Bitcoin miners are earning a premium right now — here's why (NiceHash, Filip Primec)

Most Bitcoin miners are leaving money on the table by using traditional pools — and they don't know it. Right now, buyers on the NiceHash hashrate marketplace are paying nearly 3% above the standard hashprice benchmark, and that premium flows directly to miners.

Filip Primec, Director of NiceHash AG and Member of the Management Board, joins Ashton Addison to break down how NiceHash operates the world's largest hashrate marketplace, what RTPPS means for your daily earnings versus a standard FPPS pool, and why demand for on-demand hashrate is surging in 2026. From the EasyMining story — a solo miner who turned a $70 package into a $200K+ block reward — to where Bitcoin mining and AI compute intersect, this is a practical look at how miners at every scale can earn more.
You'll learn:

-Why buyers are paying a premium for hashrate and how it flows through to miners
-FPPS vs RTPPS in plain English — what it means for daily earnings and risk
-How NiceHash's real-time marketplace differs from traditional pools
-What the EasyMining story reveals about solo mining with rented hashrate
-Where Bitcoin mining and AI compute are genuinely converging
-How Lightning withdrawals, 4-hour BTC payouts, and Split Payments work
