Anyone notice https://www.btcguild.com/ is down? DOS attack?

Looks like 2.3 has been surpassed: 2,319.07 GH/s

Starts up fine on Windows 8 and seems ok. Doing the block reindexing now. Nice work everyone!

Quick question: Why no more detach database on shutdown?

Edit: Took just under 2 hours on a i5-560m.
Client starts and stops super fast.

Is the old database removed or can I delete something to save space?

Can it be that friedcat now fixed the hashrate to around 2TH/s at btcguild and is running the rest solomining? Can this be found out?

If the other 10 TH was running, you'd notice it in the overall network hash-rate very quickly.  You can't hide 10 TH in the current network, whether you're mining solo or through pools

I didnt mean 10TH, but its strange that it remains at this level now. Im not sure but the part of solominers looks bigger to me now than before. And if they bring the hardware online in the same speed like with btcguild they probably are around 3TH/s at the moment in total only or so.
He called the previous btcguild deployment "stress test" inferring that it might not be the start of a full deployment. There could be many reasons for that, some being : not at the permanent emplacement, temporary setup for easy access and manipulation, software setup... The list goes on.

Nonetheless, every second is $$

Given that the rate fluctuated and he knew the failure rate was <5%, could they have tested everything but not yet powered everything on all at once? Maybe they are waiting for the next difficulty change to put everything online? It might make sense to not move the difficulty up given that it is changing in 48 hours.
706  Economy / Securities / Re: ASICMINER: Entering the Future of ASIC Mining by Inventing It on: February 15, 2013, 05:29:35 PM
Looks like the stress test is ending, hashrate has dropped to 1.871 TH/s as of right now

19 blocks wasn't a bad effort for a first test run.

Up to 27 now! But the rate is hovering around 2,133.16 GH/s.

Update

Dear shareholders,

Thanks for the update friedcat! Is there a schedule for the deployment of the remaining hashing power? Will it go to other pools and if so how can we see the total current hash rate?

Congratulations on the <5% failure rate. Can we expect the entire 12Thash online soon?

No doubt the ASICs caught fire. This proves it! I am very sorry for everyone so am willing to buy shares at .15 BTC per share Wink Cheesy

Edit: Back to 2,154.41 GH/s

A rudimentary script to help you guys cheer on ASICMINER:

Code:
#!/usr/bin/ruby

require 'net/http'
require 'date'

current_hash_rate = 0.00
max_hash_rate = 0.00

loop do
    begin
        url = URI.parse('https://www.btcguild.com//halloffame.php')
        http = Net::HTTP.new(url.host, url.port)
        http.use_ssl = true
        request = Net::HTTP::Get.new(url.path)
        response = http.start {|http| http.request(request)}
        case response
        when Net::HTTPSuccess then source = response.body
        else
            puts "Error in HTTP connection"
            next
        end
        match_string = '<td>67117</td><td style="text-align: right;">'
        source = source[(source.index(match_string) + match_string.length)..-1]
        match_string = ' GH/s</td>'
        source = source[0...(source.index(match_string))]
        source.gsub! ',', ''
        hash_rate = source.to_f
        if hash_rate != current_hash_rate
            max_hash_rate = [max_hash_rate, hash_rate].max
            current_hash_rate = hash_rate
            puts "#{DateTime.now}:\t current #{"%.2f" % current_hash_rate}\t max #{"%.2f" % max_hash_rate}"
        end
        sleep 10.0
    rescue
        next
    end
end

Awesome, thanks! Yes I have been cheering them on too  Grin

Up to 17 blocks now.
711  Economy / Securities / Re: ASICMINER: Entering the Future of ASIC Mining by Inventing It on: February 14, 2013, 10:05:59 PM
pretty sure the stated plan is to balance the hashrate between a group of pools..

Well, that's my point. That's the plan, but it hasn't happened with the first 2 TH/s, so what will make it happen with the next 10TH/s? He's got a working pool and shareholders wanting an ROI, if BTCGuild works, there's no incentive to contact any other pool ops. Maybe he's working on it. No, let me rephrase that, hopefully he's working on it.

I just don't want this to be Deepbit circa Winter-Spring 2011 version 2. We had about ten threads a day on a conspiracy roll about how Deepbit was double-spending. It got so bad Tycho had to make a bounty (I think piuk collected it) for double-spend tracking.

