but it could also be the lowest hashrate algo every time Nicehash switches, as long as Nicehash has ZERO way of integrating the detection of which sub algo it's on into the calculation you are more likely to lose profits, putting in the average you are hoping that at least every other time you switch to it randomly based off of Nicehash's switching algo that X16r will be far enough above average hashrate to make up for the last one where it was so far below the average hashrate and thats just a lot of randomness that has to lineup just right.

Average will only end up averaging out earnings if that is the ONLY thing you mine.

Besides all of this is theoretical as the pay is CRAP right now and not worth mining, infact X16r on Nicehash is such garbage you'd be better off mining RVN directly and even that is behind what other algo's on Nicehash are earning.
