Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the
subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The
subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

Hmm I don't get how you can mine at all? I can't even type a command in the shell at this point.

ozcoin is down too. Could it be a DDoS attack? most other big pools appear to be working though.

Yeah, there's no such thing as a free lunch. Now the terrible long block, and server getting overloaded.  At least it's running well again now. |

The pool back end was taking a lot more requests than usual. For a while it was eating 10 times as much CPU as it normally does. Memory usage was on the rise. Miners couldn't get work fast enough, and we could see much more rejected proofs of work than normal. But it was still sluggishly moving along. After a while of this the load suddenly shot through the roof and the server was almost completely dead. I guess it's time to invest in a bigger server. Good to see we got 2 BTC blocks. Well deserved with that long block and all the trouble today. |

Don't talk, Dragon, lest you scare them away. Be ready to grab them blocks while I scare them out of their lairs and drive them your way! Come on, at least one block more today... |

I want to donate to the pool for better server. Who is with me? Who will pledge coin to this great pool so we can make 200 Ghash/s before the end of next year? I have 5 pledged now.
