Well if it helps you any Campbx has had my BTC frozen for 7 weeks and counting.  Seriously BTC-e can't suck that bad, nobody can...

This round is longer than the last but my estimated payout is quite a bit less still.  Is this due to the difficulty increase or is something else going on?

Dgm is like that, it also carries over credits even if you stop mining

I mined here quite a bit with my GPU's 5 or 6 months ago or whenever that was, so I am sort of used to the DGM.  But I have only been back for this round and the previous one.  I did get in on the previous round from almost right at the start.  But what seems off to me is that for the previous round I started at zero and still got a higher payout than I am at for this round where I did not start at zero and where I have been mining longer.  This is not how I recall DGM working.  A longer round always equaled a higher payout.  Although back then the difficulty jumps were not so steep which is why I was wondering if that had something to do with it.


I hadn't noticed this.  Maybe outages are responsible for the low DGM estimate I am seeing?


It seems like the DGM payment estimate is about half of what it ends up actually paying out.  I don't understand how it works, but I'm ok with the payouts overall.

Oh geez that better not be the case for me.  My estimate is already not very impressive for this round.  For the first round I was in (the one prior to this one) my payout was exactly what the estimate was (or at least very, very close since I didn't actually see it end). 

Payout is HIGHER



Oooooooh.  Well that could well explains it.  If my first estimate was about equal to my payout but now my estimate is about half of the payout then the payout would be closer to what I remember for this pool.  My current estimate is only something like 80% of what my first round payout was.  But this round is already about 20 hours longer.  So if the payout was around twice the estimate then it would be higher than the first round as I would expect.

Another thing that might not encourage new people to join this pool is the 9TH in the thread title.  I notice the other pools update that and bitparking hasn't in a while.  It makes it look smaller than it is.  I came back here with my "too little too late ASICs" because I remember liking it when I was GPU mining.

Java is a huge malware vector.  I do not run it on my PC's for reasons such as this.  This is the first time I have heard of it being used for BTC related hack stuff but it has long been used to make your webmail accounts send spam for the malware writers that wind up encouraging your friends to click malicious links since the email comes from you.  It is also frequently used to install trojans and other crap on your PC.  There is a reason java has updates almost bi-weekly.  Don't install java on any computer unless it is essential to some app you use and then don't use that computer to surf the web.

Just came back here to check the date on this, it's been so long I lost track.  Tomorrow will be 7 weeks since these idiots took my BTC deposit.  In that time I had one ticket which they waited more than a week to respond to and said "ETA 1-2 weeks" and closed (I think it has been something like 5 or 6 weeks since that happened), and another ticket to which they said some version of "wait some more" (several weeks since that happened).  Still waiting.  

Where's my BTC Keyur?  What's your excuse now?  Too much volume on your two-bit exchange?  Not likely...

Something bad is happening here.  I continue to see abnormally low shifts every 6 or 8 hours which is keeping my 10 shift average lower than it should be.  I am still not catching it when it is happening but I keep checking and finding that shifts are reporting my contributions a good 40% less than they should be which leads me to believe I am being disconnected.  My miner is using stratum not getwork.

Try using a backup to another pool. That will let you know if the dropouts are at your end or BitMinters, and if it's at BitMinter's end, you won't lose anything.

I have been mining just fine here for months but now it is getting worse all the time.  I have 3 bad shifts in the last 10 now.  I think I am going to mine elsewhere for a while.

I don't use MtGox on account of nobody should support a place that dysfunctional, but can't you get the TXID from the transaction in your account somewhere?  If you can't get it by yourself you should be able to request it but then you will run into that dysfunction problem I was referring to.
1489  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Cryptsy: What's wrong with Cryptsy? on: January 01, 2014, 03:00:24 PM
I had the same issue.  I was impatient after a couple days so I bought out the negative and then withdrew the coins I was trying to get out.  I put it in the ticket that I had done that and that I wanted to be reimbursed.  It took a few days but eventually that is exactly what happened, BitJohn transferred me the BTC I used to buy out the negative.