Excellent point. ROI is contingent on bitcoin remaining strong which means the network itself isn't attacked successfully so it is in our interest even as greedy shareholders to distribute the load even though it will take extra time.

friedcat is really working hard; the power continues to grow.  It's up to a high of 2112 GH/s now.

Does it make sense to bring everything online now given the difficulty adjustment which will happen? I guess yes given (eventual) competition, and it is all about % of hashing power controlled.
713  Economy / Securities / Re: ASICMINER: Entering the Future of ASIC Mining by Inventing It on: February 14, 2013, 06:15:27 PM
I'm making a note here, huge success.

It's hard to oooover-state my sat-is-faction.

Congratulations everyone! Thanks to friedcat and the team for all of the amazing work!
714  Economy / Securities / Re: [Investment fund] Gamma Bitcoin Fund [Closing] on: February 14, 2013, 05:00:44 AM
That's right, 16% of initial investment. But price/BTC since then has doubled, at least.
Good luck with recovering our funds. Can you please tell us what's the status of Gigamining shares?
Thanks Smiley
I am currently working on providing the information necessary to claim the shares.
Then I will send it in to James and claim the shares and the dividends

Hi DT,
Could you transfer my portion of my ASICMINER shares to me?

Thanks!
715  Economy / Securities / Re: ASICMINER: Entering the Future of ASIC Mining by Inventing It on: February 13, 2013, 09:54:49 PM
Especially, this being a race, why wait to announce the winner 5 days after the race is over?
Because it's so much more EXCITING to watch people's blood pressure go through the roof in speculation and anticipation!

It is quite fun to watch the drama in the threads heat up with speculation and accusations.  These companies have your money already.  They've funded their development/production.  No amount of news posts will speed up the process or decrease the chances of it being a scam.  If they deliver, people will be lined up to throw money at them no matter how badly they acted on the first batch.

Step back, take a breath, relax Smiley.

I would assume its ASICMINER since eleuthria seems to be much more active in this thread than the Avalon threads lately....

Not sure if I'm happy about it or not, I own some ASICMINER, but also have a few Avalon batch 2 orders...

Honestly, I never spent much time posting in the Avalon or BFL threads.  I'm more of a lurker in the Custom Hardware threads because almost everything in them is trolling.  I tend to load the thread and look to see any new trollpics, then close it.  I came here because it got linked in my pool thread, and I've been working on being more active in threads other than my own this year [mostly because the pool has been stable lately, to the point there isn't much being said on the thread anymore].

That confirms it! Cheesy Wink
716  Economy / Securities / Re: ASICMINER: Entering the Future of ASIC Mining by Inventing It on: February 13, 2013, 07:55:00 PM
And there is now:

Rank User Estimated Speed
1   67117   1,324.19 GH/s


- http://www.btcguild.com/halloffame.php

My estimate puts that at about 20 Avalons.

Or, something else.

10% more online now: 1,481.42 GH/s

It's night in China so if it is ASICMINER they are up working late... which would be the thing to do!

I just registered a BTC Guild user and got a user ID only just above 67117 so they are a relatively new user (I guess we already knew this). Sorry speculation is fun.

718  Economy / Securities / Re: ASICMINER: Entering the Future of ASIC Mining by Inventing It on: February 13, 2013, 06:20:45 AM
1.1TH,  Shocked..... and rising....

Where can you see this number?
Thanks!

Edit: It must be here: https://www.btcguild.com/halloffame.php
1:23AM EST User 67117, 1,053.30 GH/s
719  Economy / Securities / Re: [Investment fund] Gamma Bitcoin Fund [Closing] on: February 13, 2013, 06:18:45 AM
I have processed all payments,
If you haven't received yours please send me a message and I will investigate further.
//DeaDTerra

I got the BTC, Thanx!
Keep up the good work!

And I hope you get the gigamining claimed soon, I got my quickly as I sent all the signed papers (photographed with my phone) in an e-mail to the lawyer.
Got mine too, thanks!
720  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC prise isnt rising! USD is loosing value, thats all! on: February 08, 2013, 05:03:28 PM
If the USD lost 50% of its value in 1 month I wouldn't like to be working in law enforcement.

If the USD loses 50% of its value in 1 month we will ALL be working in law enforcement Cheesy
