I am sure hash is just a slang term for hashish, not sure about bad properties, I guess it all depends on how it is made, I remember the old "SoapBar" or "Slate" used to be terrible quality, but these days I think its all highgrade bubble hash its pure THC squashed in a block.

Just to clarify https://pot.suremine.com has not been hacked, we spotted other pools that have been hacked.

Its a real shame pools have been affected by this hack, hopefully positives can be taken from these hackes and other pools will become more secure.

Folks have just updated https://rdd.suremine.com with the latest reddcoind, feel free to checkout if you are looking for a pool that won't fork and is running 0% fees :-)

Blocks are now being acepted again, my pool ( https://pot.suremine.com ) has just processed a block. I think the difficulty may rise again as I saw a whole bunch of blocks get processed at roughly the same time, but hopefully things should start settling down again.

The unconfirmed should get confirmed, its just that the difficulty is high so blocks are taking longer and confirmation are linked to a number of blocks.

Can anyone verify that? I could be wrong

As for the orphaned, I think they are just orphaned.

OK this is my theory, looking at my potcoind logs at around 11:20GMT we have 30 blocks all accepted within 3 mins, the result of that knocked the diff way up ..... and we are still waiting for it to recover.

Yep something strange going on, am going through the logs on my potcoind to see if I can spot anything out of the ordinary.

Blocktime is also at 9mins ?

How long do you think it will be before we hit 20K subscribers? the rate the community is growing I don't think it will be long

Not that I know of, the wallet was patched for an issue with Kimoto, I always ensure I am running the latest wallet but have nothing about a heartbleed patch.

From a pool side of things I have upgraded SSL on all my servers, the communication to the wallet is handled internally so no risk.

Make sure you are running the latest version of the wallet, update everything that touches your wallet and don't trust exchanges or pools that haven't explicitly explained their position on heartbleed.

In addition I would advise changing your passwords.
