Title: Glitch on bitcoinwatch?
Post by: 2_Thumbs_Up on May 26, 2011, 06:57:03 PM
So basically the entire network just got quite a bit bigger by 3000 Ghash/s. This can't be true right. And if it is is what seems to be the cause for this sudden and extreme new hashing power?

Alright, thanks for clearing stuff up. I feel a bit stupid now though, both for my ignorance and for not posting in the existing thread. To my defense, I did try to search before posting but couldn't find any fitting thread for it.

Don't feel too bad, at least you thought it was a glitch, most people think it's actual hashing power that magically made its way to the network.

Your thread was quite a bit more restrained than most, which makes it less entertaining but more reasonable. I will admit I personally prefer the "OMFGGGG SOMEONE BUILT A SUPER DUPER FPGA MINING CLUSTER DESTROYER AND ADDED 3THASH TO THE NETWORK WE'RE ALL DOOMED" but that's just me.
