With Nicehash down, Im mining zcash atm, Im using coinomi as my wallet and I want to trade it to bitcoin because my country ( philippines ) has a one wallet and I really like it, it has tons of features that is really handy. Coinomi has Shapeshift and Changely but the minimum Zcash they accept to exchange is 0.2 which would takes months! I tried Poloniex but the transaction fee of BTC is waay too high, its $1.6 per transaction and Im only gonna send $3! 

 

Note: Im a newbie, hobby miner mining with a gtx 9604gb :)

 

Is there any other alternatives that can trade cryptos at a reasonable price???

this is the reality of bitcoin. leave it in your wallet until you amass a large amount, say over $100, and THEN you exchange it. You always pay gas to get it across the network.

 

This is also why BTC will not become an everyday payment medium if something doesn't change. With network fees being so high, it's an investment vehicle only.

That is a bitcoin problem at the moment. The network is busy, so fees are high. $3 is rather insignificant in the bigger picture.

He's being a DB. you wrote 9604 GB instead of 960 4GB.

What if I just use poloniex and dont worry about the $1.5 fee but instead of trading my zcash to btc every payout, ill just trade it when btc price drops??? Is this a good strat???

That's up to you to decide. BTC is only going to go up, and Alts always go down because of it. There's no difference between you trading it out when you get paid or if NH does it for you. The only difference here is that YOU are now in control of when you trade it for BTC instead of NH applying a price.

 

hell when BTC was below 10,000, Zen was pumping .0035 Zen/BTC. it's now .001something. if i had just sold my zen for BTC when it was in the $35's i would be ahead. but then BTC skyrocketed and Zen fell hard.
