miner that runs at a loss on a pool usually runs at a loss on NiceHash too.
Solo lottery miners are not on this page: what they offer is the chance of a whole block, and selling their hashpower gives that chance away. Their odds are on the solo mining page.
