Let’s now move on to the creation of orders.
How do I create an order on Nicehash?
To create an order on Nicehash, go to Hashpower Marketplace. Once on the page, choose the right algorithm.
- For Bitcoin, select SHA-256.
- For Ethereum Classic, select Etchash.
- For Ergo, select Autolykos.
- For Flux, select ZelHash.
- For Ravencoin, select KawPow.
- For Beam, select BeamV3.
Then, choose the server location (Europe, USA), as well as the type of order you want to make (Standard, Fixed).
The difference between these two types of orders is the flexibility of the price and limit for an order. It is flexible for a standard order, whereas it is fixed for a fixed order. A fixed order can only run for 24 hours whereas a standard order can run up to 10 days.
