When a pool is down, does my hash rate essentially go wasted, or when the pool goes back up, will my work (that was done when the pool was down) be counted and create bitcoins?  Basically is my work lost, or does it get counted once the server goes back up?
Unlike traditional banking where clients have only a few account numbers, with Bitcoin people can create an unlimited number of accounts (addresses). This can be used to easily track payments, and it improves anonymity.

Is the pool down (your worker is idle), or is the website down (worker is still getting hashes accepted)?

If you wanna make sure this never happens, check my sig. BitMiner has full failover support.

DDOS attacks and hacks. Don't these people want to honestly mine like the rest of us.
Plus it's my first post.
