I think you're block explorer has some bugs.  There are many inconsistencies.

yes, you are right, mostly due to sync-problems via the api but the new version seems much better now,
as soon the blockchain and api is more stable the explorer will work proper.

My clients not updating it's stuck on November 24th at 7am!

[alexrussel1980]

my client crashed and stuck on block 0

[nexern]

i see many bad peers with similar ip addresses traced to netherland.
perhaps and attack?

edit: yes, i think so.

if you mean 178.239.62.100 it's not attack that's my vps  it's on 0.2.19 but nothing works

What base target (the little red and white target icon) do you see?  I see tens of thousand of percent.

Also, the block explorer shows the base target increasing dramatically:

Moreover, you have accounts with relatively low balances mining several blocks in a row.

Umm... what is going on here?  Is the block explorer broken OR is the network broken?!?

mines 12000%+

exploit??

no, it's not your ip. there are 10+ starting with 109.201.XXX with bad time sync in my peer list and my node is gone.

[nexern]

i have seen these ip's some days before, doing the same.
unfortunatly cfb's bs-server is gone too.

[Chang Hum]

The client doesn't make sense to me, what if two people use the same passphrase or common words are entered until a match is found... wouldn't that just open up someone else's wallet?

[nexern]

exploit??

don't think so, they are just shooting at our nodes but even with this low base target they need
coins to use this and i don't see sense in this.

Yeah, don't pick a stupid short password.

[Chang Hum]

That's not a very clever design!!

[nexern]

this is a brainwallet, common words are not the right place to use as a passphrase in this context.

[nexern]

That's not a very clever design!!

think again, this design is very clever. 

[Chang Hum]

No but what happens if 100000 people use it more than 1 persons going to use the same phrase or word

[xibeijan]

That's not a very clever design!!

think again, this design is very clever. 

I agree.  You never need to worry about losing your wallet.  It's the next step and solves an old bitcoin problem.

[Chang Hum]

But what happens if two people choose the same word or phrase?