Since the new website they have had some serious usage issues but I have always found that their support provides satisfactory solutions.  Their support takes a bit longer now than it used to but in the end they have always come through which is more than I can say about basically any other exchange.

I seem to be having abnormally bad shifts every 5-8 hours for the past couple of days.  This means my rolling 10 shift average is always being damaged by at least one but sometimes more of these abnormally low shifts.  I assume I am being disconnected for some portion of these low shifts but haven't seen it actually happening.  Is this related to the botnet DDOS conversation?  If so can I get my IP whitelisted?  My public IP for my miners doesn't ever change.

I am giving these idiots one more week before I call this a scam.  I realize it is the holidays but they have basically just stopped responding to everyone with missing bitcoins due to their "wallet wipe" issue.  Their facebook page is mostly people asking for issues to be resolved that haven't been dealt with in more than a month (just like mine).  It has the look of a scam unraveling to me.  I know they used to be legit but their trade volume is next to nothing and the only visibility they have is what looks to be delay tactics (telling people they will fix their issue soon and then ignoring them forever after).  I haven't seen anyone claim to have an issue resolved by them in at least a month.

Yesterday I noticed that for no apparent reason my crypsty points where cut in half.  Today I see they have completely removed the audit history which is what informed me of that change in the first place.
1495  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: is anything bitcoin not a scam? on: December 21, 2013, 03:51:01 PM
Yeah I am souring on this whole thing myself.  I can't even keep from getting ripped off by the big name exchanges so how the hell can I do anything with bitcoin safely?  I have been in this for a while but am seriously contemplating selling all of it and waiting for something better to be invented.  I always did sort of see bitcoin as the first experiment in this area and now the shortcomings are starting to actually look huge liabilities as my losses mount into the thousands (of dollars).  Death and Taxes' Fastcashforbitcoins was the only totally reliable bitcoin service I was aware of and now that its gone it is like nothing but sharks out there.

It is actually a violation of ICANN policy NOT to update whois info.

"...false Whois information can be grounds for cancellation of their domain name registration. Registrants must review their Whois data, and make any corrections."

There is plenty more legalistic mumbo-jumbo if you want to read it but bottom line is, if whois is inaccurate, you are in violation and the registration can be revoked.

Has anyone gotten there BTC back from "expired" deposits?  Going on 5 weeks here. 
1498  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: campbx phishing attack? on: December 20, 2013, 01:10:29 PM
Have any of you guys that got the phising email (which I assume is pretty much everyone?) ever used their helpdesk/ticket system? I'm curious if emails were leaked from the campbx.kayako.com

Yes on both for me.
1499  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: campbx phishing attack? on: December 19, 2013, 06:25:18 PM


However, there is an important twist to this plot:

I have received that email to an email address which I used _only_ for CampBX.  (I use distinct email addresses for distinct services/companies, e.g.  "campbx-myusername@mydomain.com"  I do that to track the sources of spam, and to block a specific email address when I start receiving spam through it.)
Only me and CampBX knew that this email address existed.

So CampBX customer's email list _was_ compromised.

It would be great to have a reply or a statement from CampBX regarding that.
Anyone?

The thick plottens!

I hope this doesn't mean I won't get my BTC back from that black hole.

Edit: found the same email in my spam folder

Gentlemen,

1) Regarding missing BTC deposits:
We did a wallet wipe of old addresses (expired deposit addresses) on Nov 19th to improve trading engine performance amidst heavy trading activity.
Any deposits that were not confirmed by midnight EST may not have been credited due to the address being invalidated.  Our sys admin is working on these tickets and recovering deposits.



Since you are at least now admitting this was entirely your fault maybe you can cover the difference in value from the $1000+ prices and what I can actually get by selling them now?  Thanks for holding my BTC hostage, I'll be such a loyal customer from now on.
