Hi guys.

I've signed up to Ghash.io, adding the pool to my miner and its mining yet I can't see it online.  Worker tab keeps timing out?

Anyone else experience this?

Ta..

You're really going to mine at ghash.io? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=327767.0

You're really going to continue allowing Butterfly Labs to advertise here ?

You're really going to continue allowing Cex.io to advertise here ?

*Mumbles something about Luke-Jr abusing his pool to destroy altcoins*

Speaking of fail, on ghash.io right now;

Why do you think I have any control over these things? I have the ability to delete, move, pin and lock threads, and edit posts in a couple subforums and to whitelist newbies— thats it. (though— at the same time, if I did, its far from clear to me that taking their money where it can be funneled to productive uses is a bad idea. Crappy businesses are going to exist regardless... and no one could hope to screen them all out in any case. Caveat emptor, etc.)

I hear ya and thanks for the link.  It's quite worrying.

I chose Ghash.io due to the ability of making a guest account that's read only + the gui is nice.

My next choice was Eligius.

What would you recommend?

IMO, you really can't go wrong with BTCGuild. I've been pondering heading back there myself after all this ghash.io speculation. Doesn't leave me with a warm fuzzy feeling.

To their credit though, their support is very good, pool is solid, but my spider sense is tingling while mining at that pool Sad

That, and my gut is telling me the cex.io GHs pricing is being manipulated by staff with "fake" orders.

Most people in your position, NineLives, I've seen them use screenshots from BTCGuild.

Emm..  I'm selling hardware very very soon (mininghardware.co.uk)  and people require proof.  Ghash.io is nice in that sense.

As much as the issue with a single pool having too much of the collective hash power bothers me, ghash works better. It's slick, and my miners payout more with ghash. Tough to argue with that.

I think it's pretty easy to argue with that:  When the consolidation of hashpower at a party who is apparently willing to allow it to be used to rob others and profit undermines confidence in Bitcoin by basically disproving the security model— what are the coins you mine going to be worth?

So why is it down? Again.  Roll Eyes

You could go on to their "support" thread & ask them - but they won't answer you.

I was having Cloudflare errors yesterday, but when it came back there were changes to the ghash.io homepage.   Hosted mining was dead this morning, but it came back about an hour ago and caught up (I have ~15GH hosted, it was mining at 512GH for a few minutes to bring the 1d average back to where it should be).

If the security model is disproven and Bitcoin is indeed busted and therefore collapses, then it doesn't matter what I do.  So I'm going to pick the nicest chair on the deck of the Titanic!

if CEX is being bad, now everyone will know it and someone will copy the scam process until no one can.  If this kills CEX then I'll switch.

For now, they have the nicest pool.

looks ghash.io is having problems, I have about 15 GHS total and it's showing less than 1 GHs. Hope it's just a little glitch in the system.

on further examining, it looks like the cex workers are down but my own (non-hosted) workers are reporting correct hashrate, so the problem is at cex.io and not the ghash.io pool. I know cex.io frontend is working fine, their hardware miners are having problems or there's a network problem. I just hope someone is monitoring the situation and is taking actions, christmas or not. Yes, I am a heartless ass.

I see ghash.io as the single bigest threat to bitcoin that exist today.

Cryptography is one of the few things you can truly trust.
