Nothing until someone verifies a forged chain. Then its over (well, for now. to appease the long-term visionaries).
If a forged chain is verified wont a good portion of deepbit just move to a different mining pool to protect the security of bitcoin as a whole? Not likely. They don't check the forum... ever. |

It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

If I helped you in some way, and you feel obligated to do so, you can tip me some coin!

Of course it is. Anyone mining at deepbit is doing their part to create an unhealthy network. |

So you'll end everything because you need instant gratification? This is why it's gonna be a long road to the future. |

Ya know, Bitcoins are increasing in value. If you don't sell them right away you might actually make some extra money... |

Why would you want PPS? PPS gives you the LEAST amount of money, plus Deepbit charges 10% fee on PPS!! You can go to pools like btcguild, if you donate 2.5%, they give you instant payout as well. That beats the 10% fee by a lot -.- |

Isn't that probably an edge case? 2 hours is a long round for deepbit, I believe. The AVERAGE round length almost certainly results in a worse payout for PPS. Mathematically isn't not possible that PPS with a 10% fee is better. And unless you're in a tiny pool or only care about hour by hour amounts, the variance for non-PPS doesn't seem like enough to be a problem. |

Then obviously, you have not been mining for very long, and or do not know about variance. You cannot compare PPS and Prop like this from ONE ROUND. At the very least compare for a week and then see. |

They are having server issues right now, they are getting new ones on Wed. and Thurs. to deal with the load. Switch to Swepool or some other pool for now. This is pretty bad..btcmine down, btcguild down, bitcoins.lc down, everyone is flocking to deepbit. Not helping the situation. |

There are lots of pools just pick anyone of them but Deepbit. Network security should be your #1 concern.

Sadly, for other people it isnt. Well, they are being silly. Why tempt fate when it's so easy to avoid such problems? Bitcoin may survive an attack, but will the public ever regain their trust? Let's not cut off our nose in spite of our face. |
