+## How to mine Monero (XMR) without a mining equipment?
+
+If you don’t have a profitable mining equipment, nor time or
+money to invest into building it, you can still mine Monero with NiceHash.
+
+NiceHash is a hashing power marketplace. Sellers of hashing
+power, i.e. miners, provide the hashing power for buyers (those who want to buy
+a service of mining a certain coin). Hence, NiceHash can provide you a massive
+hashing power in short amount of time. You won’t have to wait for years to see
+if you will make a profit or not and you can control which coin, at which pool,
+and for how long you want to mine.
+
+### **Step 1:** Create new account at NiceHash
+
+Visit [registration
+page](https://www.nicehash.com/?p=register) and register with your e-mail address.
+
+### **Step 2:** Deposit some Bitcoins to your account
+
+You will mine Monero, but you can buy hashing power at
+NiceHash only with Bitcoins. You can always withdraw unspent Bitcoins from your
+account back to any Bitcoin wallet.
+
+Visit your [wallet
+page](https://www.nicehash.com/?p=wallet) and make a deposit. Note that the minimum price for placing an order
+equals 0.01 BTC.
+
+### **Step 3:** Find a suitable pool for mining and add it to your pool list
+
+Selection of the pool plays a big role in the final amount
+of mined cryptocurrency. Make sure the pool you have selected can handle
+massive hashing rate and loads of shares, especially from a single connection.
+You can find a list of Monero pools [here](https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=583449.0).
+
+Note that you will probably have to register an account at
+selected pool as well. The pool will provide you with all the information you need.
+You can save your favourite pools at [this page](https://www.nicehash.com/?p=managepools).
+
+### **Step 4:** Create new order and start mining
+
+When creating a [new order](https://www.nicehash.com/?p=orders&new), make sure you
+select CryptoNight algorithm for mining Monero. If you want to first learn more
+about placing an order with NiceHash, we recommend you to read this [frequently asked question](https://www.nicehash.com/?p=faq#faqb0).
+
+If you want to bid on
+hashing power select Standard (bidding) order type and if you want a fixed
+order that cannot be outbid, select Fixed order type. The status of marketplace
+and approximate prices of mining can be checked at [live marketplace](https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=orders).
