I understand. They used Subaddresses and integrated addresses ?

SChernykh commented 1 year ago

If you want to send Monero to Nicehash (???), you can send it from your miner wallet that starts with 4... They use subaddresses (one per user) to know who sent them XMR. Mining only allows (for technical reasons) standard addresses that start with 4...

So it will not work. I want to rent power at NiceHash.

SChernykh commented 1 year ago

It will work. You already asked 3 weeks ago. P2Pool works fine with NiceHash - you just need to point NiceHash miners to your Stratum IP:port and make sure the port is open in firewall. The address you set in P2Pool command line has nothing to do with NiceHash and it never even sees this address.

Yes, he works with NiceHash. I want to try to buy power from them and return there, and buy again.

SChernykh commented 1 year ago

You can't do it with a single wallet address. P2Pool must use an address starting with 4... and NiceHash probably gave you some address starting with 8... You have to first mine Monero to 4... address and then send mined coins to NiceHash.

I understand. For p2pool I'll must use another wallet ?
