Did you read it? cause it kinda says that GHash has broken the 50% before
Yes, but they're wrong. Or GHash.IO broke 50% in the same way that other pools have - by solving one block out of two. Or for an hour or two. But not for any significant length of time. The most they've done in a day is 47%, and corrected for 'luck' the best they've done for in any 160-block period is 46% . didn't they do the double spend on a gambling site?

Regardless, you don't need 51% of the network to double spend: https://bitcoil.co.il/Doublespend.pdf

maybe with the difficulty going up and up in future, the bitcoin system will come back to what it was meant to be in the first place, and that is the ordinary smaller miners, but hey what do i know..being a newbie lol

my earning is cut by half  If its on the estimate, it could just be the normal glitch thing the estimate has been doing for a while, hash power is up on the of late normal rise we get, it was 4000 th for a little then it dropped to 3800 now its back up to 3900 atm. I need more hash powers

Dayum! Well this sux! Hopefully the extra hash power we will find at least 30% MORE blocks as IF this keeps up and my estimated reward stays as is...I WILL be finding another "small" pool to mine with, ugh, frustrating!

Could be - or just could be people adding new kit - like me - added 3.6 TH/s to slush today. It's painful when you add new kit during a drought - but I'm patient

It's painful when you add new kit during a drought - but I'm patient  Most likely the extra hashpower is from failovers BUT yes, those mining here SHOULD increase their hashrate as I have but to have that great of an increase overnight is definitely NOT miners adding extra power...definitely failover and/or slush pool received some immigrants from Ghash.io. On another note...slush pool "size" has supposedly dropped 1% according to https://blockchain.info/pools, we were hovering at 4% for the last couple weeks, very strange.

That's because of the current 16+ hour round ... add to that 18+ hour two days ago ... close to 3 blocks per day, which makes us close to 2% for the last 3 days
