Edit: its back nevermind. I guess I should change pools... isn't this a big deal kinda? Title: Re: Deebit at almost 50% again? Post by: ricksta on July 06, 2011, 09:25:08 PM now it looks like deepbit is down to like a quarter
Title: Re: Deebit at almost 50% again? Post by: evlew on July 06, 2011, 09:45:46 PM keep in mind btcguild is down. might have a slight effect if people aren't able to switch pools
Title: Re: Deebit at almost 50% again? Post by: bcpokey on July 06, 2011, 10:32:18 PM lots of crap happening, btcguild got ddos'd, deepbit went down, I think bitcoinwatch will be a bit hectic for a little bit.

It makes things less prone to attack, whether that attack be directed at the pool or the network itself. Title: Re: Deebit at almost 50% again?

Title: Re: Deebit at almost 50% again? Post by: CubedRoot on July 07, 2011, 01:49:49 AM I suggest moving from deepbit to one of the smaller pools. There are alot of good new pools starting up. Ours is one: www.bithasher.com

Title: Re: Deebit at almost 50% again? Post by: newunit16 on July 07, 2011, 07:11:05 AM yeah why isn't everyone flipping shit about deepbit right now? just a couple of weeks ago mining on deepbit was worse than being a pedophile.
i see no reason to "OMG ONLY MINEZ WIT DEEPBITZ FER DA BUTTCOENZ!". more frequent low payouts are the same as less frequent high payouts. there is a symbiotic relationship to profit vs poolsize, and it seems to be well below deepbits size. Title: Re: Deebit at almost 50% again? Post by: syb3ria on July 07, 2011, 07:38:52 AM BTCGuild is down, that's why... There are still more pools. And i don't know why you dislike deepbit. So far i'm ok with it, since i'm on proportional and got low processing power.Title: Re: Deebit at almost 50% again? Post by: newunit16 on July 07, 2011, 07:51:02 AM BTCGuild is down, that's why...

I've tried other pools, and nothing has matched the consistency and information available at deepbit. I just like it best. Title: Re: Deebit at almost 50% again?

Post by: newunit16 on July 07, 2011, 12:26:19 PM now if someone gain access to deepbit machines it van kill BTC project, i bet that ppl working for the hosting company have no idea how much power they have remember. it was the users that chose this.

Its all about pool diversification if we really value strengthening the network. Sure, deepbit does a lot of things right, but for me I'd rather mine somewhere else knowing that by doing so I'm increasing the strength of the bitcoin network. If the network is compromised due to nefarious use of the deepbit pool, the price and trust in bitcoin as a viable system will plummet. Ideally, I'd like to see hundreds of pools, with the best pools holding no more than 10% market share of miners. Title: Re: Deebit at almost 50% again?

Title: Re: Deebit at almost 50% again? Post by: syb3ria on July 08, 2011, 07:23:53 AM deepbit just went down for maintenance. It's back on now, but i saw people complaining it was away for like 3 hours. |
