I had over 60k carbon coins on that carbon.hashrapid.com pool and they just disappeared from confirmed. User ID 1430.
Anyone had that issue?
Support doesn't answer to my tickets.
Seems to be this pool is totally scam.
Want my coins back!

I've seen my share of issues at this pool. Every single coin. Always something that causes a lot of miners to lose money. Operator always comes back with some story. He is probably stealing the funds every once in a while.

The website looks like a direct rip off of www.fusionhash.com as well.  That's pretty funny.

3 hours passed.
Still no coins and no answer from admin.

Happened with both his COINO & MINT pools.

Lots of blocks mined but owner kept the payouts for himself & hid it under a "server upgrade".

Don't know why people still go back & mine at his pool  ???

yea same thing happened to me, at least 200-300k CARB missing
edit user id 1463

I am also missing north of 200k coins. Emailed the admins, no answer yet.
Edit: User ID is 1500

I definitely learned a lesson. 

I had over 2 million in my account, probably closer to 3 last night. I checked the site this morning and had ZERO currency, no failed login attempts, no mismatch on pins, and no record of earnings (fees, debits, credits or otherwise) in the transaction log.

Hallmark of "behind the scenes" activity/error - will be interesting to see how this plays out.

Aye, the Cap'n be lookin' to put an end to this scallywag pillagin'

got good experience with hashstrike for mint!

ive experienced scam pool myself  :'(

Hello,

We are very aware of this problem.  And I would like to address, this is not a scam pool.  In the official thread we have posted an update, that we are fully aware.   The system has had a technical glitch, just like coins themselves can, welcome to crypto currency.

Rather then shut down the entire system to figure this out, it is taking longer while the pool is operational.  

Do not worry this will be resolved, this is not something that is a 5 minute fix and needs a deep dive into code.  Also please be aware the pool is currently working properly, and this issue is isolated to a certain time frame. 

If the issue cannot be resolved automatically, at the very least we will have manual payouts for missing coins.  Please follow the main carbon thread, where all updates will be posted.

You will notice a vast majority of pools have issues.   And the reason this is that while the pool software is open source, is excellent, and it is an amazing contribution it is not perfect. Much like many open source projects.  In fact, there is many commits everyday to the system, on github, to fix issues and problems in the software.

The point of this is that pool owners are dealing with a complicated system to setup, and maintain.   If it was easy to do then more would do it.  But it's not, and things break.  

Any update rapidhash?

Still waiting on my 200k+ carbon coin that was in confirmed status. Sent pool owners an email over 48 hours ago now still now reply by email or real answers on this thread. Only excuses. So I'm going to assume that the pool owners have taken the coins.

Give them the benefit of the doubt. If we don't hear something in a day or two, definitely time to open it up a little wider.

I've given them about 2.5 days now to get back to me by email or say something on the board. Another user said this isn't the first time this pool has scammed people out of coins saying it's a problem with their server or whatever.

I've had issues with them in the past too, FYI. Got my coins in the end, but it was just hassle and unneeded stress.

What I found most disturbing was their association with pump and dump schemes. Not saying they participate, but there is a lot of back and forth with those types of groups.

Hi, like you I've lost a huge amount of coin on this pool, like 0,0014 66coin and 150-160k flappycoin. The 66coin pool site is offline and I cant acces to my account so i'can't payout, and on the flapcoin pool coins disappeard. I'send them 2 messages on monday but no one reply me till now. I start thinking that i'trhow away 2 weeks of mining (i mine whit the 7850 of my gaming pc)...

Yes,

We've been trying to troubleshoot this and it is difficult.   So rather then make people wait, we are creating a spreadsheet and we will be doing manual payouts.

Please check the official carbon thread.

For 66 coin where should i post??? and for flappy?

Still waiting on manual payout for 200K+ coins

Any update?

I haven't had a single problem with them with automatic payouts.

Give them the benefit of the doubt... It's almost been a week. If this many people were effected, and they have to manually sort it, it may take a while.

Either way, they will either pay out or this message will get louder.

They have cleaned out my million Mintcoins too. 0.4 BTC at current prices.

I left them there while MINT was worthless, didn't want to download wallet and when I saw it's pumped today went over there to pick them up but BAM, balance is 0.

I'm still missing MINT from their server "migration" a few days back due to "a corrupt blkindex file".

I understand these things can be complicated but why not post something somewhere about a timeframe of resolution?

Or maybe a quick reply to my many sent messages instead of silence?

Not surprising that people get tired of being polite and start saying "scam".

I switched over to scryptominers, same 2% fee, more hasrate, and they haven't stolen any coins from me yet!

Same thing to me. Hashrapid.com own me since 3 days over 500 000 mintcoins.
Not only that. They disabled their messaging system.
I had to send a message from their topcoin website.

SCAM until proven wrong. Avoid them.

A) they change server
B) the coins we're stuck in the old server
C) after trying to withdraw them, the coins disapears.
D) no message or ticket system avaiable.

Hashrapid.com, reply or my message will get louder too.

Costumers satisfaction comes first.

Would you be doing the same with MINT coin?
Where are my 2,4 mil MINT coins. I want answers. It has been 3 days now. No replies.

I also feel like coin amount was lot smaller than what I got from there than what I got from another pool.

