A (sincere, ) "thank you" to you both.  blockchain.info several seconds ago let me in after a similar "maximum concurrent requests" note, and I saw it indeed confirmed.

That 13 cents (fee) is an incentive.......

MmmK.  This reinforces, IMO, the idea of either raising the miner's fee to something (perhaps BTC0.0002 or BTC0.0001) and/or minimum transactions of BTC0.001 or BTC0.0005.

Don't worry. The Bitcoin price will in all likelihood come way down. But then, after everyone sees that you can't break Bitcoin, the price will soar back up higher than ever... maybe even in the $1,000 range.

I'm still optimistic that is what will happen the alternative is that people hang out in Litecoin for a while at least that is what seems to be occurring at present nearing $10 USD already.

0.13$ fee is nothing compared to all other payment processors solidrustpay has like $1.5 fee at least

Sorry for your loss man, unfortunately nothing can be done about this, Bitcoin is not a perfect system and the fact that everyone is bound to the network means that anyone could be potentially affected by even a slight modification to the system. There really isn't any point in taking it out on the decision makers, someone's gotta do the dirty job right?

All these 1 transaction block miners can starve for all I care.

[Karpeles]

Getting the same error right now.

Another stress test, or just crap software this time?

Nice thread, agree with the sentiments of the OP.  If someone is pretending to test the network by attacking it, they're attacking it.

However, still glad bitcoin has held up so well.  While increased transaction times and slightly higher fees are a pain, on balance, this has done nothing to question my faith in bitcoin.
