The fees have not been lowered.  He raised them back up on 6-4.  IT was due to the outage that he had.  Hes back to his normal fees at deepbit.

The hell...there's like only 4 pools left on the pie chart other than Deepbit. Is everyone dying or something?

No, lack of a slice on the pie chart doesn't mean the pool is down. Usually it's just the front end.

Hey guys, I hear BitCoin is changing its name to DeepCoins soon, is it true?

No more BTCs here comes the DPCs.
You can not roll a BitCoin, but you can rollback some. Cheesy

They *could* verify a forged block allowing various addresses to double-spend coins. 

Once the block is verified by their own pool (more than 50% verified it, so it MUST be legit, right?) then they have just "printed money". 

They can repeat that as often as they'd like and there's very little anyone can do, other than drop out of their pool so they drop below 50% of the hashing power of the network, and can no longer forge blocks.

This is the major weakness in Bitcoin creation.