Hello? Hashrapid?

Just say something, anything so that we don't all think you're a scam operation.

What happened to all those MINT?

This is why you set your auto payout low. Things happen, and the pool is not a bank.

If you read the Terms of Service on hashrapid or most pools you'll see this:

I have seen people horde tons and tons of coins on pools, like 5+ BTC value worth of coins. For what reason? Wallets get corrupted, hard drives go bad, etc... and then people freak out. It's not your wallet, get the coins off there as soon as possible. Most reputable pools will reinforce the idea of a low payout, because they know that shit breaks.

Now, I am not saying there is not corrupt pool operators out there but that's a whole other issue.

Great point in citing the terms of service; however, I don't think letting coins idle for a day is a breach or a bridge too far.  As a newbie miner, I obviously took the lesson.

Hashrapid positions itself as as a professional mining service with on-call development operators.  The pool charges a 2% rate and has payout costs - personally, I associate the higher fees and statements of service worth it assuming service is rendered. This assumption and interpretation leads me to conclude the owners and operators wouldn't hide behind terms of service in doing what is right.

Rather than destroying the brand they have at present and starting over under a new pseudonym, I kind of have to think they will do the manual payouts they said they would...Despite the lack of communication.

dude!

this is not the real world, is crypto. your logic doesn't apply here.

and no, hashrapid doesn't position itself anywhere.

Looks like Hashrapid has stolen all the mintcoins with the excuse of site problems. MINERS BEWARE

Let me at least pretend we can be civilized... don't pop my bubble!!! Please, not yet! I want to believe in humanity!

you'll lose your money if you have that faith/belief/attitude here!

don't trust anyone, triple check everything and everyone, don't jump in the pool unless you're really ready to get wet, use common sense and don't, by any means, be greedy. thank me in a month.

 :-*

Well if they had to steal some coins then MINT was the right one to steal atm thats for sure.

If you steal, then steal something expensive seems to be hashrapid's philosophy.

Carboncoin has quadrupled in value today, still haven't received my 200k payout. I have waited a fucking week now, they say they are doing manual payouts several days ago, then where the fuck are my coins?

HASHRAPID IS A SCAM POOL

OP

Topic started February 19, 2014, 03:16:38 PM

Since that time I haven't receive any coins.

Admins of pool should pay for their scam

This "moving to a new server" excuse seems to be a regular thing for hashrapid. They'd already switched servers once on Mint.

I would like a public response from them before ever mining on their pools again.

Good luck getting a response, no-one else ever has. Shady excuses, missing coins and conveniently timed hiccups. It's a scam pool to me until proven otherwise.

Anyone care to join me on the mint forums with the hash rapids person and I debate on the legitimacy of their pool operation?

I also lost 9K confirmed Mint coins mining on their pool and went to the ip they posted to claim my so called missing Mint, happend to be only 1k insted of my 10k confirmed mint coins.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=450381.msg5391431#msg5391431

Thanks in advance.

I have yet to receive any of my payout from the old server. 650k MINT. For some reason it says 100K less than it is supposed to be as well.

still waiting for 200-300k carboncoins...

Be warned everyone - hashrapid enjoys stealing coins.

They do not even deny it.

Instead of defending themselves and addressing this extremely common issue they remain silent.

That's BS.  It's only Hashrapids pool having this "problem".  I was mining at your MINT pool the first week up to the point it went down for an upgrade.

Once you have the new pool up, you did give us a link to withdraw our coins from the old server, but it was less than before the server went down.  I was able to withdraw  my coins, but there were a ton of confirmed blocks, with no payout to miners.  We asked you about it on the MINT forums but you never answered them & just disappeared.

Oh & my COINO coins where I sent you my wallet address 3 times, I still have not received them yet.

can confirm
lost 8.3 million MINT mined since day 1

no replies

owner is a thief

Add last night's ZEIT pool to the list of scams, they even claimed to be getting blocks to keep people mining:

*Offical Zeit Pool - We are live!! and finding zome zeit blocks! come join us :)

NOT A SINGLE COIN, DON'T BELIEVE A WORD THESE SCAMMERS SAY

People need to know

Hashrapid scamming thieves.

Cmon hashrapid - why not defend yourselves?

I lost 20k of mint coins on their pool. Sent them many emails but never got a response. Now I am convinced they are totally scammers.

on February 24th I tried to manually withdraw the confirmed 9.4k mintcoins from their "old" server. right after that the balance went to 0 but NOTHING arrived in my wallet. almost a week later, still nothing.

just saying here and there that "other pools have problems too", simply doesn't cut it.

my amount of over 9400 mint might not be a lot but there are people who are missing HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of coins and in peak times of mint that is, sorry, a fuckload of money.

I seriously hope that not even more people get scammed by this pool.

I've had terrible issues with them too.  When I was mining Mint, Hashstrike was down every 5 minutes so I was using Hashrapid.  I noticed big differences.  To test, I ran a machine with a r9 270 on hashrapid for 3 days.  I ran another identical machine with exact same setup on hashstrike for the same 3 days.  40% less on hashrapid, even with all the downtime hashstrike was having.  Don't take my word for it, test it yourself.

And I'm getting similar results now comparing basshash and hashrapid.
