I added some special help pages - one after pressing the instant payment button and one after sending the confirmation e-mail, both answering 99% of common questions. But looks like people never read them :( If you are using hotmail.com with high anti-spam filter settings, you'll need to add " no-reply@deepbit.net" to your contacts. If you are using yahoo.com and can't receive the confirmation message, PM me your login name.

I have not received their payments twice Have you entered wrong bitcoin address ? PM me your login so I can check it. UPD: Just checked. Both your transactions were delivered already.

This is interesting. Every miner would have be a node if I understand correctly. No, it's much more simple. You don't have to be a node to count five hashes back.

Trust me, not worth your time with a PS3. 15 mhashes at MAX which would take you YEARSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!! Wasn't it ~28 MH/s ?

i started using guiminer but when comparing my speeds with the chart i knew i could get allot more out of my card, so i switched to try out phoenix and im getting like +90ish mh/s more. Some users think that Phoenix shows more hashrate than it really does. But this is not verified yet.

it seems to be down again No, it's not. Check your DNS.

this happens quite allot today, is this due to server attacks or a bad configuration on my part. altough i had no problems in the time that i've been mining. everytime this happens i restart the app and it starts mining again. is this a known problem or something els? It's a bug in Phoenix miner. You can try to use poclbm or poclbm-gui (GUI miner). Also some people say that Phoenix Rising GUI can restart Phoenix automatically.

The help page that I think you are reffering to says that it will take up to 10minutes... it took at least 30minutes+ before I received the payment. It appears the system is just running a little slow right now. It says... It may take ~10 minutes to get first confirmation, but in worst case delays up to few hours are possible if the transaction was not included in pool's own block for some reason And... Bitcoinblockexplorer (the site that payments table is linked to) may show your transaction only AFTER it gets included in some block and that block is received by blockexplorer's server, so you may see 'no such transaction' message for some time after the payment is sent. This is normal. Thanks for using deepbit :)

Miner authors can implement simple detection routine that will stop mining if pool jumps back for more than a 5 blocks (checking by the hash of previous block). This will make ">50%" attack much more difficult to accomplish.
There is also another vulnerability to cover - the block holding, this may me the next task for miners. By doing this, at least all honest miners can be sure that their pool is not trying to make a fork.
Overtaking the pools or pool owners to disrupt the blockchain will be useless if the protection will be implemented in the miner software.

Similar issue here. I withdrew 9.99btc just after the attack. It shows on my deepbit account as withdrawn, wallet address matches up, but block explorer shows no such transaction. 8-10 blocks have passed since(1 hour 30 minutes). Similar issue here

Hey Tycho. I withdrew 11.02 BTC from my deepbit account, and the transaction appeared on my bitcoin transaction list. Then deepbit was temporarily unavailable and when it got back up my account balance was 0.00 BTC. An hour had passed already and there's still 0 confirmations. This wouldn't usually worry me, but when I click the link in the transactions, block explorer says that there's "No such transaction", though my account is still emptied out. What's up? I see that you pressed the button and a special help page was shown to you immediately, telling about what happened and why there is may be a delay. English is not my native language, so can you help me to improve this page ? Tell me, please, what was not clear in the text ?

The 100% of this pie chart is calculated by the rate of new block generation in the network, but all the pools there are accounted by their hashare. Hashrate and block generation rate are somehow similar, but NOT the same. 0.49% for other was wrong number.

10.06.2011 15:22 1BPkRk3L2sgjBhCmjpv8... 0.31 Total: 0.31 BTC But I do not see any amount in my wallet or anywhere else? How do I access these bitcoins? I'm looking forward to getting this working and contributing to this pool! Thanks!

So is it over and is the site back up Tycho or are we still getting attacked? I switched to BtcGuild but they are having the same problem. Have not tried Btcmine yet anyone know if they are getting attacked also or if they are fine? At this moment the attack is not affecting our mining operations already. Anyone have any ideas who keeps attacking everyone and why? May be someone don't like bitcoins :)

Severs having problems again? Lots of idle miners and TCP timeout errors in the last few minutes....
Yar. Deepbit is down and I think a few others as well. Can you move US servers to europe? We had a DDoS attack, but the pool is not down at this moment.

are you going to drop rates again tycho?, i lost precious btc Downtime was not that long. I'm going to set up more DDoS protection.

|

Yes, we had a DDoS attack.
