When like today? Because I just made some nmc..

Are you removing NMC?

Yes, Stratum backend (93% of hashrate and rising) isn't merged mining namecoins now.

I'm sorry for pool instability in recent hour, I was fighting botnets and I needed to restart pool for few times. Now it should be fine again.

When the pool goes down and back up, bfgminer does not reconnect and I have to restart bfgminer to get it going again.

I'm using 2.9.10 and connecting to stratum.bitcoin.cz.  Is there something I should be doing differently?

Thanks!

[crashoveride54902]

yes use a newer miner like cgminer

I use a script that queries my JSON key to see if my miner is active and restart the service if its not.  I'd be happy to post it if anyone cares?  It is more for my hardware/software instability, but would work I think in the case that a miner doesn't reconnect after a pool restart.

https://mining.bitcoin.cz is not reachable, when will it be back?

[bitpop]

Works here

[bjf]

really? I meen, http://bitcoin.cz works fine, but http://mining.bitcoin.cz doesn't. Is my IP blocked? Does anyone else has the same problem?

[ZephramC]

I have no problem accessing mining.bitcoin.cz.

[bjf]

I don't understand whats going on. Even with hidemyass.com I can't access mining.boitcoin.cz. The same with my smartphone.
The problem is, I want to see my mining stats - and I'm afraid, my mining rig is also blocked.

[Istie]

Just visited http://blog.bitcoin.cz/bitcoin-chat/ because i had the same problem. The answer i was getting: seems to be a peering issue of some ISPs, especially if you're looking from NL. Hopefully it will soon be over

[bjf]

Thank you - it it is good to be not allone with such aproblem, I am looking from Germany. Seems, the internet is broken 

[bjf]

ahhh - by the way, everythink is working again from my site

It works all time, but it looks like some peering issues on internet. The good thing is that stratum.bitcoin.cz works, because it is on another location.

Please update to lastest cgminer, it has much better network layer and it can reconnect correctly.

Hi all, I am sorry if that was covered somewhere - thread is very long...

I am wondering what is the transaction fee for sending bitcoins from pool to wallet?

Also is it proportional to the amount that is being sent or is that fixed fee for transaction?

Thank you!

[slush]

There's no fee.

[OlgaA524]

There's no fee.

Great!

I was also wondering if people that are solving the block are receiving extra award or they are treated as any other miner during the round?

"No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it"

Using GUIminer, been mining seven months straight, first time I've seen this message

Is it the server or an issue on my end?

[slush]

Is it the server or an issue on my end?

This one was a glitch on server side, it's fine now.

Watch this:

http://www.ltc-charts.com/period-charts.php?period=3-months&resolution=day&pair=ltc-btc&market=btc-e
(be patient it takes about 5 seconds for the chart to display)

mining LTC is now 5.35 times more profitable than mining BTC. Temporary, I'm sure of that... but..

slush - maybe it wouldn't be too much hassle for you to duplicate a whole single server on another IP and run litecoin on the backend. So that we could mine LTCs on your server instead of mining on some random pools?
