Unfortunately I think it still is a lenders vs traders problem. I hate to sound combative, but BFX halted trades to protect lenders and I understand fully why, but had BFX followed stamp instead of halting any and all trades till recovery I would have made a significant amount from my short position even before you take into consideration the flash crash.
I appreciate BFX's commitment to finding a middle ground but to a trader this is kind of like blasphemy. Speaking as someone who has been trading a few years now you have to understand trading is a game of strategy, moves and counter-moves. A trader may take on a strategy that can incur 10 minor/moderate losses in a row in an expectation that if they stick to the same strategy they will score one big win on the 11th trade. This is kind of a simplified explanation but you have to understand. For many of us the crash down to 530 (following stamp and other exchanges) wasn't a gamble, it was an expectation--part of a longterm strategy. Those who aren't spreadbetting or scalping, which would be a majority b/c btc is a rough environment for short interval strategies, trade in expectation of a major swing. The last two weeks have been full of false signals and sideways markets that most of us have been sucking up losses from and sticking to a swing strategy in expectation we would see a major and profitable swing.
To save the lenders BFX chose to halt trades and wait for a reversal to prices above where the halt began, this utterly crippled a number of traders I'm sure.
It shouldn't be a matter of 'traders vs lenders' but unfortunately in protecting the interests of one group you harmed another. Again I understand why, but this is something worth taking the time to consider when you make these decisions.
EDIT
To append my further post in the future BFX as a matter of policy should always resume trading after a flashcrash below the price at which it was halted
I.E. If you intended to halt trading at 600 trading should be resumed below 600 the inverse is also true for a short squeeze
They didnt halt it to wait for reversal, they waited for more btc to arrive to bitstamp to liquidate on its orderbook. |

What about those who cannot remember exact number of shares ? Would "a few" do ? And why do you even need to confirm emails and addresses sent to you by glbse ?

Its extremely easy: connect display to rig, right click on network icon in taskbar, set your connection to static ip.

The pool operators should allow miners to provide the pool with an ip address where the pool can dial the miner to establish a connection...with a bit of software running on the miner's machine, it would allow the pool to initiate outbound connections to the members of the pool and operate though a bank of ip addresses that shield the pool from these DDOS attacks.
If the pools don't do something like this, then people will start resorting to setting up their own smaller, private pools if these DDOSes continue.
1. dynamic ip's. 2. If ddos if massive enough ip filters wont help. 3. There is lots and lots of small pools, everything is fine. |

i tried to build bitcoin in linux (mint in vm) and it looks like libdb4.8++-dev is only available in squeeze and it depends on libdb4.8-30-2 and mint has libdb4.8-30-9 and lots of stuff depend on it. Going to try to download squeeze vm image tomorrow ...

from nofeemining shoutbox:
06:54 Admin: Rt that number is correct. We are running rsmpps which means you get paid the same amount for each share.

I haven't been able to find it anywhere, but I've read that recent changes have been made to auto-donate to bithopper. And thats fine.
But I cant be able to find any documentation on the % auto-donated . I'm only rockin 225mhs (~190 shares an hour), so I'd just like to know how much I can expect to be out.
Thanks for an awesome program.
edit: My apologies if its somewhere really obvious, I'm really bad at overlooking things.
edit2: Well that makes sense. I'm still using an old source... 2.4+ don't work for me. Running windows 7, got all the new dependencies, just since the updates I've had to go back to an older version.
It currently donates 1%, donations pool is in pools.cfg. |

redirect all incoming transfers to one-time addresses in online service that keeps everything in its own wallets, for example mtgox or tradehill, as opposed to wallet or address per account.

Came back to try linuxcoin again after few weeks. Still as broken and i guess 'final' means no more support ?
vnc works only after opening remote desktop window. persistence works but vnc only starts working after i open that window. which makes it pointless.
wiki instructions on ssh x11 forwarding are out of date / broken / whatever:
sudo xauth merge /home/user/.Xauthority - Xauthority does not exist, on second try it was empty.
it cant install deb's too.
and then i did apt-get update. lol. thats ... long. and it couldn't finish it.
another problem: unetbootin cant download it, tried 3 times, server is too slow or something ? anyway it cant finish download.
edit: I have found likely problem i had, flash drive had second partition with probably old linuxcoin on it, that was probably the reason for all the bugs i had.

How exactly can you accidentally open bithopper page to internet ? Option for authentication is nice if you do but i doubt its necessary unless bithopper automatically opens port in firewalls and uses upnp.

So wait, are you guys saying that bitcoinpool didn't just solve like 5 blocks today? Because its showing up on my unconfirmed rewards . . . .
it did but it reset json round shares counter several times during current block, it should be ~15% right now according to time*speed |
