Is NiceHash Legacy vulnerable? I'm currently running a Claymore Eth+Decred miner, and the banner just says "remote management enabled on port XXXX", no "Read-Only" like some of them used to say.
Concerned because my NiceHash estimated payout has dropped from $30 to $26.xx.
How much of this is mitigated by a NAT Router/Firewall? With UPnP enabled? Although, I have my other FIOS router in front, so I'm probably safe.
-mport remote monitoring/management port. Default value is -3333 (read-only mode), specify "-mport 0" to disable remote monitoring/management feature.
Specify negative value to enable monitoring (get statistics) but disable management (restart, uploading files), for example, "-mport -3333" enables port 3333 for remote monitoring, but remote management will be blocked.
You can also use your web browser to see current miner state, for example, type "localhost:3333" in web browser.
Warning: use negative option value or disable remote management entirely if you think that you can be attacked via this port!
By default, miner will accept connections on specified port on all network adapters, but you can select desired network interface directly, for example, "-mport 127.0.0.1:3333" opens port on localhost only.
Someone just mentioned that download the newest software. And it's read onlyIs NiceHash Legacy vulnerable? I'm currently running a Claymore Eth+Decred miner, and the banner just says "remote management enabled on port XXXX", no "Read-Only" like some of them used to say.

Not always, depends on the algorithm, especially on an NV card. Sometimes, my GPU usage in Win10 FCU Task Manager, only shows 10-20% on some algos, on my GTX 1070 ti.So I am trying mining with nicehash and am wondering why my GPU doesn't sound like a leaf blower? I thought mining would be maxxing out my GPU...

Like VirtualLarry said it just depends on the algorithm you are using. Here's a screen cap I just took of my RX480 mining eth using claymore's miner. As you can see my MSI RX480 is maxed out on core clock and memory clock but the fan is at a modest 57% and it is consistently at that level.So I am trying mining with nicehash and am wondering why my GPU doesn't sound like a leaf blower? I thought mining would be maxxing out my GPU...
Missed this question when I posted earlier. You can hold onto anything you mine indefinitely. There is no law saying you have to cash out at a certain time for USD or GBP or any other currency.Thanks
Glad I didn't prematurely order a water cooler
One more question, can I hold on to what I mine until BC goes up in value?
Of course. But if that coin u mine goes to crap, then ur holding onto essentially nothing.Missed this question when I posted earlier. You can hold onto anything you mine indefinitely. There is no law saying you have to cash out at a certain time for USD or GBP or any other currency.
That goes without saying but Paperfist wanted to know if he could hold onto his mined shares or if he had to sell them. I was just answering his basic question but you are indeed correct. If the coins he is mining now go to crap then he is out the money they were once worth. He can always transfer his mined shares to another coin that is more stable if he desires. I believe that is called currency trading.Of course. But if that coin u mine goes to crap, then ur holding onto essentially nothing.
Bbhaag has the better answer .I'm new myself to mining but what I plan to do is cash out about half of what I make then keep the rest so I can play the market a bit. Though I may cash out more like 80% as my main goal will be to try to get ROI on the equipment. Once I hit that point then everything else after is just bonus.
Right now I'm using 1 1070 TI mining Ethereum, I have another 1070 that's ready to go but I'm building a dedicated rig, with custom case, so once that's ready I'll have both cards running in that rig, as right now my gaming machine is tied up.
I'd like to go with more cards but they're too expensive now because of the shortage. I will wait it out an see what happens. I want to eventually put 6 cards in the machine, maybe even 8.
I keep having visions of going YUGE and buying property and going solar, but reality is the initial capital for that is kind of crazy, and obtaining the hardware in a quantity that makes it worthwhile is too hard.
