Yea site down..

But my miners are still connected and sharing..

Does that mean its actually submitting shares tho?

Or best to jump off of zpool?

Its not just zpool that's down.

[minerx117]

yiimp.ccminer , zpool , altminer , hashrefinery are all down

there is an exploit in the yiimp pool software

may not be coming back (for some time) either .....

yimmp zpool and hashrefinery all down may not be coming back either.....

The current situation is that there is an exploit in the yiimp pool software that an unidentified attacker has used to steal multiple currencies from many different pools.

Some pools have partially or completely stopped services until the problem is resolved to prevent the further theft of funds.  Hash Refinery, Zpool and yiimp have taken this approach.  Note I do not speak for the other pool admins.

Some other pools are continuing to operate but risk further theft unless they have mitigated the exploit.  I don't speak for those admins either.

What I can say is that Hash Refinery will be back online when I am sure it can operate securely and make reliable payouts.  The last thing I would want is for users to be sending hash power to the pool but be unable to pay the due rewards.  Hopefully we will not be down for long, but if it does take days or weeks to ensure secure operation then so be it.

Well speaken! Same for us - we are working hard on it to track down this and further vulnerabilities.

Can Cryptopia send back stolen coins to the pools they originated from?

who uses Awesome Miner, do you have a zpool running?

Awesome miner and Nemos miner are not going to work because the front end it down. You'll have to manually config your miners to connect for the time being.

nice, finally I will try out that nicehash thing everybody talks about
see you later, aligators!

[spider703]

Backend mining is working atleast for me but no frontend and no payments so far at hashrefinary.

BTC payouts have been running as normal but some other coins are delayed.

The frontend is online now so you can check your balance.  If you have any concerns please send me a PM.

Hi @hashrefinary.
I have  over 622 ONIONS stuck at your, when can i expect them to be credited to my wallet. I know you must be busy resolving the hacking related issues, your answer will be appreciated.

Hi @maleemk,

I have replied to your PM to discuss options.

TL;DR - ONION balance was stolen in the hack and we haven't mined enough since then to cover the payout.

Cheers
